Score breakdown

Trigger
5.0
Several quoted trigger phrasings but no When-Not and thin keyword variety
Structure
7.3
39 lines, minimal by design; no progressive disclosure or references to organize
Workflow
7.2
Four clear reviewer steps with ask-user fallback; no verification beyond findings output
Content
9.0
Very concise imperative instructions, easy to follow
Engineering
10.0
Valid frontmatter with argument-hint; no path references to break
Security
8.5
Fetches official vercel-labs GitHub URL but executes fetched text as rules without pinning
Thin reviewer wrapper that fetches Vercel writing rules at review time; clean and concise but trigger coverage is narrow and unpinned remote-content-as-instructions carries mild injection exposure.
