Before investigating or implementing a cost cluster (one step, hot path or repeated call, named by its log line and number), tune now runs the coordinate skill and asks every other agent session on the machine whether the cluster is already identified. The earliest claim that carries the measurement works it; the others hand over their findings and move on, so no cluster gets two competing optimizations. A claim ends with a result, a proposal, an abandoned attempt or an operator reassignment. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
skills 🧠
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.
Requirements 📦
- Node.js (provides
npx skills). jq(only required formake update).
Installation 🚀
Install the skills globally into your home (~/.agents/skills and ~/.claude/skills):
make install
Copy the skills into a specific project (<repo>/.agents/skills and <repo>/.claude/skills):
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 — autotune points you at /autotune at most once an hour, dream points you at /dream at most once every twelve hours per repository (stamped in that repository's git dir). Existing settings are preserved.
Restart your agent afterwards so it loads the new skills.
Maintenance 🔧
Refresh every skill to its latest version and rewrite skills-lock.json:
make update
Validate skills-lock.json and shellcheck the scripts (also run by CI on every push and after every update):
make test
