Conciseness

The body is lean and token-efficient, with concrete tool invocations and no explanatory padding of concepts Claude already knows; the only mild fluff is the intro phrase 'with confidence', which does not materially inflate the content.

Actionability

It provides specific, executable guidance with concrete tool names and parameters (e.g., '`refactor_tool` with mode="rename"', '`get_minimal_context(task="<your task>")`'), matching 'Fully executable code/commands; specific examples; copy-paste ready'.

Workflow Clarity

A clear 5-step sequence is paired with explicit validation checkpoints ('Always preview before applying', 'run `detect_changes_tool` to verify the refactoring impact'), satisfying the 'Clear sequence with explicit validation steps' anchor for a risky refactoring operation.

Progressive Disclosure

The skill is under 50 lines with no external references and is organized into clear sections (Steps, Safety Checks, Token Efficiency Rules), which the rubric permits to score 3 for simple skills without bundle files.

Specificity

Names the domain ('safe refactoring') and some actions ('Plan and execute', 'using dependency analysis') but does not enumerate multiple concrete actions, matching the 'Names domain and some actions, but not comprehensive' anchor.

Completeness

It states what the skill does but provides no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent explicit trigger guidance, so per the judging guidelines completeness is capped at 2.

Trigger Term Quality

'refactoring' is a natural user term, but 'dependency analysis' is technical jargon and common variations (e.g., 'rename', 'restructure', 'clean up code') are absent, fitting 'Some relevant keywords but missing common variations'.

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The 'safe refactoring using dependency analysis' niche is somewhat specific and unlikely to broadly conflict, but the absence of explicit distinct triggers leaves it overlapping with general code-editing skills.
