visual-brief

Publish substantial implementation, investigation, review, or design reports on a local structured HTML page. Use after meaningful work that benefits from layered detail, or when the human explicitly asks for a visual brief. Skip trivial updates, quick answers, tiny fixes, and routine status messages.

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 content is high quality: concise, actionable with concrete commands and a complete example, and structured with clear sections and validation guidance. It falls just short of top marks on conciseness and workflow clarity due to minor tightening and checkpoint gaps.

Suggestions

Move the detailed payload field/trust/suggestion spec into a short reference table or separate file to tighten the main flow.

Add an explicit validation checkpoint right after 'publish' (run 'visual-brief lint') before handing the URL off, to close the workflow-clarity gap.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is mostly lean and assumes Claude's competence, giving concrete commands and a JSON payload example without explaining basic concepts; a few explanatory passages (e.g., the legacy-migration narrative) could be tightened.	4 / 5
Actionability	Provides fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands ('visual-brief new', 'visual-brief serve', 'visual-brief publish --file report.json'), a complete JSON example, and explicit field/trust enumerations covering the common cases.	5 / 5
Workflow Clarity	The publish/watch/answer sequence is clearly laid out with an explicit validation checkpoint ('visual-brief lint', 'Fix warnings before sharing') and rollback-on-failure note; minor validation gaps in the serve/new steps keep it just below 5.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Well-organized with clear section headers and the body appropriately inlines the needed spec; no bundle files exist so references are internal, and structure is good though a few long field-spec sections could be split out.	4 / 5

Description

83%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.

The description is strong: it states both what the skill does and when to use it, with concrete trigger guidance and explicit negative cases. It is slightly broad in its report-type list, which modestly raises overlap risk and lowers specificity a touch.

Suggestions

Tighten the action list to concrete operations (e.g., 'Generate a local HTML briefing with layered glance/explanation/forensics lanes') to lift specificity.

Add a natural synonym trigger such as 'report' or 'status page' to broaden trigger-term coverage.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists several concrete actions ('Publish substantial implementation, investigation, review, or design reports') and the specific artifact ('a local structured HTML page'), though the verbs are somewhat high-level rather than enumerating distinct operations.	4 / 5
Completeness	Clearly answers both 'what' (publish substantial reports on a local structured HTML page) and 'when' ('Use after meaningful work that benefits from layered detail, or when the human explicitly asks for a visual brief'), with explicit negative guidance on when to skip.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Includes natural trigger phrases users would say ('visual brief', 'review', 'design report') and an explicit 'when the human explicitly asks for a visual brief', though it lacks synonyms like 'report' alone or file-format style keywords.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The 'visual brief' / local HTML page niche is fairly distinct, but the broad 'implementation, investigation, review, or design reports' phrasing could overlap with general reporting or review-related skills.	4 / 5
	Total	17 / 20 Passed
