72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A richly actionable body with excellent progressive disclosure and concrete code/commands. Its weak spots are conciseness (length and some repetition) and workflow clarity (no explicit feedback loops for destructive operations).
Suggestions
Add an explicit validate→fix→retry loop to the CI/CD and update workflows (e.g., 'terraform plan; if errors, fix and re-plan; only apply when plan is clean') to lift workflow clarity.
Consolidate duplicated guidance — count/for_each and variable best practices each appear in multiple sections — and move Claude-known basics (file naming) to a reference or trim them.
Tighten the body toward an overview; push more of the inline code examples and tables into the existing reference files to reduce the main file's token footprint.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly high-value, but the ~500-line body repeats material (count/for_each and variable best practices appear in multiple sections) and spells out Claude-known basics like file naming ('main.tf - Primary resources'); not every token earns its place. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides executable HCL blocks, concrete commands ('trivy config .', 'checkov -d .', 'terraform init -upgrade'), and decision matrices that are copy-paste ready. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The Validate/Test/Plan/Apply and update workflows are sequenced, but checkpoints are implicit ('review execution plan') with no explicit validate→fix→retry feedback loop for destructive 'terraform apply'; the rubric caps this at 2. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Clear overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references (code-patterns.md, testing-frameworks.md, module-patterns.md, ci-cd-workflows.md, security-compliance.md, quick-reference.md), all of which exist as real files; navigation is easy. | 3 / 3 |
