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, highly actionable audit skill: concrete verdict rules, a sequenced workflow with validation guards, and clean one-level-deep references that all resolve to real files. The only drag is conciseness, where repeated grounding-quotation framing adds tokens that could be trimmed without losing clarity.
Suggestions
Tighten the ISTQB grounding prose in Steps 2 and 3 — point once to references/grounding.md and drop the repeated inline framing, since the verbatim quotations already live there.
Consider collapsing the axis-definition paragraph after the three-axes table, which restates the ISTQB definitions already linked, to reclaim tokens.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | It assumes Claude's competence (no explaining what tests or coverage are) and is mostly efficient, but the repeated ISTQB quotation framing and discursive grounding pointers add tokens that could be tightened, matching the score-2 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' anchor rather than a fully lean 3. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | It gives fully concrete, executable guidance — a literal-clustering heuristic table, explicit PASS/SHALLOW/n/a verdict rules per axis, a negative_assertion_ratio formula, and a copy-ready output-format template — satisfying the score-3 anchor for specific, actionable instruction. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear five-step sequence with explicit checkpoints — 'Score all three axes before deciding anything', n/a-as-validation-guard rules, and the evidence-required rule — provides the feedback loops and guards the score-3 anchor calls for. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | SKILL.md is an overview with verbatim quotations and the full worked example split into one-level-deep, clearly linked references (grounding.md, worked-example.md), both of which exist as real bundle files — matching the score-3 anchor. | 3 / 3 |
