What is a “Skill”?

A skill is a small, self-contained prompt bundle (a SKILL.md + optional references/vocabulary) that teaches an agent:

• When to activate (trigger phrases in description)
• What rules to follow
• How to produce consistent outputs (examples, checklists, vocabularies)

What can skills do?

Typical capabilities provided by skills in this repo:

• Generate names (variables, functions, classes, files, DB tables/columns) that follow strict conventions
• Validate existing identifiers and explain what rule is violated
• Provide concise, domain-oriented examples based on an approved vocabulary
• Enforce consistency across languages (casing changes, patterns stay the same)

Installation

pnpx skills add thonymg/skills --skill='*'
npx skills add thonymg/skills --skill='*'
bunx skills add thonymg/skills --skill='*'

Or install all skills globally:

Skills

naming-convention — What it knows how to do

• Apply a 3-layer convention: Syntax (casing), Semantics (noun/verb roles), Grammar (closed prefix+suffix vocabulary)
• Propose compliant names and refactors in any language (JS/TS, Python, Java/Kotlin, SQL, routes/CSS…)
• Detect and fix common anti-patterns:
  • Contextual redundancy: user.getUserName() → user.getName()
  • Forbidden vague words: data, info, temp, x
  • Mixed responsibilities: processAndSaveOrder() → split into 2 actions
  • Infra suffix alone: Manager/Handler/Helper must be paired with an entity
• Provide ready-to-copy examples by domain and language-specific rules via reference files

How It Works

Each skill is a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter that tells the agent when and how to activate it. Skills can include reference files for deeper context.

Using a Skill

Skills are activated on-demand by the agent based on the description field. For example, naming-convention activates whenever you discuss naming, conventions, or code readability.

In practice, you can trigger it by asking things like:

• “Give me a name for a function that …”
• “Does this name follow the convention?”
• “Rename these variables/classes for consistency”
• “Which names should I use for these SQL columns?”

Adding a Skill

1. Create a directory under skills/<name>/
2. Add a SKILL.md with frontmatter (name, description, metadata)
3. Add references/ for detailed topic (optional)
4. Register the skill name in meta.ts under manual
