93%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
An exemplary lean command-reference skill: every token is operational, commands are copy-paste ready, and troubleshooting is anchored to exact error strings with concrete fixes. The only minor gap is the absence of verification steps after state-changing commands like volume and grouping.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and assumes competence: a quick-start command list, a compact "Common tasks" section, and troubleshooting keyed to exact error strings. No concepts Claude already knows are explained, and every line (including the note that the UDP port is ephemeral but "sendto: no route to host" stays consistent) is operationally useful rather than padded. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is fully executable: concrete commands with flags and example values ("sonos status --name 'Kitchen'", "sonos volume set 15 --name 'Kitchen'", "sonos smapi search --service 'Spotify' --category tracks 'query'") plus exact error messages to match against and specific remediation steps (enable Local Network for the named parent process, or use a network-enabled sandbox). | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Structure is clear and well-sequenced (quick start → common tasks → notes → error-keyed troubleshooting with recovery advice), and nothing here is destructive or batch, so no hard cap applies. It falls short of 5 only because state-changing commands (volume set, group join/party) have no suggested verification step (e.g., re-running `sonos status` or `sonos group status` to confirm the change). | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist (references/, scripts/, assets/ are absent) and none are referenced, so there is no broken or buried navigation. Per the simple-skill guidance, a sub-50-line skill needs no external references; the body's well-organized sections (Quick start, Common tasks, Notes, Troubleshooting with per-error subsections) satisfy the top anchor. | 5 / 5 |
