71%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured overview skill with excellent progressive disclosure (verified one-level-deep references that all exist) and actionable design guidance anchored by a litmus test and a 12-consideration framework. The main cost is repetition: the keystone three-pattern framing is restated four times across the body, which pads the token budget without adding guidance.
Suggestions
State the tooltip-spam / one-and-done / contextual-when-needed definitions once in the keystone section and only reference them by name elsewhere; the intro paragraph, 'The tours that work' paragraph, and closing currently restate them almost verbatim.
Compress the persona paragraph to a single line ('Voice: senior product marketing director — practical, opinionated about trigger logic, willing to say no tour is the right answer') to cut ~60 tokens of narrative.
Add a measure-and-iterate step to the framework (e.g., after shipping, instrument feature adoption for tour-covered features and re-audit triggers quarterly) to close the workflow's missing feedback loop and lift workflow clarity to 5.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient — no explaining of concepts Claude already knows — but the tooltip-spam / one-and-done / contextual-when-needed framing is restated nearly verbatim in four places (intro paragraph, 'The tours that work' paragraph, the keystone section, and the closing section), and the persona paragraph ('The voice is the senior product marketing director...') could be one line. Not a 4 because this repetition is more than minor over-explanation; not a 2 because the bulk is dense, useful pattern content. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete for an instruction-only skill: a litmus test procedure ('Watch a user encounter a feature for the first time...'), an explicit recommendation ('Most modern systems use the micro-tour library approach'), symptom-to-diagnosis failure mappings ('Audit trigger logic', 'rebalance to contextual triggers'), and a numbered 12-consideration checklist. Not a 5 because there are no worked examples — no sample trigger definition, tour spec, or metric threshold — that would make the guidance copy-paste ready. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear sequence is present: the tour decision explicitly comes first ('Before designing the tour system, decide whether tours are the right tool'), followed by trigger logic, architecture, placement, tracking, and differentiation, consolidated in the ordered 12-consideration framework with checkpoints like the litmus test and the failure-mode audit. Not a 5 because there is no explicit design-then-measure-then-adjust feedback loop (e.g., instrument adoption, verify lift, iterate). | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is a genuine overview: each section summarizes the pattern and signals 'Detail in [references/X.md]', all 9 cited reference files exist and are one level deep, and a final Reference files section lists each with a one-line description. Matches the clear-overview, well-signaled-references anchor exactly. | 5 / 5 |
