Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient bullet-list guidance that assumes Claude's competence, with only minor instances that could be trimmed (e.g., the 'When NOT to Use' and 'Additional Resources' lists border on padding).

Actionability

Concrete actionable rules appear (e.g., 'Using datetime.now() instead of workflow.now()', '2MB per argument', 'Always set timeouts'), but the body provides no executable code and the worked patterns in details.md are pseudocode, leaving key implementation details incomplete.

Workflow Clarity

Patterns carry a rough sequence (saga: register compensation → execute → run compensations LIFO), but this is reference material rather than a procedural workflow and lacks any validation or verification checkpoints.

Progressive Disclosure

Clear sectioned overview with a well-signaled one-level-deep pointer to references/details.md ('Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient'); minor gaps because a fair amount of best-practice content is inlined rather than delegated.

Specificity

Lists several concrete capabilities — 'workflow vs activity separation, saga patterns, state management, and determinism constraints' — but relies on a single action verb ('Design') with topic enumeration rather than multiple distinct actions, leaving minor coverage gaps.

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ('Design durable workflows with Temporal... Covers...') and when ('Use when building long-running processes, distributed transactions, or microservice orchestration') with concrete trigger phrases.

Trigger Term Quality

The 'Use when building long-running processes, distributed transactions, or microservice orchestration' clause provides good natural keywords a user would say, though a few common synonyms (e.g., 'saga', 'event-driven') are missing.

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Temporal-specific workflow orchestration niche with distinct triggers ('durable workflows', 'saga patterns', 'microservice orchestration') gives minimal conflict risk with other skills.
