The first command installs just this skill, by the name in its SKILL.md; the second installs the whole repository.

Wait, I don’t understand where you’ve got to here. Re-pitch that: give me a little bit of context, talk in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, and use the ubiquitous language from CONTEXT.md (follow CONTEXT-MAP.md to the right one if the repo has more than one).

Colophon for this issue

How this issue was made

Source: github.com/mattpocock/skills, branch main, last pushed 18 September 2026.
Licence: MIT — the text of every skill is reproduced unmodified, frontmatter included, under the upstream licence.
Discovery: 38 skills found by walking the repository tree for SKILL.md, not by matching a directory convention. 4 distinct layouts observed: skills/engineering/*/SKILL.md, skills/in-progress/*/SKILL.md, skills/misc/*/SKILL.md, skills/productivity/*/SKILL.md.
Issue colours: Resolved from a curated brand profile — hue 253°, chroma 0.140. Two accent tones are generated per issue and each is proven against its own ground before it ships: a single accent that passes AA on both light and dark paper is arithmetically impossible.
Heading repairs: None needed in this skill: the outline was already valid.
Spec compliance: Every skill satisfies the Agent Skills specification’s frontmatter rules.
Images: Images inside a skill come from the upstream repository. Where the author gave no alternative text we mark the image decorative rather than inventing a description — a plausible caption we made up is worse than none for the reader who depends on it.
Marketplace: A plugin manifest is published at .claude-plugin/marketplace.json by Matt Pocock, declaring 1 plugin. It is read for editorial metadata only — never as the skill index, which is always the repository tree.
Signal: Install counts come from skills.sh. They measure downloads, not quality, and an unranked repository is not an unread one.
Agent surfaces: The whole issue is available as one markdown document at /mattpocock/skills.md, and each skill at its own .md URL.
Publication: Set by Skills Docs from the source repository. Body text is Literata at the reader’s chosen size and measure; code is Geist Mono. Nothing on this page was written by us except this paragraph.
