63%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 concise and well-organized with a useful worked example, but it has two real defects: the Action Format section is truncated — it promises 'the exact format' and then shows nothing — and the bundled references/search_strategy_guide.md is never linked from the body, leaving its content undiscoverable and partly duplicated. Fixing the missing format template and adding an explicit reference pointer would raise actionability and progressive disclosure substantially.
Suggestions
Complete the Action Format section: after 'must be a single action in the exact format:', include the literal template (e.g., search[<keywords>]) so the required output is unambiguous.
Link the bundled guide from the body (e.g., 'Attribute priorities, common pitfalls, and platform assumptions: See [references/search_strategy_guide.md](references/search_strategy_guide.md)') and trim the 'Key Principles' bullets that duplicate its hierarchy.
Remove the persona framing ('You are an expert at...') and fold its content into the Purpose statement to tighten the body further.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The ~25-line body is generally lean with clear sections, but includes minor padding: the 'You are an expert at...' persona framing and 'Key Principles' bullets that duplicate the attribute-priority hierarchy already detailed in references/search_strategy_guide.md. This matches anchor 4 (efficient, minor instances that could be trimmed) rather than anchor 5's every-token-earns-its-place. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | There is a concrete worked example ('Effective Search: search[size 5 patent-beige high heel]') and specific principles, but the Action Format section ends 'Your final output must be a single action in the exact format:' with no format actually shown — the single most important executable detail is missing. This matches anchor 3 (some concrete guidance but incomplete, missing key details); it is above anchor 2 because the example and principles are concrete, but below anchor 4 because the promised exact output template is absent. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | As a simple single-purpose skill, the Core Workflow gives a clear Input → Process → Output sequence, which under the simple-skill note could merit a 5; however the output action's exact format is undefined, leaving the single action not fully unambiguous. Anchor 4 (clear sequence, minor gaps) is the best fit. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body itself is well-sectioned, but the bundle contains references/search_strategy_guide.md (attribute priority hierarchy, pitfalls table, workflow integration) that is never referenced or linked anywhere in the body — a buried reference — and its attribute-priority content is partly duplicated inline in 'Key Principles'. Scoring against the actual bundle structure, this matches anchor 3 (references present but not clearly signaled; content that should be separate is inline) rather than anchor 4, whose references are mostly clearly signaled. | 3 / 5 |
