Quality

Content

92%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-sequenced instruction skill: copy-paste CLI commands, explicit validation gates before an irreversible operation, provenance and undo guidance, and clean organization with no bundle-file overhead. The only trims available are a couple of meta/roadmap sentences that don't affect execution.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is largely lean and imperative, but a few tokens could be trimmed: the roadmap note "It lives in this plugin for now; the broader distribute workflow... may absorb parts of this later" is meta-commentary irrelevant to execution, and "Wrapping and publishing someone else's work is a real sensitivity, surface it" restates the prior sentence. These are minor instances rather than the padded sections of anchor 3, so it sits at 4.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands cover every step: `tessl plugin lint <plugin-dir>`, `tessl plugin publish <plugin-dir> --dry-run`, `tessl plugin publish <plugin-dir>`, `--bump patch|minor|major`, `tessl plugin unpublish`, `tessl plugin archive`, plus auth handling (`tessl login`, `TESSL_TOKEN`) and the live-CLI check (`tessl plugin publish --help`).

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The numbered sequence (confirm visibility → provenance → lint/dry-run → publish) includes explicit validation checkpoints (lint, --dry-run, "Fix all issues") before the irreversible publish step, a hard confirmation gate ("Never publish without an explicit yes"), undo guidance, and a "When to stop" termination criterion. Validation is present, so the destructive-operation cap at 3 does not apply.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The skill is under 50 lines with no bundle files (no references/, scripts/, or assets/ exist) and no content that warrants extraction to separate files; sections are clearly headed and easy to navigate, satisfying the simple-skill exception.

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 description: explicit what-and-when structure, natural trigger phrasing, and a clearly scoped niche in Tessl registry publishing. The only weaknesses are unmentioned auxiliary operations (version bump, undo) and a slight terminology mismatch between "composition" and the body's "plugin" vocabulary.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Lints it, confirms private/public visibility, and publishes" lists several concrete, distinct actions in the Tessl-registry domain, but auxiliary operations like version bumping and unpublish/archive are not mentioned, leaving minor gaps in coverage. It exceeds anchor 3 (only 1-2 concrete actions) because three specific actions plus re-publish are named.

4 / 5

Completeness

Both questions are explicitly answered: what ("Lints it, confirms private/public visibility, and publishes") and when ("Use when a composition is built and the user wants to share it, to publish or re-publish it to the Tessl registry"). This matches the anchor-5 example structure with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural trigger phrases are present — "wants to share it", "publish or re-publish", "Tessl registry" — matching what a user would actually say. It falls short of anchor 5 because common synonyms like "release" or "make it installable" are missing, and "composition" is used where users would more naturally say "plugin".

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

"publish or re-publish it to the Tessl registry" carves out a clear niche with distinct triggers; it would not fire for general plugin-authoring, linting, or distribution-management skills. Conflict risk is minimal.
