agent-skills
Battle-tested skills for disciplined AI-assisted development.
Because your AI agent should have good habits, not just good vibes.
The Problem
AI coding agents are powerful but undisciplined. They forget what they were doing after context compaction. They write "updated stuff" commit messages. They start five things at once and finish none. They skip code review because "it's just a small change."
These skills fix that.
Skills
| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
tracking-tasks | Never lose work to compaction — enforces task tracking across context boundaries |
exploring-in-parallel | Stop searching sequentially — launch multiple subagents simultaneously |
preserving-context | Capture working state before compaction so you can resume seamlessly |
committing-code | Conventional commits with gitmoji — no more "updated stuff" |
managing-agents-md | Create and maintain AGENTS.md so any AI agent can navigate your codebase |
addressing-pr-feedback | Fetch, organize, and address GitHub PR review comments systematically |
reviewing-code | Catch N+1 queries, security issues, and missing tests before they ship |
writing-skills | Meta-skill — how to write skills that actually trigger and work |
organizing-files | Organize macOS files across Desktop, Documents, Downloads, and iCloud Drive |

Other Tools
These skills follow the Agent Skills open standard. Any compatible tool can use them — just copy the skill folders to your tool's skills directory.
How Skills Work
Each skill is a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter. The AI reads the description field and decides when to activate it automatically — no hooks, no configuration, no ceremony.

# Tracking Tasks
## Overview
Every action must be tracked...
Drop it in the skills directory. It just works.
For the full spec, see Extend Claude with skills.
Skill-Check Hook
The plugin includes a UserPromptSubmit hook that fires on every user message, reminding the agent to check skills before acting. This is a mechanical safety net — skills exist but agents rationalize past them. The hook makes skipping harder.
Plugin users get this automatically. For manual installs, add to ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
"hooks": {
"UserPromptSubmit": [
{
"hooks": [
{
"type": "command",
"command": "echo 'SKILL CHECK: Before acting, scan the skills list. Invoke tracking-tasks + any matching domain skills BEFORE exploring, reading, or writing anything.'",
"timeout": 5
}
]
}
]
}
}
