82%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.
A dense, well-structured instruction skill: concrete thresholds, named tooling, explicit decision rules, and a clearly phased workflow with strong reference navigation. The main costs are a duplicated metadata comment block, some trimmable rationale, and inline Multi-Engine detail that duplicates its own reference file.
Suggestions
Trim or collapse the CAPABILITIES_SUMMARY comment block and BIDIRECTIONAL_PARTNERS list, which duplicate the Recipes table and Collaboration section token-for-token.
Move the detailed Multi-Engine Mode mechanics (scoring semantics, degraded-mode rules) fully into reference/tri-engine-architect.md, keeping only activation triggers and the core never-merge rule inline.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and high-signal (e.g., "<5% healthy, 5-10% significant, >10% critical") with no explanations of concepts Claude already knows. Minor over-explanation exists: the CAPABILITIES_SUMMARY comment block and BIDIRECTIONAL_PARTNERS duplicate the Recipes and Collaboration sections, and some anti-pattern rationale could be trimmed. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | For an instruction-only skill the guidance is fully actionable: concrete thresholds ("allocate ≥15% of development time"), explicit decision rules ("high-frequency bidirectional → merge candidates; long cycles → extract shared logic"), named tools (ArchUnit, dependency-cruiser, NetArchTest), and defined scoring semantics (CONFIRMED 3/3, CONVERGENT, etc.). | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The SURVEY → PLAN → VERIFY → PRESENT table gives a clear sequence with per-phase key rules and a VERIFY validation checkpoint ("YAGNI check, Least Surprise test"). It falls short of 5 because the main workflow lacks explicit error-recovery feedback loops (only multi-engine degraded modes are addressed). | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Navigation is excellent: a Reference Map with a "Read this when" column, per-recipe "Read First" pointers, and one-level-deep references. Minor gaps remain — the inline Multi-Engine Mode section overlaps reference/tri-engine-architect.md, ten dense Core Contract rules could partly live in reference files, and the referenced bundle files are not present in this bundle to verify. | 4 / 5 |
