92%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 lean, well-structured triage workflow with concrete commands and explicit validation gates that prevent premature testdata updates. The only notable gap is actionability detail: the bisect example lacks a 'git bisect run' command and the failpoint check depends on an external doc not bundled with the skill.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Lean and efficient throughout: every line carries non-obvious domain knowledge (e.g., '-tags=intest,deadlock does not enable failpoints', 'add -count=1 ... for reproducibility') with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Matches anchor 5; not 4 because nothing needs trimming. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, executable commands are present ('-run <TestName> -count=1', 'git bisect start/bad/good'), but the bisect block omits 'git bisect run' with the test command, and the Rule 1 check defers to 'docs/agents/testing-flow.md', which is not part of this bundle. Anchor 4 ('mostly executable, minor gaps'); not 5 because those gaps prevent full copy-paste readiness. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear sequenced rules with explicit validation gates and feedback loops: 'If the diff disappears after failpoint enable, classify it as an environment/setup issue', 'Identify first bad commit before updating expected outputs', 'Do not record/update testdata before root cause is identified', plus a gated condition list in Rule 3. Matches anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, needs no bundle files, and is organized into well-labeled sections (Trigger, Rules 1-3, Output format) with a single clearly signaled one-level external reference. Per the simple-skill guideline this matches anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
