minimum-viable-agentic
Guide creation of minimum viable agentic layer for a codebase. Use when starting agentic coding in a new project, bootstrapping essential components, or creating the minimal scaffolding for agent success.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill minimum-viable-agentic --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Minimum Viable Agentic Layer Skill Guide teams through creating the essential agentic layer components to start agentic coding. ## When to Use - Starting agentic coding in a new project - Adding agentic layer to existing codebase - Understanding bare minimum requirements - Quick-starting agentic automation ## Core Concept > "For your minimum viable agentic layer, you really only need these pieces: AI developer workflow directory, prompts, and plans." ## Minimum Viable Structure ```text project/ ├── specs/ # Plans for agents │ └── (generated plans go here) ├── .claude/ │ └── commands/ # Agentic prompts │ ├── chore.md # Chore planning │ └── implement.md # Implementation HOP └── adws/ # AI Developer Workflows ├── adw_modules/ │ └── agent.py # Core execution └── adw_chore_implement.py # Gateway script ``` Total: 4-5 files to bootstrap. ## Implementation Workflow ### Step 1: Create Directory Structure ```bash mkdir -p specs mkdir -p .claude/commands mkdir -p adws/adw_modules ``` ### Step 2: Create Chore Template `.claude/commands/chore.md`: ```markdown # Chore Planning Create a detailed plan for this chore task. ## Task $ARGUMENTS ## Output Create a spec file at: specs/chore-{adw_id}-

What does the minimum-viable-agentic skill do?
Guide creation of minimum viable agentic layer for a codebase. Use when starting agentic coding in a new project, bootstrapping essential components, or creating the minimal scaffolding for agent success.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill minimum-viable-agentic --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.
