# Skill Quality Reviewer

## Overview

A meta-skill for evaluating the quality of Claude Skills. Perform comprehensive analysis across four key dimensions, description quality (25%), content organization (30%), writing style (20%), and structural integrity (25%), to generate weighted scores, letter grades, and actionable improvement plans.

Use this skill to validate skills before sharing, identify improvement opportunities, or ensure compliance with skill development best practices.

## When to Use This Skill

**Invoke this skill when:**
- Analyzing a skill's quality before distribution
- Reviewing skill documentation for best practices
- Evaluating adherence to skill development standards
- Generating improvement recommendations for existing skills
- Validating skill structure and completeness

**Trigger phrases:**
- "Analyze skill quality for ./my-skill"
- "Evaluate this skill: ~/.claude/skills/api-helper"
- "Review skill quality of git-workflow"
- "Check my skill for best practices"
- "Generate quality report for this skill"

## Review Modes

Use one of three review modes depending on the task:

1. **score-only**
   - fast first-pass grading for one skill.
2. **remediation-backlog**
   - convert findings into P0 / P1 / P2 fix queues with concrete evidence.
3. **batch-portfolio**
   - review multiple skills together, cluster repeated issues, and produce a prioritized shortlist.

Prefer `remediation-backlog` when the user asks what to fix next.
Prefer `batch-portfolio` when auditing many skills at once.

## Analysis Workflow

### Step 1: Load the Skill

Accept skill path as input. Verify the path exists and contains `SKILL.md`. Read the complete skill directory structure.

```bash
# Example invocation
ls -la ~/.claude/skills/target-skill/
```

**Validate:**
- SKILL.md exists
- Directory is readable
- Path points to a valid skill

### Step 2: Parse YAML Frontmatter

Extract and validate the YAML frontmatter from SKILL.md.
