make-it-runbook skillA
make-it-runbook is agent-read markdown (skill) from mostafa-drz/claude-skills: Turns the current conversation into a trackable, phase-by-phase runbook: a page with a checkbox per step, a progress bar, amber bars for forced waits, notes for warnings, and copyable literal values (commands, DNS records, amounts). Distills the chat first, so only the final agreed state survives: advice that was later corrected, changed values and tangents are dropped, steps run in real execution order, and each wait sits where it actually blocks. Ticks persist in the browser; prints to PDF wit.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Make it a runbook You worked something out in the chat: an email setup, a migration, a move. The steps are scattered across twenty messages, some were corrected halfway, and a couple of them have to wait a day. This turns that into one page you can work through: tick as you go, come back tomorrow, and never follow the advice that was later taken back. In Claude Desktop and claude.ai the skill starts automatically on a matching request, with no slash command. "Make it a runbook" is the natural trigger. Two references, loaded when a step needs them: [`distill.md`](./references/distill.md) (turning a messy conversation into the final agreed steps: **read it every time**) · [`runbook-schema.md`](./references/runbook-schema.md) (the data the page renders from, and the id rules). --- ## The flow `conversation → distill → runbook.json → validate → page`. Copy this checklist into your reply and tick it off, because the distillation is where a confident-looking runbook goes wrong: ``` Runbook progress: - [ ] 1. Distill: ledger → final agreed steps, execution order, waits, notes, literals - [ ] 2. Ask only what blocks the shape (≤3 questions, defaults) or flag it on the step …
