Hit GitHub Trending #1 within 24 hours and 40k+ stars in days.Matt Pocock's curated pack of 16 composable skills enforcing real engineering over vibe coding. Covers planning (PRDs, issue breakdown, architecture), execution (TDD loops, triage, diagnose), and tooling (git guardrails, pre-commit, scaffolding) — installed interactively with prompts for your issue tracker and docs location.
npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skillsSummary
A direct dump of how the author of Total TypeScript actually runs Claude Code on real work. The pack enforces process rather than handing the agent one-shot prompts: each skill makes the agent a participant in your team's workflow instead of a code generator that ships and runs. Standout skills include to-prd and to-issues (turn a rough idea into a reviewable spec before any code is written), tdd (forces the red-green-refactor loop), improve-codebase-architecture (architecture review as a discrete pass), triage and diagnose (structured bug investigation), and git-guardrails-claude-code (blocks the most common AI-assisted git mistakes). The installer is interactive — pick the subset you want, answer a few questions about your stack, and it wires itself into your repo. MIT licensed and works across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, and any agent that reads the open agent-skills standard.
