knowledge-synthesis
Cross-project pattern recognition — abstract, generalize, connect, store at the highest true level
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill knowledge-synthesis-fabioc-aloha-airs-data-analysis --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Knowledge Synthesis Skill > Extract the reusable from the specific. Store at the highest level that remains true. ## The Synthesis Process ### 1. Abstract — Strip project-specific details | Before (project-specific) | After (abstracted) | | ------------------------- | ------------------ | | "In Alex extension, synapses.json breaks when files are renamed" | "Connection metadata breaks when target files are renamed" | | "We migrated knowledge files to skills/" | "When reorganizing knowledge files, update all internal references" | | "Alex's dream runs brain-qa.ps1" | "Automated health checks should run validation scripts" | **Test**: Would this insight help someone who's never seen this project? ### 2. Generalize — Find the abstraction level | Level | Example | Store As | | ----- | ------- | -------- | | Project-specific | "Alex uses synapses.json" | Don't store globally | | Technology-specific | "JSON schema files break silently on rename" | GI-* insight | | Architecture pattern | "Self-referencing metadata needs rename-aware tooling" | GK-* pattern | | Universal principle | "Metadata that references other files is fragile by nature" | GK-* (high value) | **Store at the highest le

What does the knowledge-synthesis skill do?
Cross-project pattern recognition — abstract, generalize, connect, store at the highest true level
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill knowledge-synthesis-fabioc-aloha-airs-data-analysis --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 majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 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.
