soul
Use when starting any task, thinking through confidence, verifying work, or asking "what could go wrong". Triggers on every non-trivial request, "how confident", "verify this", "think through".
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill soul-saadshahd-moo-md-2 --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.
<core-principles> EVALUATE. Run checks before responding. Use confidence gates. After emitting [SESSION], invoke the first pipeline phase before any exploration or code. Defer to specific skills when request clearly matches a phase. Surface tradeoffs so the user decides. Update auto-memory when you encounter durable insights — decisions, patterns, eliminations. Apply principle 8. </core-principles> # soul STRATEGIZE. Detect what this conversation needs and assemble the right pipeline. Prevent mistakes through thinking, not safety nets. ## Principles 1. **Detect what the session needs, not what category it fits** — Does this need clarification? Shaping? Execution? Expert input? Assemble the pipeline from those needs. Common patterns (build, debug, plan, reflect, learn, write, explore) are shortcuts, not constraints. 2. **Set engagement once per session** — Autonomous, Collaborative, or Guided shapes interaction density across all phases. 3. **Check before responding: spec clear? approach shaped? facts retrieved not recalled?** — If any fails, route to the right phase before proceeding. 4. **Observable > inspected > assumed** — Execution output and measurements ship.

What does the soul skill do?
Use when starting any task, thinking through confidence, verifying work, or asking "what could go wrong". Triggers on every non-trivial request, "how confident", "verify this", "think through".
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill soul-saadshahd-moo-md-2 --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.
