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.
This is a well-engineered process skill: a clearly sequenced ingest workflow with explicit validation and safety checkpoints around its destructive and batch operations (hash-gated re-ingest, guarded _raw/ deletion, closing checklist), and copy-paste-ready commands, templates, and file specs throughout. It stays lean with only minor justificatory asides. The main structural gap is that most detail lives inline in a long SKILL.md with just one reference file, plus dependence on the external llm-wiki skill for templates and provenance conventions.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and operational — hash-verification logic, deletion-safety rules, exact frontmatter fields, templates — with only minor justificatory asides that could be trimmed, e.g. "the wiki's value depends on the user being able to tell signal from synthesis" and "That's expected — the provenance markers exist precisely to surface this". Not 5 because a handful of rationale sentences and parenthetical explanations exceed what is strictly needed for an actor that already understands hashing and timestamp drift; not 3 because there is no concept-explaining padding and nearly every section is actionable instruction. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable, copy-paste-ready guidance throughout: the exact hash command "sha256sum -- \"<file>\" (or shasum -a 256 on macOS)" with shell-safety quoting rules, a complete mcp__qmd__query invocation block, a full .manifest.json entry template, a log.md entry format, a hot.md template, and concrete file paths and frontmatter field specs (e.g. "summary: ... 1–2 sentences, ≤200 characters"). Specific examples cover the common cases (new vs. modified sources, image sources, raw drafts); nothing below 5 fits since the guidance is concrete and complete. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced 7-step process with explicit validation checkpoints: content-hash verification gates re-ingest decisions, "Before deleting, verify the resolved path is inside $OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH/_raw/" guards the destructive raw-mode deletion, and a closing Quality Checklist verifies outcomes. Error-recovery guidance is present ("If your model doesn't support vision, skip image sources and tell the user which files were skipped", "Resolve any contradictions... note them if unresolvable"). The destructive/batch cap at 3 does not apply because validation is present, and the anchor-5 checklist-plus-explicit-validation pattern is matched; not 4 because checkpoints are explicit rather than implicit at every risky step. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Good structure against the actual bundle: the body's single reference — "Read `references/ingest-prompts.md` for the LLM prompt templates used during extraction" — is a real, clearly signaled file exactly one level deep, and the body is organized into well-labeled sections (modes, steps, checklist, reference). Not 5 because the ~245-line body inlines substantial material that could live in references (the full QMD query block, the hot.md template, the manifest schema) and it depends on out-of-bundle resources (the llm-wiki skill's page template and provenance conventions, .env.example) without those being present; not 3 because the one reference that does exist is clearly signaled in a dedicated Reference section and the inline content is workflow-essential rather than misplaced. | 4 / 5 |
