67%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 well-structured, highly actionable routing and critical-rules overview that leverages progressive disclosure into six real reference files. Its main weaknesses are token weight from a stale-prone version table and one padded explanatory clause, plus slightly inconsistent reference link syntax.
Suggestions
Move the SDK version table and 'Latest Stripe API version' line into a dedicated 'Current versions' or 'deprecated/old patterns' section, or trim to a single pointer, so time-sensitive info does not inflate the always-loaded body.
Tighten the payment_method_types rule by cutting the marketing clause ('to dynamically display the most relevant eligible payment methods to each customer to maximize conversion') down to the actionable reason.
Standardize reference links — pick either markdown '[...](references/x.md)' or the angle-bracket form uniformly so navigation renders consistently.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient (tight routing table, bullet rules, no basic-concept padding) but includes time-sensitive token weight front-and-center (the 7-row SDK version table and 'Latest Stripe API version: 2026-08-26.dahlia') which the guideline penalizes when not in a deprecated section, plus a marketing-padded clause about dynamic payment methods 'to maximize conversion'. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Gives concrete, executable guidance — specific APIs per use case, exact parameter names (automatic_tax, payment_method_types, integration_identifier), copy-paste commands ('npm i -g @stripe/cli', 'stripe sandbox create', 'stripe whoami --format json'), and key prefixes (rk_ vs sk_) — with only minor gaps since full code examples live in the references. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The routing table provides a clear decision sequence (building X → use Y → read reference) and 'Read the relevant reference file before answering' plus the 'Before enabling automatic_tax... confirm the user has an active registration' rule act as validation checkpoints, though no explicit error-recovery feedback loops are present. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Clear overview split across six real one-level-deep reference files (payments, connect, billing, tax, treasury, security), each signaled from the routing table; held back from 5 by inconsistent reference syntax (mix of '<references/x.md>' angle-bracket notation and standard markdown links). | 4 / 5 |
