Two findings from live-hook e2e smoke 2026-05-25 on this Windows machine: (1) README snippet was pwsh-only — PS 7 Core isn't on stock Windows. PS 5.1 (`powershell`) is always present and the hook script runs cleanly under both. README now leads with `powershell` and notes the `pwsh` swap for PS 7+ users. (2) Missing caveat that hooks load at Claude Code session start — mid-session edits to ~/.claude/settings.json don't activate the hook until CC restart. Without this note user would think the hook is broken after applying the snippet (standalone smoke would pass but live in-session wouldn't fire). Added explicit restart instruction + verification recipe. Also: dist/session-handoff.skill now tracked (was missing since promotion — inconsistent with other dist/*.skill artifacts that ship in repo). PATCH bump 0.3.1 → 0.3.2 (docs-only, no behavioral change in hook or skill). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Joint workshop and storage for Claude skills.
About
A shared workspace where Claude and I author, debug, and ship skills together:
skills/— editable sources (markdown + assets), the source of truthdist/— built.skillarchives for Claude, committed to the repohermes/— Hermes-rollout config:mapping.yamland anymode: manualoverrides underhermes/skills/dist-hermes/— pre-converted Hermes-flavour skill tree, committed (regenerated byscripts/build-hermes.py)scripts/— utilities:build.sh(source →.skill),install.sh(source →~/.claude/skills/),build-hermes.py(source →dist-hermes/).wiki/,.tasks/— working notes and the task board
Quick start
Install skills on a fresh machine
Windows (PowerShell):
git clone <repo> claude-skills
cd claude-skills
bash scripts/install.sh # copies every skills/* into ~/.claude/skills/
# or only specific ones:
bash scripts/install.sh caveman wiki-maintainer
Linux / macOS (bash):
git clone <repo> claude-skills
cd claude-skills
bash scripts/install.sh # copies every skills/* into ~/.claude/skills/
# or only specific ones:
bash scripts/install.sh caveman wiki-maintainer
The install target can be overridden with CLAUDE_SKILLS_DIR=/path bash scripts/install.sh.
install.shworks on Windows under git-bash. A nativeinstall.ps1is on the task board but not yet implemented.
Using skills in projects
Once the skills are installed, the easiest way to wire them into a new
(or existing) project is the project-bootstrap
skill. Tell the agent "bootstrap" or "set everything up" from the
project's folder and it will, in one pass:
- initialize
git(if missing) and write a sane.gitignore - create a starter
README.md - lay out
.wiki/per the Karpathy LLM Wiki pattern (delegated tosetup-wiki) - lay out
.tasks/with the canonical task board (delegated tosetup-tasks) - write
CLAUDE.mdwith skill triggers (use superpowers,use project wiki,use task management system,check across all projects,we're on Windows) - record the skill versions used in
.wiki/concepts/bootstrap-manifest.mdso cross-project layout drift stays debuggable - check whether the official
superpowers@claude-plugins-officialplugin is installed and, if not, print the install command — theuse superpowerstrigger is a no-op without it
Two modes, picked automatically: init for an empty folder, upgrade
for an existing project (the skill only fills the gaps and never overwrites
without explicit confirmation). On upgrade, CLAUDE.md is merged
idempotently — only canonical trigger lines that aren't already present are
appended after explicit confirm, so re-running project-bootstrap after a
template change picks up the new triggers without duplicating the old ones.
Edit a skill
# 1. Edit skills/<name>/SKILL.md (or its assets).
# 2. Push the changes into the live skill folder:
bash scripts/install.sh <name>
# 3. Rebuild the archive (optional, but handy before a commit):
bash scripts/build.sh <name>
Build .skill archives
bash scripts/build.sh # all skills
bash scripts/build.sh caveman # one skill
build.sh uses zip when it's available (Linux/macOS) or delegates to
scripts/build.ps1 via PowerShell (Windows without zip). On Windows you
can also run powershell scripts/build.ps1 directly.
Build for Hermes
The same skills/ are rolled out to Hermes Agent (Nous Research) on factory
Linux machines. The converter reads hermes/mapping.yaml (per-skill
mode / category / replace-rules / skip-list) and writes a Hermes-formatted
skill tree to dist-hermes/, which is committed to the repo.
python scripts/build-hermes.py # regenerate dist-hermes/ from mapping
Every skill in skills/ must have an explicit entry in mapping.yaml
(auto / manual / skip / pending); the build fails on unmapped skills.
Skip and pending entries land in dist-hermes/SKIPPED.md with reasons. Full
design rationale lives in
.wiki/concepts/hermes-skills-rollout-design.md.
