Skills for AI assistants

A skill is a short instruction file that tells an AI assistant how a kind of work is done here. These skills are for building stardelt. To use a stardelt platform from an assistant, see Python, command line and agents instead.

They live in skills/ in this repository. Each is plain Markdown, so any assistant or any person can read it.

SkillUse it to
change-apiChange a Nova API route and carry it through the contract, the Python package and the docs
change-resourceChange a resource and regenerate everything that depends on it
add-serviceAdd or upgrade a service across all install paths
write-docs-pageWrite a page that follows this site's rules
check-docs-factsCheck a page's claims against the code and a running install
write-issueWrite an issue that someone with no context can implement
write-skillAdd a new skill to this list

Use them​

Check out the repositories side by side, then:

  • Claude Code finds them from a stardelt-docs checkout through .claude/skills. From another repository, link them: ln -s ../../stardelt-docs/skills .claude/skills (keep the link out of commits).
  • Other assistants that read AGENTS.md are pointed to skills/ by the file in this repository's root. You can also paste a skill into the conversation.

Skills do not replace your judgment: you stay the author of what you submit.
