mattpocock/skills ("Skills For Real Engineers") is a collection of agent skills for agentic software engineering. The skills provide a suggested workflow but are explicitly designed to be small, easy to adapt, and composable. We’ve found them valuable for helping teams apply sound software engineering practices to agentic coding, as well as for AI-assisted analysis of requirements and assumptions, such as grilling. While we caution against adopting entire skill libraries without evaluating them (agent skill cognitive surrender), these lightweight skills are worth a look if you want more structure in your agentic software development workflows.
