Package manager for AI-agent config. grim installs, updates, and publishes skills, rules, agents, MCP servers, and bundles into Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Zed, Amp, Kiro, Junie, and opencode — pinned by digest in a lockfile. Storage is any OCI registry; there is no service to run.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when a bug is reported, something is broken, an error or crash needs fixing, a wrong output appears, or a regression shows up — guides Grimoire's Reproduce → Root-Cause → failing-test-FIRST → Fix → Verify discipline and will not let the fix begin until a failing regression test is recorded. Use also when the user…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when writing code, fixing a bug, implementing a feature, or improving code structure. Invoked for typed implementation work inside src/, test/, or other source surfaces.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use for code review, quality audits, SOLID/DRY consistency checks, pattern audits across the codebase, or verifying anti-pattern compliance across a scope.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when the user says "commit", "/commit", "save progress", or asks to land working changes on a feature or worktree branch. Grimoire working-phase posture — minimises commit count, can amend rolling Checkpoints, offers a one-time PR prompt. For pre-merge cleanup, use /finalize.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when authoring or editing Grimoire documentation — user guide, reference pages, doc pages under docs/, or doc narrative structure.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when the user says "finalize", "/finalize", "prepare this branch for main", "clean up history", "squash the branch", or landing a branch on main. Rewrites Checkpoint working-phase commits into clean Conventional Commits before fast-forward merge. Flags: --squash-all, --dry-run.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when creating or editing skills, rules, agents, or hooks under .claude/. Also when AI knowledge has drifted from project patterns, a new Claude Code feature lands, or syncing artifacts to current state. Modes: create, audit, refresh, review, research .
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when auditing the freshness of .claude/rules/subsystem-.md files against current codebase state, or when a subsystem has undergone significant change.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when user asks "what's next" or "next step". Prints next slash command from current state via a sonnet subagent. Flags: --clear, --list.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use when designing test suites, writing acceptance tests, validating an implementation against a spec, or planning test coverage before implementation. Trigger: /qa-engineer.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Use for security audits, threat modelling, vulnerability assessment, or evaluating the attack surface of a new capability before merge. Trigger: /security-auditor.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Craft effective AI agent configuration — skills, rules, agents, and instructions — for any AI coding client. Use when writing or reviewing a SKILL.md, rule file, or agent definition; when deciding between a skill, rule, hook, or always-on instruction; when a config file grows past its context budget; or when a skill…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Author, validate, and package grim-publishable artifacts — skill directories, rule files, agent definitions, MCP server descriptors, and bundle TOMLs. Use when creating or editing an artifact for grim build or grim release; when choosing frontmatter or catalog metadata fields; when adding a vendor-namespaced metadata…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Drive the grim CLI — the OCI package manager for AI skills, rules, agents, and bundles. Use when installing, updating, searching, rating, or publishing AI-config artifacts with grim; when composing grim init, config, add, lock, install, update, status, context, fetch, describe, search, rate, tui, mcp, build, release…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Sketch a module layout and pick design patterns for a new feature. Use when asked to plan an architecture, choose between approaches, or document a design decision before implementation. The walkthrough starts from the feature's user-visible behaviour and works inward, mapping each responsibility onto a module with a…
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Review a diff for SOLID/DRY violations, missing tests, and risky changes. Use when asked to review a pull request, audit a patch, or check code quality before merge.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Draft a Conventional Commit message from staged changes. Use when the user asks to commit, save progress, or write a commit message.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
A release-cutting playbook — version bump, changelog, tag, publish checklist. Published ALONE under a deep nested repo path (playbooks/ci/release/) so the TUI tree folds the single-child chain into one node.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
A minimal smoke-test skill. Use to verify a grimoire install/transform round-trip end to end with the smallest possible artifact.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
A retired diff reviewer kept only to exercise grim's deprecation surface end to end. Use code-reviewer instead.
Skill Claude CodeCodex
Route a question to the team that owns an artifact. Use when a published skill misbehaves and you need the maintainer, the issue tracker, or the security contact rather than a code change.
