85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is highly actionable with a clearly sequenced, validation-gated multi-phase workflow and a well-structured reference architecture with verified bundle files. Its only weakness is conciseness: a few large inline blocks could be moved to references to shorten the SKILL.md surface.
Suggestions
Move the full findings-doc template (lines 326-398) into a reference file (e.g. references/findings-doc-template.md) and keep only a short pointer plus the key shape in SKILL.md, since it is already flagged as the Phase 2 output artifact.
The inline A–F checklist (lines 354-393) overlaps canonical-shape.md; reference it there and retain only the mode-specific load guidance to reduce duplication.
Tighten the large 'Mode workflows' entry-point and reference-PR tables where rows restate behavior already covered in the Linear-fetching protocol and critical rules.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is information-dense with no concept-explanation fluff (it never explains what Nx, semver, or peer deps are), but at ~385 lines it carries large inline blocks — the full findings-doc template (lines 326-398) and the A–F checklist that overlaps canonical-shape.md — that could be tightened by referencing instead. This matches 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' rather than the lean score-3 anchor. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Fully executable guidance throughout: exact commands ('gh pr view <N> --repo nrwl/nx --json state', 'npx nx test <plugin> --testPathPattern=...', 'npx nx format'), exact MCP calls ('mcp__linear-server__get_issue id="NXC-XXXX"'), real file/symbol paths, and a copy-paste findings-doc template — copy-paste ready. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Fix mode is sequenced as Phases 1–6 with an explicit 'User OK gate' at the end of Phase 2, verification steps (Phase 4 tests, Phase 5 verify locally), error-recovery footguns, and the Linear-fetching protocol with halt conditions — clear sequence with validation checkpoints and feedback loops for the destructive/batch edits involved. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | A dedicated 'Which references to load (context hygiene)' table maps each mode to required/optional references, the referenced files (canonical-shape.md, anti-patterns.md, gotchas.md, examples.md) all exist in ./references/, are one level deep, clearly signaled, and the body instructs 'Don't pull all of them' — matching the well-signaled one-level-deep anchor. | 3 / 3 |
