turborepo-monorepo
Configure pipelines, set up local/remote caching, and run scoped tasks in a Turborepo monorepo. Use when you say: 'enable remote caching', 'optimize pipeline inputs/outputs', or 'filter builds to affected packages'.

Quality
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 a strong skill description that clearly identifies the tool (Turborepo), lists specific capabilities, and provides explicit trigger phrases. The only minor issue is the use of second person 'you say' in the trigger clause, which should use third person voice per the rubric guidelines, though this is a relatively small stylistic concern. The description is concise, specific, and well-differentiated.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'Configure pipelines', 'set up local/remote caching', and 'run scoped tasks in a Turborepo monorepo'. These are clear, actionable capabilities. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (configure pipelines, set up caching, run scoped tasks) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause with specific trigger phrases like 'enable remote caching', 'optimize pipeline inputs/outputs', 'filter builds to affected packages'). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes natural keywords users would say: 'remote caching', 'pipeline inputs/outputs', 'filter builds', 'affected packages', 'Turborepo', 'monorepo'. These are terms a developer working with Turborepo would naturally use. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive with clear niche targeting Turborepo monorepos specifically. Terms like 'Turborepo', 'pipeline inputs/outputs', and 'affected packages' are unique to this tool and unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid, actionable skill with executable commands, clear pipeline configuration, and a well-structured CI setup workflow with validation. Its main weaknesses are moderate verbosity (some sections repeat or explain concepts Claude already knows) and references to a REFERENCE.md that doesn't exist in the bundle. The content would benefit from trimming redundant sections and ensuring referenced files are provided.
Suggestions
Remove or significantly trim the 'Package Workspace Structure' and 'Key Concepts' sections — Claude already understands these patterns and they consume tokens without adding unique value.
Either provide the referenced REFERENCE.md file or remove the references to it to avoid dead-end navigation.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Generally efficient with good use of code blocks and concise explanations. However, some sections like 'Key Concepts' explain things Claude likely already knows (e.g., what dependsOn means), and the 'Package Workspace Structure' section is standard boilerplate that doesn't add much value. The best practices section partially repeats earlier content. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable commands, a complete turbo.json configuration example, concrete bash commands for every operation, and specific filter patterns. The forbidden commands section with clear alternatives is particularly actionable. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 'Quick Workflow: Setup remote caching in CI' section provides a clear numbered sequence with a validation step (--dry-run) and a feedback loop for cache misses (verify inputs/outputs, re-run). The forbidden commands section acts as a guardrail. Multi-step processes are well-sequenced. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | References REFERENCE.md twice for CI snippets and advanced cache tuning, which is good progressive disclosure. However, no bundle files are provided so REFERENCE.md doesn't actually exist, and some inline content (like the workspace structure and full best practices list) could be offloaded. The skill is somewhat long for what could be a more concise overview with references. | 2 / 3 |
