brooks-lint — New Skill Scaffold
Skill name comes from $ARGUMENTS (kebab-case, e.g. brooks-security). If empty, ask for the name and a one-line purpose first.
Follow the repo's "Adding a New Skill" checklist exactly:
- Create
skills/{name}/SKILL.mdwith frontmatter —name, adescription
that ends with a Do NOT trigger for: clause (validate-enforced for shipped skills; omitting it causes false triggering), and a Process section of 3–6 bullets that cite the guide's step ranges inline (e.g. Scan risks (Steps 1–6 of the guide)). Mirror the structure of an existing skill such as skills/brooks-review/SKILL.md (Setup → Process → Mode line).
- Create
skills/{name}/{name}-guide.mdwith sequentially numbered steps —
no gaps, no duplicates. Sub-steps like Step 2a are allowed. The guide owns the detailed steps; the SKILL.md Process is just an orientation skeleton.
- Wire the framework. The new SKILL.md Setup section must Read the relevant
shared/ files (common.md for Iron Law + Report Template, plus decay-risks.md / test-decay-risks.md as applicable) — shared/ is NOT auto-loaded.
- Add eval coverage to
evals/evals.json: append with the next sequential
id at least one happy-path scenario (with the relevant risk code in expectedoutput) and at least one false-positive scenario flagged noriskcodes: true. Each scenario needs id, name, prompt, expectedoutput, mode, files.
- Validate.
npm run validate(structure + step continuity + Process-section
presence) and npm run evals (eval schema). Fix until both pass.
- Local-test.
cp -r skills/* ~/.claude/skills/brooks-lint/(if you've
symlinked ~/.claude/skills/brooks-lint to the repo, skip this — edits are already live), trigger the new skill in a Claude session, verify the Iron Law output, then restore the marketplace copy: /plugin marketplace update → /plugin install brooks-lint@brooks-lint-marketplace.
Do NOT register a slash command by hand — short forms are auto-installed by the session-start hook. Report the files created and the validate/evals results.
