Content
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The content is highly actionable and workflow-rich with concrete commands, templates, and validation feedback loops, but it is a long monolithic document whose heavily repeated ledger/verification rules could be extracted into reference files and de-duplicated.
Suggestions
Extract the plan-shape, confidence-scorecard, and objection-ledger schemas into a reference file (e.g. `references/plan-shape.md`) and link to it, reducing the inline wall of text and lifting progressive disclosure.
De-duplicate the issue-ledger / ClawSweeper / verification rules that recur across 'Required Artifacts', 'Issue Ledger Pass', 'PR Reference And Issue Accounting', 'Pass Schedule', and 'Pressure Passes' into a single canonical statement with cross-references, to improve conciseness.
Keep the executable commands and pass schedule up front; move the long 'Read First' file enumeration into a checklist reference so the core workflow stays lean.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is ~1250 lines of dense policy that does not teach basics Claude already knows, but the issue-ledger, ClawSweeper, and verification rules are restated across 'Required Artifacts', 'Issue Ledger Pass', 'PR Reference And Issue Accounting', 'Pass Schedule', and 'Pressure Passes', so it could be tightened substantially — 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation or could be tightened'. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | It provides fully executable commands (`node .agents/skills/autogoal/scripts/create-goal-scratchpad.mjs --template slate-plan`, `rg -n "..." .tmp/slate-v2/...`, `bun --filter slate ...`), concrete goal/plan templates, and exact table schemas, matching the 'fully executable code/commands; copy-paste ready' anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 12-pass schedule plus a pass-state ledger, conjunctive closure gates, and a verification feedback loop (run the `.tmp/slate-v2` command, record result, keep pending on failure, fix and re-validate) match the 'clear sequence with explicit validation steps; feedback loops' anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Sections are well organized and references to repo files (e.g. `docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md`, `docs/slate-v2/ledgers/*`) are one level deep, but SKILL.md is itself a monolithic inline wall of policy with no bundle files splitting the plan-shape, scoring, and objection-ledger detail out, so it is 'some structure but content that should be separate is inline'. | 2 / 3 |
