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 an unusually rigorous, well-validated loop with concrete commands, prompt templates, stop criteria, and crash recovery — workflow clarity is exemplary. Its weaknesses are token efficiency (large verbatim duplication) and the total absence of progressive disclosure: 619 monolithic lines where reference files should carry the whitelist spec and prompt templates.
Suggestions
Extract the edit-whitelist specification (schema, resolution rules, detectors) into references/edit-whitelist.md and the reviewer prompt template into references/reviewer-prompt.md, leaving one-line pointers in SKILL.md — this also removes the Step 2/Step 5 verbatim duplication.
Replace the duplicated Steps 3/6 whitelist-gate prose with a single referenced procedure and fold the 'Empirical motivation' anecdotes into a short rationale line each.
Finish the Step 4.5 Python snippet so it actually compares normalized theorem blocks (it currently ends in comments), and fix the duplicate 'Step 9' section numbering.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The ~50-line reviewer prompt is duplicated verbatim in Steps 2 and 5, the edit-whitelist gate prose is restated in Steps 3 and 6, and long 'Empirical motivation' paragraphs pad the 619-line body — content is operational rather than educational, but it could be materially tightened. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete latexmk/grep/pdfinfo commands, full spawn_agent prompt templates, and exact log/state-file schemas make the guidance mostly executable, but the Step 4.5 Python snippet is a non-executable skeleton ending in comments, and Step 2's placeholders ([VENUE], [list figure files]) require assembly. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps 0–9 are clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints (0 undefined references, the restatement regression test after every recompile, location-aware format-check stop criteria, JSON state recovery), severity-ranked fix priorities, and recompile-verify feedback loops — the only blemish is cosmetic: two sections are both numbered 'Step 9'. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill has no bundle files at all: the ~100-line edit-whitelist guide, the two prompt templates, and the fix-pattern tables are inlined in SKILL.md where they belong in one-level-deep reference files; internal section structure and external skill references are good, which keeps this above the minimal-structure anchor. | 3 / 5 |
