- Protocol ResearchSystematic research workflow for documenting protocols, standards, or technologiesVotes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Web ResearchUse this whenever the user asks you to research a topic, find the current state of something, compare options, or gather background from the web — e.g. "what's the latest on X", "find the best approach to Y", "compare these three tools". Drives a scope → gather → gap-check → synthesize loop.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- GuidesA *skill* here is a named capability **A2A callers can dispatch to**. It lives on the agent card, not in your Python code: adding one does not create a new handler — it advertises an existing capability so callers can target it. ::: warning Not the same as a `SKILL.md` skill If you're trying to teach *your own* agent a procedure it loads mid-turn, that's a [`SKILL.md` skill](/guides/skills) — a different subsystem that happens to share the word. This page is only about what other agents can c...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- TutorialsA **skill** teaches the agent how and when to handle a recurring task. You drop in a `SKILL.md` folder; the agent retrieves it by relevance and follows it — no code, no re-explaining each turn. By the end of this tutorial you'll have a skill the agent uses automatically *and* can run on demand as a `/slash` command. > Prerequisite: a running agent — see [Spin up your first agent](/tutorials/first-agent). > For the full format, see the [Skills reference](/reference/skills); for the concepts, t...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Web BrowseOpen a website, fill a form, click buttons, take a screenshot, print a page to PDF, scrape or extract page content, test a web app, log in, or automate any browser interaction. Trigger when the user asks you to browse, visit, navigate, interact with, or automate a web page — or to turn a page or an HTML artifact into a PDF.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Diagramming CodeWhen the user asks for a diagram OF THE CODE — a sequence diagram of a call flow, a flowchart or class diagram of a module's structure, a state diagram of a lifecycle — render it as a mermaid artifact whose nodes and messages link to the exact lines, grounded in code you actually read.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Rendering ArtifactsWhen the user wants to SEE, render, visualize, preview, or "show me" a chart, diagram, mock-up, table, or interactive widget — render it with the show_artifact tool instead of writing files to disk.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Consolidate MemoryReflective maintenance pass over long-term memory — merge duplicates, retire stale or completed items, sharpen what stays. Use when the operator asks to clean up/organize memory, when recall keeps surfacing outdated facts, or periodically as a scheduled task.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Daily BriefCompose the operator's daily brief — schedule, things waiting on them, ongoing work, and heads-ups. LOAD THIS SKILL FIRST (load_skill) and deliver the brief as an HTML artifact via show_artifact — never as chat text. Run only when the operator explicitly asks for their brief (or /daily-brief), or when executing a scheduled brief task. An ordinary question about today's calendar is answered directly, not with a brief.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- DocxProduce or modify Word documents (.docx) as real files — reports, memos, letters, proposals, or any deliverable the operator will open in Word. Use when the requested output is a Word file, or when an existing .docx needs content extracted, edited, or restructured. Not for spreadsheets, decks, or PDFs — those have their own skills.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Drop FolderTurn a fenced work folder into a drop zone — a watch notices when files land, change, or disappear there and runs a follow-up you define (summarize the new PDF, file the invoice, merge the CSV). Use when the operator wants something to happen "whenever a file shows up in <folder>", or wants to pause or remove such a watch.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- PdfRead, extract from, combine, split, watermark, fill, or produce PDF files. Use whenever a .pdf is the input or the deliverable — merging reports, pulling text or tables out, rotating scans, filling forms, or generating a polished PDF from content.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- PptxBuild or edit slide decks (.pptx) as real files — pitch decks, briefings, status readouts — or extract content from existing ones. Use whenever slides or presentations are the input or the deliverable. Not for documents, spreadsheets, or PDFs.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- ScheduleTurn work into a scheduled task that runs unattended — "every morning", "each Friday", "remind me in an hour", "run this weekly" — or adjust an existing schedule. Use whenever the operator wants something recurring, delayed, or re-timed.