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 well-structured, action-oriented skill body with concrete gradle commands, clear always/ask/never constraints, and a sequenced workflow including verification. The main gaps are the absence of before/after code examples and an explicit verification-failure feedback loop.
Suggestions
Convert the prose Examples into short before/after Kotlin code snippets (e.g., a null-check block vs. its `?.let` form) so the refactor patterns are copy-paste ready.
Add an explicit feedback loop to the VERIFY step: if compilation or lint fails, fix the issue and re-run the checks before presenting.
Tighten the Philosophy bullets and journaling paragraph, which read as guidance Claude could infer, freeing tokens for the concrete examples.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is efficient and assumes Claude's competence (no explanation of Kotlin concepts), but the Philosophy bullets and the long journaling paragraph are trimming candidates that don't each earn their tokens. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete executable commands ('./gradlew ktfmtFormat', './gradlew detekt', './gradlew lintDebug'), specific type swaps ('java.util.Date' to 'java.time.Instant'), and a PR title example are given, but the Examples section describes refactors in prose rather than showing before/after code. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear five-step sequence (SCAN, SELECT & PROPOSE, REFINE, VERIFY, PRESENT) with an explicit approval gate and a VERIFY step that formats, compiles, and checks lint; however, no explicit error-recovery loop (what to do when verification fails) is described. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | At 49 lines with no bundle files needed, the body is well organized into Goal, Constraints, Instructions, and Examples sections, and the only external path (.agents/skills/steward/journal.md) is a clearly signaled state file, not a nested reference. | 5 / 5 |
