86%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.
The content is a lean, well-structured instruction-only workflow with concrete commands and explicit validation gates; the main gap is the absence of an explicit error-recovery feedback loop and copy-paste-ready examples. Progressive disclosure is appropriate for a short, self-contained skill.
Suggestions
Add an explicit validate→fix→retry feedback loop in the Update minimally section (e.g., 'If a validator or example fails, fix and re-run before proceeding') to push workflow_clarity toward 5.
Include one or two short copy-paste-ready command invocations (e.g., a sample `asc <command> --help` drift-check snippet) to make the guidance fully executable and raise actionability.
Optionally surface a couple of natural synonyms ('stale', 'out of date') in the description triggers for broader trigger-term coverage.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and directive with no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every section (Establish sources, Prove drift, Update minimally, Automation contract, Hand off) earns its place. It is not a 4 because there are no noticeable instances of over-explanation to trim. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, specific guidance is present (run `--help` at each command path, use `asc search`/`asc schema`/`asc capabilities`, validate against a built or released `asc` binary, run the skills repo validators, open a draft PR). It is not a 5 because there are no copy-paste-ready examples covering common cases, and not a 3 because the named commands and steps are genuinely executable rather than pseudocode. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear sequence (Establish sources → Prove drift → Update minimally → Hand off) carries explicit validation checkpoints (prove drift before editing, validate every changed command example, run validators) and checklists (the drift "Check for" list and the hand-off report list). It is not a 5 because an explicit validate→fix→retry feedback loop for error recovery is not stated, and not a 3 because validation is explicitly present so the destructive/batch cap does not apply. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is under 50 lines, no bundle files exist, and no external references are needed, so the simple-skill exception applies: well-organized sections alone warrant a 5. Sections are clearly headed and easy to navigate. It is not a 4 because organization is clean with no buried or inlined reference material. | 5 / 5 |
