77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A highly actionable, clearly sequenced procedural skill with strong validation checkpoints, but it is monolithic and longer than it needs to be due to restated principles and inline detail that could be split out. Progressive disclosure is the weakest area.
Suggestions
Dedupe the 'Core Principles', step bodies, and 'Key Constraints' sections — state each rule once (e.g., 'no fixed dimension lists', binary criteria, mandatory dedup) and cross-reference rather than restating, to tighten conciseness.
Extract the detailed per-step output-format specs and scoring standard into a reference file (e.g. references/RET_FORMAT.md), keeping SKILL.md as a lean overview that links one level deep, to improve progressive disclosure.
Move the BibTeX citation block to a references/CITATION.md file or a short footnote, so the operational body stays focused on the workflow.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Largely procedural and necessary, but ~350 lines with redundancy — 'No fixed dimension lists', binary criteria, and deduplication are restated across 'Core Principles', the step bodies, and 'Key Constraints', and the Algorithm Overview re-explains the steps that follow. Score 3 is barred by the repetition; score 1 is too harsh given the content is mostly task-specific, not generic concept padding. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully concrete guidance: exact expansion round counts (3/4/3), a 10-step + Phase B checklist, named output fields, and a specific scoring standard (positive 1-10, negative -1 to -10) — copy-paste ready, matching the score-3 anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear sequenced workflow with a copyable progress checklist and explicit review/consolidation checkpoints (Steps 5, 8, 9, 10) that act as feedback loops (expand -> review -> fix), matching the score-3 anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Single monolithic file with no bundle files or external references; sections are well-organized (ruling out score 1) but content that could be split — detailed output-format specs, the citation block, expansion-round mechanics — is kept inline, fitting the score-2 anchor better than score 3 which expects one-level-deep references. | 2 / 3 |
