🛠️ Repository Maintenance Guide (V5)

"If it's not documented, it's broken."

This guide details the exact procedures for maintaining antigravity-awesome-skills. It covers the Quality Bar, Documentation Consistency, and Release Workflows.

Maintainer shortcuts: Merge a PR · Post-merge & contributors · Close issues · Create a release

0. 🤖 Agent Protocol (THE BIBLE)

AGENTS MUST READ AND FOLLOW THIS SECTION BEFORE MARKING ANY TASK AS COMPLETE.

There are 3 things that usually fail/get forgotten. DO NOT FORGET THEM:

1. 📤 ALWAYS PUSH (Non-Negotiable)

Committing is NOT enough. You must PUSH to the remote.

  • BAD: git commit -m "feat: new skill" (User sees nothing)
  • GOOD: git commit -m "..." && git push origin main

2. 🔄 SYNC GENERATED FILES (Avoid CI Drift)

If you touch any of these:

  • skills/ (add/remove/modify skills)
  • the Full Skill Registry section of README.md
  • counts/claims about the number of skills (1,200+ Agentic Skills..., (1,200+/1,200+), etc.)

…then you MUST run the Validation Chain BEFORE committing.

  • Running npm run chain is NOT optional.
  • Running npm run catalog is NOT optional.

If CI fails with:

❌ Detected uncommitted changes produced by registry/readme/catalog scripts.

it means you did not run or commit the Validation Chain correctly.

3. 📝 EVIDENCE OF WORK

  • You must create/update walkthrough.md or CHANGELOG.md to document what changed.
  • If you made something new, link it in the artifacts.

4. 🚫 NO BRANCHES

  • ALWAYS use the main branch.
  • NEVER create feature branches (e.g., feat/new-skill).
  • We commit directly to main to keep history linear and simple.

1. 🚦 Daily Maintenance Routine

A. Validation Chain

Before ANY commit that adds/modifies skills, run the chain:

  1. Validate, index, and update readme:

    npm run chain

    Must return 0 errors for new skills.

  2. Build catalog:

    npm run catalog

  3. COMMIT GENERATED FILES:

    git add README.md skills_index.json data/catalog.json data/bundles.json data/aliases.json CATALOG.md
git commit -m "chore: sync generated files"

    🔴 CRITICAL: If you skip this, CI will fail with "Detected uncommitted changes". See docs/CI_DRIFT_FIX.md for details.

B. When You Merge a PR (Step-by-Step)

Before merging:

  1. CI is green — All Validation Chain and catalog steps passed (see workflows/ci.yml).
  2. No drift — PR does not introduce uncommitted generated-file changes; if the "Check for Uncommitted Drift" step failed, ask the author to run npm run chain and npm run catalog and commit the result.
  3. Quality Bar — PR description confirms the Quality Bar Checklist (metadata, risk label, credits if applicable).
  4. Issue link — If the PR fixes an issue, the PR description should contain Closes #N or Fixes #N so GitHub auto-closes the issue on merge.

Right after merging:

  1. If the PR had Closes #N — The issue is closed automatically; no extra action.
  2. If an issue was fixed but not linked — Close it manually and add a comment, e.g.: 
    Fixed in #<PR_NUMBER>. Shipped in release vX.Y.Z.
  3. Single PR or small batch — Optionally run the full Post-Merge Routine below. For a single, trivial PR you can defer it to the next release prep.

C. Post-Merge Routine (Must Do Before a Release)

After you have merged several PRs or before cutting a release:

  1. Sync Contributors List:

    • Run: git shortlog -sn --all
    • Update ## Repo Contributors in README.md.

  2. Verify Table of Contents:

    • Ensure all new headers have clean anchors.
    • NO EMOJIS in H2 headers.

  3. Prepare for release — Draft the release and tag when ready (see §4 Release Workflow below).

2. 📝 Documentation "Pixel Perfect" Rules

We discovered several consistency issues during V4 development. Follow these rules STRICTLY.

A. Table of Contents (TOC) Anchors

GitHub's anchor generation breaks if headers have emojis.

  • BAD: ## 🚀 New Here? -> Anchor: #--new-here (Broken)
  • GOOD: ## New Here? -> Anchor: #new-here (Clean)

Rule: NEVER put emojis in H2 (##) headers. Put them in the text below if needed.

B. The "Trinity" of Docs

If you update installation instructions or tool compatibility, you MUST update all 3 files:

  1. README.md (Source of Truth)
  2. docs/GETTING_STARTED.md (Beginner Guide)
  3. docs/FAQ.md (Troubleshooting)

Common pitfall: Updating the clone URL in README but leaving an old one in FAQ.

C. Statistics Consistency (CRITICAL)

If you add/remove skills, you MUST ensure the total count is identical in ALL locations. Do not allow drift (e.g., 560 in title, 558 in header).

Locations to check:

  1. Title of README.md: "1,200+ Agentic Skills..."
  2. ## Full Skill Registry (1,200+/1,200+) header.
  3. docs/GETTING_STARTED.md intro.

D. Credits Policy (Who goes where?)

  • Credits & Sources: Use this for External Repos.
    • Rule: "I extracted skills from this link you sent me." -> Add to ## Credits & Sources.
  • Repo Contributors: Use this for Pull Requests.
    • Rule: "This user sent a PR." -> Add to ## Repo Contributors.

E. Badges & Links

  • Antigravity Badge: Must point to https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills, NOT anthropics/antigravity.
  • License: Ensure the link points to LICENSE file.

