Quality

Content

86%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, highly actionable skill body with concrete commands and a clean one-level reference split. Minor conciseness redundancy and slightly implicit retry loops are the only gaps.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Mostly lean with bullet lists and specific commands and no basic-concept padding, but the raw-executable-launch warning is repeated across Quick Start, step 3, and Guardrails and could be tightened.	4 / 5
Actionability	Fully executable guidance with exact commands, flags (--debug, --logs, --telemetry, --verify), specific Info.plist keys, and paths like /usr/bin/open -n covering the common cases.	5 / 5
Workflow Clarity	A clear 7-step sequence with a validation checkpoint (--verify via pgrep -x) and failure-classification/debug feedback, though the validate-then-retry loop is implied rather than made fully explicit.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	SKILL.md is an overview that cleanly delegates the canonical script contract to references/build-run-script.md, a real one-level-deep file signaled in the References section.	5 / 5

Description

87%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 concise, well-formed description that answers both what and when with concrete, natural trigger phrases and a distinct macOS niche. Minor specificity and synonym-coverage gaps keep specificity and trigger_term_quality at 4 rather than 5.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists several concrete actions ("Build, run, and debug macOS apps") plus a named approach ("shell-first Xcode and Swift workflows"), but coverage is not exhaustive enough for a 5.	4 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly states both what ("Build, run, and debug macOS apps with shell-first Xcode and Swift workflows") and when ("Use when launching apps or diagnosing build, startup, or runtime failures") with concrete triggers.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Natural user phrases like "launching apps" and "diagnosing build, startup, or runtime failures" are present, though a few common synonyms are missing.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	A clear macOS-app shell-first niche with distinct launch/diagnostic triggers and minimal overlap with other skills.	5 / 5
	Total	18 / 20 Passed
