Quality

Content

71%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is well-structured for a simple single-purpose skill and gives concrete, actionable formatting guidance with a worked example. Its main weakness is redundant restatement of the description in the Purpose and Usage sections, which adds tokens without new information.

Suggestions

Collapse the Purpose and Usage sections or fold them into a single concise intro, since they restate the frontmatter description.

Trim explanatory padding like 'allowing users to quickly grasp the key details... without having to parse through raw data' that Claude can infer.

Add one short worked example showing a small rendered table (header + 1-2 rows) so the expected output format is unambiguous.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The content is mostly efficient but the Purpose and Usage sections largely restate the frontmatter description, and phrases like 'allowing users to quickly grasp the key details... without having to parse through raw data' are unnecessary padding.

3 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete, executable formatting rules and a specific example ('[#123](https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/123)') with clear guidance on column selection based on the query, with only minor gaps.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The single render-to-table task is unambiguous with clear rules for field selection and formatting; as a simple non-destructive display skill it lacks explicit verification but does not require destructive-operation validation.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

This is a simple skill under 50 lines with no need for external references, and it is organized into clear sections (Purpose, Usage, How to Render), satisfying the simple-skill exception for progressive disclosure.

Description

78%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description clearly communicates both the skill's purpose and its trigger condition with a concrete 'Use when'-style clause. It is mostly specific and distinctive, though it describes a single action and could include more natural synonym triggers.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (GitHub search query results) and one concrete action (summarize/render into a markdown table), but coverage is limited to a single action rather than multiple specific ones.

3 / 5

Completeness

Clearly states what it does ('Summarizes the results of a GitHub search query in a human friendly markdown table') and when to use it ('ALWAYS use this skill when displaying the results of a GitHub search query') with a concrete trigger phrase.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural trigger phrases like 'GitHub search query' and 'displaying the results of a GitHub search query' that users would say, though synonyms like 'search issues' or 'search PRs' are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The niche of rendering GitHub search results into a markdown table is fairly distinct with a specific trigger, though it could marginally overlap with general GitHub listing or issue-viewing skills.
