72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is concise and well-structured with operational vocabulary and a clear definition-of-done, but the grilling workflow's sequencing and validation checkpoints remain implicit rather than explicit, leaving actionability and workflow clarity at the mid level.
Suggestions
Make the grilling procedure explicitly stepwise: e.g., 1) interview the user's world (populate NOTES.md) if thin, 2) grill one question at a time with a recommended answer, 3) create/edit/delete specs, 4) push checkpoints right, 5) stop only when an implementer needs no questions.
Add an explicit validation/feedback loop for the spec (e.g., re-read the spec as an implementer would and list any remaining questions; if none, it is done) to lift workflow clarity.
Surface the concrete spec artifacts and where they live (workflows/*.md, NOTES.md) earlier as a quick-start overview so the actionable path is immediately visible.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The ~25-line body is lean and well-organized, defines only a focused vocabulary and lens, and assumes Claude's competence without padding or explaining concepts Claude already knows, matching the 'lean and efficient; every token earns its place' anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | It gives concrete discipline (one question at a time, each with a recommended answer), operational vocabulary definitions, and a clear definition-of-done, but the grilling procedure is partly descriptive rather than fully prescriptive, matching 'some concrete guidance but incomplete'. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The grill -> create/edit/delete specs -> push right -> done sequence is present with a termination checkpoint ('Definition of done'), but the sequencing between interviewing the user's world and writing specs and the validation checkpoints are largely implicit, matching 'steps listed but validation gaps; checkpoints missing or implicit'. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | With no bundle files present and the skill well under 50 lines, the body is cleanly split into well-organized sections (loop lens, vocabulary, definition of done, workspace) satisfying the simple-skill allowance for a 3 with good organization alone. | 3 / 3 |
