85%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-engineered instruction skill: a clear sequenced flow with genuine validation checkpoints and a clean one-level-deep reference structure whose files all exist. The body is dense and project-specific; its only costs are triple-statement of the headline rules and a few mechanics (worktree setup, PR creation) left implicit to the memory loop.
Suggestions
Collapse the ground-truth rule to one authoritative statement (e.g., P1) and have the callout and 'Hard nevers' reference it, cutting ~10 lines of repetition; same for the triple-stated never-auto-merge rule.
Add a short concrete command block for the worktree/branch/PR mechanics (create learn/<sha> off origin/main, push, open PR) so the skill is self-sufficient when run outside the memory loop.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and assumes competence — no known-concept explanations — but core rules are stated three times (the ground-truth callout + P1 + 'Never write memory for uncommitted or planned work'; auto-merge in the intro + P8 + 'Never auto-merge'), which is trimmable redundancy rather than the lean ideal. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete guidance throughout — exact paths ('.claude/skills/expert/references/*.md', 'scripts/lints/', 'scripts/local-checks.sh'), the invocation command 'claude -p "/learn --since <sha> --sha <sha>"', the 2/3 threshold, and a real validation script — but worktree/branch/PR mechanics are delegated to the memory loop rather than specified, leaving minor gaps. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps 0–6 are clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints: idempotency pre-check via 'git ls-remote origin learn/<sha>', 'The drafted lint MUST pass against the just-merged code before you include it — run it; if it fails on current main it's wrong', and Step 5's re-run of lints plus 'scripts/check-agents-md.sh' — with feedback loops (extend-not-vote on P7 edits, discard sub-threshold votes). | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A clear overview with five well-signaled, one-level-deep references — each listed with its purpose under 'How to run this skill' and cited inline at the relevant philosophy item — plus the executable 'scripts/check-agents-md.sh'; all referenced files exist in the bundle and detail is appropriately split out. | 5 / 5 |
