skills: Agent skills for real engineering, designed to be small, easy to adapt, and composable.

What problem it solves

Coding agents can misunderstand requirements, use overly verbose terminology, work without sufficient feedback loops, and accelerate codebase complexity. These skills address those failure modes with repeatable practices that preserve developer control over the engineering process.

Key features

  • Requirements alignment — Grilling workflows ask detailed questions about a proposed change so the agent and developer share a clear understanding before implementation begins.

    Source: README, skills

  • Shared project language — The documentation workflows build a glossary and record architectural decisions, helping agents use consistent terminology and navigate the codebase more clearly.

    Source: README, GLOSSARY.md

  • Feedback-driven development — Skills for test-driven development and bug diagnosis establish explicit loops for writing tests, reproducing failures, minimising issues, instrumenting code, and adding regression tests.

    Source: README

  • Codebase design support — Architecture and design skills survey a codebase for deepening opportunities and help turn plans or specifications into modular, testable work.

    Source: README

  • Model and agent compatibility — The skills can be installed for several coding agents or copied into a project as editable files, and are designed to work with any model.

Who it may suit

Inference: This project may suit developers who use coding agents for application development and want structured, adaptable engineering workflows.

Topics to discuss

  • Which agent skills would be most useful in your current development workflow?

  • How do you balance agent automation with developer control over the engineering process?

  • Which engineering fundamentals should every agent workflow enforce?
