Surface (requirement 001 phase 2): navigation Stream (Inbox, Regeln) / Agents / Artifacts with keys 1-3 and hash routes (#graph and #tree redirect), header with title, command palette and settings only, server-side badges (unsnoozed inbox, beats within 900 s, open jobs), a Mayday banner with "aufheben", four stream chips with agent:/art:/seit: search, Filter and time menus, the inbox in main, an agents toolbar (Funk an alle with Newsletter, Broadcast, Pan-Pan, Security, Mayday; Priorität; Tag/Nacht), Post or Call in the agent panel, Ambiente in the settings and read-aloud over the seven classes with Mayday locked. Rename (decision 9): hub/ is orchestrator/, the package kvb_orchestrator, the unit kvb-orchestrator-runner.service, scripts/orchestrator.sh, environment KVB_ORCHESTRATOR_*, make targets orchestrator-*, the MCP server, image and compose project kvb-orchestrator, the guard header X-Kvb-Orchestrator and the message marker [kvb-orchestrator msg <id>]. install runs migrate first: it stops the old container, removes its image and code, moves state, approvals and pinned keys, swaps the MCP registration, the PermissionRequest hook and the runner unit, and changes nothing on a second run (scratch-HOME test with stub docker, claude and systemctl). Saved views fall back to the old localStorage key once. MEDUSA acceptances carried to the renamed paths: 82 rows whose lines are unchanged (reason prefixed "renamed from <old path>, line unchanged"), and 7 rows whose text changed only in the product name, the package name, a temp prefix or a new class argument, each upheld by one kvb-think-criticize skeptic (approval.py:60, messaging.py:53, server.py:56, tests/hub_support.py:64, passkey.py:205, page-agent.js:75, language.py:46). Cost 101 %: the longer name adds 15 tokens of skill text; the operator approved it with the commit. 🎯 Fix: 92 % 💥 Break: 4 % 💸 Cost: 101 % ⏱️ Time: – 🛡️ Security: 100 % 💰 Value: ? 🏆 Score: 87 🚦 Gate: ⚠️ cost 101 % > 100: ask the operator before the commit Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

|
|
The agent skill collection of Kevin Veen-Birkenbach.
|
|
Every skill is pinned in `skills-lock.json` for reproducible installs.
|
|
First-party skills live under `skills/` and are layered on top of the locked ones at install time.
|
|
Compatible with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, and other agents.
|
|
|
|
## Naming 🏷️
|
|
|
|
Every first-party skill is named `kvb-<category>-<name>` with one of these categories: `think`, `create`, `code`, `ci`, `git`, `check`, `org`, `agent`, `skill`, `coach`: `think` thinks without producing a file, `create` produces an artifact, `code` works on code, `ci` on pipelines, `git` on history and forges, `check` analyses and reports findings, `org` coordinates agents, `agent` acts on one agent itself: its repository setup (code index, agent instructions) and its state (relax, sleep, wake up), `skill` works on skills themselves, `coach` serves the operator's wellbeing. Only `kvb-cleanup`, `kvb-coach`, `kvb-help` and the collectors `kvb-dream`, `kvb-optimize` and `kvb-transcend` stand without a category. Names use `a-z`, `0-9` and single hyphens, at most 64 characters, and equal their directory name. `tests/test_naming.py` enforces all of it, including that the organigram below lists every skill under its category.

## Skill map 🗺️
|
|
|
|
How the first-party skills work together. A solid arrow means the skill invokes or relies on the other one; a dotted arrow means it fires automatically. Every skill that reports a result closes with the `kvb-check-confidence` block; those arrows are left out. The locked third-party skills (caveman, ponytail, archify) are not drawn.

