Quality

Content

82%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 well-structured, actionable skill body with executable commands, a clear three-step workflow, and well-signaled references to real bundle files. Minor tightening and an explicit retry loop would lift it further.

Suggestions

Add an explicit feedback loop in Step 3 for the REVIEW_REQUIRED path (e.g., 'fix the flagged inputs, re-run the gate, and only proceed on GO').

Trim the Rules and Outputs sections by moving edge-case detail into the existing references file to reduce the main-body token footprint.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is well-organized and assumes Claude's competence, with concrete examples and minimal padding; a few sections like Rules and Outputs could be tightened slightly.

4 / 5

Actionability

It provides fully executable, copy-paste-ready CLI invocations with all flags, a concrete JSON answers example, and a clear decision table covering the common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Steps 1-3 are clearly sequenced with explicit interpretation checkpoints (REVIEW_REQUIRED review-before-order, exit code semantics), though a single explicit fix-and-retry loop would push it to 5.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The body is an overview with a Resources section clearly signaling real one-level-deep references (discipline_gate_framework.md, the CLI script); bulk rule detail sits appropriately in the main file with framework notes delegated.

Description

83%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, specific description that names concrete blocking rules and the journaling side effect, with an embedded pre-order trigger. It would benefit from broader natural trigger phrasing and a more explicit 'Use when' framing.

Suggestions

Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause enumerating the natural situations a trader would name (e.g., 'Use when about to place a manual entry order, after a recent loss, or when upstream exposure/circuit-breaker decisions are available').

Broaden trigger terms with everyday synonyms (e.g., 'before placing an order', 'entry ticket', 'risk check') alongside the domain jargon.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description names the domain and lists multiple concrete actions: 'blocking planless, oversized, revenge-risk, market-regime-blocked, or circuit-breaker-blocked entries' plus 'journaling the decision for trader-memory-core review', giving comprehensive coverage.

5 / 5

Completeness

It clearly states the 'what' and embeds an explicit trigger ('before manual order entry') serving as the 'when', but the trigger is a single condition rather than a fuller 'Use when...' enumeration.

4 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

It includes natural trader-facing terms like 'pre-trade checklist', 'manual order entry', 'revenge-risk', and 'circuit-breaker', but is somewhat jargon-heavy and misses a few common synonyms a user might say.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The pre-trade discipline-gate niche with distinct triggers (revenge-risk, circuit-breaker, exposure-coach) makes it clearly distinguishable with minimal conflict risk.
