coding-guidelines

Behavioral guidelines to reduce common LLM coding mistakes. Use when writing, modifying, or reviewing code — implementation tasks, code changes, refactoring, bug fixes, or feature development. Do NOT use for architecture design, documentation, or non-code tasks.

Content

86%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.

A tight, well-organized instruction-only skill that assumes Claude's competence and provides concrete behavioral guidance with a verification-oriented plan template. Its main gap is that some directives stay at the principle level rather than giving fully step-level execution detail.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and efficient throughout: terse bold summaries and bullet principles with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows, and every section earns its tokens.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete directives and copy-paste-ready transformations ('Add validation' → 'Write tests for invalid inputs, then make them pass') plus a plan template; a few bullets remain principle-level rather than step-level, leaving minor gaps.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Section 4 provides a sequenced plan template with per-step 'verify: [check]' checkpoints and goal-driven transformations; it is a template rather than a fully worked destructive-operation flow, so a couple of concrete checkpoints are implied rather than explicit.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

A single-purpose, well-sectioned skill (~70 lines, no external references needed) organized into four numbered sections with clear headers; no bundle files are present and none are warranted.

Description

87%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, well-scoped description that clearly states purpose, gives concrete trigger contexts, and adds explicit boundary guidance to avoid misuse. Minor room remains for sharper action specificity given its behavioral nature.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists several concrete trigger contexts — 'writing, modifying, or reviewing code' and 'implementation tasks, code changes, refactoring, bug fixes, or feature development' — but describes a behavioral domain rather than discrete tool actions, leaving minor coverage gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' ('Behavioral guidelines to reduce common LLM coding mistakes') and 'when' ('Use when writing, modifying, or reviewing code...'), and adds concrete anti-triggers ('Do NOT use for architecture design, documentation, or non-code tasks').

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural phrases users actually say are well covered ('refactoring', 'bug fixes', 'feature development', 'reviewing code'), with only a few common variants missing; file-extension terms are not applicable to a behavioral skill.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The explicit exclusion clause ('Do NOT use for architecture design, documentation, or non-code tasks') carves out a clear niche and substantially reduces overlap with adjacent skills.
