skill-designer

Design new Claude skills from structured idea specifications. Use when the skill auto-generation pipeline needs to produce a Claude CLI prompt that creates a complete skill directory (SKILL.md, references, scripts, tests) following repository conventions.

Quality

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 well-structured, lean skill body with fully executable commands, a clearly sequenced workflow, and exemplary progressive disclosure into verified bundle files. The only minor gaps are slight redundancy between the Resources and Workflow sections and the absence of an explicit error-recovery loop or stated score threshold in the validation step.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is efficient and assumes Claude's competence — no explanations of concepts Claude already knows, short operational sections, and no padding. It falls just short of the 5 anchor because the Resources section and Step 2's description of the script redundantly enumerate the same reference files.

4 / 5

Actionability

The guidance is fully executable: copy-paste-ready bash commands with exact flags and paths ('python3 skills/skill-designer/scripts/build_design_prompt.py --idea-json /tmp/idea.json --skill-name "my-new-skill" --project-root .'), including the complete pipeline invocation piped into 'claude -p --allowedTools Read,Edit,Write,Glob,Grep'. This matches the 5 anchor's copy-paste-ready coverage of the common case.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear four-step sequence (prepare spec, build prompt, feed to CLI, validate) with concrete commands at each stage and a validation step listing explicit checks (SKILL.md exists with correct frontmatter, structure conventions, reviewer score). It misses the 5 anchor because there is no error-recovery/feedback loop and 'meets threshold' does not state the actual threshold; it is well above the 3 anchor since checkpoints are explicit.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The body is a genuine overview that pushes all detail to three one-level-deep reference files and a script, each listed in the Resources section with a clear purpose description, and all referenced paths (references/skill-structure-guide.md, references/quality-checklist.md, references/skill-template.md, scripts/build_design_prompt.py) verified to exist in the bundle. This matches the 5 anchor's well-signaled, easy-to-navigate structure.

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 description that clearly and explicitly states both what the skill does and when to use it, with concrete deliverables enumerated. Its main weaknesses are mild internal jargon in the trigger clause and minor overlap risk with general skill-authoring skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description lists several concrete actions ('Design new Claude skills from structured idea specifications', 'produce a Claude CLI prompt that creates a complete skill directory (SKILL.md, references, scripts, tests)') with enumerated deliverables. It falls short of the 5 anchor only because coverage is not fully comprehensive (e.g., validation/scoring of generated skills is not mentioned), and it is clearly above the 3 anchor's '1-2 concrete actions'.

4 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both questions: the 'what' is concrete (designs skills and produces a CLI prompt that creates a complete skill directory) and the 'when' is an explicit 'Use when' clause with a concrete trigger ('when the skill auto-generation pipeline needs to produce a Claude CLI prompt'). This matches the 5 anchor rather than 4, whose 'when' is merely serviceable.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Good keyword coverage including natural terms like 'design', 'skill', 'create', 'skill directory', and 'idea specification', but 'skill auto-generation pipeline' is internal jargon users would not naturally say, and common variations like 'new skill' or 'bootstrap a skill' are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The pipeline-driven skill-generation niche is mostly distinct with specific triggers, but 'Design new Claude skills' has minor overlap risk with any generic skill-authoring helper skill, keeping it below the 5 anchor's 'clear niche with minimal conflict risk'.