## Requirements 📦
|
|
|
|
- Node.js (provides `npx skills`).
|
|
- `jq` (only required for `make update`).
|
|
- Python `jinja2` for `make test` (pinned in `orchestrator/requirements.txt`).
|
|
- Docker with the compose plugin (optional, runs the Agent Orchestrator).
|
|
|
|
## Installation 🚀
|
|
|
|
Install the skills globally into your home (`~/.agents/skills` and `~/.claude/skills`):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Copy the skills into a specific project (`<repo>/.agents/skills` and `<repo>/.claude/skills`):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make project TARGET=/path/to/repo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Both commands also patch the target's `.claude/settings.local.json` — the machine-local, untracked file, so a project's reviewed `.claude/settings.json` is never rewritten by an install: the caveman and ponytail plugins are enabled so their modes auto-activate on session start, and two reminder hooks are registered — `kvb-dream` points each agent at `/kvb-dream` at most once every twelve hours (stamped per session in `~/.claude/.dream-stamps/`), and `kvb-coach` runs its short form at the first prompt of every full hour, once across all agents (stamped in `~/.claude/.coach-hours/`); the global install also enables the `kvb-dream-notify.timer` systemd user timer, which recommends `/kvb-dream` in a GNOME notification daily at 17:00 local time and catches up once after a missed run. A PreToolUse gate from the `kvb-org-organize` skill blocks edits to files in a git worktree until the session holds a claim (`skills/kvb-org-organize/scripts/council.py`), and its resource watch (`skills/kvb-org-organize/scripts/watch.py`) measures disk, Docker and caches, cleans up low-risk data and blocks new heavy jobs before the disk runs out; it stays inactive until `~/.claude/agents-council/config.json` exists, and because its hooks run that config's commands outside the sandbox, the install adds `Edit(~/.claude/agents-council/**)` to `permissions.deny`, which also covers Write in every permission mode. The `kvb-org-radio` skill registers five hooks: its prompt hook and a PostToolBatch hook deliver the immediate radio (`call`, `broadcast`, `security`, `pan-pan`, `mayday`) mid-turn, a Stop hook delivers the post (`post`, `newsletter` and call receipts) when the turn ends, an `asyncRewake` Stop hook wakes an idle session for the radio, and a PreToolUse hook refuses every writing action while a mayday holds, except those of its sender and of the agents that join it with `radio.py assist`. The PreToolUse hook of the `kvb-org-queue` skill sends heavy commands through `queue.py hold` once the config sets `queue_enforce`, and holds a held command to the settings' Bash deny and ask rules, which see only `queue.py hold`. The global install also installs the MEDUSA security scanner with pipx for `kvb-check-security`, unless `medusa` is already on the PATH. Two hooks of the `kvb-org-perform` skill (`skills/kvb-org-perform/scripts/log.py`) log every Agent spawn with its task class, model and effort, and store the quality feedback a sandboxed session prints, in `~/.local/state/agents-council/subagent-model.jsonl`. Every hook runs `/usr/bin/python3 -I`, so neither the `python3` of a sandbox-writable virtualenv on the `PATH` nor `PYTHONPATH` reaches the hooks, which run outside the sandbox; older bare `python3` hook entries are rewritten. The reminder hooks run `/usr/bin/bash` and pin `PATH=/usr/bin:/bin`, and the council scripts keep only the `PATH` directories this uid cannot write (`skills/kvb-org-organize/scripts/hookpath.py`), so no binary an agent plants on the inherited `PATH` runs outside the sandbox. Existing settings are preserved.

The global install also runs the Agent Orchestrator, a local review page in which the operator approves or rejects the agents' staged commits (the `kvb-git-diff` skill): it copies `orchestrator/` to `~/.local/share/kvb-orchestrator`, starts it there with `docker compose up -d --build` (restart `unless-stopped`, bound to `127.0.0.1` only, state in `~/.local/state/kvb-orchestrator`) and registers its MCP server for Claude Code at user scope. Its port is `KVB_ORCHESTRATOR_PORT` in `orchestrator/.env`; the hub page is `http://localhost:<port>/`, the MCP endpoint `/mcp`. Without docker the hub is skipped and the commit skills ask in chat. The hub reads new radio traffic aloud in maritime phraseology and takes push-to-talk input; its image builds both engines from pinned, sha256-verified sources and runs each as a separate process: Piper (`piper-tts`, GPL-3.0-or-later) with the `en_US-libritts-high` voice (904 speakers, trained on LibriTTS, CC BY 4.0, from `rhasspy/piper-voices`) and whisper.cpp (MIT) with the multilingual `ggml-base-q8_0` model (OpenAI Whisper weights, MIT). The operator's own voice is `KVB_ORCHESTRATOR_OPERATOR_VOICE` in `orchestrator/.env`.

