setup-matt-pocock-skills
Sets up an `## Agent skills` block in AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md and `docs/agents/` so the engineering skills know this repo's issue tracker (GitHub or local markdown), triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run before first use of `to-issues`, `to-prd`, `triage`, `diagnose`, `tdd`, `improve-codebase-architecture`, or `zoom-out` — or if those skills appear to be missing context about the issue tracker, triage labels, or domain docs.
npx skills add stevesolun/ctx --skill setup-matt-pocock-skills --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.
# Setup Matt Pocock's Skills Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the engineering skills assume: - **Issue tracker** — where issues live (GitHub by default; local markdown is also supported out of the box) - **Triage labels** — the strings used for the five canonical triage roles - **Domain docs** — where `CONTEXT.md` and ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script. Explore, present what you found, confirm with the user, then write. ## Process ### 1. Explore Look at the current repo to understand its starting state. Read whatever exists; don't assume: - `git remote -v` and `.git/config` — is this a GitHub repo? Which one? - `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` at the repo root — does either exist? Is there already an `## Agent skills` section in either? - `CONTEXT.md` and `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the repo root - `docs/adr/` and any `src/*/docs/adr/` directories - `docs/agents/` — does this skill's prior output already exist? - `.scratch/` — sign that a local-markdown issue tracker convention is already in use ### 2.

What does the setup-matt-pocock-skills skill do?
Sets up an `## Agent skills` block in AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md and `docs/agents/` so the engineering skills know this repo's issue tracker (GitHub or local markdown), triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run before first use of `to-issues`, `to-prd`, `triage`, `diagnose`, `tdd`, `improve-codebase-architecture`, or `zoom-out` — or if those skills appear to be missing context about the issue tracker, triage labels, or domain docs.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add stevesolun/ctx --skill setup-matt-pocock-skills --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 stevesolun/ctx, a repository with 569 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.
