72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is highly actionable with concrete PromQL and Prometheus YAML, but loses conciseness through repeated SLI expressions and generic boilerplate, and lacks a clearly sequenced implementation workflow with validation checkpoints.
Suggestions
Define each SLI expression once and reference it thereafter; the availability ratio currently appears verbatim in the 'Defining SLIs', 'Choose Appropriate SLOs', and 'Recording Rules' sections.
Replace the generic 'Instructions' boilerplate ('Clarify goals... validate outcomes') with a concrete ordered SLO implementation workflow, e.g. define SLIs -> set SLO targets -> record rules -> add multi-window alerts -> review.
Add an explicit validation checkpoint after authoring recording and alerting rules, such as 'promtool check rules sli_rules.yml' and confirming a test alert fires, to give the implementation workflow a real feedback loop.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient with executable PromQL/YAML, but the availability SLI expression 'sum(rate(http_requests_total{status!~"5.."}[28d])) / sum(rate(http_requests_total[28d]))' is repeated across three sections, and the 'Instructions' block ('Clarify goals... Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes') is generic filler that could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable, copy-paste-ready artifacts: PromQL SLI queries, Prometheus recording-rule YAML, multi-window alerting rules, and concrete error-budget calculations, matching the level-3 anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Content is organized as a reference catalog (SLI types, SLO targets, rules, alerts) rather than a sequenced implementation workflow, and the generic 'Instructions' section lacks explicit validation checkpoints such as validating rules with promtool before alerting. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | A single self-contained file with clearly headed sections and no nested or multi-level references; per the rubric's simple-skill note, well-organized sections with no need for external references score 3. | 3 / 3 |
