Safely review, sync, and locally update forked tmux plugins. Use whenever the user mentions tmux-upstream, tmux plugin forks, `prefix + U`, a `connorads/<plugin>` fork being commits behind upstream, asks whether a tmux plugin update is dodgy/compromised/safe, or asks to sync/update a forked tmux plugin. Default to review-only and ask before syncing unless the user explicitly requested automatic safe sync.

mechanical-enforcement

connorads/dotfiles

Catalogue of preferred linter rules, TypeScript flags, clippy thresholds, and architectural boundary checks for making bug classes and design drift mechanically impossible. Use when setting up linting in a new project, hardening an existing project, responding to a class of bug by encoding a rule, or deciding which linter to reach for on a given stack. Pairs with the `hk` skill which handles wiring hooks.

testing

connorads/dotfiles

Design and write effective tests for behavioural changes, bug fixes, and refactors. Use when choosing a test layer, practising TDD, picking doubles/fakes, reducing brittle or flaky tests, refactoring safely, or applying property-based, snapshot/approval, differential/metamorphic, or contract testing. For coverage, thresholds, mutation testing, fuzzing, and CI/hook enforcement, use the test-coverage skill.

homebrew-formula-authoring

connorads/dotfiles

Create, update, validate, and submit Homebrew formulae (homebrew-core, built from source). Use when the user mentions a Homebrew formula, Homebrew/homebrew-core, adding/updating a formula, brew create, building from source, a build system in a brew context (cargo/rust, go, cmake, meson, autotools/configure, make, python virtualenv, node/npm, ruby gem), resource blocks, depends_on/keg_only/uses_from_macos, the mandatory test do block, bottles, livecheck, brew bump-formula-pr, or when asked to run brew audit --new / brew test / brew style for a formula. For macOS GUI apps and prebuilt binaries use the homebrew-cask-authoring skill instead.

test-coverage

connorads/dotfiles

Systematically audit, improve, and enforce test coverage, and gate test quality in CI — across any ecosystem (TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust). Use to raise coverage, set thresholds, audit gaps, manage exclusions, merge reports, wire coverage into CI/hooks, or add mutation testing and fuzzing as quality gates. Composes with the hk skill for pre-commit enforcement. For how to design and write good tests — property-based, snapshot/approval, differential, contract, flaky-test handling — use the testing skill.

update-vendored-skills

connorads/dotfiles

Safely refresh the vendored third-party agent skills in this dotfiles repo. Use whenever the user wants to update, refresh, upgrade, or re-pull vendored skills (`skills update`), or asks to check whether a skill refresh is safe / dodgy / compromised before committing. `skills update` is an unauthenticated git clone with no quarantine, no signature, and no scan — and skill files are instructions injected into every agent session — so this skill gates each refresh by reading the diff and only auto-commits trusted-source, clean-diff updates.
