AI & ML
AI & ML agent skills cover the machine-learning workflow itself: writing and evaluating prompts, building RAG pipelines, running evals, and wiring up model APIs. Each one is a SKILL.md file your agent loads on demand, so the know-how travels across Claude Code, Cursor, and 60+ agents.

shawn-sandy Bundle Optimizing Agent ContextOptimizes what a project loads into every coding-agent session. Counts which skills, plugins, slash commands, and subagents past sessions actually invoked, prunes the rest from the load set, then tightens CLAUDE.md against the same data by deleting dead references, replacing ignored always-do rules with hooks, and pinning the skills that carry the dev cycle in a short table. Use when the user asks to optimize their agent setup or project context, prune unused skills or plugins, audit skill usage, or slim down CLAUDE.md.

cgbarlow Bundle Doview Image RetrieverRetrieve and faithfully reproduce DoView Planning handbook diagrams to accompany an outcomes-theory answer. Use after a doview-outcomes-answer response when the user asks to see the diagrams, requests the visual model, says "show me the picture/diagram/figure", or whenever an outcomes-theory answer would land better with the original tool diagrams visible. Reproduces Mermaid blocks from the local Markdown edition first (https://github.com/cgbarlow/doview-book), and falls back to the upstream PNG/image-file URLs from doviewplanning.org when a chapter's diagram does not translate cleanly to Mermaid. Faithful — never redraws, simplifies, paraphrases, or substitutes images or Mermaid blocks. Pair with doview-outcomes-answer, which sets up the seed list this skill consumes.
-
cgbarlow Bundle Doview Outcomes AnswerAnswer outcomes-theory questions strictly from Dr Paul Duignan's DoView Planning and Outcomes Theory Handbook (2025). Use whenever the user asks for an outcomes-theory perspective, requests a DoView analysis, asks "what does outcomes theory say about…", asks to analyse a strategy/proposal/plan/policy/programme/business-case/M&E plan/contract through an outcomes lens, mentions outcomes theory or outcomes systems or DoView Boards or strategy-outcomes diagrams or theory-of-change, shares a document and wants it critiqued for clarity of outcomes, or wants a formal standalone response with the Summary + Full structure and raw-visible copy-safe URLs that the handbook's Prompt A v1.1.9 demands. Strictly avoids first-person and drafting-advice language; uses outcomes theory as the primary frame and DoView as its applied form. Pair with `doview-image-retriever` to retrieve the original diagrams (Mermaid from this repo or PNG from doviewplanning.org).

alexander-danilenko Bundle Simple EnglishWrite or audit technical text against ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English so a tired, non-native reader understands it on the first pass: 20-word procedural and 25-word descriptive sentence limits, imperative steps, condition before command, one word for one meaning, and only the approved modals can/will/must. Use for READMEs, runbooks, procedures, error messages, release notes, incident reports, API guides, UI copy, and agent instructions. Trigger on: "STE", "Simplified Technical English", "ASD-STE100", "controlled language", "plain English", "make this clearer", "write for non-native readers", "prep this for translation", "cut the fluff", or any request to check text for compliance. Prefer this over general copy-editing whenever the text instructs, documents, or warns.
