Configure this repo for the engineering skills: set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the other engineering 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
# Setup Matt Pocock's Skills Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the engineering skills assume: - **Issue tracker**: where issues live (GitHub by default; local markdown is also supported out of the box) - **Triage labels**: the strings used for the five canonical triage roles - **Domain docs**: where `CONTEXT.md` and ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script. Explore, present what you found, confirm with the user, then write. ## Process ### 1. Explore Look at the current repo to understand its starting state. Read whatever exists; don't assume: - `git remote -v` and `.git/config`: is this a GitHub repo? Which one? - `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` at the repo root: does either exist? Is there already an `## Agent skills` section in either? - `CONTEXT.md` and `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the repo root - `docs/adr/` and any `src/*/docs/adr/` directories - `docs/agents/`: does this skill's prior output already exist? - `.scratch/`: a sign that a local-markdown issue tracker convention is already in use …

How to install
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/setup-matt-pocock-skills@sha256:2bcd89e97777cdb7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.15c9348, 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.
