82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A highly actionable, well-sequenced workflow skill: verbatim menus, concrete git commands, real validation gates (test verification, merge-before-cleanup ordering, typed discard confirmation), and correct worktree ownership handling. The main improvement opportunities are an explicit merge-conflict/post-merge-test recovery loop and deduplicating the repeated environment-detection and MAIN_ROOT snippets.
Suggestions
Add explicit error recovery to Option 1: what to do if the merge conflicts or post-merge tests fail (e.g. abort with git merge --abort, report, and stop before any cleanup), which would complete the feedback loop.
Define the MAIN_ROOT and GIT_DIR/GIT_COMMON computations once (e.g. in Step 2) and reference them from Options 1, 4, and Step 6 instead of repeating the snippets.
Consider trimming or integrating the Quick Reference table, which restates details already given in the option sections.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean — tables, verbatim menus, and copy-paste bash with no explanations of git concepts Claude already knows. Minor trimmable duplication remains: the MAIN_ROOT computation appears three times, GIT_DIR/GIT_COMMON detection is repeated in Steps 2 and 6, and "Then: Cleanup worktree (Step 6), then delete branch" restates the comment inside the preceding code block. Not a 5 because of that redundancy; not a 3 since nothing is padded or over-explained. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable guidance throughout: concrete bash ("git merge-base HEAD main 2>/dev/null || git merge-base HEAD master 2>/dev/null", "git worktree remove \"$WORKTREE_PATH\"", "git branch -D <feature-branch>", "git push -u origin <feature-branch>"), verbatim option menus, and an exact typed-confirmation protocol for the destructive path. Placeholders like <feature-branch> and <test command> are appropriate project-dependent template variables, not pseudocode. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear six-step sequence with explicit checkpoints: tests must pass before options are shown, "Merge first -- verify success before removing anything", tests re-verified on the merged result, and a typed 'discard' confirmation with an itemized deletion list. Falls short of 5 because there is no explicit recovery loop for a failed merge or failing post-merge tests — the fix-and-retry path is only implied. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist (no references/, scripts/, or assets/), and the body is a well-sectioned ~190-line workflow that is coherent as a single document, so nothing clearly belongs in a separate file. It exceeds the under-50-lines simple-skill exception, and the Quick Reference table partially restates the per-option details, leaving minor organization gaps rather than a fully clean split. | 4 / 5 |
