add-channel-setup-guide

Add a new chat channel's layer-1 setup guide — the in-dashboard <Channel>SetupGuide that walks a developer through connecting the channel itself (create app/bot → save credentials → install/verify → send first message) with live connection detection — in apps/dashboard, following the existing Slack, MS Teams, and Telegram guides. Use when a new agent channel needs its numbered setup stepper, credential drawer wiring, and connectedAt polling under components/agents.

Quality

Content

92%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A tight, actionable, well-sequenced instruction skill that earns top marks on conciseness, actionability, and workflow clarity. Its only gap is progressive disclosure: the body points to a reference.md template that does not exist in the bundle.

Suggestions

Provide the missing references/reference.md (or place the template inline) so the "Full template" link resolves, completing the one-level-deep progressive disclosure structure.

If reference.md is intentionally omitted, replace the link with an inline minimal component skeleton so the guide remains self-contained.

Consider moving the long building-blocks table into reference.md to further slim the SKILL.md overview now that a reference target exists.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and expert-oriented throughout — a building-blocks table, terse prop/state-machine contract, and gotchas all assume Claude's competence with no boilerplate explanations of concepts it already knows.

3 / 3

Actionability

Provides exact file paths, prop types, hook names, query keys to invalidate, a copy-sibling checklist, and a concrete 3-step recipe; the guidance is specific and executable even though full code is deferred to a template.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Clear sequenced flow from prerequisites through file checklist, component contract, recipe, and a Build & verify section that acts as an explicit checkpoint (check types via Cursor diagnostics; confirm steps advance and Listening flips to Connected).

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The body is well-organized and defers the full template to a clearly signaled one-level-deep reference.md, but that referenced file is absent (no references/ bundle exists), so navigation breaks and it falls short of the score-3 anchor.

Description

100%

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 highly specific, well-triggered description that names concrete actions, explicit use-conditions, and a distinct niche. It is dense with domain jargon but that detail aids correct triggering rather than padding.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — "create app/bot → save credentials → install/verify → send first message" plus "numbered setup stepper, credential drawer wiring, and connectedAt polling" — matching the multi-action anchor rather than the partial score-2 anchor.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers what (in-dashboard setup guide that connects the channel) and when via a clear "Use when a new agent channel needs..." trigger, satisfying the both-what-and-when anchor.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Opens with natural phrasing a user would say ("Add a new chat channel's setup guide", named channels Slack/MS Teams/Telegram) with broad coverage; the embedded jargon is additive rather than replacing natural terms.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (layer-1 channel setup guides in apps/dashboard) and explicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling add-channel-whats-next-onboarding skill, making cross-triggering unlikely.
