Use when the stack profile names a tool no installed skill covers, or the user asks for a new skill. Authors one in the house style, audit-first and profile-aware, into the project's .claude/skills or this plugin repo, then checks it.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Extend Skillset
Turns "no skill covers X" into a skill that fits the set. Template and checklist: [skill-template.md](skill-template.md). House style: this repo's `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## 1. Audit (change nothing)
```bash
cat .claude/stack-profile.md 2>/dev/null
ls .claude/skills 2>/dev/null; ls skills/*/ 2>/dev/null | head -80
grep -rli "<tool or topic>" .claude/skills skills 2>/dev/null | head
```
Answer three questions before writing anything:
1. Is there already a skill that covers it (even partly)? Extend that one; do not add a twin.
2. Is the gap a *procedure* with a trigger ("when X, do Y")? If it is only a fact, add it to a reference file or `_shared/` instead.
3. Is the stack stable enough to encode? A tool in the "Assess" ring of [tech-radar.md](../_shared/tech-radar.md) gets a short skill with a warning, not a full one.
## 2. Decide
| Situation | Action |
|---|---|
| Existing skill covers it | Edit it; add the case; stop. |
| Fact only | Add a rule to the nearest reference file; stop. |
| New procedure | Continue. |
Choose the destination (ask once with `AskUserQuestion`, recommended first):

How to install
mdr add velimirmueller/claude-skills/extend-skillset@sha256:2a0047f0c4d9fd21The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.50bfdb9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
