Quality
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 an excellent skill description that hits all the marks. It opens with an explicit 'Use when' clause, lists concrete Discord-specific workflows, and provides natural trigger phrases that users would actually say. The description is well-structured, concise, and clearly distinguishable from other skills.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: fetching channel history, summarizing threads, identifying action items, drafting announcements, routing support issues, and preparing incident/community updates. These are clearly defined workflows, not vague abstractions. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (read, post, search, summarize, organize Discord activity with specific workflows listed) and 'when' (opens with 'Use when...' and provides explicit trigger phrases). The 'Use when' clause is the very first element of the description. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would actually say: 'check Discord', 'summarize this channel', 'post this update to Discord', 'find what was said about X', 'turn this Discord thread into a handoff'. Also includes natural keywords like 'read from', 'post to', 'search', 'summarize', 'organize activity in Discord'. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Clearly scoped to Discord as a platform with Discord-specific workflows (channel history, threads, Discord threads). The trigger terms all reference Discord explicitly, making it very unlikely to conflict with other communication or messaging skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid, well-structured skill with strong workflow clarity and actionability. The explicit validation step, error handling section, and concrete MCP tool example are particular strengths. The main weaknesses are mild verbosity from overlapping sections (operating modes vs. output shapes) and the lack of progressive disclosure for a skill of this length.
Suggestions
Merge 'Operating Modes' and 'Preferred Output Shapes' into a single section to eliminate redundancy — each mode could directly include its template.
Consider extracting the output templates into a separate TEMPLATES.md file and referencing it from the main skill to improve progressive disclosure.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably efficient but includes some sections that could be tightened. The 'Operating Modes' section lists return shapes that overlap with the 'Preferred Output Shapes' templates, creating mild redundancy. Some phrasing like 'in a way that is operationally useful, concise, and safe' is filler Claude doesn't need. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides a concrete MCP tool invocation example with specific parameters, clear output templates in markdown, explicit error handling steps, and a completion checklist. The guidance is specific enough to be directly executable. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The workflow is clearly sequenced with numbered steps, includes an explicit validation checkpoint at step 4 before proceeding, has a dedicated error-handling section with specific failure modes and recovery actions, and ends with a completion checklist. The feedback loop (validate → handle error → retry) is well-defined. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is well-structured with clear sections and headers, but everything is inline in a single file. The output templates and operating modes could be referenced from separate files to keep the main skill leaner. For a skill of this length (~120 lines of content), some splitting would improve navigability. | 2 / 3 |
