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 5.1 | $0.00044 | $0.01783 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00892 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00357 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00178 |
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 12d 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
92% identical to setup-matt-pocock-skills — 62 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 — 119 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- Is the
triageskill installed? (atriageskill folder alongside this one, ortriagein your available skills.) This decides whether Section B runs at all. - Monorepo signals — a
pnpm-workspace.yaml, aworkspacesfield inpackage.json, or a populatedpackages/*with its ownsrc/. Present only in a genuinely large multi-package repo; their absence means single-context, which is almost every repo.
2. Present findings and ask
Summarise what's present and what's missing. Then take the sections in order — one section, one answer, then the next.
Lead each section with the recommended answer so the user can accept it in a word. Give a one-line explainer only when the choice genuinely branches; skip the section entirely when exploration already settled it (Section B when triage isn't installed, Section C when there's no monorepo).
Prefix each live section header with a fixed emoji so the wizard stays scannable: 🗂️ Section A (tracker), 🏷️ Section B (labels), 📖 Section C (domain docs). When showing the draft in step 3, lead with 📝 Draft and close the confirm prompt with 👇.
What ships with it
6 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.

setup-matt-pocock-skills is a skill published in the GitHub repository tt-a1i/matt-skills-with-to-goal (160 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 1,783 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to setup-matt-pocock-skills, differing in 62 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
projectatlas
Use ProjectAtlas as the atlas-first orientation layer before broad source reads, with MCP-first task startup, short-alias worktree registration and routing, safe targeted initialization, ranked navigation, exact or federated graph evidence, purpose curation, health, lint, and repository-wide token reporting.
codex-coding-plugin
Build, review, or fix ProjectAtlas plugin/runtime installer integration for Codex, Claude Code, and OpenCode, especially version convergence, stale ProjectAtlas cache repair, MCP config generation, skill artifacts, host smoke tests, and fake-host tests for ProjectAtlas releases.
breaking-down-the-work
Splits scope into a product-first work breakdown that follows the 100% rule, keeps pieces from overlapping, uses outline numbers, and gives every piece a dictionary entry. Use when an epic, feature, or new subsystem needs a clean split into deliverables, or one source of truth before folders or work begin. Do not use…
staying-on-mission
Tests the current work against a written, lasting mission anchor and forces one choice, re-anchor, escalate, or stop. Use when an agent keeps finishing tasks but the work drifts from the goal, scope creeps, the same action repeats in a loop, or standards slip one small step at a time. Do not use for a tiny edit with…
closing-stale-packets
Brings an abandoned or half-filled change packet to an honest terminal state by completing it, closing it with a recorded rationale, or deleting it. Use when ng status flags a scaffold or invalid packet, a long session left a draft behind, or work was abandoned mid-packet. Do not use for an actively in-progress…
learning-from-experience
Turns incidents, near misses, bad handoffs, review surprises, escaped bugs, and signals from real use into lasting fixes to your safeguards. Use after something went wrong or nearly did and a future safeguard should change. Do not use during a live incident, which comes first, or to blame someone.
