92%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 lean instruction-only skill: well-sectioned, concrete output template, explicit ambiguity and missing-file handling, and a clear brevity principle. The only meaningful gap is the truncated fallback command and a couple of under-specified extraction pointers (e.g., where verification evidence lives).
Suggestions
Complete the fallback command instead of truncating it with "..." so it is copy-paste runnable, or replace it with the exact argument(s) to pass to create-goal-scratchpad.mjs.
Specify where each "What to Show" item comes from in the plan file (e.g., which table/heading holds verification evidence and error attempts) to remove ambiguity during extraction.
Optionally state the expected docs/plans filename convention (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD-goal.md) so the "most relevant recent" selection rule is deterministic.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is ~50 lean lines with no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every section (What to Show, Status Icons, Output Format, fallback, brevity note) earns its place. Not level 4 because there are no meaningful instances of over-explanation to trim. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete guidance throughout: an exact output-format template, a status-icon mapping table, a fallback message, and a specific script path. Not level 5 because the fallback command "node .agents/skills/autogoal/scripts/create-goal-scratchpad.mjs ..." is truncated with "..." and is not copy-paste executable, and "latest verification evidence" gives no pointer to where it lives in the plan file. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | This is a simple, non-destructive single-task skill and the single action is unambiguous: locate the active plan (with an explicit disambiguation checkpoint — "if ambiguous, list the likely files and ask" — and a no-files fallback), then render the defined output format. Not level 4 because the sequence, checkpoints, and error-recovery branches are all explicitly present. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is a single well-organized file with clear section headers and no need for external references; no bundle files (references/, scripts/, assets/) exist, so nothing is inappropriately inlined or buried. Per the simple-skill scoring note, well-organized sections alone warrant a 5 here. | 5 / 5 |
