issue-review

Reviews a GitHub issue to determine validity, classify as user error or bug, check if already fixed, and take appropriate action. For user errors, improves error messages and documentation. For real bugs, implements a fix following the full commit workflow including tests and adversarial review. Closes the issue with a clear resolution message. Use when the user says "review issue", "triage issue", "is this a bug", "check issue", "issue review", or provides a GitHub issue URL or number.

Quality

Content

85%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.

A strong, highly actionable workflow skill: concrete commands at every step, well-sequenced steps with classification routing, explicit validation checkpoints and feedback loops, and a pre-close approval gate. The main weaknesses are the single-file monolith (~520 lines with ~150 lines of extractable templates/criteria) and minor redundancy in the Notes section and flowchart.

Suggestions

Extract the six closing-comment templates (Step 8) and the feature-evaluation accept/reject criteria (Step 5) into a references/ file (e.g. closing-templates.md and feature-criteria.md), leaving one-line summaries with links in SKILL.md.

Trim the Notes section by removing bullets that restate body content (commit SHA in closing comment, multiple-problem handling) and merge the Mermaid flowchart's routing into the existing classification tables to save ~40 lines.

Replace the duplicated test-run commands in 6d/6e/7e with a single defined test command referenced from each step.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is largely directive with executable commands, but the 13-bullet Notes section repeats body content ('Reference the commit SHA in the closing comment' vs. templates already containing {sha}) and the Mermaid flowchart re-states the classification routing. These are minor trimmable redundancies — score 4 rather than 5; not 3 because padding is small relative to the whole.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable throughout: exact 'gh issue view'/'gh release list' commands, 'cd mockserver && ./mvnw test -pl {module}' invocations, a Java error-message pattern, commit message formats, and heredoc 'gh issue close' comment templates. Concrete commands cover the common cases, matching the copy-paste-ready top anchor.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Steps 1-8 are clearly sequenced with classification tables giving explicit 'Next Step' routing and a flowchart, plus explicit feedback loops ('If the review returns BLOCK, fix the issues, re-run validations, and re-run the review'; 'fix the code and re-run until all tests pass') and a user-approval gate before closing. Not a destructive/batch skill, so the validation cap does not apply.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

No bundle files exist; everything is inlined in a single ~520-line SKILL.md. Section headers and navigation are good and external project references are signaled, but ~150 lines (the six closing-comment templates in Step 8 and the feature-evaluation criteria in Step 5) clearly belong in separate reference files. This matches 'some structure... content that should be separate is inline' — not 4 because the gap exceeds 'minor organization gaps', not 2 because headers and routing make navigation easy and the workflow core belongs inline.

Description

100%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.

An exemplary description: concrete multi-action capability statement, fully explicit 'Use when' triggers phrased as natural user utterances, and a clearly distinct niche. Third person voice is used consistently. No weaknesses to flag.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'determine validity, classify as user error or bug, check if already fixed', 'improves error messages and documentation', 'implements a fix following the full commit workflow including tests and adversarial review', 'Closes the issue with a clear resolution message' — comprehensively covering the skill's capabilities. No meaningful coverage gaps, so it matches the top anchor rather than score 4.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (detailed capability list) and 'when' via a clear "Use when the user says..." clause with concrete trigger phrases. The 'when' clause is fully explicit, matching the score-5 anchor rather than score 4 where the 'when' would be less specific.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Triggers — "review issue", "triage issue", "is this a bug", "check issue", "issue review", or a GitHub issue URL or number — are natural phrasings users would actually say, including the colloquial 'is this a bug'. Coverage is comprehensive for this domain, matching the top anchor rather than score 4.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The GitHub-issue-triage niche is clearly carved out with domain-specific triggers ('triage issue', 'is this a bug'), distinct from code-review or PR skills. Conflict risk is minimal, matching the score-5 anchor.
