Validation for skill structure
Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is an excellent skill description that excels across all dimensions. It provides specific actions, comprehensive trigger terms covering many Azure resource types and natural user phrasings, explicit 'USE FOR' and 'DO NOT USE FOR' sections that clearly define scope, and references to alternative skills to prevent conflicts. The description effectively enables Claude to select this skill appropriately from a large skill library.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'List, find, and show Azure resources' with detailed examples like 'list my VMs', 'show my storage accounts', 'find container apps', 'find orphaned resources', 'count resources by type', 'cross-subscription resource query'. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both what ('List, find, and show Azure resources') and when with explicit 'USE FOR:' and 'DO NOT USE FOR:' sections that provide comprehensive trigger guidance and boundary conditions. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural terms users would say including variations: 'list VMs', 'list virtual machines', 'show resources', 'find resources', 'what resources do I have', plus specific resource types like 'storage accounts', 'Key Vaults', 'SQL servers', 'container registries'. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive with clear boundaries - explicitly states 'DO NOT USE FOR: deploying resources (use azure-deploy), creating or modifying resources, cost optimization (use azure-cost-optimization)' which prevents conflicts with related Azure skills. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 12 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured skill with strong actionability and clear workflow guidance. The routing table for MCP tools is particularly valuable for decision-making. Minor verbosity in the 'When to Use' section and some redundancy with the skill description prevent a perfect conciseness score, but overall this skill effectively teaches Claude how to handle Azure resource lookup queries.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is mostly efficient but includes some redundancy - the 'When to Use This Skill' section largely duplicates information from the description, and the routing table in Step 1 could be more compact. The Quick Reference table is helpful but some content feels slightly padded. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, executable guidance with specific CLI commands, MCP tool invocations with exact parameters, and clear examples. The workflow steps are actionable with copy-paste ready commands like `az graph query -q "<KQL>" -o table`. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear 3-step workflow with explicit decision points (check dedicated tool → generate query → execute). The routing table provides clear guidance on when to use ARG vs dedicated tools. Error handling table provides feedback loop for common failures. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-structured with clear sections, tables for quick reference, and appropriate external reference to detailed KQL patterns in `references/azure-resource-graph.md`. Content is appropriately split between overview and detailed reference material. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 11 / 12 Passed |
