What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md — showing the first 30 of 61 files.
-
agreement
Maintain sourced agreement context and scope in PROJECT.md, cite registered contracts/proposals, and record amendments without imposing a commercial workflow.
skills/agreement/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
architecture-knowledge
Explain US architecture professional-practice terms, phases, deliverables, roles, delivery methods, AIA contract families, CSI documentation systems, or NCS at a high level. Use for questions such as “what is a CD set?” or “what does 50% CDs mean?”; do not use for code/jurisdiction, outline-spec, agreement-scope, or work-plan work.

epd-research
Search for EPDs by product category, CSI division, or material type — finds EPDs from EC3, program operator registries, and manufacturer sites. Use when the user asks to "find EPDs for...", locate declarations for a material, or source low-carbon product documentation.
skills/epd-research/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -

Draft Project Manual specification requirements for EPD submittals and sourced GWP limits. Use for embodied-carbon requirements in project sections; use the EPD parsing, research or comparison skills for product evidence.

Resumable across sessions via PROGRESS.md. Use when the user runs $learn or /as:learn, says they're new to AI-assisted project work, or asks how to learn it.
skills/learn/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
