Content
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured instructional skill: clear six-step workflow with a destructive-operation feedback loop, concrete templates, and a clean one-level reference. The only weakness is conciseness — the worked example and intro restate material already covered.
Suggestions
Trim or fold the 'Worked example' section: it re-narrates Steps 1-5 already detailed above — condense to a brief '142 -> 139 steps, zero ambiguous duplicates' outcome summary with a pointer, or drop it.
Shorten the 'Overview' motivational paragraph ('After 6 months of a BDD project, step definitions proliferate...') to one or two lines; the 'When to use' section already conveys the same motivation more crisply.
Consider collapsing the large in-body README template in Step 4 (the multi-line Auth/Navigation/Cart sample) into a shorter skeleton with a pointer to the reference, to reduce the body's token footprint.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient and example-driven, but the motivational intro ('After 6 months of a BDD project, step definitions proliferate...') and the full 'Worked example' section re-walk the same Steps 1-5 already detailed above, adding length that could be tightened; not 1 because the content is actionable rather than explaining basics Claude knows, and not 3 due to the redundant worked example and introductory padding. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Gives concrete, specific guidance — duplicate detection rules ('Same wording, different phrasing'), a normalization procedure (lowercase, drop articles, collapse parameters), copy-paste-ready templates for the duplicate-group table, directory tree, and README index; per the scoring notes, an instruction-only skill is not penalized for offloading executable code to the reference, so this clears the 3 anchor over the incomplete-guidance 2. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps 1-6 are clearly sequenced and the destructive consolidation step has an explicit feedback loop: 'run the full BDD suite and assert zero undefined or ambiguous steps... If a scenario reports an undefined step... fix that reference and re-run', matching the score-3 anchor with validation and error recovery; not 2 because checkpoints are explicit rather than implicit. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is an overview that signals a single one-level-deep reference (references/step-extraction-and-overlap.md, verified to exist) for the deep extraction commands, overlap script, and pre-merge gate, matching the score-3 anchor; not 2 because the split is clean and well-signaled rather than inline-heavy or nested. | 3 / 3 |
