System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables teams to detect degradations and complexity increases when a skill's Markdown instructions change, by diffing the HEAD version against the working tree and tracing reachable files from SKILL.md.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Asymmetric degradation checks: only regressions count, additions and clarifications are neutral.
  • Reachable-file diffing: follows links from SKILL.md to build the comparison surface.
  • Automated reporting: writes a structured report under docs/reviews/diff-skill/ and provides an inline summary for quick review.
  • Supports multi-ref comparisons (default HEAD → WORKTREE) and easy invocation for other refs.

Quick Start

Run the diff-skill tool to compare a skill's SKILL.md between two git refs and generate an annotated report.
