Comprehensive documentation guide for Golang projects, covering godoc comments, README, CONTRIBUTING, CHANGELOG, Go Playground, Example tests, API docs, and llms.txt. Use when writing or reviewing doc comments, documentation, adding code examples, setting up doc sites, or discussing documentation best practices. Triggers for both libraries and applications/CLIs.

Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a strong skill description that clearly defines its scope (Golang documentation), lists specific artifacts and actions, and includes an explicit 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger terms. It effectively distinguishes itself through Go-specific terminology and covers both the 'what' and 'when' dimensions thoroughly. The description is concise yet comprehensive without unnecessary padding.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions and artifacts: godoc comments, README, CONTRIBUTING, CHANGELOG, Go Playground, Example tests, API docs, and llms.txt. These are clearly defined documentation types rather than vague references. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (comprehensive documentation guide covering godoc comments, README, CONTRIBUTING, CHANGELOG, etc.) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when writing or reviewing doc comments, documentation, adding code examples, setting up doc sites, or discussing documentation best practices'). Has an explicit 'Use when...' clause. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes strong natural keywords users would say: 'doc comments', 'documentation', 'code examples', 'doc sites', 'documentation best practices', 'godoc', 'README', 'CONTRIBUTING', 'CHANGELOG', 'libraries', 'applications/CLIs'. Good coverage of terms a Go developer would naturally use. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Clearly scoped to Golang project documentation specifically, with distinct triggers like 'godoc', 'Go Playground', 'Example tests', and 'llms.txt'. The combination of Go-specific terminology and documentation focus makes it unlikely to conflict with general coding skills or documentation skills for other languages. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured, comprehensive documentation skill with excellent progressive disclosure and actionability. The 10-step workflow provides clear sequencing, and concrete examples (doc comments, badges, installation commands) make it immediately usable. Minor verbosity in the introductory sections and some explanatory text that Claude doesn't need (e.g., explaining why documentation matters) prevent a perfect conciseness score.
Suggestions
Trim the persona/modes preamble and the introductory paragraph ('Good documentation makes code discoverable...') — Claude doesn't need motivation, just instructions.
Remove explanatory phrases like 'The code tells you what happens — the comment should explain why it exists' and instead let the example speak for itself.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is fairly well-organized but includes some unnecessary explanation (e.g., 'Good documentation makes code discoverable, understandable, and maintainable' and 'The code tells you what happens — the comment should explain why it exists'). The persona and modes section adds overhead. The checklist table is useful but could be tighter. Some content like 'A private project might not need...' is filler Claude can infer. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides concrete, executable examples throughout — the CalculateDiscount doc comment is a complete, copy-paste-ready example, badge markdown is templated with placeholders, installation commands are specific, and the README section order is explicit. The checklist table gives clear yes/no guidance per project type. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 10-step sequential workflow is clearly numbered and ordered by priority. Step 1 (detect project type) gates subsequent steps, the checklist in Step 2 provides a clear prioritized overview, and each subsequent step builds logically. The parallelization guidance for sub-agents adds practical workflow structure. While there aren't explicit validation checkpoints, the review mode and the nature of documentation work (non-destructive) makes this appropriate. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Excellent progressive disclosure — the main skill provides a clear overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references to separate files (references/library.md, references/application.md, references/code-comments.md, references/project-docs.md, assets/templates/). Cross-references to related skills are clearly noted at the top. Content is appropriately split between overview and detail. | 3 / 3 |
