diagnostics

I've been digging through the skill ecosystem and found your diagnostics tool—curious how you're approaching the observability layer here, especially given some of the architectural constraints in the broader system.

The TL;DR

You're at 65/100, solidly in D territory. This is based on Anthropic's skill best practices. Your strongest pillar is Spec Compliance (12/15)—the frontmatter is clean and valid. Your biggest drag is Utility (11/20)—the framework is solid conceptually, but it lacks the concrete tools, commands, and templates agents actually need to execute.

What's Working Well

• Clean metadata structure — Valid YAML frontmatter with proper naming conventions (diagnostics in hyphen-case). This is foundation stuff done right.
• Real framework logic — The five-step approach (Signal Triangulation → Hypothesis Formation → Validation) maps to actual SEO diagnostic workflows. You're not abstract for abstract's sake.
• Spec-compliant triggers — You've got the "When to Use" section structured correctly, even if the keywords could sharpen up.

The Big One: Missing Reference Files & Templates

Here's what's holding you back the most: You mention templates but don't provide them. The skill says "Diagnostics worksheet (symptom, evidence, hypothesis, owner, next action)" and "Crawl + render checklist per environment," but agents can't actually grab these templates. They're floating in description-land instead of being actionable references.

Why it matters: Without concrete templates, an agent has to improvise the worksheet format. That burns tokens and reduces consistency. Reference fil...
