diagnosing-sbx-sandboxes

Work out why a Docker Sandbox cannot reach a host, install a package, keep a file, or start at all. Use when a download or clone fails inside sbx, a credential is rejected, a sandbox is killed or stops on its own, or something written inside it disappeared.

Quality

Content

96%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An exceptionally dense, high-signal troubleshooting reference: executable commands for every failure mode, an explicit triage-then-confirm-then-escalate workflow, and no filler. The only structural weakness is that the breadth lives entirely in one inline file with cross-skill links woven into prose rather than a clear navigation layer.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and dense throughout: a symptom→cause table, terse explanations only of non-obvious internals (e.g. "urllib3 and aiohttp.ClientSession() ignore HTTPS_PROXY"), and no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Every entry carries a fact that is not derivable from general knowledge, matching the lean anchor.

5 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable commands cover the common cases: "sbx policy check network api.example.com", "git config --global --add safe.directory '%(prefix)///wsl.localhost/...'", "update-ca-certificates", the mv/ln -s disk-reclaim recipe, and the rm -rf state-directory paths per OS. Copy-paste ready with concrete values.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Explicit diagnostic sequence with validation checkpoints: triage first ("Start here... sbx policy log / sbx diagnose"), confirm-before-guessing ("Three commands settle it", "Confirm with git -C <path> rev-parse --show-toplevel"), and a numbered escalation ladder explicitly ordered by destructiveness with the safer --preserve-secrets variant and a stop-everything-first precondition. Feedback and safety checks are explicit.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized one-level sections with clear symptom-group headers and a quick-start entry point, but roughly 250 lines are all inlined in a single file and cross-skill pointers (creating-sbx-kits, creating-sbx-templates, governing-sbx-fleets) are embedded in prose rather than clearly signaled navigation. Good structure with minor organization gaps, matching anchor 4 rather than 5.

Description

95%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description: concrete what-and-when, natural trigger phrasing, third-person imperative voice, and a well-bounded diagnostic niche. The only minor gap is that the enumerated failure modes summarize rather than comprehensively sample the skill's coverage.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists several specific concrete capability scopes ("cannot reach a host, install a package, keep a file, or start at all") tied to concrete failure symptoms. It sits just below anchor 5 because the diagnostic scope is summarized by a single verb and does not hint at the full breadth of failure modes the skill covers (e.g. git-mode surprises, memory limits, persistence rules).

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers "what" ("Work out why a Docker Sandbox cannot reach a host, install a package, keep a file, or start at all") and "when" via an explicit "Use when..." clause with concrete trigger phrases, exactly matching the anchor-5 pattern.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural user phrasings are comprehensive and varied: "a download or clone fails", "a credential is rejected", "a sandbox is killed or stops on its own", "something written inside it disappeared". These mirror how a user would actually describe the problem, matching the top anchor.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche (Docker Sandbox / sbx diagnostics) with distinct, failure-symptom-based triggers; minimal overlap risk with adjacent container or git skills.
