Skills
Techniques détectables réutilisables dans des fichiers SKILL.md, avec signaux de détection, procédures et hooks d'application pour les suites de plan et les audits d'écosystème.
Les skills vivent sous forme de dossiers sous src/apothem/skills/, chacune
dotée d'un point d'entrée SKILL.md. Les skills capturent des techniques
détectables réutilisables — elles ont un signal de détection, une procédure et
un hook d'application.
Le catalogue complet des skills est généré plus bas, dans l'Inventaire généré des skills.
Contrat de frontmatter
SKILL.md porte le frontmatter canonique à huit clés. Le contrat lisible par
machine est skill.schema.json
(additionalProperties: false) ; ce bloc le reflète :
---
name: <skill name>
version: <semver>
updated: <YYYY-MM-DD>
description: <one-line role>
archetype: <class-template, e.g. workflow-template>
userInvocable: <true | false>
disable-model-invocation: <true | false>
allowed-tools: <comma-separated read-only tools and scoped rules, e.g. "Read, Glob, Grep" or "Read, Bash(git log *)">
---Émission par environnement
Les skills sources utilisent les clés ci-dessus. Certains environnements lisent des clés différentes ; l'installation les traduit donc pour cet environnement uniquement :
| Environnement | Ce que l'installation modifie |
|---|---|
| Claude Code (installation et plugin) | Renomme userInvocable en user-invocable, la clé que lit Claude Code. Claude Code ignore la clé en camelCase ; sans ce renommage, une skill marquée userInvocable: false apparaîtrait donc toujours dans le menu /. |
Dossiers de skills partagés de niveau utilisateur : ~/.agents/skills/ (écrit par Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf et Zed) et ~/.codebuddy/skills/, ~/.kiro/skills/ et ~/.trae/skills/ | Une seule forme pour toute installation qui écrit l'un de ces dossiers, de sorte que les installations ne réécrivent jamais les fichiers les unes des autres. Elle renomme userInvocable en user-invocable, déplace version, updated, archetype et portability sous une table metadata: finale de chaînes entre guillemets, et écrit agents/openai.yaml avec policy.allow_implicit_invocation: false à côté de chaque skill dont la source définit disable-model-invocation: true, car Codex ignore cette clé et lit ~/.agents/skills/, qu'un adaptateur Codex l'ait écrit ou non. Une commande enveloppée en skill conserve son corps entier et s'ouvre sur une note fixe qui nomme les dossiers des règles et des modèles, ~/.config/apothem/rules/ et ~/.config/apothem/templates/. Les clés de premier niveau restantes sont name, description, user-invocable, disable-model-invocation, allowed-tools, argument-hint et metadata. |
| Qwen Code | Réécrit la chaîne allowed-tools séparée par des virgules sous forme de liste allowedTools, une entrée YAML par ligne, car Qwen Code ne lit que la clé en camelCase et exige une liste. Chaque entrée conserve la graphie de la source, y compris des motifs tels que Bash(git status *). Toutes les autres clés et le corps de la skill s'installent sans modification. |
| Autres environnements | Aucune modification. |
skill.schema.json accepte l'une ou l'autre graphie de l'indicateur
d'invocabilité par l'utilisateur et exige exactement l'une des deux.
Discipline de rédaction
- Un dossier par skill. Chaque skill est son propre dossier, avec le point
d'entrée à
SKILL.md. - Signal de détection. Le corps des skills s'ouvre sur le signal de détection qui déclenche la technique.
- Procédure + application. Les skills portent à la fois la procédure à appliquer et le signal d'application qui ferme la boucle.
- Longueur de la description.
descriptioncompte au plus 1 024 caractères, la limite fixée par Agent Skills. Les outils plus stricts rejettent ou tronquent une description plus longue, et le schéma impose cette limite.
