Skills

An agent can produce a tidy commit, release record, or incident report while quietly inventing the decision that matters. These downloadable workflows put hard edges around recurring engineering work: what evidence the agent may use, what it must validate, and where it has to stop and ask instead of guessing.

They can be installed directly for Codex or Claude Code when the agent already has the right repository context. ACK handles the more repeatable route: it selects the skill, collects the requested evidence, runs the provider in an isolated workspace, and checks the returned draft with the matching validator.

The catalog starts with the path from implementation to release. I add another skill when the workflow is explicit enough to share without pretending every project works the same way.
