70%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 a well-sequenced, highly actionable workflow with strong validation checkpoints, but it is held back by verbosity (a duplicated review prompt) and weak progressive disclosure (no bundle files; large reference-style content inlined). Actionability is strong with only minor executable gaps.
Suggestions
De-duplicate the reviewer prompt: extract the shared prompt template into a reference file (e.g. references/review-prompt.md) and have Steps 2 and 5 reference it with their round-specific deltas, removing ~45 lines of repetition.
Move the edit-whitelist specification (schema, resolution rules, glob semantics, detectors) into a separate references/edit-whitelist.md and keep only a concise summary plus a pointer in SKILL.md, improving progressive disclosure.
Complete the Step 4.5 normalization script by implementing the theorem-block comparison logic instead of leaving it as a comment stub, so the regression check is copy-paste executable.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly high-signal domain guidance, but the ~45-line reviewer prompt is duplicated verbatim between Step 2 and Step 5, and several "Empirical motivation" paragraphs are padded, so it could be tightened rather than being lean throughout. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete latexmk/pdfinfo/grep commands, full MCP call templates, and fix-pattern tables, but the Step 4.5 Python snippet defines normalize() and leaves the actual comparison logic as a comment stub, and review prompts carry unfilled [VENUE]/[list files] placeholders. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear Step 0 through Step 9 sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (recompile verification, restatement regression test, format-check stop criteria, edit-whitelist gate) and feedback loops for error recovery, satisfying the destructive/batch validation requirement. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Good section headers, but no bundle files exist and the skill is a monolithic ~620 lines with reference-style content inlined (the ~100-line whitelist spec and duplicated review prompts) that would be better split into separate reference files. | 3 / 5 |
