DimensionScore

conciseness

Content is lean and efficient, using tables and code blocks without unnecessary explanation. Assumes Claude understands plugin concepts, versioning, and directory structures without over-explaining.

3/3

actionability

Provides fully executable bash commands, complete JSON examples, and specific file paths. The create_plugin.py and bump_version.py commands are copy-paste ready with all required flags documented.

3/3

workflow_clarity

Development workflow has clear numbered steps, but lacks validation checkpoints. No verification step after creating structure, no validation after updating manifests, and the testing workflow doesn't include a 'verify installation succeeded' step.

2/3

progressive_disclosure

Excellent structure with quick start at top, detailed workflows in middle, and clear references table at bottom pointing to one-level-deep documentation files. Navigation is well-signaled with tables for components, references, and scripts.

3/3

Suggestions

Add validation checkpoint after step 3 (Register in Marketplace): e.g., 'Validate JSON: python -m json.tool marketplace.json'

Include verification step in local testing workflow: 'Verify installation: /plugin list should show plugin-name@marketplace-name'

Overall Assessment

This is a well-structured, actionable skill that efficiently covers plugin creation and management. The content is appropriately concise with executable examples and good progressive disclosure through reference tables. The main weakness is the lack of explicit validation steps in workflows, particularly for manifest updates and plugin installation verification.

specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'Create and manage Claude Code plugins', 'adding plugin components (commands, agents, hooks)', 'bumping plugin versions', 'working with plugin.json/marketplace.json manifests'.

3/3

completeness

Clearly answers both what ('Create and manage Claude Code plugins with proper structure, manifests, and marketplace integration') and when ('Use when creating plugins for a marketplace, adding plugin components...').

3/3

trigger_term_quality

Includes natural keywords users would say: 'plugins', 'marketplace', 'commands', 'agents', 'hooks', 'plugin versions', 'plugin.json', 'marketplace.json', 'manifests'. Good coverage of domain-specific terms.

3/3

distinctiveness_conflict_risk

Very specific niche targeting Claude Code plugins with distinct triggers like 'plugin.json', 'marketplace.json', 'plugin components'. Unlikely to conflict with general coding or documentation skills.

3/3

Overall Assessment

This is a well-crafted skill description that excels across all dimensions. It provides specific actions, includes natural trigger terms users would actually use, explicitly states both what the skill does and when to use it, and occupies a clear niche that won't conflict with other skills.
