Discovery
50%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 for Sonos speaker control with good distinctiveness due to the product-specific focus. However, it critically lacks explicit trigger guidance ('Use when...') and could benefit from additional natural keywords users might say when wanting to control their speakers.
Suggestions
Add a 'Use when...' clause with trigger terms like 'play music on Sonos', 'control my speakers', 'adjust speaker volume', 'group speakers together'
Include additional natural keywords users might say: 'music', 'audio', 'pause', 'skip track', 'smart speaker', 'home audio'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions in parentheses: discover, status, play, volume, and group. These are clear, actionable capabilities for speaker control. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Describes what it does (control Sonos speakers with specific actions) but completely lacks a 'Use when...' clause or any explicit trigger guidance for when Claude should select this skill. | 1 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes 'Sonos speakers' which is a strong natural keyword, but missing common variations users might say like 'music', 'audio', 'pause', 'skip', 'playlist', or 'smart speaker'. | 2 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | 'Sonos speakers' is a very specific product/domain that creates a clear niche. Unlikely to conflict with other skills unless there are multiple Sonos-related skills. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 9 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
87%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-crafted CLI reference skill that is concise, actionable, and well-organized. The troubleshooting section adds significant value by providing specific error messages and platform-specific solutions. The only minor weakness is the lack of explicit workflow guidance for multi-step operations like grouping speakers.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Extremely lean and efficient. No unnecessary explanations of what Sonos is or how CLI tools work. Every line provides actionable information Claude needs. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, copy-paste ready commands for all common operations. Commands are complete with flags and examples, not pseudocode or vague descriptions. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Commands are listed but there's no explicit workflow sequence or validation steps. For a CLI reference this is acceptable, but grouping operations or multi-step tasks could benefit from explicit sequencing. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized with clear sections (Quick start, Common tasks, Notes, Troubleshooting). For a skill under 50 lines with no need for external references, this structure is appropriate and easy to navigate. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 11 / 12 Passed |
Validation
72%Checks the skill against the spec for correct structure and formatting. All validation checks must pass before discovery and implementation can be scored.
