Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add doodledood/manifest-dev
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add doodledood/manifest-dev --skill harden-task-file — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/doodledood/manifest-devcp -r "manifest-dev/.claude/skills/harden-task-file" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the harden-task-file skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add doodledood/manifest-dev
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md — showing the first 30 of 67 files.
-
harden-task-file
Harden a manifest-dev task guidance file for one-shot quality — either /define's quality-gate/Default set or figure-out's probe set. Iterates: orthogonality gap analysis, user-approved additions, prompt review, fix, converge. Use when a task file needs comprehensive coverage or "harden task file".
.claude/skills/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)harden-task-file/ SKILL.md -
learn-from-session
Analyze Claude Code sessions to learn what went right/wrong and suggest high-confidence improvements to skills. Use when asked to analyze a session, learn from a session, or review workflow effectiveness.
.claude/skills/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)learn-from-session/ SKILL.md -
sync-claude-code-plugins
Sync the prompt-engineering plugin from a local clone of claude-code-plugins into .claude/ so the repo is self-contained for isolated/web environments. Copies agents/skills, removes only previously-synced items that disappeared upstream. Other content in .claude/ is left alone. Use when asked to sync claude-code-plugins, pull prompt-engineering, refresh prompt-engineering plugin.
.claude/skills/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)sync-claude-code-plugins/ SKILL.md -
sync-tools
Regenerate the Codex distribution copy of the plugin skills, and the copies of the shipped verify tool, and check them for drift. Run after changing anything under claude-plugins/*/skills. OpenCode, Pi and Cursor read the source tree directly and need no sync.
.claude/skills/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)sync-tools/ SKILL.md -
babysit-pr
Author-side PR lifecycle babysitter and companion to review-pr. Use when the user wants to tend an existing GitHub PR through CI, review threads, description sync, mergeability, auto-fixes, or asks to babysit a PR with or without an existing manifest.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ babysit-pr/ SKILL.md -
eli5
Explain a topic like I'm a 5 year old. Use when the user types /eli5 <topic> or asks for a dead-simple picture explainer of how something works.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ eli5/ SKILL.md -
handoff
Produce a self-contained context payload that lets a fresh agent continue without re-deriving what this session established. Use for cross-boundary transfer such as switching tools, starting a clean session, or handing off to another agent, and for DIY delegation flows where a focused side-session returns context to the parent.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ handoff/ SKILL.md -
prompt-engineering
Create, update, review, or discuss an LLM prompt — a system prompt, a skill, or an agent. Use when writing or improving a prompt, discussing a skill or agent, diagnosing prompt failures, or when the user says a prompt needs work.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ prompt-engineering/ SKILL.md -
review-pr-holistic
Called by review-pr after its reviewer fleet and judgment pass return: consolidates their findings against the PR's history into the set of comments worth posting — pruning what the PR already covers, merging duplicates, subordinating defects under premise questions, bounding to the reviewed range, and rewriting every body in the caller's voice. Not for direct use.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ review-pr-holistic/ SKILL.md -
review-pr-judgment
Called by review-pr in both of its modes: the whole-PR premise check that asks whether a change earns its keep against the pain it solves, firing only on concrete evidence and returning non-blocking author-facing questions, one per root, with no severity. Not for direct use.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ review-pr-judgment/ SKILL.md -
review-pr-thread-verify
Called by review-pr for each unresolved review thread it authored: judges from the thread, the author's replies, and the current code whether the original concern is addressed, stale, or still standing, and returns exactly one disposition with a drafted reply where one is needed. Not for direct use.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ review-pr-thread-verify/ SKILL.md -
review-pr
Autonomous PR review that posts high-signal, human-voiced comments under your account. Use when reviewing someone else's PR or your own manifest-driven PR, when you want a precision-tuned review you can walk away from, or when the user asks to review a PR, post a PR review, autoreview, loop review, or watch a PR.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ review-pr/ SKILL.md -
review-prompt
Review LLM prompts against the prompt-engineering skill's principles — leading with where each line came from — and report the findings without modifying files. Use when reviewing prompt quality, auditing a prompt, evaluating a system prompt, or checking whether prompt issues are high-confidence and fixable.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ review-prompt/ SKILL.md -
teach-me
Teach the learner to deeply understand a body of work — the current session's changes, a PR, an ADR, or any topic they name — the problem and why it existed, the solution and why it was built that way, and why it matters, incrementally and confirming mastery at each stage before advancing. Use when the user wants to understand what was just built or changed, asks to be taught or walked through a…
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ teach-me/ SKILL.md -
walk-pr
Walk through a PR or large diff together — your own or someone else's — one sub-changeset at a time and one review topic at a time within it. Use when reviewing a substantive PR collaboratively, walking a large refactor, or when the user asks to walk a PR, walk a diff, explain a PR, review collaboratively, or review a change together. Optional --canvas runs the walk in a live HTML artifact.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ walk-pr/ SKILL.md -
