**Average improvement: +35% across 65 skills** (from ~64% average to ~100% average)

<details>
<summary>Changes made across skills</summary>

The optimizations followed consistent patterns across all 65 skills:

- **Expanded frontmatter descriptions** — Added concrete action verbs (creates, configures, validates, generates) describing what each skill actually does, improving trigger specificity and completeness
- **Removed redundant sections** — Eliminated "Role Definition" and "When to Use This Skill" sections that duplicated information already in the frontmatter description
- **Added structured workflows with validation checkpoints** — Enhanced Core Workflow steps with explicit feedback loops (e.g., "if tests fail, fix and re-run") and verification commands
- **Added inline code examples** — Included concrete, executable code snippets demonstrating key patterns for each technology, making skills immediately actionable
- **Tightened constraints** — Made MUST DO/MUST NOT DO lists more specific with brief explanations of why each constraint matters, removing generic best practices Claude would already follow
- **Improved progressive disclosure** — Better organized reference tables with clearer "Load When" guidance

</details>

Honest disclosure — I work at @tesslio where we build tooling around skills like these. Not a pitch - just saw room for improvement and wanted to contribute.

If you want to run evals yourself, just `npm install @tessl/cli` then run `tessl skill review path/to/your/SKILL.md`, and click [here](https://tessl.io/registry/skills/submit) to find out more.

Thanks in advance 🙏
