100%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is an excellent skill that demonstrates how to write actionable, concise guidance. It teaches a specific methodology (archaeology with confidence tagging) through concrete examples rather than abstract explanation. The worked Perl example is particularly strong—it shows exactly what good output looks like with real confidence markers and hazard identification.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Every section earns its place. The reliability table is dense and useful, the worked example demonstrates rather than explains, and there's no padding about what legacy code is or why documentation matters. Claude's intelligence is respected throughout. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete code examples (C function trace, Perl summary), specific shell commands for archaeology, and a copy-paste-ready output format. The worked example shows exactly what a good summary looks like with real confidence tags. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear three-step process (trace data → check callers → mark confidence) with explicit sequencing. The confidence tagging system provides built-in validation checkpoints, and the 'Do not' section prevents common workflow errors. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized with clear sections: evidence hierarchy, steps, worked example, tools reference, anti-patterns, and output format. Content is appropriately inline for a skill of this scope—no need for external files, and the tables provide quick-reference density. | 3 / 3 |
