Quality

Content

81%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.

The body is a tightly written, highly actionable repair loop: concrete gh commands, a failure triage table, explicit state classification, and a genuine verify-on-remote feedback loop. Its weaknesses are modest — some redundant GitHub-state enumeration, placeholder variables in the GraphQL example, and inline reference-grade material that a ~200-line skill could offload to a references/ file.

Suggestions

Trim or compress the enumerated check-run/status state lists to the non-obvious ones (e.g., STALE, STARTUP_FAILURE) since Claude already knows the common states.

Define $PR_NUMBER, OWNER, and REPO before the snippets that use them so every command block is copy-paste ready.

Move the GraphQL statusCheckRollup query into a short references/ file to keep the main workflow lean.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean and command-driven with no padded conceptual explanation, e.g., direct `gh pr view --json ...` and `gh run view <RUN_ID> --log-failed` snippets. However, the full enumeration of GitHub states ("QUEUED, PENDING, WAITING, REQUESTED, IN_PROGRESS") repeats knowledge Claude already has, so it is not anchor-5 lean.

4 / 5

Actionability

Mostly executable guidance: concrete gh/jq commands, a failure-classification table mapping type to action, and explicit push/poll steps. Minor gaps keep it below 5 — the GraphQL snippet uses literal OWNER/REPO placeholders and `$PR_NUMBER` is referenced in step 2 before its derivation is shown.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear 8-step sequence with explicit checkpoints and feedback loops: poll-until-terminal criteria, terminal/pending/failure state definitions, restart points ("restart from Step 3"), explicit exit conditions, and a remote verification gate ("The loop is only complete when the remote PR checks for the new head SHA are green"). Not a destructive/batch operation, so no cap applies.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

No bundle files exist, and the single-file body is well-sectioned (Scope, Inputs, Workflow, Output, Notes) with no nested references. At ~200 lines, content such as the inline GraphQL payload and the check-state tables is a candidate for a one-level-deep references file, which is the minor organization gap that keeps it below anchor 5.

Description

87%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: third-person, concise, with an explicit 'Use when' clause containing concrete trigger phrases and deliberate disambiguation from related skills. Its only weaknesses are moderate action coverage in the 'what' portion and missing common trigger synonyms like 'CI'.

Suggestions

Mention the repair actions explicitly (e.g., 'investigate failing checks, fix, and push') so the 'what' coverage is comprehensive.

Add common trigger synonyms such as 'CI is red' or 'build failures' to broaden natural keyword matching.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names concrete actions and outcomes — "Iterate on a GitHub PR until latest-head checks are green or a precise blocker is named" — but the repair actions (investigate, fix, push, rerun) are implied rather than listed. It is above anchor 3 because it names the domain and multiple specific actions, but not comprehensive enough for a 5.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both: what ("Iterate on a GitHub PR until latest-head checks are green or a precise blocker is named") and when ("Use when a PR still has failing or pending checks after review fixes, including after greploop"). Both are concrete with clear trigger phrases, matching the anchor 5 example structure.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural user phrases like "GitHub PR", "failing or pending checks" are present and would match real requests. Missing common variations such as "CI", "red CI", or "build failures", so it falls between anchor 3 and the comprehensive synonym coverage of anchor 5.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (PR check repair loop) with explicit disambiguation from sibling skills — "after review fixes, including after greploop" — and the body further scopes it against `check-pr`. Minimal conflict risk; matches the anchor 5 clear-niche example.
