Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add zby/commonplace
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add zby/commonplace --skill cp-skill-add-collection — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/zby/commonplacecp -r "commonplace/kb/instructions/cp-skill-add-collection" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the cp-skill-add-collection skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add zby/commonplace
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.
-
cp-skill-add-collection
Add one new collection under kb/ with its binding COLLECTION.md, landing README, tag participation and routing, then validate it. Use when a project needs a new kind of long-lived content that no existing collection's contract fits.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-add-collection/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-connect
Discover connections for a single artifact. Writes a connect-report under kb/reports/cache/connect/<collection>/ without mutating library artifacts or indexes. Use with an artifact path or artifact name.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-connect/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-convert
Convert notes between types. Currently supports text to note by adding unverified structured frontmatter, renaming the file to match the title, and fixing backlinks. Use with a note path or note name.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-convert/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-ground
Ground one source-side claim by retaining minimum verbatim quotes or requiring the pinned snapshot. Use when a note needs source support or retained quotes; choose this skill, not cp-skill-ingest, for quote retention.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-ground/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-health-check
Diagnose Commonplace installation, skill discovery, command PATH, and workflows blocked by unavailable sub-agents, nesting depth, or context isolation.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-health-check/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-ingest
Use when asked to ingest one URL or local snapshot into a tracked .ingest.md source analysis, or to execute a bounded re-ingest request. Retaining quotes in an existing ingest is cp-skill-ground's job, not this skill's.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-ingest/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-library
Find and follow a Commonplace library procedure, instruction, or type by name. Use when the user names a Commonplace procedure or asks how Commonplace does something, and no more specific cp-skill applies.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-library/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-revise-autoreason
Experimentally revise a note with fresh critic, author, synthesizer, and blind-judge agents while retaining the incumbent as fallback.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-revise-autoreason/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-snapshot-web
Snapshot a URL into the local kb/sources/.snapshots/ cache, routing GitHub, X/Twitter, PDF, and ordinary web sources to the appropriate capture path.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-snapshot-web/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-validate
Run deterministic validation on KB artifacts, collections, collection landings, and the published redirect map, including schemas, links, required sections, and batch signals.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-validate/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-write-multistage
Write or rebuild one unsettled KB artifact through source-first reconstruction, consolidated authorship, independent review, and guarded promotion. Use when claims need grounding or synthesis; avoid it for settled local edits.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-write-multistage/ SKILL.md -
cp-skill-write
Write one KB document whose intended contribution is already determined, under its collection and type contracts; validate it and hand broader graph discovery to cp-skill-connect.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)cp-skill-write/ SKILL.md -
evaluate-scenarios
Measure framework overhead by decomposing scenarios into clean-context forks and reporting per-fork load plus aggregate cost.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)evaluate-scenarios/ SKILL.md -
operator-brief
Explain an existing complex technical finding to an operator when its practical meaning is obscured by implementation detail, task-local terminology, or a long causal chain. Do not use for routine updates or simple answers.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)operator-brief/ SKILL.md -
roughdraft-review
Open a Markdown file in Roughdraft, wait for the user's CriticMarkup review, then apply or respond to the feedback.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)roughdraft-review/ SKILL.md -
scan-agentic-system-transfer
Use when asked what a completed analyse-agentic-system set currently suggests for Commonplace under a named design question or priority. Produces selective living state, never system characterization or matrix data.
kb/instructions/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)scan-agentic-system-transfer/ SKILL.md -
analyse-agentic-system
Use when asked to analyse, review, or refresh an external agent runtime, orchestration system, agent operating layer, agent memory/knowledge/context-engineering system, or narrower model-dependent operational mechanism from inspectable sources.
kb/agentic-system-analyses/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)instructions/ analyse-agentic-system/ SKILL.md -
synthesize-agent-memory-landscape
Use when asked to write or refresh a public cross-system synthesis from retained analyse-agentic-system sets and their memory-comparison fields. Produces one commit-bound analysis; excludes legacy reviews and Commonplace transfer scans.
kb/agentic-systems/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)instructions/ synthesize-agent-memory-landscape/ SKILL.md -
skill-creator
Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.
kb/work/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)skill-creator-distillation/ sources/ claude-code-skill-creator/ SKILL.md -
delivery-probe-delegate
Probe skill for the delivery test. Use only when asked to run the delivery-probe-delegate check.
kb/work/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)framework-delivery/ probe-package/ library/ instructions/ delivery-probe-delegate/ SKILL.md -
delivery-probe-echo
Probe skill for the delivery test. Use only when asked to run the delivery-probe-echo check; takes one argument.
kb/work/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)framework-delivery/ probe-package/ library/ instructions/ delivery-probe-echo/ SKILL.md -
delivery-probe-library
Index of the delivery-probe library. Use when the user asks to follow, run, or look up a delivery-probe procedure, instruction, or type by name (for example "retire a widget" or "calibrate the gadget").
kb/work/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)framework-delivery/ probe-package/ library/ instructions/ delivery-probe-library/ SKILL.md -
delivery-probe-read
Probe skill for the delivery test. Use only when asked to run the delivery-probe-read check.
kb/work/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)framework-delivery/ probe-package/ library/ instructions/ delivery-probe-read/ SKILL.md
No skill matches that filter.
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.
