netlify-deploy

Create and manage Netlify deploys — Git continuous deployment, CLI manual/anonymous deploys, Deploy to Netlify buttons, drag-and-drop, and per-context netlify.toml build settings. Use when linking a repo, deploying from the CLI, setting up Deploy Previews or branch deploys, configuring deploy contexts, adding skew protection, fixing a failed or secrets-flagged deploy, or wiring build hooks and Deploy to Netlify buttons.

Quality

Content

93%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.

A high-quality, action-oriented reference skill: lean and executable with explicit footgun warnings and clearly signaled deep-guide references. Workflow clarity is strong but not maximal, as some destructive/batch paths rely on warning prose rather than explicit validate-then-proceed checkpoints.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Dense, reference-style body that assumes Claude's competence: lean code blocks with inline comments, list-based management guidance, and concise 'Footgun' warnings — every token earns its place as Netlify-specific fact.	5 / 5
Actionability	Fully executable commands and snippets throughout — `netlify deploy --prod`, `netlify deploy --allow-anonymous`, `[skip ci]`/`[skip netlify]` tokens, URL hash parameters, and complete netlify.toml context blocks — copy-paste ready and covering common cases.	5 / 5
Workflow Clarity	Clear sequences for CLI deploys, managing deploys (Find/Lock/Cancel/Retry/Download/Delete), and a fix-forward loop for failed deploys, with explicit warning checkpoints before destructive actions (manual --prod, secrets leaks); minor validation gaps keep it just below the top anchor.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Well-signaled one-level-deep references to three real bundle files (`references/netlify-toml.md`, `references/cli-commands.md`, `references/deployment-patterns.md`) in a dedicated 'More' section, with the body serving as a navigable overview.	5 / 5

Description

92%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 strong, third-person description that pairs a concrete capability list with an explicit, trigger-rich 'Use when' clause. The only minor gap is keyword synonym coverage, which keeps trigger_term_quality just below the top anchor.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists multiple concrete actions — "Git continuous deployment, CLI manual/anonymous deploys, Deploy to Netlify buttons, drag-and-drop, and per-context netlify.toml build settings" — with comprehensive coverage of the skill's capabilities.	5 / 5
Completeness	Clearly answers both what ("Create and manage Netlify deploys" plus the enumerated methods) and when (explicit "Use when..." clause with concrete trigger phrases).	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Strong natural trigger phrases ("linking a repo", "deploying from the CLI", "setting up Deploy Previews", "fixing a failed or secrets-flagged deploy"), but it enumerates distinct features rather than synonyms/extensions of one concept, leaving a few natural variations implied.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Occupies a clear Netlify-deploy niche with distinct triggers (Deploy Previews, branch deploys, build hooks, Deploy to Netlify buttons) and minimal overlap with other skills.	5 / 5