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Setup CoworkConversational first-run companion for the Cowork archetype — verify the workspace is ready, import existing Claude Code/Cowork state, prove the setup on a real task, learn the operator's writing voice, and wire the first scheduled task. The mechanical setup (archetype, plugins, dependencies, folders) belongs to the setup wizard; this skill picks up where it leaves off.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Writing VoiceLearn the operator's writing voice from samples they provide and save it as a reusable style profile, so drafts written in their name sound like them. Use when the operator wants drafts to match their style, offers writing samples, or asks to set up/update their voice profile.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- XlsxProduce, edit, or clean spreadsheets (.xlsx/.csv/.tsv) as real files — reconciliations, trackers, budgets, data cleanups, format conversions. Use whenever the deliverable is a spreadsheet or an existing one needs work, including messy tabular data that needs restructuring. Not for Word/PDF/deck outputs.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Adr AuthoringUse this when writing, drafting, or updating an Architecture Decision Record (ADR) or a plan document for this repo — e.g. "write an ADR for X", "record this decision", "author the ADR for this design", "draft the plan doc". Covers the house MADR shape, numbering, the index row, the docs-nav regeneration step, and the VitePress traps that fail the docs build.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Code Review/code-review — adversarial PR review via the code-review workflow: four parallel finder angles, dedup, an evidence-checking verify pass, and a findings report. Falls back to a two-axis inline review when the workflow isn't available.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Due Diligence/due-diligence — validate a technology or architecture choice with the due-diligence workflow: codebase map + external research in parallel, antagonist + claim verification, and a cited adopt/build/defer verdict.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Grilling/grill — a relentless interview that sharpens a plan or design before any of it is built.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Standup/standup — an operational status report on everything this agent currently owns: tasks, goals, schedules, background work, and what needs the operator's call.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Writing Skills/writing-skills — the house discipline for authoring SKILL.md skills that behave predictably. Loads the rules; the skill_writer subagent applies them.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Debug LoopGuide the operator through finding and fixing a bug as their navigator — one checkpoint per turn (orient, reproduce, narrow, hypothesize, locate, the operator fixes, verify, the operator commits), asking for their hypothesis before giving yours, and never editing or committing unless they explicitly ask. Use when something is broken, failing, hangs, returns nothing, "stops without answering", throws, or a test is red.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Repo OnboardGet the OPERATOR up to speed in an unfamiliar repository fast — clone or register it, find its manifest(s) and README and put them in front of the operator (the README as a markdown artifact, the manifest in the code pane), draw a code-linked Mermaid architecture overview, prove the toolchain, write a short repo card, then offer a guided tour one stop per turn. Use when the operator points you at a new repo or directory, says "get up to speed", "onboard", "what is this codebase", "how does th...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Recording FrictionWhen and how to record friction with `record_friction` — the moment a tool is missing, awkward, or wrong, and the moment you catch yourself taking a long way round. Read this when you hit a rough edge, when you reach for a shell to do something that should be a tool, or when you are triaging the friction backlog.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- GreetingUse when the user just wants a friendly greeting or to test that the example plugin is wired up. Demonstrates a plugin bundling a skill alongside its tool.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Building PluginsUse this when asked to build, create, write, scaffold, or publish a protoAgent plugin — e.g. "make a plugin that …", "add a plugin for X", "package this as a plugin", "write a plugin that adds a tool/dashboard/workflow", "publish a plugin so others can install it". Covers the plugin contract (manifest + register()), the full contribution surface (tools, subagents, SKILL.md skills, workflows, console views, routes, MCP servers, config/secrets/settings), the conventional repo layout, testing, a...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
- Self Building DemoRun the self-building demo (ADR 0096): live, in front of an audience, build a new plugin for whatever the user just asked for — design → scaffold → implement → test → hot-swap — and then USE it. Trigger when the operator says "demo the self-building loop", "show how you build plugins", "build yourself a tool for this (demo)", or asks to show protoAgent extending itself. Not for: routine plugin work (use the building-plugins skill directly).Votes: 0GitHub stars: 11
