85%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 strategy skill with a clear workflow and a properly signaled single reference file. Its main weakness is length and editorial commentary that could be trimmed for token efficiency.
Suggestions
Tighten or remove rhetorical commentary (e.g. 'The audit is often eye-opening', 'The team that ships features without docs has less than they think they have') to reduce tokens without losing guidance.
De-duplicate the Diátaxis category detail between the body and references/doc-types-guide.md, keeping the body to a brief summary that points to the reference.
Consider condensing the 14-item 'Failure patterns' list into the most impactful entries or moving the full list into a reference file.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient with concrete lists, tables, and templates, but the body is long (~400 lines) with recurring rhetorical commentary ('The audit is often eye-opening', 'Stale docs are worse than missing docs') and some redundancy with the doc-types reference, so it could be tightened rather than scoring a lean 3. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Concrete and actionable throughout — a 10-step workflow, a copy-ready ADR template, a per-tier maintenance-cadence table, a tooling comparison table, and specific patterns (e.g. README answering four questions in 'five sentences each'), satisfying the instruction-only actionable anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 10-step workflow (Audit → Categorize → Gaps → Dead weight → Homes → Ownership → Cadence → Part-of-work → Discoverable → Measure) is clearly sequenced and logically progressive; the destructive/batch validation cap does not apply to this planning workflow. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized overview sections with a single, clearly signaled one-level-deep reference — '[`references/doc-types-guide.md`](references/doc-types-guide.md)' — that exists as a real bundle file, matching the clear-navigation anchor. | 3 / 3 |
