## What skill-repo does, in the publisher's words

A Claude Code skill for standardizing Netresearch skill repository layout, distribution channels, packaging, and validation.

Netresearch maintains many agent skills; without a shared layout, packaging and CI drift across repositories. This skill defines one standard repo shape, reusable workflows, split licensing, and validation scripts so new and existing skills stay consistent and shippable via marketplace, Composer, npm, and releases.

It extends Anthropic-style single-file skills with repository-level conventions (not a replacement for Anthropic's skill-creator, see comparison below).

- Value categories: org/project-specific knowledge (Netresearch repo shape, split licensing, composer type ai-agent-skill) and executable scripts/validators (validate-skill.sh, checkpoints.yaml).
- Without the skill: the model invents a plausible generic repo layout: single LICENSE, no plugin.json, composer.json without the ai-agent-skill type: that fails validate-skill.sh and org CI.
- Eval evidence: validate_skill_repo_structure and readme_requirements in skills/skill-repo/evals/evals.json.

## Skills

- skill-repo: Use when creating skill repositories, standardizing or validating skill repo structure, setting up composer/release workflows, configuring split licensing (MIT + CC-BY-SA-4.0), fixing plugin.json / SKILL.md validation or version-parity errors, or releasing a skill version (version bump, tagging).

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.
