SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Schliff provides deterministic scoring for Claude Code instruction files to detect degradation and guide reliable improvement.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-dimension structural scoring (structure, triggers, quality, edges, efficiency, composability, and clarity) with anti-gaming safeguards.
  • Eval-suite integration: supports baseline scoring, runtime validation, and cross-session memory to measure progress over time.
  • Auto-improvement workflows: identifies gaps, proposes atomic changes, and logs iteration histories for auditability.
  • Multi-file skill handling: supports references, scripts, and assets, enabling complex skill trees and handoffs between components.

Quick Start

Run schliff on SKILL.md to obtain a structured score and recommended improvements.

FAQPage Schema
How do I evaluate the structural quality of Claude Code instruction files?

Evaluating Claude Code instruction files involves deterministic scoring across seven dimensions: structure, triggers, quality, edges, efficiency, composability, and clarity. This detects degradation and provides actionable recommendations for reliable improvement.

What is deterministic scoring for prompt files and how does it work?

Deterministic scoring for prompt files provides a canonical score by analyzing structural quality across multiple dimensions. It includes anti-gaming safeguards and optional runtime validation when an eval suite is available, ensuring consistent and reliable assessments.

How do I track prompt degradation over multiple sessions?

To track prompt degradation over multiple sessions, utilize cross-session memory features that log iteration histories and store prior results. This supports cross-session learning by maintaining a memory of previous scores and measuring progress over time.

Can I score SKILL.md files that reference external scripts and assets?

Yes, you can score SKILL.md files that reference external scripts and assets. The evaluation supports multi-file skill handling, enabling complex skill trees and handoffs between components like scripts and references during the scoring process.

How do I generate actionable improvements for Claude Code prompts?

Generating actionable improvements for Claude Code prompts involves identifying structural gaps through deterministic scoring and proposing atomic changes. The evaluation logs iteration histories for auditability, guiding reliable and measurable prompt enhancement.

Do I need an eval suite to perform structural scoring on instruction files?

You do not need an eval suite to perform structural scoring on instruction files. The seven-dimensional structural scoring works independently, while the eval suite is an optional integration for baseline scoring, runtime validation, and cross-session progress measurement.
