Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# AI Ready This skill helps the user install the latest [ai-ready](https://github.com/johnpapa/ai-ready) skill by [John Papa](https://github.com/johnpapa). *Why?*: The full ai-ready skill is ~600 lines of detailed instructions that evolve frequently. This wrapper keeps it discoverable here while the source of truth stays in [johnpapa/ai-ready](https://github.com/johnpapa/ai-ready) — always up to date. ## Steps 1. Tell the user to add the skill by running this command inside Copilot CLI: ``` /skills add johnpapa/ai-ready ``` This downloads the latest version of the skill to their personal skills directory. Re-running the command updates to the latest version. 2. Remind the user to review the skill before loading it. They can inspect it with: ```bash head -20 ~/.copilot/skills/ai-ready/SKILL.md ``` 3. After the user confirms they've reviewed and installed it, tell them to reload skills with `/skills reload` and then say `make this repo ai-ready`. 4. Do **not** run the command on the user's behalf. The user must run it themselves.

What does the ai-ready skill do?
Make any repo AI-ready — analyzes your codebase and generates AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, CI workflows, issue templates, and more. Mines your PR review patterns and creates files customized to your stack. USE THIS SKILL when the user asks to "make this repo ai-ready", "set up AI config", or "prepare this repo for AI contributions".
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill ai-ready --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
