What it does
Scaffold a new brooks-lint analysis skill so it passes `npm run validate` and `npm run evals` on the first try, generates skills/{name}/SKILL.md (with the mandatory "Do NOT trigger for:" clause and a Process section citing guide step ranges) plus skills/{name}/{name}-guide.md (sequentially numbered steps), then appends paired eval scenarios. Triggers when the maintainer asks to "add a new skill", "scaffold a skill", or "create a brooks-lint mode". Do NOT trigger for: editing an existing skill's content, adding a single eval to an existing skill, or authoring skills for some other plugin.
brooks-lint, New Skill Scaffold
Skill name comes from the user request (kebab-case, e.g. brooks-security). If empty,
ask for the name and a one-line purpose first.
Follow the repo's "Adding a New Skill" checklist exactly:
- Create
skills/{name}/SKILL.mdwith frontmatter,name, adescriptionthat ends with aDo NOT trigger for:clause (validate-enforced for shipped skills; omitting it causes false triggering),metadata:withopencode/slash: "true", and aProcesssection of 3, 6 bullets that cite the guide's step ranges inline (e.g.Scan risks (Steps 1, 6 of the guide)). Mirror the structure of an existing skill such asskills/brooks-review/SKILL.md(Setup → Process → Mode line). - Create
skills/{name}/{name}-guide.mdwith sequentially numbered steps, no gaps, no duplicates. Sub-steps likeStep 2aare allowed. The guide owns the detailed steps; the SKILL.md Process is just an orientation skeleton. - Wire the framework. The new SKILL.md Setup section must Read the relevant
_shared/files (common.mdfor Iron Law + Report Template, plusdecay-risks.md/test-decay-risks.mdas applicable),_shared/is NOT auto-loaded. - Add eval coverage to
evals/evals.json: append with the next sequentialidat least one happy-path scenario (with the relevant risk code inexpected_output) and at least one false-positive scenario flaggedno_risk_codes: true. Each scenario needsid,name,prompt,expected_output,mode,files. - Validate.
npm run validate(structure + step continuity + Process-section presence) andnpm run evals(eval schema). Fix until both pass. - Local-test. Link the new skill folder from
skills/into.agents/skills/alongside the_sharedsymlink, then invoke it with$<skill-name>in a Codex session and verify the Iron Law output.
