75%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.
A well-organized, actionable reconnaissance skill with a clear two-phase workflow and a precise output template. It stays lean and assumes Claude's competence, with only minor conciseness and actionability gaps.
Suggestions
Tighten the opening narrative ('You are performing the first phase... This is pure reconnaissance.') into a single directive line to recover tokens.
Add 1-2 concrete exploration commands or search patterns (e.g., grep for auth middleware, route decorators) to make Phase 1 more executable.
Consider a brief self-check step at the end (e.g., 'verify architecture.md lists every entry point found in Phase 1') to add an explicit validation checkpoint.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is efficient and assumes Claude's competence, listing concrete recon targets without explaining basic concepts, though the narrative framing ('You are performing the first phase...', 'This is pure reconnaissance') could be trimmed slightly. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | It gives concrete, specific guidance — named file types (package.json, requirements.txt, go.mod), distinct phases, and a complete markdown output template — though it provides no executable exploration commands, leaving minor gaps for an instruction-only skill. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The two-phase sequence (Technology Reconnaissance, then Architecture Mapping) with a confirmation checkpoint ('Then drill into source code to confirm findings') is clear and well-ordered; the destructive/batch cap does not apply since the only output is a single documentation file. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is self-contained with no bundle files and is organized into clearly labeled phases and an output template; structure is good though the inline template and reminder list could in principle be split out. | 4 / 5 |
