Trigger: improve skills, audit skills, refactor skills, skill quality. Audit and upgrade existing LLM-first skills.
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
## Activation Contract Use this skill when auditing, refactoring, normalizing, or improving existing `SKILL.md` files. Use `gentle-ai-skill-creator` when creating a brand-new skill from a reusable pattern. ## Hard Rules - Read `docs/skill-style-guide.md` first and treat it as the normative style contract. - Treat `SKILL.md` as the source of truth; preserve author intent, critical rules, activation semantics, and output requirements. - Use `.atl/skill-registry.md` as an index of skill names, triggers, scopes, and exact paths when available. - Default to audit-only. Modify files only when the user explicitly asks to apply improvements. - Never delete meaningful content silently; move long explanation, examples, templates, or schemas into local `references/` or `assets/`. - Do not invent triggers, policies, or domain rules. Mark ambiguous cases for human review. ## Decision Gates | Situation | Action | | --- | --- | | Missing or invalid frontmatter | Fix `name`, quoted one-line `description`, `license`, and `metadata` | | Skill reads like tutorial docs | Convert to runtime instructions and move background to `references/` | …

How to install
mdr add gentleman-programming/gentle-pi/gentle-ai-skill-improver@sha256:83d41f4e3f5397e6The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
