## What skillforcer does, in the publisher's words

Hook based skill loading tracking and enforcement, in Claude Code and OpenAI Codex CLI.

Coding agents tend to not load the skills they need before writing either due to context rot or just because of usual LLM randomness.

In addition to that skill's guidance only applies correctly while it is recent enough. Over a long session that body drifts out (context rot) and writes the skill governs (comment style, doc conventions, anything a rule can match) quietly stop following it.

## Skills

- skillforcer-config: Use when configuring skillforcer: writing or editing.skillforcer.toml rules, choosing freshness windows (session/minutes/turns/tokens), using presets, or installing/uninstalling its hooks (Claude Code and Codex CLI).

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