85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is highly actionable with executable, copy-paste-ready commands and config across a clear 9-step workflow with triage checkpoints and feedback loops. The only weakness is mild verbosity from repeated source framing and a small amount of conceptual explanation.
Suggestions
Remove the repeated 'Per [bd-start]' framing from Steps 1-3 and cite the reference once, since the link already conveys provenance.
Tighten the Overview's severity/confidence explanation to a single line; Bandit's two-dimensional scoring is well-known and the detail adds tokens without adding actionability.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly lean and action-oriented, but the repeated 'Per [bd-start]' framing and the conceptual severity/confidence explanation in the Overview could be tightened, so it sits at 'mostly efficient but could be tighter' rather than the fully lean level 3. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable commands and complete config blocks (bandit CLI flags, pyproject.toml, pre-commit YAML, GitHub Actions) with specific rule IDs, matching the 'fully executable, copy-paste ready' anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear Step 1-9 sequence with an explicit quarterly triage checkpoint and feedback guidance (baseline ratcheting, PR-blocking filter) in the triage/CI steps, satisfying the 'explicit validation steps and feedback loops' anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized sections with one-level-deep references (the [bd-start] link and a References list of docs and sister scanners), no nested bundling, and no bundle files present — clean single-file organization per the simple-skill note. | 3 / 3 |
