Quality

Content

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

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

The content is a tight, actionable reference with a clearly sequenced, checkpointed workflow and no unnecessary explanation. It scores at the top of every dimension for an instruction-only MCP skill.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is a lean list of MCP tool calls with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every line earns its place.	3 / 3
Actionability	Gives fully-qualified executable tool names (e.g. mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__build_run_sim) with concrete parameters (preferXcodebuild: true, captureConsole: true), copy-paste ready rather than pseudocode.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	Core Workflow is a numbered sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (verify launch via describe_ui/screenshot before UI interaction) and a build-fail retry/escalate feedback loop.	3 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	No bundle files exist and the skill is under 50 lines with well-organized sections (Overview, Core Workflow, UI, Logs, Troubleshooting), satisfying the simple-skill anchor.	3 / 3
	Total	12 / 12 Passed

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

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 concise, specific, and complete, with an explicit Use-when trigger and a clear, non-conflicting niche. It hits the top anchor on every dimension.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names multiple concrete actions — "Build, run, and debug iOS apps" plus "launching an app, inspecting simulator UI or logs, or diagnosing runtime behavior" — matching the multi-action anchor rather than the single-domain level 2.	3 / 3
Completeness	Explicitly answers what ("Build, run, and debug iOS apps on Simulator with XcodeBuildMCP") and when via an explicit "Use when..." clause, satisfying the top anchor.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	Triggers ("launching an app", "inspecting simulator UI or logs", "diagnosing runtime behavior") are natural phrases a user would say; not below 3 because coverage is broad and varied rather than missing common variations.	3 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The iOS Simulator + XcodeBuildMCP niche with app-launch/UI/log triggers is clearly distinct and unlikely to fire for unrelated skills.	3 / 3
	Total	12 / 12 Passed
