88%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.
An exceptionally actionable, well-sequenced operational runbook: concrete commands, explicit gates with exit codes and override feedback loops, and strong guardrails for batch and destructive operations. The two gaps are minor: dated incident notes and a version anecdote that dilute token efficiency, and a monolithic single-file layout where reference material could be split out.
Suggestions
Move the dated incident rationale (e.g. 'Two over-broad cleanups on 2026-11-05 removed other lanes' work', 'user decision 2026-11-05') into a short 'why' footnote per rule or a background section, so time-sensitive details don't sit in the operational path.
Split the signal-type/kind mapping and the gate-scope details ('Gate scope', 'zero_caret'/'fix_unreachable' semantics) into a references/ file (e.g. references/signals.md) linked from the body, keeping SKILL.md as the tick-time overview.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and assumes competence with no filler concept explanations, but carries time-stamped incident rationale ("Two over-broad cleanups on 2026-11-05 removed other lanes' work", "user decision 2026-11-05") and a concrete version anecdote ("metaharness ^2.5.6 beat ruvector ^4.1.0") that could be trimmed. Efficient with minor instances that could be tightened, matching level 4 rather than level 5's 'every token earns its place'. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable throughout: exact commands like "$W queue --gate-top 20", "$W ledger record --repo R --candidate C --subject S --kind K --signal SK --outcome in_progress", "$W vuln-evidence X --dir <consumer> --affected \"<range>\"", the gcloud token retrieval, and jq queries for reading queue.json. Copy-paste ready and covering the common cases. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | "The tick (run in this order)" gives a numbered sequence with explicit checkpoints (record in_progress "so the repo stays busy and no later tick double-dispatches it"), validation feedback loops (gate "refuses (exit 2)... unless the ledger holds --outcome override", "weaver readme --lint README.md must pass", vuln-evidence "exits 2 when none falls inside the affected range"), and a hard-rules checklist. The batch/destructive operations all have validation, so no cap applies; only the odd '0.' step between 3 and 4 keeps it from being flawless, but it is explicitly labeled 'Run direct items first'. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist, so everything lives in a single well-sectioned file (Setup, The tick, Hard rules, Reading the queue) with no nested or buried references. Good structure and placement, but at ~155 dense lines the signal-type mapping and gate-scope details are candidates for a references/ split, so it falls short of level 5's 'content appropriately split'. | 4 / 5 |
