AI Coding Agent Skills for Real Engineers

This is a curated, open-source library of reusable "skills" — structured markdown files (organized under `skills/`, with `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, and `CONTEXT.md` conventions) that encode task-specific instructions for coding agents like Claude Code and Copilot. Instead of hand-tuning prompts per repo, you can drop in vetted skill definitions to make agents follow consistent engineering practices, which is worth mirroring in your own agent tooling to standardize behavior across teams rather than reinventing prompt scaffolding.
GitHub Copilot now ships a direct "issue-to-merge" agent that can autonomously plan, code, test, and submit PRs without human handoffs. This cuts the manual review loop for routine tickets but forces you to re-architect CI gates and security scans to run continuously instead of at merge time, or you’ll ship unvetted code.
