context-radar-audit

Audit a project's Claude Code tool stack (MCP servers, plugins, hooks) against the curated recommendations at Context Radar (thoroc.github.io/context-radar): a 90-plus-tool, 20-layer comparison of context-reduction, memory, and code-nav tools for coding agents. Use when asked to review the Claude Code / MCP tool stack, check for redundant or conflicting tools, decide what to install next, or evaluate a new context/memory/code-nav tool against what's already running. DO NOT use for reviewing application dependencies (npm/cargo packages) or general code review - scope is Claude Code tooling only. Triggers: 'context radar', 'what tools should we use', 'audit our tool stack', 'is X redundant with Y', 'should I install this MCP server', 'tool stack review', 'context reduction tools'.

Content

78%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 well-structured instruction skill: the workflow is sequenced, safety-conscious (report-don't-remediate is stated in the workflow, Mindset, and Anti-Patterns), and grounded in executable commands and verified bundle files. It stays lean and pushes detail to a one-level-deep reference; the remaining gaps are a missing error-recovery path for a failed fetch and slight redundancy between the Workflow, Mindset, and Anti-Patterns sections.

Suggestions

Add one error-recovery step to the Workflow (e.g., 'If the fetch fails or the shape check rejects the payload, retry with a pinned commit URL as the script's first argument, then stop and report rather than proceeding with stale data') to earn a validation feedback loop.

Trim the Mindset section to bullets that don't restate Workflow steps (the cardinality-not-preference point appears in both) to cut tokens without losing guidance.

Include one short worked example of a finished finding (layer name, cardinality, the two conflicting tool ids, and the cited `note` field) so step 4's cross-referencing has a concrete template to follow.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is efficient — it explains nothing Claude already knows (no what-is-MCP filler), and every section (Gotcha, Workflow, Mindset, Anti-Patterns) carries task-specific information. Minor trim opportunities exist: the Anti-Patterns' BAD/GOOD pairs and the Mindset bullets partially restate points already made in the Workflow, matching the 'efficient; minor instances of over-explanation' anchor rather than the every-token-earns-its-place anchor.

4 / 5

Actionability

Guidance is mostly executable: copy-paste commands (`node scripts/fetch-comparison-data.js > /tmp/context-radar-data.json`, `collect-active-tools.sh <project-dir>`), concrete destination paths, and worked mapping examples (`cargo-tokensave/latest/bin/tokensave` → id `tokensave`). Minor gaps keep it off the 5 anchor: the cross-referencing in step 4 is described but has no example of a worked finding, and there is no sample invocation output for the collection script.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clearly sequenced 6-step workflow with most checkpoints present: the fetch script validates the dataset shape (`isDataset` check), findings are classified into distinct types (redundancy, removal, staleness, phantom-tool), and the destructive-action risk is handled by an explicit 'Report, don't remediate' gate requiring user confirmation. Not the 5 anchor because there is no explicit error-recovery loop (e.g., what to do when the fetch fails or the shape check rejects the payload).

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is a genuine overview: the full field list is split into `references/data-shape.md` (verified to exist, one level deep, no nested references), data operations live in the two scripts, and the References table signals each resource with a 'When to Use' column. This matches the clear-overview / well-signaled one-level-deep-references anchor; the body's inline field discussion is correctly limited to the two load-bearing fields.

Description

100%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 description: it states multiple concrete capabilities in third person, gives an explicit 'Use when' clause with seven natural trigger phrases, and proactively fences off the two nearest wrong-skill cases (app dependency review, general code review). Every rubric dimension lands on its top anchor; the only nit is that '90-plus-tool, 20-layer' is a time-bound count that will drift from the live dataset.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description lists multiple concrete, distinct actions — "Audit a project's Claude Code tool stack", "check for redundant or conflicting tools", "decide what to install next", "evaluate a new context/memory/code-nav tool against what's already running" — with the domain precisely scoped (MCP servers, plugins, hooks). This matches the anchor for multiple specific concrete actions with comprehensive coverage; not the 4 anchor, which expects minor gaps in coverage.

5 / 5

Completeness

Both halves are explicit: the "what" ("Audit a project's Claude Code tool stack... against the curated recommendations at Context Radar") and the "when" ("Use when asked to review the Claude Code / MCP tool stack, check for redundant or conflicting tools, decide what to install next..."). This mirrors the top anchor's what-and-when with concrete trigger phrases; not the 4 anchor, where the 'when' could be more explicit.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

An explicit "Triggers:" clause lists seven natural user phrasings — 'context radar', 'what tools should we use', 'audit our tool stack', 'is X redundant with Y', 'should I install this MCP server', 'tool stack review', 'context reduction tools' — covering synonyms and conversational variants users would actually say. Matches the comprehensive-coverage anchor; not the 4 anchor, which expects a few natural terms missing.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

A clear niche (Claude Code tooling audits against one named dataset) plus an explicit negative boundary — "DO NOT use for reviewing application dependencies (npm/cargo packages) or general code review - scope is Claude Code tooling only" — minimizes conflict risk with adjacent skills like general code review or dependency audits. Matches the clear-niche anchor; not the 4 anchor, which allows minor overlap risk.
