- New common/misc/tmux-launch-agent skill with detect-agent script and agents-seed.md (moved from engineering/setup-skills) - implement-issue simplified: delegates agent dispatch to tmux-launch-agent instead of inlining it - setup-skills stripped of Section E (agent CLI config) - New in-progress/agent-handoff skill using tmux-launch-agent - PKM skills simplified: conversation-summary and pkm-curation rewritten with leaner process, crit streamlined - knowledge-gardener removed (moved to common/in-progress/) - All READMEs updated to match
Common Skills
Skills that work in all CLI agents.
User-invoked
- conversation-summary — Summarize the current AI conversation into a new Obsidian markdown note and matching transcript file.
- crit — Brainstorm with AI using the CRIT framework to generate and evaluate ideas.
- grill-me — A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design.
- grill-with-docs — A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design, which also creates docs (ADRs and glossary) as we go.
- handoff — Compact the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up.
- improve-codebase-architecture — Scan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.
- knowledge-gardener — Run vault-aware semantic search, synthesis, note creation, linking, and Zettelkasten workflows for this Obsidian vault.
- pkm-curation — Curate an Obsidian vault — classify notes, normalize frontmatter, add wikilinks, extract atomic notes. Use when curating, batch-processing, reviewing, or doing a serendipity pick.
- project-context-pack — Build and refresh a bounded repo context memory file so agents use disciplined search instead of repeated browsing.
- research-vault — Research a topic through a one-question-at-a-time learning conversation, answer directly, share resources when useful, and save a linked Obsidian research packet.
- setup-skills — Configure this repo for the engineering skills, set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout.
- to-issues — Break a plan, spec, or PRD into independently-grabbable issues on the project issue tracker using tracer-bullet vertical slices.
- to-prd — Turn the current conversation into a PRD and publish it to the project issue tracker — no interview, just synthesis of what you've already discussed.
- triage — Move issues and external PRs through a state machine of triage roles — categorise, verify, grill if needed, and write agent-ready briefs.
- writing-great-skills — Reference for writing and editing skills well — the vocabulary and principles that make a skill predictable.
Deprecated / user-invoked:
- forge-router — High-level guidance for choosing the right forge skill.
Model-invoked
- codebase-design — Shared vocabulary for designing deep modules.
