Quality

Content

72%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.

The body is concise and well-organized for a simple single-purpose skill, but the actual operations lack executable commands and the workflow is not sequenced with an explicit validation loop. The verification reminder is a good but incomplete checkpoint.

Suggestions

Add concrete executable commands or a script reference for cleaning loop state/worktree references and recording the event, so the guidance is copy-paste ready.

Lay out the steps as an explicit numbered sequence (clean state -> record event -> verify) with a validate-and-retry loop.

Specify how to verify completion concretely (e.g. the exact command/output to check) rather than only stating 'do not claim completion without evidence'.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean with no concept over-explanation; every line states a concrete instruction or constraint, assuming Claude's competence.

5 / 5

Actionability

The guidance is specific (named paths like '~/.pua/config.json', concrete constraints) but provides no executable commands or scripts for how to clean state or record the event, leaving key details missing.

3 / 5

Workflow Clarity

There is a verification cue ('Do not claim completion without command/output evidence') but the state-cleanup/config-modification steps are not sequenced and there is no validate-then-fix feedback loop, capping it at 3 per the destructive-operation guideline.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

This is a short single-purpose skill under 50 lines with no need for external references, and the content is well-organized under a clear heading.

Description

37%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.

The description identifies the skill by its invocation identifiers and names a couple of actions, but it is vague on what the skill actually does and lacks any 'Use when...' trigger guidance. Trigger terms are technical identifiers rather than natural user language.

Suggestions

Lead with the concrete capability, e.g. 'Cancels the active PUA loop by cleaning loop state/worktree references and recording the event' instead of describing it as an alias/mapping.

Add a 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger phrases a user would actually say (e.g. 'Use when the user wants to stop or cancel a running PUA loop').

Include natural synonyms alongside the technical identifiers (e.g. 'stop the loop', 'cancel PUA') so it matches user language.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and a couple concrete actions (Codex subcommand mapping, '$pua-cancel-loop' invocation), but never states the actual capability (cancelling the PUA loop), so it is not comprehensive.

3 / 5

Completeness

The 'what' is vague (described as an alias/mapping rather than the cancel action) and there is no 'Use when...' trigger clause, matching the anchor with a vague what and no when.

2 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Only contains technical invocation identifiers ('/pua:cancel-loop', '$pua-cancel-loop') rather than natural phrases a user would say when they need this skill, and no synonyms are present.

2 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The '/pua:cancel-loop' and '$pua-cancel-loop' identifiers carve a clear niche with minor overlap risk among related PUA skills, though lacking explicit 'Use when' trigger phrases keeps it from a 5.
