Quality

Discovery

85%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is a strong skill description that clearly specifies capabilities, platform, and tool while providing explicit trigger guidance. The main weakness is the trigger term coverage, which could include more natural variations of how users might ask about notes. The description uses proper third-person voice and is concise yet informative.

Suggestions

Expand trigger terms to include common variations like 'Apple Notes', 'notes app', 'jot down', 'write a note', or 'save a note' to improve discoverability.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'create, view, edit, delete, search, move, and export notes'. Also specifies the tool ('memo CLI') and platform ('macOS').

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both what ('Manage Apple Notes via the memo CLI...create, view, edit, delete, search, move, and export notes') and when ('Use when a user asks...to add a note, list notes, search notes, or manage note folders').

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural terms like 'add a note', 'list notes', 'search notes', 'manage note folders', but missing common variations like 'Apple Notes', 'notes app', 'jot down', 'write a note', or 'save a note'.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive with specific triggers: 'Apple Notes', 'memo CLI', 'macOS', and 'note folders'. Unlikely to conflict with generic document or text skills.

Implementation

72%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a concise, well-structured CLI reference that efficiently documents the memo notes commands. However, the heavy reliance on interactive prompts limits actionability for automation scenarios, and the skill lacks workflow examples showing how to chain operations or handle errors.

Suggestions

Add non-interactive command examples if available (e.g., piping content to create notes without interactive editor)

Include expected output examples for commands like `memo notes` and `memo notes -s` to help Claude parse results

Add error handling guidance for common failures (permission denied, note with attachments, folder not found)

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The content is lean and efficient, presenting only essential commands and flags without explaining what Apple Notes is or how CLI tools work. Every section delivers actionable information without padding.

3 / 3

Actionability

Commands are concrete and copy-paste ready, but the interactive nature of many commands (-a, -e, -d, -m, -ex) means Claude can't fully automate workflows. Missing examples of non-interactive usage or expected outputs.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Individual commands are clear, but there's no guidance on multi-step workflows (e.g., create then move to folder), no validation steps, and no error handling guidance for when interactive prompts fail or permissions are denied.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

For a simple CLI reference skill under 50 lines, the content is well-organized with clear section headers. No external references needed; the flat structure is appropriate for the scope.
