# brooks-lint — Maintenance Harness (Orchestrator) ## When to Use Use this skill when you need maintenance orchestrator for the brooks-lint plugin itself. Runs a sequential subagent pipeline — author → eval → QA → trigger-audit → release — to add or edit a skill, refresh the eval suite, keep the four manifests + README + CHANGELOG + AGENTS/GEMINI in sync, audit trigger... This skill orchestrates work **on the brooks-lint repo itself**. It runs a sequential subagent pipeline: each stage is a dedicated agent defined in `.claude/agents/`. Spawn each with the `Agent` tool, `subagent_type` set to the agent name, and **always `model: "opus"`**. Stages depend on each other in order, so this is a pipeline, not a parallel team. ## Pipeline ``` [orchestrator] Phase 0 context check Phase 1 classify request → select stages Phase 2 run selected stages in order, with a QA loop-back: skill-author → eval-curator → consistency-qa ─(FAIL)→ back to author │ PASS ▼ trigger-boundary-auditor (only if a description changed) ▼ release-manager (only if release requested) Phase 3 report + collect feedback ``` ## Phase 0 — Context check Determine the run mode before doing anything: - `_workspace/brooks-harne

About this skill
What does the brooks-harness skill do?

Maintenance orchestrator for the brooks-lint plugin itself. Runs a sequential subagent pipeline — author → eval → QA → trigger-audit → release — to add or edit a skill, refresh the eval suite, keep the four manifests + README + CHANGELOG + AGENTS/GEMINI in sync, audit trigger...

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill brooks-harness --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 sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 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.
