update-cnw-templates

Update the CNW (create-nx-workspace) template repos (nrwl/empty-template, nrwl/react-template, etc.) to a target nx version via nx migrate, verify each repo, and open a PR per repo. Clones repos it needs - assumes no local checkout. Use when asked to "update the CNW templates", "migrate the templates to nx X", "bump the template repos", or given a version like "update templates to 23.2.0".

Quality

Content

92%

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

The body is lean, highly actionable, and sequences a multi-step batch operation with strong validation checkpoints. Its only real defect is a referenced bundle script (run-all-templates.sh) that is absent from the skill directory.

Suggestions

Ship run-all-templates.sh alongside SKILL.md (or remove the reference in step 6), since the body claims it is 'bundled next to this file' but no such file exists in the bundle.

Make the broken-reference risk structural: list bundled scripts in an explicit 'Bundle files' section so missing files are obvious at a glance.

Confirm the PR body placeholder instructs escaping JSON special characters, as the inline curl -d payload currently shows unquoted template placeholders.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and assumes Claude's competence - executable bash is given without explaining what nx or git are, and the explanatory context (e.g. 'how the react template broke') is load-bearing rationale for verification rather than padding.

3 / 3

Actionability

Copy-paste-ready commands for every phase (clone, migrate, verify, commit/PR) with concrete env flags and a real curl PR payload, plus a parameter table of all template repos.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clearly sequenced 7-step procedure with explicit validation checkpoints and feedback loops for this batch/risky operation, e.g. 'git status --porcelain # MUST be empty' and 'If any target fails... revert that repo (git checkout .) and report - never open a red PR'.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Sections are well-organized, but the body references 'run-all-templates.sh (bundled next to this file)' which does not exist in the bundle - a broken one-level reference, so navigation is not fully sound.

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.

The description is specific, complete, and well-triggered, naming concrete actions and four realistic user phrasings while keeping a distinct, low-conflict niche. It is a strong example of the form.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions - 'Update the CNW template repos... to a target nx version via nx migrate, verify each repo, and open a PR per repo. Clones repos it needs - assumes no local checkout' - rather than vague language.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (update template repos via nx migrate, verify, open a PR per repo) and 'when' with an explicit 'Use when asked to...' trigger clause.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Provides four natural user phrasings via the 'Use when asked to' clause: 'update the CNW templates', 'migrate the templates to nx X', 'bump the template repos', and 'update templates to 23.2.0'.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (CNW template repos, nx version bumps) with narrow, distinctive triggers unlikely to fire for unrelated skills.
