78%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 tight, well-structured instruction-only skill: concrete tool-call parameters, a clear default procedure, sensible credential-handling rules, and an explicit docs-failure fallback. Its weaknesses are minor — a redundant opening paragraph, underspecified 'search'/'read' actions, and no explicit verification that the chosen page answers the question.
Suggestions
Delete or compress the opening paragraph, which restates the frontmatter description almost verbatim.
Specify when and how to use the 'search' and 'read' actions (their parameters and an example call), since step 1 defers to them for tighter control.
Add an explicit verification checkpoint, e.g., 'confirm the returned page covers the named credentialType before answering; if not, re-run search with the credentialType as the query'.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean with no padding or explanations of concepts Claude already knows, but the opening paragraph ('Use this skill when the user asks how to configure...') nearly duplicates the frontmatter description and could be trimmed. Fits anchor 4 ('efficient; minor instances of over-explanation that could be trimmed') rather than the every-token-earns-its-place quality of anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is concrete: the exact call 'n8n-docs(action="lookup")', 'intent: "credential-setup"', five named context fields, and a precise citation format. Minor gaps remain — the 'search' and 'read' actions are named but their parameters and when to prefer them are unspecified, and no example call is shown. Anchor 4 ('mostly executable guidance ... with minor gaps'), not 5. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear ordered 4-step procedure plus an explicit failure-recovery section ('If docs lookup fails, say that current docs could not be loaded'). No destructive or batch operations, so the validation cap does not apply, but there is no explicit checkpoint confirming the correct page was selected before answering beyond 'read the returned document snippets'. Fits anchor 4 ('clear sequence with most checkpoints present; minor validation gaps') rather than 5's explicit validate/retry loop. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, needs no external reference files, and is organized into well-labeled sections (Default Procedure, Credential Setup, Missing Docs) that are easy to navigate. Per the rubric guideline for simple skills with no need for external references, this matches anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
