SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Engineering skills like triage, to-tickets, and to-spec need to know where a repo's issues live, which label vocabulary to apply, and where domain documentation resides. This Skill scaffolds that per-repo configuration once, so every other engineering skill reads from consistent, documented conventions instead of guessing. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Issue Tracker Setup: Detects the repo's remote and records whether issues live in GitHub (gh CLI), GitLab (glab CLI), local markdown under .scratch/, or a custom workflow, writing the choice to docs/agents/issue-tracker.md. - Triage Label Vocabulary: Maps the five canonical triage roles (needs-triage, needs-info, ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, wontfix) to the repo's actual label strings, only when the triage skill is installed. - Domain Doc Layout: Configures single-context (CONTEXT.md + docs/adr/) or multi-context (CONTEXT-MAP.md with per-context docs) layouts based on detected monorepo signals. - Use Case: After installing the engineering skills into a GitHub repo, run this setup once to generate an Agent skills block in CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md plus docs/agents/*.md files, so subsequent triage and ticket workflows use the correct gh commands and labels. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run the setup-matt-pocock-skills setup to configure this repository's issue tracker, triage labels, and domain docs for the engineering skills.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure a repo for Matt Pocock's engineering skills?▼

Run the setup skill once before using the other engineering skills. It explores your repo, asks about your issue tracker, triage labels, and domain docs, then writes docs/agents/*.md files and an Agent skills block in CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md.

Which issue trackers does the setup skill support?▼

It supports GitHub Issues via the gh CLI, GitLab Issues via the glab CLI, and local markdown files under .scratch/<feature>/. Other trackers like Jira or Linear can be recorded as freeform prose describing your workflow.

Does the setup skill work with GitLab repositories?▼

Yes. If git remote points at GitLab, the skill proposes GitLab and writes docs/agents/issue-tracker.md from the GitLab seed template, covering glab issue commands, merge request triage, and wayfinding operations.

What triage labels does the setup configure?▼

It configures five canonical roles: needs-triage, needs-info, ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, and wontfix. You can keep the defaults or map them to your tracker's existing label strings, recorded in docs/agents/triage-labels.md.

When should I re-run the repo setup skill?▼

Re-running is only necessary if you want to switch issue trackers or restart the configuration from scratch. For smaller changes, edit the docs/agents/*.md files directly since the skills read them at runtime.

Does the setup skill handle monorepos?▼

Yes. It detects monorepo signals like pnpm-workspace.yaml or a workspaces field in package.json, then offers a multi-context layout with a root CONTEXT-MAP.md pointing to per-context CONTEXT.md files and scoped ADR directories.
