Every loaded SKILL.md and every listed description is paid on every turn of every session, and every delivered message costs its recipient a full turn. scripts/budget.py gains SKILL_WORDS = 600, enforced by test_lock, and test_naming forbids a skill naming its own slash command; 53 descriptions and 10 body lines drop it. The 18 longest skills move details into 31 side files read only in their situation (organize's capacity, succession, peers, offices, relay and lineage; cleanup's docker, worktrees, execute and ask; code-tune, changelog, triage, dream, split and others), so all SKILL.md files shrink from 33866 to 26291 words without dropping a rule; an independent review of HEAD against the new text found no loss in 60 of 64 skills and three weakenings, now restored (WSJF re-estimates after an objective change, cleanup's volume checklist, essence's absolute dates).
The kvb-org-organize Peer protocol sends status that asks nothing to the news board, answers nothing that asks nothing, keeps messages terse, and lets light runs admit themselves in the operator's wording; the skills follow it (operator reads the register, relax and wakeup reply through the news, evening collects them there, wsjf asks only for missing estimates, cleanup and triage batch their questions). Skills that explore code ask the codebase-memory-mcp graph first, subagent briefs scale with the stakes and cap their answers, and the skills that need the full register or council tables call show --wide or list --long.

scripts/budget.py holds the listing limits (1500 words in total, 40 per skill) and the one way to count a description, prints the total and the longest descriptions, reads the staged versions with --index, and exits 1 over budget. make budget [INDEX=1] runs it; test_lock.py takes its limits and counting from the script instead of its own copy. It replaces the one-liner that was run by hand a dozen times on 2026-11-03.

Every new skill had to trim the trigger phrases of others to stay under 1300 words; the operator raised the total to 1500. The per-skill limit of 40 words stays.

- add ponytail skill set to skills-lock.json (14 locked skills total)
- add first-party medusa skill under skills/, layered on install
- make test now runs ruff, shellcheck, and markdownlint-cli2
- CI installs the lint tools before make test in both workflows
- MIT license, funding buttons, thanks and donation sections in README
- .markdownlint-cli2.jsonc config; ignore lint caches in .gitignore
- skills-lock.json pins every skill (extracted from infinito-nexus-core)
- make install (global to $HOME) and make project TARGET=<repo> copy the
rendered skills into .agents/skills + .claude/skills
- make update refreshes the lock via npx skills; make test validates the
lock shape and shellchecks the scripts
- CI: test workflow on push/PR, daily update workflow opening a PR
- MIRRORS for code.infinito.nexus and git.veen.world
