`ask-matt` now reads a skill's `SKILL.md` before stating what it does or recommending a step be skipped, instead of trusting its own one-line summaries ([#614](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/614)).\n\n- [#1304](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1304) [`5beb35b`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/5beb35b040e3de97e54fa9e386d7e42d15c295c2) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - `chief-of-staff` now keeps its memory in an LLM wiki (an `index.md` plus one page per topic, maintained through ingest, query and lint) and writes it as a historical record: every claim is dated, and every claim about code cites the commit it was true at.\n\n- [#1208](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1208) [`3da8c01`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/3da8c01116264675eeefbd6e9d59c734de9095cc) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - `code-review` now searches the repo for standards files and always hands `CODING_STANDARDS.md` / `CONTRIBUTING.md` to the Standards sub-agent ([#1065](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/1065)), runs both sub-agents in the foreground and uses their returned reports ([#1073](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/1073)), and resolves the issue tracker through the provided tracker doc instead of a hard-coded path ([#937](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/937)).\n\n- [#1209](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1209) [`f3fc563`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/f3fc5632f401156837ee3872f14fe33ccf1024ea) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - `diagnosing-bugs` Phase 5 now has the agent `diff` a forced mutation against a pristine copy before trusting the red, so an edit that silently changed nothing can't pass as a failing test ([#955](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/955)).\n\n- [#1187](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1187) [`e0efb6e`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/e0efb6e7435ebb420d8a25d6816ed1ebaa2d23d2) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - Fixed the GitHub tracker template's external-PR listing, which failed on `authorAssociation` ([#468](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/468), thanks @lofi-coding). Re-run `/setup-matt-pocock-skills` to refresh `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`.\n\n- [#1169](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1169) [`59db609`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/59db609eb1e18aaf59b63284d0e52255aff0c63c) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - The GitHub issue tracker template that `setup-matt-pocock-skills` writes now tells agents to file issues only into the user's own repo, never into `mattpocock/skills`, and to check the target repo before the first `gh issue create`. Agents working in a clone or fork of this repo had filed their specs and tickets here ([#541](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/541) to [#550](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/550)).\n\n- [#1193](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1193) [`95249b0`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/95249b0b49782349740fd9b8c6ce32b4e59e497a) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - `grilling` words each question so \"yes\" accepts the recommended answer, so agreeing never means answering \"no\" ([#706](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/706)).\n\n- [#1184](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/pull/1184) [`4f4e943`](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/commit/4f4e9433bbb7c4957ef33b1ea26686fb7c2a4cf4) Thanks [@mattpocock](https://github.com/mattpocock)! - `handoff` now names where the OS temp directory is (`$TMPDIR`, else `/tmp`; `%TEMP%` on Windows), so agents stop guessing ([#272](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/issues/272)).\n\n- [#1189](https://github.com/mattpocock/skill"},"readme":true,"readme_zh":false,"news":[{"title":"AI Coding Agent Skills for Real Engineers","url":"https://github.com/mattpocock/skills","hn":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49529329","source":"Hacker News","lang":"en","date":"2026-09-01","points":43,"comments":14},{"title":"Show HN: WYSIWYG markdown editor for any GitHub repo","url":"https://dunkdown.com","hn":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48279835","source":"Hacker News","lang":"en","date":"2026-05-26","points":4,"comments":2},{"title":"Skills for Real Engineers.