Inventaire généré des skills
| Name | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
decision-matrix | Choose between two or more options with a weighted, evidence-cited matrix, a runner-up and a first step. Use when the user asks to 'compare these options', 'help me choose between', 'weigh the trade-offs' or 'which one should we pick'. Not for single-answer lookups or building a chosen option. | src/apothem/skills/decision-matrix/SKILL.md |
dependency-upgrade | Upgrade a project's third-party dependencies with changelog review, pinned versions and the host's lint, test and type-check gates. Runs only when the user invokes it (for example to bump deps or refresh the lockfile). Breaking and major bumps stop for a question; --dry-run classifies without writing; --package NAME scopes to one dependency. | src/apothem/skills/dependency-upgrade/SKILL.md |
dev-toolkit | Run a disciplined engineering loop: reproduce-first debugging, test-first red-green-refactor, vertical slices, or a requirement split into issues. Use for 'diagnose a bug', 'do TDD', 'break this into vertical slices' or 'turn this into issues'. Not for one-line edits or multi-agent orchestration. | src/apothem/skills/dev-toolkit/SKILL.md |
diagram-authoring | Author, validate and render diagrams (flowchart, sequence, state, ER, architecture) and data visualizations to SVG, PNG or PDF. Use when the user asks to 'draw a diagram', 'make a flowchart', 'render this Mermaid' or 'export a diagram to SVG'. Source is syntax-validated before render. | src/apothem/skills/diagram-authoring/SKILL.md |
document-authoring | Write a long, cited document (thesis, report, LaTeX) from an approved outline, with checked citations and a PDF compile. Use when the user asks to 'write a thesis', 'author a LaTeX document', 'compile this to PDF' or 'manage the bibliography'. Not for short edits; pipeline papers: research-paper. | src/apothem/skills/document-authoring/SKILL.md |
ecosystem-audit | Audit the apothem configuration tree as a whole for drift, orphans, dangling references and invalid frontmatter. Use when the user asks to 'audit the ecosystem', 'validate the apothem tree' or 'sweep for drift'. Report-only unless --fix is passed. Changed artifacts only: convention-auditor. | src/apothem/skills/ecosystem-audit/SKILL.md |
eval-harness | Build a reproducible evaluation harness for a prompt or model: versioned labeled dataset, scorer, runner and a report with pass rate, interval and regressions. Use when the user asks to 'build an eval' or 'compare models on a labeled task'. One campaign: eval; rubric scoring: prompt-evaluator. | src/apothem/skills/eval-harness/SKILL.md |
incident-runbook | Write or run an incident runbook (Trigger, Diagnosis, Action, Verification, Rollback) with a rollback per action and confirmation before live changes. Use when the user asks to 'write a runbook', 'define an on-call procedure' or 'document recovery steps'. Not for post-mortems. | src/apothem/skills/incident-runbook/SKILL.md |
issue-lifecycle | Takes a reported defect from issue to fix, one stage per run. Use for 'create an issue', 'size this issue', 'reproduce this bug', 'fix issue 123', 'ask the reporter for details' or 'open a draft PR'. Manual only; posts nothing unasked. Debug loops go to dev-toolkit, advisories to vuln-triage. | src/apothem/skills/issue-lifecycle/SKILL.md |
knowledge-wiki | Adds sources to and audits an index-first Markdown knowledge base, when the user asks to 'add this paper to the wiki', 'ingest these sources', 'lint the wiki' or 'what changed in the knowledge base'. Modes: ingest, lint, drift, hubs. Not source discovery or a one-off summary. | src/apothem/skills/knowledge-wiki/SKILL.md |
multi-source-research | Produces a cited, cross-verified research report with confidence levels, when the user asks to 'research X deeply', 'find sources on' or 'gather evidence about'. Finds new sources and writes the report; given documents: source-synthesis, one claim: fact-checker, a bare source list: research-scout. | src/apothem/skills/multi-source-research/SKILL.md |
paper-toolkit | Papers with no research suite: 'write a reading note', 'compare these papers', 'draft related work', 'what would reviewers ask', 'dedupe my references', 'turn DOIs into BibTeX entries'. Suite or referee review: research-* commands. Reference checks: citation-auditor. Loose files: source-synthesis. | src/apothem/skills/paper-toolkit/SKILL.md |
perspectives | Answers a contested question by arguing it from several separate viewpoints, then reconciling them, when the user asks to 'argue both sides', 'what would a skeptic say' or 'we are split on'. Weighted choices go to decision-matrix, claim checks to fact-checker, builds and reviews to workflow. | src/apothem/skills/perspectives/SKILL.md |
