Discovery
67%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
The description effectively communicates specific capabilities and uses a distinct tool name that prevents conflicts. However, it lacks natural trigger terms users would actually say (like 'find places nearby' or 'restaurant search') and the 'Use for' clause focuses on output format rather than user intent scenarios.
Suggestions
Add natural trigger terms users would say, such as 'find restaurants', 'nearby businesses', 'location search', 'business reviews', or 'places near me'
Rewrite the 'Use for' clause to describe user intent scenarios: 'Use when the user asks to find places, look up business details, search for nearby locations, or retrieve place reviews'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'text search, place details, resolve, and reviews' - these are distinct, actionable capabilities that clearly describe what the skill does. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers 'what' (query Google Places API for text search, details, resolve, reviews) but the 'when' clause ('Use for human-friendly place lookup or JSON output') describes output format rather than explicit trigger scenarios like 'Use when user asks about finding businesses or locations'. | 2 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes some relevant terms like 'Google Places API', 'place lookup', 'goplaces CLI', but missing common user variations like 'find restaurants', 'nearby places', 'business info', 'location search', or 'maps'. | 2 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Very specific niche with 'Google Places API', 'goplaces CLI' - unlikely to conflict with other skills due to the specific tool and API mentioned. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
100%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is an exemplary skill file that maximizes information density while remaining clear and actionable. It assumes Claude's competence, provides executable commands for all common use cases, and organizes content logically. The notes section efficiently captures edge cases without bloating the main content.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Extremely lean and efficient. No unnecessary explanations of what Google Places API is or how CLIs work. Every line provides actionable information. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides complete, copy-paste ready commands for all common use cases. Installation, configuration, and usage examples are all concrete and executable. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | This is a simple, single-purpose CLI skill. Each command is self-contained and unambiguous. No multi-step workflows requiring validation checkpoints exist here. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | For a simple CLI skill under 50 lines, the content is well-organized with clear sections (Install, Config, Common commands, Notes). No external references needed for this scope. | 3 / 3 |
