82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-engineered, highly actionable skill body: clear mode detection, a sequenced four-phase workflow, mode-gated progressive disclosure, and concrete output templates. Main gaps are mild redundancy between the composition table and the quick-reference deferral list, the absence of an explicit output-validation step, and referenced rule/template files that could not be verified in the bundle.
Suggestions
Merge the "What this skill defers" quick-reference list into the Phase 3 composition table (or vice versa) to remove the duplicated ownership/deferral mapping.
Add an explicit final validation step in Phase 4, e.g. re-reading generated code to confirm named tokens were applied and that deferred /ux checks (contrast, size minimums) are listed rather than silently dropped.
Ensure the referenced rules/*.md and templates/direction-brief.md files ship with the skill, since the entire detailed guidance depends on them loading successfully.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is a lean, table-driven index that assumes Claude's competence (no basic design-concept explanations), but the ownership/deferral mapping is stated twice — in the Phase 3 composition table and again in the "What this skill defers" quick reference — and the quick-reference section partially restates the opening. Not 5 because those redundant passages could be trimmed; not 3 because the padding is minor. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is fully executable for an instruction skill: concrete commands ("git diff --name-only HEAD~1"), exact per-mode rule-file load tables, exact sibling-skill invocations with fallback behavior ("log one line ... and continue"), and copy-paste output templates (build sheet, review severity ladder with file:line and named-principle citation requirements). | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Four phases are clearly sequenced (context discovery → load rules → compose with siblings → output) with useful checkpoints ("State the detected mode and target in one line", "If ambiguous, ask", "Do not review or generate code you have not read") and explicit error paths for missing skills. Not 5 because there is no explicit output-validation step or feedback loop (e.g. re-checking that recommended tokens were actually applied in generated code). | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The thin-index design is exemplary — references are one level deep, clearly signaled, and gated by mode with an explicit "Do not pre-load all rules" instruction. Scored 4 rather than 5 because the referenced files (rules/style-directions.md, rules/brand-identity.md, templates/direction-brief.md, etc.) are not present in the bundle, so the reference targets cannot be verified. | 4 / 5 |
