88%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 tight, highly actionable instruction skill: a concrete workflow with built-in validation steps, a complete worked example, and specific measurable targets. The only notable weaknesses are mild redundancy between the body, the Voice section, and the closing checklist, and no offloading of the longer example material to reference files.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body teaches non-obvious house rules (format, labels, length, evidence) without padding or explaining concepts Claude already knows. Minor trim opportunities: the 'Voice' section partly restates how Claude already writes ('plain words, contractions, and short connected sentences'), and the closing checklist duplicates rules stated in the body. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | For an instruction-only skill the guidance is fully executable: explicit argument syntax with invocation examples ('/pr-description 3534 --fixes 123,456'), a complete worked example PR description, and concrete numeric targets ('under 200 words', '3 to 6 labeled bullets'). Per the rubric's scoring note, the absence of code is not penalized when guidance is this actionable. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 5-step sequence with explicit validation checkpoints: step 2 checks the existing description before rewriting, step 5 re-reads the draft without the diff to catch missing context, and a final self-check checklist closes the loop. This is not a destructive or batch operation, so no cap applies. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Single-file skill with no bundle files; sections are clearly headed (Arguments, Instructions, Format, Length and evidence, Voice, Checklist) and the worked example is properly fenced and labeled. Not 5: the skill exceeds 50 lines, and the long worked example plus detailed section guidance could arguably live in a reference file, though splitting a cohesive style guide is a judgment call. | 4 / 5 |
