90%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.
Excellent instructional content: dense, token-efficient tool tables and copy-paste-ready commands with no filler, plus a properly sequenced host-setup procedure with approval checkpoints. The only gaps are minor — no verification steps around create/delete_space and an ssh setup procedure that could be split into a reference file.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and assumes competence: tool tables carry one-line descriptions, the host-setup procedure gives exact commands with no preamble, and there is no explanation of concepts Claude already knows (e.g., 'Tailscale is only the ssh transport, the same as any LAN or internet address' is a one-line product-specific clarification, not padding). Every token carries cua-specific information, matching anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is copy-paste ready throughout: 'curl -fsSL https://cua.ai/install.sh | sh -s -- -y --select spaces,host --no-onboarding', 'cua auth login --remote', 'cua host setup --share spaces --name "<name>"', 'cua spaces create macos:26 --on "<name>" --count 2', 'cua share space:dev:3000', plus exact tool parameters like create_space(on="host:<name>", count=2) and on = local|aws|gcp|modal|host:<name>. Per the scoring notes, an instruction-only skill with this level of concrete guidance matches anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The host setup is a clear 6-step numbered sequence with an explicit approval checkpoint (show the device code and URL, have the user approve), and risky operations have checkpoints (teleport_manifest with explicit acknowledgement before teleport_app; open a link once to check it works before sending). It falls short of anchor 5 because the day-to-day flow is presented as tool tables rather than a sequenced workflow, and there is no verify step after create_space or before the destructive delete_space. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Sections are well-organized and scannable (Get a Space / Work in it / Show it / Agents, apps and network / ssh host setup / Rules / Links), with no nested or buried references and nothing that is bulky reference material inlined. It does not reach anchor 5 — the ~90-line body exceeds the under-50-line simple-skill exception and the specialized ssh host-setup procedure (~25 lines) is inlined where a one-level reference file could carry it — but anchor 4's 'good structure, most content appropriately placed, minor organization gaps' fits. | 4 / 5 |
