claude-code-best-practice: Command for Claude Code

Workflow — Skill Collections

Update the SKILL COLLECTIONS table in README.md by researching 5 repos in parallel. Launch a research agent, merge results, present changes, update table if approved.

The 5 Repos

#	Repo	Owner
1	anthropics/skills	Anthropic (official)
2	wshobson/agents	William Shobson
3	mattpocock/skills	Matt Pocock
4	K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills	K-Dense-AI
5	VoltAgent/awesome-agent-skills	VoltAgent (curated awesome-list)

Table Format

The README table has these columns:

| Name | ★ | <img src="!/tags/s.svg" height="14"> |

• Name: [Short Name](github-url) — use repo's short name (e.g., mattpocock/skills, or just skills if owner is the project), not the full owner/repo unless ambiguous
• ★: Star count rounded to k (e.g., 125k, 35k, 1.2k). Under 1000 show exact number
• Skill count: Just the number. For awesome-lists where skills are links not files, use N+ (curated list) form

Sort order: Sorted by stars descending (highest first).

Phase 0: Read Current State

Read these files:

1. README.md — the ## 🧰 SKILL COLLECTIONS table (note current stars and skill counts)
2. changelog/skill-collections/changelog.md — previous changelog entries (may not exist yet)

---

Phase 1: Launch Research Agent

Immediately spawn one development-workflows-research-agent covering all 5 repos. (The existing research agent is generic — it counts skills/stars/etc. for any repo.)

Research these 5 Claude Code skill-collection repositories. Each is primarily a library of SKILL.md files, NOT a full workflow methodology.

Repo 1: anthropics/skills (https://github.com/anthropics/skills) — official Anthropic skills repo Repo 2: wshobson/agents (https://github.com/wshobson/agents) — plugin-scoped skills (skills nested under domain plugins) Repo 3: mattpocock/skills (https://github.com/mattpocock/skills) — TypeScript-focused Repo 4: K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills (https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills) — science/research vertical Repo 5: VoltAgent/awesome-agent-skills (https://github.com/VoltAgent/awesome-agent-skills) — curated awesome-list (links to external skills, not SKILL.md files in repo)

For EACH repo, return:

1. Stars — use GitHub API https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}, read stargazers_count. Round to k.
2. Skill count — count SKILL.md files in the repo via the GitHub git tree API: https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/git/trees/HEAD?recursive=1 and grep paths for SKILL.md.
   • For wshobson/agents: skills are nested inside plugins/<domain>/skills/ — count all SKILL.md across all plugins.
   • For VoltAgent/awesome-agent-skills: count the listed skills in README.md (e.g., bullets / table rows). Mark explicitly as "curated list, not files".
   • For K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills: subdirectories under skills/ may use SKILL.md or .md; count whichever the repo uses, and report which.
   • For anthropics/skills: skills live in subdirectories under skills/ with SKILL.md inside.
   • For mattpocock/skills: include only active skills, not deprecated ones (note both numbers if obvious).
3. Notable changes — any significant additions or removals in last 30 days?

Return structured report per repo:

REPO: anthropics/skills
STARS: <number>k (<exact>)
SKILLS: <count> (<file pattern used, e.g., "SKILL.md files via git tree">)
NOTES: <anything unusual — flat .md vs SKILL.md, deprecated skills, language variants, curated-list disclaimer>
CHANGES: <changes or "No significant changes">
CONFIDENCE: <0-1>
