grove-create

Create a new tested code example in the Grove platform. Use when the user asks to "create a code example", "add a new example", "scaffold a Grove example", "new tested example for docs", "create an example for [language]", or wants to add a tested, snippeted code example for MongoDB documentation. Covers Python (PyMongo), Go, Java (Sync Driver), JavaScript (Node.js Driver), C#, and Mongosh (MongoDB Shell).

Content

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, highly actionable skill for a complex multi-language code example creation workflow. Its 12-step process includes appropriate confirmation gates, discovery steps, and a robust verification loop with retry limits. The main weakness is moderate verbosity in some explanatory sections (routing logic, data strategy prompts), though this is partially justified by the complexity of the task and the need to prevent misrouting between similar language suites.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is lengthy but most content is necessary for a complex multi-step, multi-language workflow. Some sections could be tightened — e.g., the Mongosh vs JavaScript and C# vs EF Core routing explanations are somewhat verbose, and the data strategy prompt template could be more concise. However, given the complexity of the task, most tokens earn their place.

2 / 3

Actionability

The skill provides highly concrete, actionable guidance: specific directory paths per language in a table, exact file naming patterns, specific commands for verification, clear decision criteria (e.g., when to add to existing test file vs create new), and references to specific template files (e.g., 'examples/example-stub.js'). The subagent validation prompt is copy-paste ready.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The 12-step workflow is clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints: Step 2 requires user confirmation before proceeding, Step 4 checks for existing examples, Step 11 launches a reviewer subagent with a retry loop (max 3 attempts), and idempotency is verified by running tests twice. Error recovery is well-defined with clear stopping conditions.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill effectively references external convention files (`references/conventions-{language}.md`, `references/bluehawk-tags.md`, language-specific CLAUDE.md files) and other skills (`/grove-test`, `/grove-run`, `/grove-migrate`, etc.) without inlining their content. References are one level deep and clearly signaled. The body stays at the orchestration level while delegating details to referenced files.

Description

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 clearly communicates what the skill does (creates tested code examples for MongoDB documentation on the Grove platform), when to use it (with explicit trigger phrases), and what it covers (six specific language drivers). It uses third-person voice, is concise yet comprehensive, and has strong distinctiveness due to the specific platform and domain references.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists concrete actions ('Create a new tested code example'), specifies the platform ('Grove platform'), and enumerates supported languages (Python/PyMongo, Go, Java, JavaScript/Node.js, C#, Mongosh). Multiple specific capabilities are clearly stated.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (create a new tested code example in the Grove platform for MongoDB documentation) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when...' clause with multiple trigger phrases and scenarios).

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Excellent coverage of natural trigger phrases: 'create a code example', 'add a new example', 'scaffold a Grove example', 'new tested example for docs', 'create an example for [language]'. These are phrases users would naturally say, and language-specific terms add further coverage.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive with a clear niche: Grove platform, MongoDB documentation, tested/snippeted code examples. The combination of platform name, specific languages, and domain (MongoDB docs) makes it very unlikely to conflict with other skills.
