comparison-tool-design

Designing side-by-side comparison tools (plan-compare, product-compare, alternative-compare) that help users decide rather than just listing features. Axis selection, default-comparison logic, recommendation discipline. Honest about feature-list-dump (every feature in a row, no decision support), hidden-recommendation (biased comparison pretending to be neutral), and honest-comparison-with-guidance (genuine comparison plus opinionated recommendation) patterns. Triggers on comparison tool, plan compare, product compare, alternative compare, vs page, decision support tool. Also triggers when conversion through comparison stages is poor, when users are abandoning at the comparison step, or when a comparison tool is being scoped for the first time.

Quality

Content

71%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 well-structured, opinionated playbook with strong progressive disclosure (9 real reference files, one level deep) and concrete actionable templates. The main weakness is redundancy where the framework and closing sections restate earlier material.

Suggestions

Collapse or trim the '12 considerations' framework so it cross-references the detailed sections instead of restating them, reducing token redundancy.

Tighten the 'Closing' section, which largely restates the feature-list-dump vs hidden-recommendation vs honest-comparison framing already established above.

Add an explicit validate-and-iterate checkpoint (e.g., 'after drafting, run the litmus test on the tool; if it fails, revise axis selection or recommendation before shipping') to strengthen the workflow's feedback loop.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The opinionated prose is mostly efficient and domain-specific, but the '12 considerations' framework re-summarizes the preceding sections and the closing restates the framing, adding redundancy beyond the minor trims of anchor-4.

3 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete, near-copy-paste templates ('For [audience], choose [option] because [reasons]'), a litmus test, the 8-12 axis rule, and failure diagnoses with cures, though some sections are taxonomic rather than directly directive.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A sequenced 12-consideration checklist plus an investment decision gate and a 'data unavailable' guardrail give a clear sequence with most checkpoints, but explicit validate-then-proceed feedback loops are only weakly present.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Each major section signals a one-level-deep reference file and a consolidated 'Reference files' list maps all 9 real files with one-line descriptions, giving clear overview-to-detail navigation.

Description

95%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, third-person description that explicitly answers both what the skill does and when to use it, with comprehensive natural trigger terms and a distinct niche. Minor specificity gap stems from naming design domains rather than crisply distinct concrete actions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and several specific design activities ('Axis selection, default-comparison logic, recommendation discipline') plus three tool types and three named patterns, but these are design-domain nouns rather than the distinct concrete actions of the anchor-5 example, leaving minor coverage gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Clearly states the 'what' (designing comparison tools and distinguishing three patterns) and an explicit 'when' via 'Triggers on...' and 'Also triggers when...' clauses, matching the anchor-5 example structure.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural trigger terms ('comparison tool, plan compare, product compare, alternative compare, vs page, decision support tool') plus behavioral triggers users would voice, matching the anchor-5 level of synonym coverage.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Carves a clear niche (side-by-side comparison tools, axis selection, recommendation discipline) with distinct triggers unlikely to fire for sibling growth-tooling skills.
