Editorial Scoring

Use this skill whenever you need to answer "How important is this to a reader?"

This skill is intentionally rubric-focused, not task-focused. It does not generate files on its own. Instead, it provides the shared editorial calibration that other skills should reuse:

• generate-features — assigns the first-pass scores
• review-release-notes — audits and recalibrates those scores
• release-notes — uses the resulting cut to decide what gets written up
• future blog/docs workflows — can reuse the same rubric with different thresholds

This is the canonical home for the shared scoring scale and 80/20 audience filter. Other release-notes docs should point back here instead of restating the rubric in full.

Core question

Score from the perspective of a developer upgrading to the new release — not from the perspective of the engineer who implemented the feature.
