Makes the skill/knowledge system legible to a public visitor and self-propagating: - knowledge/notes/skill-vs-note-vs-code.md: the decision rule for what becomes a skill vs. a knowledge note vs. tested code, with boundary cases and rejected alternatives. - .claude/skills/write-skill/SKILL.md: a meta-skill that scaffolds new skills in the house style (frontmatter + Steps + Do not), then registers and logs them. - knowledge/notes/case-study-github-project-tracking.md: a worked, real example of the github-* skills end to end — the run they were generalized from. - README.md: a Skills index table + links to the taxonomy note and case study. - CLAUDE.md / LOG.md: register write-skill and log the change.

knowledge/notes/skill-vs-note-vs-code.md— the decision rule for what becomes a skill vs. a knowledge note vs. tested code, with boundary cases and the alternatives that were rejected. The meta-decision behind how this repo is organized..claude/skills/write-skill/SKILL.md— a meta-skill that scaffolds new skills in the house style (frontmatter +## Steps+## Do not), then registers and logs them. Tools that build tools — the repo grows its own skills.knowledge/notes/case-study-github-project-tracking.md— a real, end-to-end run of thegithub-*skills (the one they were generalized from): scope split, the 404-means-wrong-account lesson, eventual-consistency verification.Changed
README.md— a## Skillsindex table linking every skill, plus pointers to the taxonomy note and case study.CLAUDE.md/LOG.md— registerwrite-skilland log the change.Together with #1, this turns "here are some skills" into a legible, self-documenting system — which is the part worth showing publicly.
