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 tight, information-dense diagnostic skill that respects the token budget and gives a concrete routing workflow with real domain knowledge. The gaps are minor: no example search commands for the correlate-by-ID step, and a non-relative path to the bundled extractor script.

Suggestions

Add one concrete search example for the core correlation step, e.g. `grep '<turnId>' events.jsonl` or a jq filter over ahp/*.jsonl using _ahpLog.ts, so the 'search by the known time or ID' instruction is copy-paste ready.

Reference the bundled extractor relative to the skill directory ("python3 scripts/extract.py \"<archive>.zip\"") so the command works regardless of the current working directory.

Fold the causality check into the workflow as an explicit validation step (e.g., step 5: 'Confirm any error you find has a matching failed response, missing completion, or user-visible consequence before treating it as the cause').

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence: it never explains what a log or timezone is, and every line delivers non-obvious domain knowledge (rotation naming ".1.jsonl", "_ahpLog.truncated: true", UTC vs local time, ephemeral vs persisted events). This matches anchor 5 (every token earns its place) rather than anchor 4, which requires identifiable over-explanation to trim.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete, executable guidance dominates: a copy-paste extractor command ("python3 .github/skills/agent-host-logs/scripts/extract.py \"<archive>.zip\""), a symptom-to-file routing list, and named correlation fields (turnId, serverSeq, _ahpLog.ts). It falls short of anchor 5 only because the central analysis move — "Search by the known time or ID, then follow the same operation into the adjacent layer" — has no concrete command example (e.g., a grep/jq pattern against events.jsonl).

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

"How to Start" gives a clear numbered sequence (list files, identify symptom, pick the closest file, search by time/ID and follow into the adjacent layer) with a decision routing list — matching anchor 4's clear sequence with most checkpoints present. It is not anchor 5 because the verification guidance ("Warning or error severity alone does not prove causality. Look for the matching failed response...") is a tip rather than an explicit validation step inside the workflow; the read-only, non-batch nature of the task keeps it above anchor 3.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The ~80-line body is well organized into purposeful sections with the one bundled script (scripts/extract.py, verified to exist) referenced inline and a best-effort file inventory — good structure with content appropriately placed (anchor 4). It misses anchor 5 because the script is referenced by its repo-root path ".github/skills/agent-host-logs/scripts/extract.py" rather than a bundle-relative "scripts/extract.py", leaving navigation dependent on the working directory.

Description

90%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 description with excellent, highly specific trigger coverage that explicitly states both what the skill does and when to use it. The only weakness is that the capability statement is a single generic verb ("Analyze") rather than a list of concrete sub-actions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Analyze Agent Host debug log exports" names the domain and one concrete action, but does not decompose into several specific actions (e.g., correlate events across layers, trace turns, extract bundles). It matches anchor 3 (domain plus 1-2 concrete actions, not comprehensive) rather than 4, which requires a list of several specific actions.

3 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both questions: what ("Analyze Agent Host debug log exports") and when ("Use when given an ah-logs or ahp-logs zip/folder..." with concrete trigger artifacts). This matches anchor 5 (both what and when with concrete trigger phrases); anchor 4 applies only when the 'when' is less explicit, which is not the case here.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

The description enumerates the exact artifacts a user would naturally mention: "ah-logs or ahp-logs zip/folder", "Export Agent Host Debug Logs bundle", "events.jsonl", "AHP JSONL transport logs", "Agent Host.log", "remote-agenthost.log", or "copilot-logs" — comprehensive coverage including file names and extensions. It cannot score below 5 since no common variant of these artifact names is missing.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The triggers are highly niche product-specific artifact names (ah-logs, ahp-logs, remote-agenthost.log, copilot-logs) that no other skill would claim, giving a clear niche with minimal conflict risk. It clearly fits anchor 5 rather than anchor 4's 'minor overlap risk with closely related skills'.
