86%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.
The body is an exemplary instruction-only skill: a tightly sequenced review protocol with concrete heuristics, numeric confidence calibration, explicit exclusions to avoid duplicating sibling lenses, and zero padding. The only meaningful gap is the absence of a worked example showing the expected finding format.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and dense — 'The most common failure mode is building the wrong thing well' sets the role in one line, and every section (premise challenge, trajectory, alternatives, alignment, prioritization, calibration, exclusions) delivers non-obvious heuristics with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Nothing can be trimmed, matching the 'every token earns its place' anchor. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | The guidance is directly executable: 'For every plan, ask these three questions' with the exact questions, concrete alignment checks ('Orphan requirements', 'Unserved goals', 'Weak links'), and numeric calibration rules ('HIGH (0.80+)', 'Below 0.50: Suppress'). It sits at 'mostly executable... minor gaps' rather than 5 because no worked example of a finding or its expected output format is given. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is explicit and ordered — premise challenge is marked '(always first)', followed by trajectory, alternatives, alignment, and prioritization — with the confidence-calibration section acting as an explicit gating checkpoint ('Below 0.50: Suppress'). Missing an output-format or verify-then-refine step keeps it at 4 rather than 5; it is well above 3 because checkpoints are explicit, not implicit. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | At ~43 lines with no need for external reference files, the skill uses clear section headers and a well-organized single-file layout, which scores 5 under the simple-skill guideline for short skills requiring no bundle. All content is appropriately inline; there are no nested or buried references. | 5 / 5 |
