Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a well-crafted skill description that follows best practices. It uses third person voice, provides specific capabilities, includes an explicit 'Use when...' clause with multiple natural trigger scenarios, and carves out a distinct niche in project planning and task decomposition.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists specific concrete actions: 'Generate dependency-ordered task breakdown', 'breaking features into implementable tasks', 'planning sprints', 'creating work items with parallel markers'. Multiple distinct capabilities are clearly articulated. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both what ('Generate dependency-ordered task breakdown from plan and specification') and when ('Use when breaking features into implementable tasks, planning sprints, or creating work items with parallel markers'). Has explicit 'Use when...' clause with multiple trigger scenarios. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes natural keywords users would say: 'task breakdown', 'features', 'tasks', 'planning sprints', 'work items', 'parallel markers'. These are terms developers and project managers naturally use when discussing project planning. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Clear niche focused on dependency-ordered task generation from plans/specs. The specific combination of 'dependency-ordered', 'task breakdown', 'parallel markers', and 'sprint planning' creates a distinct profile unlikely to conflict with general coding or documentation skills. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 12 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured, highly actionable skill for generating dependency-ordered task breakdowns. It excels in workflow clarity with explicit validation gates and error recovery paths, and provides concrete executable commands throughout. Minor verbosity from dual OS command listings and some redundant formatting examples slightly impact token efficiency.
Suggestions
Consider consolidating Windows/bash command pairs into a single notation (e.g., a note at the top about OS-specific script extensions) to reduce repetition
The task format examples section could be trimmed by removing some redundant 'Wrong' examples that illustrate the same point
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably efficient but includes some redundancy (e.g., repeating Windows commands for every bash command, verbose examples section). Some sections could be tightened without losing clarity. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable bash/PowerShell commands, concrete task format examples with correct/wrong patterns, and specific file paths. The guidance is copy-paste ready with clear command syntax. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Excellent multi-step workflow with explicit validation checkpoints (Prerequisites Check, Plan Readiness Validation, Dependency Graph Validation), clear sequencing through numbered phases, and error handling with feedback loops (circular dependency detection, semantic diff on re-run). | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-structured overview with clear references to external files (constitution-loading.md, conversation-guide.md, formatting-guide.md, tasks-template.md, model-recommendations.md). References are one level deep and clearly signaled with relative paths. | 3 / 3 |