F. Workflows Consistency (NEW in V5)

If you touch any Workflows-related artifact, keep all workflow surfaces in sync:

  1. docs/WORKFLOWS.md (human-readable playbooks)
  2. data/workflows.json (machine-readable schema)
  3. skills/antigravity-workflows/SKILL.md (orchestration entrypoint)

Rules:

  • Every workflow id referenced in docs must exist in data/workflows.json.
  • If you add/remove a workflow step category, update prompt examples accordingly.
  • If a workflow references optional skills not yet merged (example: go-playwright), mark them explicitly as optional in docs.
  • If workflow onboarding text is changed, update the docs trinity:
    • README.md
    • docs/GETTING_STARTED.md
    • docs/FAQ.md

3. 🛡️ Governance & Quality Bar

A. The 5-Point Quality Check

Reject any PR that fails this:

  1. Metadata: Has name, description?
  2. Safety: risk: offensive used for red-team tools?
  3. Clarity: Does it say when to use it?
  4. Examples: Copy-pasteable code blocks?
  5. Actions: "Run this command" vs "Think about this".

B. Risk Labels (V4)

  • ⚪ Safe: Default.
  • 🔴 Risk: Destructive/Security tools. MUST have [Authorized Use Only] warning.
  • 🟣 Official: Vendor mirrors only.

4. 🚀 Release Workflow

When cutting a new version (e.g., v4.1.0):

Release checklist (order matters):
Validate → Changelog → Bump package.json (and README if needed) → Commit & push → Create GitHub Release with tag matching package.json (e.g. v4.1.0 ↔ "version": "4.1.0") → npm publish (manual or via CI) → Close any remaining linked issues.

  1. Run Full Validation: python3 scripts/validate_skills.py --strict

  2. Update Changelog: Add the new release section to CHANGELOG.md.

  3. Bump Version:

    • Update package.json → "version": "X.Y.Z" (source of truth for npm).
    • Update version header in README.md if it displays the number.
    • One-liner: npm version patch (or minor/major) — bumps package.json and creates a git tag; then amend if you need to tag after release.

  4. Create GitHub Release (REQUIRED):

    ⚠️ CRITICAL: Pushing a tag (git push --tags) is NOT enough. You must create a GitHub Release Object for it to appear in the sidebar and trigger the NPM publish workflow.

    Use the GitHub CLI:

    # Prepare release notes (copy the new section from CHANGELOG.md into release_notes.md, or use CHANGELOG excerpt)
# Then create the tag AND the release page (tag must match package.json version, e.g. v4.1.0)
gh release create v4.0.0 --title "v4.0.0 - [Theme Name]" --notes-file release_notes.md

    Important: The release tag (e.g. v4.1.0) must match package.json's "version": "4.1.0". The Publish to npm workflow runs on Release published and will run npm publish; npm rejects republishing the same version.

    Or create the release manually via GitHub UI > Releases > Draft a new release, then publish.

  5. Publish to npm (so npx antigravity-awesome-skills works):

    • Option A (manual): From repo root, with npm logged in and 2FA/token set up: 
      npm publish
      You cannot republish the same version; always bump package.json before publishing.
    • Option B (CI): On GitHub, create a Release (tag e.g. v4.6.1). The workflow Publish to npm runs on Release published and runs npm publish if the repo secret NPM_TOKEN is set (npm → Access Tokens → Granular token with Publish, then add as repo secret NPM_TOKEN).

  6. Close linked issue(s):

    • Issues that had Closes #N / Fixes #N in a merged PR are already closed.
    • For any issue that was fixed by the release but not auto-closed, close it manually and add a comment, e.g.: 
      gh issue close <ID> --comment "Shipped in vX.Y.Z. See CHANGELOG.md and release notes."

When to Close an Issue

Situation Action
PR merges and PR body contains Closes #N or Fixes #N GitHub closes the issue automatically.
PR merges but did not reference the issue After merge, close manually: gh issue close N --comment "Fixed in #<PR>. Shipped in vX.Y.Z."
Fix/feature shipped in a release, no PR referenced Close with: gh issue close N --comment "Shipped in vX.Y.Z. See CHANGELOG."

📋 Changelog Entry Template

Each new release section in CHANGELOG.md should follow Keep a Changelog and this structure:

## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD - "[Theme Name]"

> **[One-line catchy summary of the release]**

[Brief 2-3 sentence intro about the release's impact]

## 🚀 New Skills

### [Emoji] [Skill Name](skills/skill-name/)

**[Bold high-level benefit]**
[Description of what it does]

- **Key Feature 1**: [Detail]
- **Key Feature 2**: [Detail]

> **Try it:** `(User Prompt) ...`

---

## 📦 Improvements

- **Registry Update**: Now tracking [N] skills.
- **[Component]**: [Change detail]

## 👥 Credits

A huge shoutout to our community contributors:

- **@username** for `skill-name`
- **@username** for `fix-name`

_Upgrade now: `git pull origin main` to fetch the latest skills._

5. 🚨 Emergency Fixes

If a skill is found to be harmful or broken:

  1. Move to broken folder (don't detect): mv skills/bad-skill skills/.broken/
  2. Or Add Warning: Add > [!WARNING] to the top of SKILL.md.
  3. Push Immediately.

6. 📁 Data directory note

data/package.json exists for historical reasons; the build and catalog scripts run from the repo root and use root node_modules. You can ignore or remove data/package.json and data/node_modules if present.
