Content
88%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 content is a tightly structured, claim-driven experiment-planning skill with explicit phases, decision gates, and copy-ready output templates, assuming Claude's expertise rather than over-explaining. It is action-oriented and well-sequenced with validation checkpoints throughout.
Suggestions
Tighten the Key Rules section by removing items that merely restate guidance already embedded in Phase 2–4 of the Workflow (e.g. 'Prefer strong baselines' duplicates the Phase 2 baseline guidance).
Consider moving the EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md and EXPERIMENT_TRACKER.md markdown templates into a references/ file so SKILL.md reads as a leaner overview with clearly signaled one-level-deep references.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is well-structured and assumes Claude's competence (no basic explanations of what experiments or ablations are), though some Key Rules restate guidance already given in the Workflow phases, leaving minor trim opportunities. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable output templates (EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md and EXPERIMENT_TRACKER.md with complete markdown structures), explicit constants, per-block specification fields, and a ready-to-present summary format covering the common cases. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear six-phase sequence (Phase 0–5) with milestone structure, explicit stop/go decision gates, success/failure interpretation criteria, must-run vs nice-to-have separation, and a Final Checklist provides explicit validation checkpoints and feedback loops. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle directories (references/, scripts/, assets/) exist, so all content is inline; the shared protocol references are one-level-deep and clearly signaled, and sections are well-organized, though the full output templates could alternatively live in separate reference files. | 4 / 5 |
