77%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 exceptionally concrete, well-sequenced operational procedure with real commands, hard numeric gates, and genuine error-recovery loops. Its weaknesses are verbosity from repeated maxims and narrative framing, and a monolithic ~380-line structure that inlines reference-grade detail and links to bundle paths that don't exist alongside SKILL.md.
Suggestions
Move reference-grade detail into bundled files and link them one level deep: the figure-area bands, the taste-calibration protocol, and the spawn_agent message templates each belong in a references/ file rather than inline in SKILL.md.
State each gate-ordering rule once: 'Do not let a reviewer see an unmeasured poster', 'same-family stays provisional', and the fix vocabulary are each repeated 2-3 times across phases and Key rules — keep the single authoritative statement in Key rules and delete the duplicates.
Trim the 'Why this skill exists' predecessor-failure narrative to a one-line motivation, and condense the reviewer-routing preamble to the operational minimum needed before Phase 0.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The bulk is dense skill-specific procedure rather than concepts Claude already knows, but there is measurable padding: the "Why this skill exists" failure narrative, repeated maxims ("Do not let a reviewer see an unmeasured poster" in Phases 1 and 4; "same-family stays provisional" three times; "fix vocabulary" restated in Phase 5 and Key rules), and the reviewer-routing preamble. Not 2 — no explanation of known concepts; not 4 — repetition and narrative could be trimmed. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable throughout: copy-paste commands ("python3 \"$SKILL_SCRIPTS/run_gates.py\" poster_html/poster.html --tokens <pack.json> --manifest poster_html/FIGURE_MANIFEST.json"), exact numeric gate targets ("column-bottom spread < 5 px (aim < 3), footer gap ∈ [30, 50] px"), complete spawn_agent message templates, a SKILL_HOME resolution script, and a concrete POSTER_STATE.json / output-contract schema. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Phases 0-7 are clearly sequenced with explicit 🚦 checkpoints ("Wait"), hard validation gates ("Do not proceed while any hard gate fails"), feedback loops with round limits ("fix → re-run Phase 4 gates → re-score", "≤ 3 issues per round, ≤ 3 rounds"), escalation paths, and resume-from-state handling. Matches the anchor-5 validate/fix/retry pattern. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle directories (references/, scripts/, assets/) ship with the skill, yet the body links to paths outside it ("../shared-references/reviewer-backends.md", "templates/COMPONENTS.md", "templates/README.md") that cannot be verified in this bundle, and inlines detail its own architecture assigns to separate files (Figure-area bands, the taste-calibration protocol, spawn_agent example blocks). Structure and link signaling are good — above the minimal-structure anchor — but content that should be separate is inline, so below anchor 4. | 3 / 5 |
