What it does

This skill should be used to refine brainstorm or plan documents before proceeding to the next workflow step. It applies when a brainstorm or plan document exists and the user wants to improve it.

Installed, it changes the agent in these ways.

What this skill changes about the agent is not written down here yet. The listing was collected from its source, and the description is in its own SKILL.md.

Workflow

Runs a procedure end to end.

content

The skill itself

This is the whole product. A skill is instructions the model reads, so there is nothing behind the listing you cannot see first — the front matter loads with every session, and the body below it loads when the skill triggers.

8Improve brainstorm or plan documents through structured review.

10## Step 1: Get the Document
11
12**If a document path is provided:** Read it, then proceed to Step 2.
13
14**If no document is specified:** Ask which document to review, or look for the most recent brainstorm/plan in docs/brainstorms/ or docs/plans/.
15
16## Step 2: Assess
17
18Read through the document and ask:
19
20- What is unclear?
21- What is unnecessary?
22- What decision is being avoided?
23- What assumptions are unstated?
24- Where could scope accidentally expand?
25
26These questions surface issues. Don't fix yet—just note what you find.
27
28## Step 3: Evaluate
29
30Score the document against these criteria:
31
32| Criterion | What to Check |
33|-----------|---------------|
34| **Clarity** | Problem statement is clear, no vague language ("probably," "consider," "try to") |
35| **Completeness** | Required sections present, constraints stated, open questions flagged |
36| **Specificity** | Concrete enough for next step (brainstorm → can plan, plan → can implement) |
37| **YAGNI** | No hypothetical features, simplest approach chosen |
38
39If invoked within a workflow (after /workflows:brainstorm or /workflows:plan), also check:
40- **User intent fidelity** — Document reflects what was discussed, assumptions validated
41
42## Step 4: Identify the Critical Improvement
43
44Among everything found in Steps 2-3, does one issue stand out? If something would significantly improve the document's quality, this is the "must address" item. Highlight it prominently.
45
46## Step 5: Make Changes
47
48Present your findings, then:
49
501. **Auto-fix** minor issues (vague language, formatting) without asking
512. **Ask approval** before substantive changes (restructuring, removing sections, changing meaning)
523. **Update** the document inline—no separate files, no metadata sections
53
54### Simplification Guidance
55
56Simplification is purposeful removal of unnecessary complexity, not shortening for its own sake.
57
58**Simplify when:**
59- Content serves hypothetical future needs, not current ones
60- Sections repeat information already covered elsewhere
61- Detail exceeds what's needed to take the next step
62- Abstractions or structure add overhead without clarity
63
64**Don't simplify:**
65- Constraints or edge cases that affect implementation
66- Rationale that explains why alternatives were rejected
67- Open questions that need resolution
68
69## Step 6: Offer Next Action
70
71After changes are complete, ask:
72
731. **Refine again** - Another review pass
742. **Review complete** - Document is ready
75
76### Iteration Guidance
77
78After 2 refinement passes, recommend completion—diminishing returns are likely. But if the user wants to continue, allow it.
79
80Return control to the caller (workflow or user) after selection.
81
82## What NOT to Do
83
84- Do not rewrite the entire document
85- Do not add new sections or requirements the user didn't discuss
86- Do not over-engineer or add complexity
87- Do not create separate review files or add metadata sections

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈60
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
740
on trigger
The instruction body, read only when the skill fires.
0.40%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 4% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

800 tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Small enough to keep loaded permanently without thinking about it.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been published here. It is in the skill’s own SKILL.md, which its author has not sent to the marketplace yet.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

It writes no files and reaches no network. All it changes is how the model reasons and writes.

What it asks for
Writes filesno
Network accessno

Read from the allowed-tools line of this skill’s own SKILL.md. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

1 file, 3.2 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • SKILL.md3.2 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 1 file you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

Writes to .claude/skills/document-review/ in the current project. Add --global to put it in your home directory instead, for every project.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. A client with a skills folder reads it without being told; everywhere else the same text works, it is just handed to the model rather than found.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.

Reviews

no reviews yet · no installs yet

Nobody has reviewed this skill yet. The rating is the mean of the reviews written here, so there is none until somebody writes the first.

Who can post

Only accounts that have had the skill installed for fourteen days, so a review is written after living with it rather than after reading it. Publishers may reply once.
