78%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 body is a well-structured, lean instruction-only skill: it defines the artifact, gives concrete format-design guidance and an implementation checklist, and offloads examples to two well-signaled reference files. Its only weaknesses are a trimmable motivational preamble and the lack of an explicit failure/retry loop in the main workflow.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and assumes competence, but "The Problem" section ("Specifications live in documents. They drift from reality because nothing enforces them.") restates motivation Claude already knows and could be trimmed to its three requirement bullets. This matches anchor 4 ('efficient; minor instances of over-explanation that could be trimmed') rather than anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, specific guidance throughout: the fixture template ("## Input / ## Output"), domain-to-format mappings ("Grid/spatial problems → ASCII art"), the implementation checklist ("1. Parser… 2. Formatter… 3. Single test file discovers and runs all fixtures"), and the '<5 seconds' validation test. Falls short of anchor 5 only because no inline example fixture or runner sketch appears in the body — the concrete examples live in the reference file. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is clear — write fixtures before implementation, one-time parser/formatter/runner setup, and 'Implementation is driven by making these specs pass' provides an implicit feedback loop, with 'Can someone validate correctness in <5 seconds?' as an explicit design checkpoint. Not anchor 5 because there is no explicit validate/fix/retry guidance in the body for when specs fail; no destructive or batch operations are involved, so no cap applies. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A clear overview appropriately split across real, one-level-deep references: both [references/approved-fixtures.md] and [references/approved-logs.md] exist as linked files, and related techniques are cleanly delegated to '/approval-tests' and '/nullables' instead of being inlined. This matches anchor 5 ('clear overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references; content appropriately split'). | 5 / 5 |
