Developer Feedback

I took a look at your automating-calendar skill and wanted to share some thoughts.

The TL;DR

You're at 96/100, which puts you solidly in A territory (production-ready). This is based on Anthropic's skills best practices. Your strongest area is Spec Compliance (14/15) — the structure is tight and follows conventions perfectly. The weakest is Writing Style (7/10), mainly because of tense inconsistencies in your workflow section.

What's Working Well

  • Spec Compliance is chef's kiss — Your YAML frontmatter is clean, naming conventions are correct, and your description hits all the right trigger terms (JXA calendar scripting, EventKit automation, PyXA calendar automation)
  • Solid Progressive Disclosure Architecture — You've got 10 focused reference files that layer nicely from basics through advanced patterns. The PyXA API reference (846 lines) has a TOC, and the shorter references are lean enough they don't need one
  • Clear error handling patterns — Your validation checklist actually tells people what to check (Calendar.calendars.length > 0), and you provide specific error patterns developers will encounter
  • The legacy vs. recommended distinction — You're transparent about moving from JXA to PyXA, which helps developers make the right choice

The Big One: Workflow Tense Issue

Your workflow section uses past tense instead of imperative. This might seem small, but it adds unnecessary tokens and makes the workflow read like a checklist of things you've already done rather than steps to follow.

Current (6 items with past tense):
