Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00044 | $0.01794 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00897 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00359 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00179 |
Grade A, and why
setup-matt-pocock-skills scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
This is a copy
100% identical to setup-matt-pocock-skills — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Setup Matt Pocock's Skills
Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the engineering skills assume:
- Issue tracker — where issues live (GitHub by default; local markdown is also supported out of the box)
- Triage labels — the strings used for the five canonical triage roles
- Domain docs — where
CONTEXT.mdand ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them
This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script. Explore, present what you found, confirm with the user, then write.
Process
1. Explore
Look at the current repo to understand its starting state. Read whatever exists; don't assume:
git remote -vand.git/config— is this a GitHub repo? Which one?AGENTS.mdandCLAUDE.mdat the repo root — does either exist? Is there already an## Agent skillssection in either?CONTEXT.mdandCONTEXT-MAP.mdat the repo rootdocs/adr/and anysrc/*/docs/adr/directoriesdocs/agents/— does this skill's prior output already exist?.scratch/— sign that a local-markdown issue tracker convention is already in use
2. Present findings and ask
Summarise what's present and what's missing. Then walk the user through the three decisions one at a time — present a section, get the user's answer, then move to the next. Don't dump all three at once.
Assume the user does not know what these terms mean. Each section starts with a short explainer (what it is, why these skills need it, what changes if they pick differently). Then show the choices and the default.
Section A — Issue tracker.
Explainer: The "issue tracker" is where issues live for this repo. Skills like
to-issues,triage,to-prd, andqaread from and write to it — they need to know whether to callgh issue create, write a markdown file under.scratch/, or follow some other workflow you describe. Pick the place you actually track work for this repo.
Default posture: these skills were designed for GitHub. If a git remote points at GitHub, propose that. If a git remote points at GitLab (gitlab.com or a self-hosted host), propose GitLab. Otherwise (or if the user prefers), offer:
What ships with it
5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

bernstein-agents
Manage Bernstein agents - list active agents, inspect their output, kill stalled agents, or stream live logs. Use when the user asks about agents, wants to see what an agent is doing, or needs to kill one.
bernstein-approve
Review and approve/reject pending tasks or plans in Bernstein. Use when the user asks about approvals, wants to review agent work, or needs to approve/reject a plan before execution begins.
bernstein-create-task
Create a new task in the Bernstein orchestrator. Use when the user wants to add a task, delegate work to an agent, file a bug fix, or queue up work for the orchestrator to handle.
vp
Cross-cell coordination - resolve conflicts, decide pivots.
instar-project
Register, inspect, and drive multi-spec projects via the instar /projects API. Twelve subcommands cover the full Phase 1 surface — create / status / next / advance / drift / run-round / halt / ack / resume / abandon / accept-partial / claim-ownership.
