Skill UI

This skill addresses the common problem of documentation decay in long-lived software projects. It establishes a canonical governance layer by assigning four non-overlapping roles—Constitution, Map, Status, and History—to existing documentation. By linking these roles to the active agent harness, it prevents documentation drift, ensuring that all project information remains accurate, authoritative, and contextually linked to the current codebase, making it ideal for the maintenance phase.

Generate validated Seed specifications from interview results using MCP tools, user interaction, and code inspection capabilities. Supports both interview-based and interview-less workflows with audit trail maintenance and QA score tracking.

Restructure oversized single-file SKILL.md or scattered project rules into a well-organized Skill directory with progressive rigor, routing, validation, and drift-resistant maintenance for AI agent harnesses.

Apply Michael Feathers-inspired rules to safely modify hard-to-test legacy code using characterization tests, seams, sprout methods, or wrap methods. Ideal for risky changes, missing tests, dependency breaking, and incremental risk reduction in software maintenance.

This skill executes protected AAS maintainer sweeps, PR merge batches, and canonical synchronization for repository maintenance. It handles main alignment, CLI/MCP/Workbench changes, and scripted releases. Designed for maintainer privileges, it ensures repository integrity through validation checks, security scans, and automated release workflows without direct main pushes.

Ask Matt is a workflow router designed to help users select the appropriate skill or flow from the mattpocock/skills repository. It guides users through various stages like idea refinement, implementation, and codebase maintenance. The tool manages context hygiene, handles session handoffs, and triages incoming issues, ensuring efficient navigation through complex coding agent workflows.

Enables cross-version binary symbol migration using LLM-based comparison. Recovers function names in updated binaries without PDBs by comparing old symbolized binaries with new stripped ones. Outputs YAML mappings for automated renaming. Ideal for reverse engineering maintenance, software updates, and kernel driver analysis where symbols are missing.

This skill covers managing block storage volumes including LVM, cloud-based EBS, filesystem creation, snapshots, and RAID configurations. It guides users through provisioning raw disks, partitioning, mounting, and extending volumes without downtime. Essential for DevOps and system administrators handling disk storage lifecycle from setup to production maintenance.

Orchestrates maintenance workflows for the brooks-lint plugin, running a sequential subagent pipeline (author, eval, QA, trigger-audit, release) to add or edit skills, refresh eval suites, keep manifests and docs in sync, and audit trigger boundaries. Ensures quality gates and consistency across the repository.

This skill reviews test suite quality using established testing literature to identify brittleness, mock abuse, unclear fixtures, weak assertions, slow feedback, and maintenance risks. It diagnoses structural problems in existing test suites based on classic engineering books like xUnit Test Patterns and The Art of Unit Testing, ensuring robust and maintainable testing practices.

Provides guidance and patterns for managing Windows 11 systems, including configuration, updates, and maintenance tasks. Use this skill when you need to perform system administration on Windows 11.

Refactor tangled or hard-to-maintain code into clean, testable modules using SOLID principles. Assess code smells, plan incremental changes, and verify with tests for safer long-term maintenance.
