electrified-cortex-skills

skills-plugin

Distributes the electrified-cortex/skills library as a Claude Code plugin. The skills/ tree is pre-built — consumers get all skills available in-context with no build step required.

For full contract, build inputs, and invariants, see spec.md.

Set me up in Claude Code

If you've been told "set me up in Claude Code" with this repo URL, run these two commands. No further input required:

claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/electrified-cortex/skills-plugin
claude plugin install electrified-cortex-skills@electrified-cortex

Set me up in VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Skills use the Agent Skills open standard, natively compatible with GitHub Copilot Chat in VS Code.

Project install — copy any skill directory into .github/skills/:

cp -r .claude-plugins/ec-skills/skills/<skill-name> .github/skills/

User-level install — cross-project personal access:

# Linux / macOS
cp -r .claude-plugins/ec-skills/skills/<skill-name> ~/.copilot/skills/

# Windows (PowerShell)
Copy-Item -Recurse .claude-plugins\ec-skills\skills\<skill-name> $HOME\.copilot\skills\

After copying, type /skills in Copilot Chat to confirm the skill appears.

Install (submodule)

git submodule add https://github.com/electrified-cortex/skills-plugin .claude-plugins/ec-skills
git submodule update --init --recursive

Then reference in your Claude Code project config.

Agent reference pattern

Skills are available at:

<submodule>/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md

Example: .claude-plugins/ec-skills/skills/compression/SKILL.md

Consumer notes

• No build step needed. The skills/ tree is pre-built and ready to reference.
• To update: git submodule update --remote .claude-plugins/ec-skills
• Rollback: revert the submodule pointer to the previous commit.

Structure

skills-plugin/
  publish/        # meta-skill: version-bump, changelog, tag, push
  build/          # build tooling (Stage 1 crawler)
  skills/         # distributed output tree (build output — never edit by hand)
  plugin.json     # version: mono SemVer
  CHANGELOG.md
  README.md
  spec.md         # full contract: inputs, outputs, invariants

Versioning

plugin.json carries a single version field — the plugin is the unit of release. Pin by git tag (v<version>) or submodule commit. No per-skill versioning.
