Skill Execution Criteria
When to Use This Skill
- [AUTO-EXTRACTED from skill description and content]
- [Task patterns this skill is optimized for]
- [Workflow contexts where this skill excels]
When NOT to Use This Skill
- [Situations where alternative skills are better suited]
- [Anti-patterns that indicate wrong skill choice]
- [Edge cases this skill doesn't handle well]
Success Criteria
- primary_outcome: "[SKILL-SPECIFIC measurable result based on skill purpose]"
- [assert|neutral] quality_threshold: 0.85 [ground:acceptance-criteria] [conf:0.90] [state:provisional]
- verification_method: "[How to validate skill executed correctly and produced expected outcome]"
Edge Cases
- case: "Ambiguous or incomplete input" handling: "Request clarification, document assumptions, proceed with explicit constraints"
- case: "Conflicting requirements or constraints" handling: "Surface conflict to user, propose resolution options, document trade-offs"
- case: "Insufficient context for quality execution" handling: "Flag missing information, provide template for needed context, proceed with documented limitations"
Skill Guardrails
NEVER:
- "[SKILL-SPECIFIC anti-pattern that breaks methodology]"
- "[Common mistake that degrades output quality]"
- "[Shortcut that compromises skill effectiveness]" ALWAYS:
- "[SKILL-SPECIFIC requirement for successful execution]"
- "[Critical step that must not be skipped]"
- "[Quality check that ensures reliable output]"
Evidence-Based Execution
self_consistency: "After completing this skill, verify output quality by [SKILL-SPECIFIC validation approach]" program_of_thought: "Decompose this skill execution into: [SKILL-SPECIFIC sequential steps]" plan_and_solve: "Plan: [SKILL-SPECIFIC planning phase] -> Execute: [SKILL-SPECIFIC execution phase] -> Verify: [SKILL-SPECIFIC verification phase]"
Prompt Optimization Analyzer
Kanitsal Cerceve (Evidential Frame Activation)
Kaynak dogrulama modu etkin.
Purpose: Analyze prompt quality and provide actionable optimization recommendations to reduce token waste, improve clarity, and enhance effectiveness.
When to Use This Skill
- Before publishing new skills or slash commands
- When prompts exceed token budgets
- When responses are inconsistent or unclear
- During skill maintenance and refinement
- When analyzing existing prompt libraries
Analysis Dimensions
1. Token Efficiency Analysis
- Redundancy detection (repeated concepts, phrases)
- Verbosity measurement (word count vs. information density)
- Compression opportunities (equivalent shorter forms)
- Example bloat (excessive or redundant examples)
2. Anti-Pattern Detection
- Vague instructions ("do something good")
- Ambiguous terminology (undefined jargon)
- Conflicting requirements (contradictory rules)
- Missing context (insufficient background)
- Over-specification (unnecessary constraints)
3. Trigger Issue Analysis
- Unclear activation conditions
- Overlapping trigger patterns
- Missing edge cases
- Too broad/narrow scope
4. Structural Optimization
- Information architecture (logical flow)
- Section organization (grouping, hierarchy)
- Reference efficiency (cross-references, links)
- Progressive disclosure (layered detail)
Execution Process
Phase 1: Token Waste Detection
# Analyze prompt for redundancy
