voxtype-install

Guide the user through installing, configuring, and launching voxtype — local on-device voice dictation (speech-to-text that types wherever the cursor is). Use when the user asks to install voxtype, set up voice dictation / voice typing, or asks how to dictate into their editor, terminal, or a coding agent's prompt.

Content

82%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, actionable install guide with concrete commands and a clear sequence. It is mostly lean and points to external references appropriately, though the inline config list is somewhat heavy and there is no explicit failure-recovery feedback loop.

Suggestions

Trim the inline config-options enumeration (e.g., the trailing "and more" key list) and defer it to the linked Configuration reference, keeping only the most common keys inline.

Add a brief validation/recovery step after install and after setup — e.g., "run `voxtype --help` to confirm the install" and "if `voxtype setup` fails to write config, fall back to `voxtype init` and edit manually".

Make the macOS-only constraint a top-of-file prerequisite callout so Linux/Windows users short-circuit before reading the full guide.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean and assumes Claude's competence (tight install/launch commands, no PDF-style concept explanations), but the inline config-options list ("wake_word / wake_word_aliases, submit_phrases, overlay, paste_hotkey, cancel_hotkey, copy_to_clipboard, and more") and parenthetical engine details could be trimmed slightly.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands throughout — `uv tool install voxtype`, `voxtype setup`, `voxtype init`, `voxtype`, `voxtype hotkey` — with concrete config keys and specific first-run permission steps covering the common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clear Install → Configure → Launch sequence with an explicit permission checkpoint ("all three must be granted, then voxtype restarted"), but lacks an explicit validate/verify-install step or failure-feedback loop for when setup or launch misbehaves.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized into Install/Configure/Launch/Reference sections with clearly signaled external doc links, but the fairly long inline config-options list is content that could live in the referenced configuration page; no bundle files exist to offset this.

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, third-person description that clearly states what the skill does and gives explicit, natural trigger conditions with synonyms. It is concise yet comprehensive for an install/setup guide.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (voxtype voice dictation) and three concrete actions — "installing, configuring, and launching" — which comprehensively cover the install-guide lifecycle; not just a single generic verb.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ("installing, configuring, and launching voxtype — local on-device voice dictation") and when ("Use when the user asks to install voxtype, set up voice dictation / voice typing, or asks how to dictate...") with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural phrases users would say — "install voxtype", "set up voice dictation / voice typing", "dictate into their editor, terminal, or a coding agent's prompt" — with synonyms (dictation/typing/dictate) and concrete target contexts.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Targets a specific named package (voxtype) with a clear niche (on-device voice dictation that types at the cursor); triggers are specific enough to avoid overlapping with unrelated skills.
