77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is a well-structured, highly actionable orchestration overview with a clear phased workflow and explicit verification gate. Its two weaknesses are token padding (the long auto-gate keyword lists) and broken progressive disclosure: the step files it tells the reader to load before each phase are missing from the bundle.
Suggestions
Add the missing steps/step-01-detect.md through step-05-handoff.md (and gotchas.md), or remove the references and inline the essential per-phase instructions — currently the Phase Dispatch table points to files that do not exist.
Trim the auto-gate signal keyword lists (Tradeoff / Boundary / Trust / Operational / Architectural-decision) into a shorter representative set or move the exhaustive list into a reference file to reduce token cost.
De-duplicate the taxonomy, which appears both as prose in the intro paragraph and again as the 'What x-mindful Surfaces' table.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is competent and non-pedantic (no basic-concept filler, assumes Claude's intelligence) but is long with padding — notably the ~40-keyword auto-gate signal lists across five bullet groups and some taxonomy restatement between the intro and the table — so it could be tightened rather than earning 'every token earns its place'. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, copy-paste-ready guidance: an exact decision-envelope markdown template, a precise MCP call signature (mcp__basic-memory__search_notes({ query, page_size: 5 })), a confirm/modify/reject/skip/quit gate menu, and explicit anti-trigger and skip-condition tables — fully actionable for an instruction/orchestration skill. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Sequences five phases in a clear dispatch table, identifies Phase 4 as the core loop with 1-3/5 linear, and includes an explicit MANDATORY Completion/verifier gate with a concrete done-definition and a feedback loop (the gate menu), matching clear sequence with explicit validation steps. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Signaling and one-level-deep organization are good (References section, lazy-load list, Phase Dispatch table mapping phases to step files), but the core referenced files do not exist: the entire steps/ directory (step-01 through step-05) and gotchas.md are absent, so navigation leads to dead ends; only the four references/*.md files resolve. | 2 / 3 |
