configuration-management

I took a look at your configuration-management skill and wanted to share some thoughts.

TL;DR

You're at 51/100, which puts you in F territory - this needs some real work before it's ready. The grading is based on Anthropic's 5-pillar skill framework (Progressive Disclosure, Ease of Use, Spec Compliance, Writing Style, and Utility).

Strongest: Your spec compliance is solid (11/15) - the YAML frontmatter is clean and you've got the structure right.

Weakest: Ease of Use (11/25) and Progressive Disclosure (14/30) are dragging you down hard. The skill reads like a tech spec sheet rather than something Claude would actually use.

What's Working Well

• Valid frontmatter structure — Your YAML is correctly formatted with required fields
• Reference assets exist — You've got ansible-patterns.yaml, CONFIG_GUIDE.md, and ANSIBLE_PATTERNS.md in place
• Covers real tools — Ansible, Chef, Puppet, SaltStack are all legitimate CM tools worth documenting

The Big One: No Clear Workflow

Here's the core problem: Your SKILL.md lists topics as nouns ("Ansible playbooks and roles", "Inventory management") but never explains what Claude should actually do with them. This tanks both Ease of Use and Progressive Disclosure.

Fix: Restructure SKILL.md with imperative, action-oriented guidance:

## MANDATORY (Use first)
1. Create Ansible playbook using role-based structure
2. Configure inventory for target hosts (static or dynamic)
3. Validate playbook syntax with --check flag

## OPTIONAL (As needed)
- Use Chef for Ruby-heavy teams needing agent-based management
- Use Puppet for enterprise multi-node deployments
- Use SaltStack for eve...
