# Rootiest Skills Repository A collection of reusable AI skills (structured prompt protocols) for **Claude Code** and **Gemini CLI**. Each skill defines a precise execution protocol that guides the AI through complex, multi-step tasks — replacing ad-hoc prompting with consistent, auditable workflows. Skills are plain Markdown files. The included `install.sh` script handles discovery and installation in a single command. --- ## Table of Contents - [Skills](#skills) - [systematic-enumeration](#systematic-enumeration) - [git-publish-workflow](#git-publish-workflow) - [readme-sync-audit](#readme-sync-audit) - [Installation](#installation) - [Quick Install (curl)](#quick-install-curl) - [Flags & Options](#flags--options) - [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) - [Examples](#examples) - [Manual Install](#manual-install) - [License](#license) --- ## Skills ### `systematic-enumeration` **Purpose:** Eliminate counting and membership errors caused by the model's tendency toward holistic pattern recognition. When invoked, the AI is required to work through three explicit phases: 1. **Set Definition** — enumerate every member of the finite set before any analysis begins. 2. **Atomic Element Testing** — test each item individually, producing a `[Item] → [Logic] → [Boolean]` record for every element. For character-level checks, the string is split into individual characters to bypass tokenization bias. 3. **Reduction & Summation** — aggregate results and self-verify that the number of items tested exactly matches the set size; if there is a mismatch, Phase 2 restarts. **Use when:** counting characters in a string, verifying a property across a list of files or variables, or any membership test where a false negative carries real cost. --- ### `git-publish-workflow` **Purpose:** Automate the full lifecycle from uncommitted local work to an open Pull Request, with built-in quality gates. The workflow runs three phases: 1. **Scope Determination** — if staged changes exist, operate only on those; otherwise operate on all modified/untracked files. 2. **Safe-Commit Sequence** — generate a `kebab-case` branch name, compose a [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) message, then run the project's primary test/lint/build command. If verification fails, the sequence stops — nothing is pushed. 3. **Remote Integration** — push the branch, open a PR against the default branch, and populate the description with a "Why/What" summary and a manual verification checklist (`- [ ]` items). **Use when:** you say "Ship this," "Make a PR," or invoke `/git-publish-workflow`. --- ### `readme-sync-audit` **Purpose:** Keep `README.md` accurate by programmatically aligning it with the current state of the codebase. Three-phase execution: 1. **Delta Analysis** — locate the last commit that touched `README.md`, diff all code changes from that point to `HEAD`, and extract undocumented environment variables, CLI flags, or API changes. 2. **Pruning & Update Audit** — remove stale setup steps or "Coming Soon" notes, correct version numbers and file paths, and synthesize documentation for newly discovered features. 3. **Structural Integrity Check** — verify that Quick Start commands still work, all config keys are listed, and code snippets match the current API. **Use when:** you say "Update the docs," "Sync the README," or invoke `/readme-sync-audit`. --- ## Installation ### Quick Install (curl) The intended usage is a single `curl | bash` command. The installer fetches and runs `install.sh` directly — no clone required. > [!TIP] > The short-url `https://url.rootiest.dev/skills` can be substituted for the full URL in the examples below. > e.g. `curl -sL https://url.rootiest.dev/skills | bash -s -- --all` **Install all skills for both Claude Code and Gemini CLI:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --all ``` **Install all skills for Claude Code only:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --all --claude ``` **Install all skills for Gemini CLI only:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --all --gemini ``` **Install a single skill for both tools:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- systematic-enumeration ``` **Install specific skills for Claude Code only:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --claude git-publish-workflow readme-sync-audit ``` **Install specific skills for Gemini CLI only:** ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --gemini systematic-enumeration git-publish-workflow ``` > **Note:** Providing explicit skill names alongside `--all` causes the named skills to take precedence — only those skills are installed. --- ### Flags & Options | Flag | Description | |---|---| | `-c`, `--claude` | Install into Claude Code (`~/.claude/skills/`) | | `-g`, `--gemini` | Install into Gemini CLI (`~/.gemini/skills/`) | | `-a`, `--all` | Install every skill available in the repository | | `SKILL...` | Install one or more named skills (positional arguments) | | `-h`, `--help` | Show the help page | **Tool targeting:** if neither `--claude` nor `--gemini` is specified, the installer targets **both** tools by default. **Skill selection precedence:** explicit skill names always override `--all`. Passing `--all skill-name` installs only `skill-name`, not every skill. **Dependencies:** `curl` and `git` must be present on `PATH`. The installer checks for both and exits with a clear error if either is missing. --- ### Environment Variables | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `CLAUDE_SKILLS_DIR` | `~/.claude/skills` | Override the Claude Code install directory | | `GEMINI_SKILLS_DIR` | `~/.gemini/skills` | Override the Gemini CLI install directory | Example — installing to a project-local skills directory: ```bash curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh \ | CLAUDE_SKILLS_DIR=./.claude/skills bash -s -- --claude systematic-enumeration ``` --- ### Examples ```bash # Install everything, both tools (simplest possible invocation) curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --all # Install one skill, Claude only curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --claude git-publish-workflow # Install two skills, Gemini only curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash -s -- --gemini systematic-enumeration readme-sync-audit # Override install directory, Claude only curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh \ | CLAUDE_SKILLS_DIR=~/my-skills bash -s -- --claude --all ``` --- ### Manual Install If you prefer to inspect the script before running it: ```bash # Download curl -sL https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills/raw/branch/main/install.sh -o install.sh # Review less install.sh # Run bash install.sh --all ``` Or clone the repository and run locally: ```bash git clone https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/ai-skills.git cd claude-skills bash install.sh --all ``` --- ## License This project is licensed under the **GNU General Public License v3.0 or later (GPL-3.0-or-later)**.