write-goal
Write one standalone goal defining what done means, in at most 4,000 characters, from a Manifest, a figure-out read, a Ticket, a handoff, a plain request or several of them. Use when the user wants to turn this work into a goal, or paste it into a goal field with no file reference behind it.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev-tools/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ write-goal/ SKILL.md -
auto
End-to-end autonomous execution: figure-out → define → do, chained without manual approval gates. Use when you want to define and execute without intervention during planning, when the user asks for autonomous or end-to-end work, or asks to go from idea to done without approval gates.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ auto/ SKILL.md -
check-pr
Read-only inspection of a single GitHub PR lifecycle — checks CI, review feedback (threads, review bodies, top-level comments), description sync, and mergeability, and returns PASS or FAIL with per-gate findings. Never invokes the merge button. Use when verifying a PR is ready to merge, polling lifecycle progress, checking mergeability, or babysitting a GitHub PR through CI and approvals.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ check-pr/ SKILL.md -
define
Manifest builder. Turns shared understanding into a verifiable Manifest with Deliverables, Acceptance Criteria, Global Invariants, and an Initial Approach. Use when planning features, scoping refactors, debugging complex issues, or when the user asks to define, scope, plan, spec out, make a manifest, or break down a task.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ define/ SKILL.md -
design
Guide visual and interaction design from the person, moment, and subject, with composable guidance for artifacts and creative directions. Use when creating or restyling a page, app, document, presentation, graphic, or prototype, or choosing how it should look and feel.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ design/ SKILL.md -
do
Manifest executor. Reads a Manifest and pursues it with full autonomy: reach a state where every Acceptance Criterion and Global Invariant holds, deciding for itself how to get there. Use when executing a manifest, running a plan, implementing a defined task, or when the user asks to run, execute, implement, or ship a manifest-backed plan. Not when the user has only approved a plan.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ do/ SKILL.md -
done
Completion marker for the /do workflow. Outputs a plain-prose summary of what was built. Called by /do after every Acceptance Criterion and Global Invariant has fresh PASS evidence, when the manifest is complete, all criteria pass, or the workflow needs to wrap up with a completion summary.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ done/ SKILL.md -
escalate
Terminal escalation for do when unresolved blockers require outside intervention and no useful independent work remains. Reports the evidence, recovery attempts, completed work, and intervention needed.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ escalate/ SKILL.md -
figure-out-team
Drive a multi-party deliberation in a Slack channel or thread. The agent is an involved orchestrator — presses rigorously, brings evidence, names trade-offs, surfaces disagreements, advances when answers cohere; owner-by-Slack-handle overrules. Use when the people involved cannot all sit in one chat, when deliberation has to happen in Slack, or when the user asks to figure out with the team, pres…
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ figure-out-team/ SKILL.md -
figure-out
Figure things out together — any topic, problem, or idea. Presses relentlessly until shared understanding is reached. Use when understanding is the deliverable rather than a preamble to acting, when figuring it out is the goal, or when the user asks to think through a decision, dig deeper, press an assumption, investigate why something is happening, or work through a problem.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ figure-out/ SKILL.md -
manifest-dev-help
Answer any question a person has about manifest-dev, with the why behind it: what it is for, its workflow and the autonomy ladder, each term a user meets (Manifest, Acceptance Criterion, Global Invariant, verification harness, recipe, ask-first, Lock, Debt, Ticket and the rest), how the parts relate, why each part exists, the practices it encodes, and what a Manifest, a run report, a pull request…
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ manifest-dev-help/ SKILL.md -
next-ticket
Read the project's Ticket store, choose the single best Ticket for the human-plus-AI session to work on now, claim it, and present it with the reason it leads. Use when asking what's next, what should I work on, or pulling the next Ticket from the backlog. Selection stops after presentation; execution belongs to run-ticket or the person holding the claim.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ next-ticket/ SKILL.md -
orchestrate
Coordinate an assigned project outcome or run ready Tickets from one effort, or the whole store, in parallel — each through run-ticket in its own session — land finished work one Ticket at a time, ticket up the debt runs leave, and keep a status page and one list of what waits on the person. By default it proposes each plan and waits for approval; with --autonomous it executes successive plans wi…
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ orchestrate/ SKILL.md -
poll-slack
Narrate new Slack messages in a channel or thread since a cursor. Returns a natural-language story of what was said, or a clear statement when there is nothing new. Use when a parent agent polls Slack and needs to know what changed, read a Slack delta, or understand a thread update without re-ingesting the whole thread.
claude-plugins/manifest-dev/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skills/ poll-slack/ SKILL.md -
review-code
Review a change along one specific quality dimension — bugs, design, simplicity, maintainability, testability, test quality, type safety, contracts, operational readiness, docs, prose value, change intent, defect-class completeness after a fix, or context-file adherence. Loads exactly one dimension reference and audits the diff against it, returning a structured PASS/FAIL report with severities.…

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.
