60%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.
The body is a short, clearly organized overview with a proper one-level-deep pointer to references/rule.md for implementation details. Its weaknesses are redundancy — the same Intl guidance restated across four sections plus an intro explaining locale variation Claude already knows — and the absence of any inline executable example or detection pattern.
Suggestions
Consolidate the near-verbatim repetition of the Intl.NumberFormat/DateTimeFormat/Collator guidance across 'Quick Reference', 'Check', 'Fix', and 'Code Review' into one authoritative section, and drop the locale-format examples from the intro.
Include a minimal inline snippet (e.g., a one-line Intl.NumberFormat call or a concrete pattern for spotting hardcoded symbols) so the body is actionable without opening the reference.
Add a verification step after 'Fix', such as confirming the formatted output against several locales before considering the change complete.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The intro paragraph explains locale formatting differences Claude already knows ('a value formatted as "$1,234.56" in the US is written "1.234,56 $" in Germany'), and the same Intl.NumberFormat/DateTimeFormat/Collator guidance is repeated nearly verbatim across 'Quick Reference', 'Check', 'Fix', and 'Code Review'. It is mostly efficient but includes unnecessary explanation and could be tightened — matching the score-3 anchor rather than the minor-trimming score-4 anchor. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The body names the exact APIs to use ('Intl.NumberFormat', 'Intl.DateTimeFormat', 'Intl.Collator', 'resolve a supported fallback locale') but contains no inline code, no detection patterns for manual formatting, and no example of a fallback chain — key execution details are all deferred to references/rule.md. This is concrete-but-incomplete guidance, matching the score-3 anchor ('missing key details') rather than the mostly-executable score-4 anchor. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The Check → Fix → Explain → Code Review sequence is clearly laid out and unambiguous for this simple review skill, with each section stating exactly what to identify and replace. However, no verification checkpoint exists (e.g., confirming formatted output across multiple locales after fixing), which leaves minor validation gaps — the score-4 anchor rather than the explicit-validation score-5 anchor. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is a short, well-sectioned overview that correctly delegates implementation details to a real one-level-deep bundle file, clearly signaled as 'For full implementation details, code examples, and framework-specific guidance, see references/rule.md'. The reference is only signaled once at the bottom rather than from the sections where the details apply, a minor organization gap matching the score-4 anchor rather than the well-labeled-per-topic score-5 pattern. | 4 / 5 |