plan-suite | Master Plan Suite template, read by path by the /plan pipeline stages (spec, generate, review, design, audit, execute, status, amend). Holds master-template.md, the canonical plan-suite specification. A template, not invoked directly and not listed; use the /plan commands instead. | src/apothem/skills/plan-suite/SKILL.md |
projectify | Builds the Description, Instruction and knowledge files for a chat-app Project or custom assistant within a measured context budget, when the user asks to 'projectify this', 'write Project instructions' or 'set up a custom assistant'. Not for repository rules, skills or commands. | src/apothem/skills/projectify/SKILL.md |
prompt-engineering | Designs a structured prompt and validates it against happy, edge and adversarial eval cases, when the user asks to 'design a prompt', 'write a system prompt for' or 'improve this prompt'. Delivers the prompt plus its eval set; not a running agent or a model benchmark (eval-harness). | src/apothem/skills/prompt-engineering/SKILL.md |
refactor-extract | Extracts a symbol or file without changing behavior, interactively: specifies what it does, re-derives it clean-room, then checks nothing regressed, when the user asks to 'extract this function' or 'pull this out into its own module'. Delegated refactors: refactor-surgeon. | src/apothem/skills/refactor-extract/SKILL.md |
research-suite | Research Suite template, read by path by the /research pipeline stages (ideate through disseminate). Holds the canonical research-suite surface: the ten rigor mandates and the thirteen-stage lifecycle. A template, not invoked directly and not listed; use the /research commands instead. | src/apothem/skills/research-suite/SKILL.md |
secret-rotation | Use when a credential has leaked or been committed ('rotate a secret', 'a key leaked') and must be retired safely: revokes the exposed secret at its issuer first, re-issues a least-privilege replacement, rewires config through env vars or a secret manager, then checks no plaintext remains. Runs only when the user invokes it. | src/apothem/skills/secret-rotation/SKILL.md |
source-synthesis | Reconciles given documents into one cited synthesis separating consensus from contested claims, when the user asks to 'synthesize these sources', 'combine these documents' or 'what do these say together'. Needs two or more sources. Finding them: multi-source-research; gap map: research-synthesis. | src/apothem/skills/source-synthesis/SKILL.md |
surgical-guard | Makes a minimal, anchor-bounded edit, then reviews only its diff for swallowed errors, hollow tests and docs drift, when the user asks to 'edit surgically', 'make a minimal diff' or 'guard this change'. Not for working out what the change should be (dev-toolkit). | src/apothem/skills/surgical-guard/SKILL.md |
teaching-pack | Builds a teaching pack from one paper or technical document: goals, curriculum, formula walk-throughs, worked examples, quiz with key, glossary, slides on request. For 'teach me this paper' or 'make a study guide from this spec'. Several sources: source-synthesis; critique: research-review. | src/apothem/skills/teaching-pack/SKILL.md |
test-authoring | Writes new behavior-first tests in Arrange-Act-Assert form, failing assertions first, covering happy path, edge boundaries and failures, when the user asks to 'write tests' or 'test this function'. Authors tests only. Whole-repo suite: test-suite; running tests: test-runner. | src/apothem/skills/test-authoring/SKILL.md |
ui-design | Designs or refines a user interface: classifies the surface, applies design rules and keeps DESIGN.md current, when the user asks to 'design a landing page', 'improve this UI', 'make it look better' or 'pick a palette and type scale'. Not for critique-only review (design-critic) or backend logic. | src/apothem/skills/ui-design/SKILL.md |
vuln-triage | Triages one named CVE or security advisory: severity band, affected surface in the lockfile, reachability, and a patch, upgrade, mitigate or accept route, when the user asks to 'triage this CVE' or 'does this advisory affect us'. Does not apply fixes or scan the whole repository. | src/apothem/skills/vuln-triage/SKILL.md |
workflow | Use for a non-trivial mission that needs independent parallel work plus adversarial verification: decomposes it, dispatches independent subagents under named return contracts, runs a refute-by-default critique on every finding, and discloses any beyond-mission fixes. Runs only when the user invokes it, as in 'fan out and verify'. | src/apothem/skills/workflow/SKILL.md |
