Clear due memory reviews with free recall — the two-minute habit that makes learning permanent. Use when reviews are due, or the user wants to review, practice, or "do my engram reviews".

Content

81%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.

An expert-grade, highly actionable review-session skill with excellent command coverage, explicit validation/feedback loops, and clean one-level-deep referencing. Its main weakness is conciseness: heavy rationale and citation asides inflate the body and could be trimmed or deferred to the referenced docs.

Suggestions

Move the behavioral-rationale and citation asides (e.g. Silverman & Barasch 2023, Deci/Koestner/Ryan 1999, the v0.8.1 durability narrative) into the referenced docs and keep SKILL.md to the operational steps and their rules.

Trim version-history parentheticals ("since v0.8.1", "v1.14 §5.6 finding") — they are time-sensitive context that does not help execute a review and penalize token efficiency.

Consider splitting the long amnesty/return-after-absence block into its own reference file (e.g. skills/_shared/amnesty.md) so the per-session flow stays scannable.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is dense and mostly efficient for an expert operator, but it carries substantial rationale padding, citation asides, and version-history commentary ("since v0.8.1", "v1.14 §5.6 finding", Silverman & Barasch 2023) that competes with the operational steps and could be tightened or pushed to references.	3 / 5
Actionability	Fully executable guidance throughout: concrete bash blocks (session-start, due --cap, rate with --production-file, edit-node), exact flag usage, and copy-paste-ready commands covering the common cases.	5 / 5
Workflow Clarity	A clear four-step sequence (Load queue → Per item → Assessor audit → Close) with explicit validation checkpoints — "FAIL CLOSED", "Write the file first", the edit-node repair loop, error-class retry on version skew — and feedback loops for batch/destructive operations.	5 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Structure is good and references are one level deep and clearly signaled (skills/_shared/dialogue-grammar.md, subagents.md, problem-grammar.md; docs/05-affective-layers.md, docs/16), though several large rationale blocks remain inline in SKILL.md rather than being split out, leaving minor organization gaps.	4 / 5

Description

83%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.

A well-constructed description that clearly states capability and trigger conditions in third person, with strong natural trigger phrasing. Minor gaps in action enumeration and synonyms keep specificity and trigger quality just below the top anchor.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names the domain and several concrete actions — "Clear due memory reviews with free recall", "the two-minute habit" — but stops short of enumerating the full set of behaviors (capping, transfer probes, assessor audits), leaving minor coverage gaps.	4 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly answers both what ("Clear due memory reviews with free recall — the two-minute habit that makes learning permanent") and when ("Use when reviews are due, or the user wants to review, practice, or 'do my engram reviews'") with concrete trigger phrases.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Strong natural triggers users would actually say ("reviews are due", "review", "practice", "do my engram reviews"), though common synonyms and the bare "spaced repetition" framing are absent.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The "engram" niche and explicit review-due triggers make it mostly distinct from generic study skills, with only minor overlap risk against a general flashcard/review skill.	4 / 5
