Mark an AI work thread as finished on the thread registry/board — moves it to Done / Archive and stops it from showing as active in-flight work. Use when a thread is genuinely complete and should leave the active board.

Quality

Content

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An exemplarily tight, single-purpose skill: exact commands, a safe match constraint, an explicit undo path, and zero padding. Nothing material is missing for the task it covers.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean 37-line body where every section is operational (file paths, exact commands, reversibility, PATH fallback) and no background concepts are explained; the one philosophical line ('stop starting, start finishing') still conveys trigger intent.

5 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands cover the common cases: listing the registry, matching a thread, finishing it, and adding a closing note ('node scripts/edit-thread.mjs --match "<id-or-title>" --finish').

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A simple, single-purpose skill with an unambiguous sequence (identify → finish → optional note → script rewrites and re-renders); the 'must match exactly one thread' constraint and the explicit reversibility note provide validation and an undo path, and the operation is non-destructive so no cap applies.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Under 50 lines with no need for external reference files; well-organized sections (Outcome, When to use, Workflow, Notes) and the few referenced paths point into its home repo rather than nested bundle docs, so navigation is trivial.

Description

83%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description: concrete, third-person, and explicit about both capability and trigger. The only room for improvement is broader natural trigger synonyms and sharper separation from closely related thread-state skills.

Suggestions

Add one or two natural trigger synonyms users might say, e.g. 'close out', 'wrap up', or 'archive a thread', to widen trigger term coverage.

Sharpen distinctiveness from sibling thread-management skills by emphasizing this is the terminal close-out action (e.g. 'the close-out action when work is done'), not a generic stage move.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (AI thread registry/board) and several concrete actions with effects ('Mark an AI work thread as finished', 'moves it to Done / Archive', 'stops it from showing as active in-flight work'), but coverage is limited to the single finish operation rather than a comprehensive set of capabilities.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both parts: the 'what' (mark finished on the registry, move to Done/Archive, drop from the active board) and a concrete 'when' clause ('Use when a thread is genuinely complete and should leave the active board'), matching the top anchor.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Good natural keywords — 'finished', 'Done / Archive', 'genuinely complete', 'in-flight work' — that users would plausibly say; a few common synonyms like 'close the thread' or 'wrap up' are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche with distinct finish/close triggers, but 'moves it to Done / Archive' has minor overlap risk with sibling thread-state/stage-move skills; fits 'mostly distinct; minor overlap risk with closely related skills' better than the minimal-conflict anchor.