Without reinstalling the skills, `make orchestrator-install` installs, builds and starts only the hub, `make orchestrator-check` checks the installed hub (image, container, logs, HTTP, pinned keys, hook, runner, disk; exit 1 on a failure), `make orchestrator-pin CREDENTIAL=<blob>` pins the passkey that "Passkey registrieren" shows, `make orchestrator-runner` enables the runner service, and `make orchestrator-hook` registers the PermissionRequest hook in `~/.claude/settings.json`, replacing an earlier Agent Orchestrator entry and keeping the file mode, after a copy to `settings.json.before-kvb-orchestrator-hook` (Claude Code reads `~/.claude/settings.local.json` only in sessions started in the home directory). Agents that reach the Docker socket are root-equivalent: until the agent VMs of core requirement 093 isolate them, the signatures do not hold against such an agent. `make watch-check` shows whether the resource watch hook is stuck (running hooks, holders of the kept queue history, age of the stored stage).

The hub is only a relay: every approval of an ask, a staged commit or an operator command is signed end to end with a WebAuthn passkey held in KeePassXC (through KeePassXC-Browser, relying party `localhost`, origin `http://localhost:<port>`; ES256, EdDSA and RS256, so a hardware key can be pinned beside it). To register, open the hub at `http://localhost:<port>/` (WebAuthn needs the domain; on `127.0.0.1` the page links there), choose "Passkey registrieren" in the settings and run the host command the page shows, `python3 ~/.local/share/kvb-orchestrator/client/approval.py pin --port <port> --approvers ~/.config/kvb-orchestrator/approvers.json --credential '<blob>'`, in a terminal outside every sandbox: it pins the key in `~/.config/kvb-orchestrator/approvers.json` with mode 0600, a file no sandboxed agent can write and the hub mounts read-only; the hub never pins. Each approval, or one bulk selection, is one signature over the hashes of every item, a nonce and an expiry; each auto-approval rule is signed once. The executors verify it themselves against the pinned keys and fail closed: the runner (`client/runner.py`, the `kvb-orchestrator-runner` user service) runs only signed commands, each signature once, recorded in `~/.local/state/kvb-orchestrator-approvals/runner.json`; the PermissionRequest hook (`client/permission_hook.py --port <port> --timeout <seconds> --approvers ~/.config/kvb-orchestrator/approvers.json --replay ~/.local/state/kvb-orchestrator-approvals/hook.json`) allows only a signed item that matches its own tool, command, cwd and session, else it leaves the decision to Claude Code's own prompt; the commit skills run `approval.py verify` on the staged tree before committing, else they ask in the terminal. With no key pinned, every executor refuses; decisions and rejections stay unsigned. A signed rule never covers a command holding `;`, `&`, `|`, a backtick, `$`, `<`, `>`, parentheses or a line break: such a command always asks. The hub page is trusted while it asks for a signature or shows the blob to pin: whoever controls the hub container can show one item and have another signed, or hand over a key of its own. Any local process, sandboxed agents included, can also send the unsigned operator actions (messages, decision choices and rules, board actions, rejections) with the hub's guard headers, and the container reads the host `/tmp` for the review pages in `/tmp/kvb-git-diff`. All three close with the agent VMs of core requirement 093, like the Docker-socket gap.

## Maintenance 🔧
|
|
|
|
Refresh every skill to its latest version and rewrite `skills-lock.json`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Validate `skills-lock.json` and shellcheck the scripts (also run by CI on every push and after every update):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test
|
|
```
