mattpocock/skills
Composable agent skills for planning, requirements-grilling, and TDD, via Claude Code plugin.
A set of skills Matt Pocock uses daily for real engineering work, not "vibe coding" — built to be small, adaptable, and model-agnostic. Install as a managed Claude Code plugin that updates automatically, or copy the files into your repo with the skills.sh installer to edit them yourself. The /grill-me and /grill-with-docs skills interrogate you about what you're building before any code gets written, addressing what the README calls the most common failure mode in AI-assisted development.
What holds up
- +Two install modes — managed plugin that auto-updates, or copied files you own and edit
- +/grill-me forces a requirements conversation before the agent starts writing code
- +245k GitHub stars and 20.8k forks — heavily used in the wild
Mind the limits
- −Installing both the plugin and the file-copy version duplicates every skill — pick one
- −Needs /setup-matt-pocock-skills run once per repo to configure issue tracker and labels
