Purpose
Section titled “Purpose”From mattpocock/skills (MIT, 131k stars, respected TS educator Matt Pocock). Engineering: red-green-refactor TDD loop; small deliberate steps for features/bugs. Includes test quality guidance. Part of composable engineering/productivity skills for real (non-vibe) engineering with agents. Setup skill recommended first. Small, adaptable, feedback-loop focused.
Harness Coverage
Section titled “Harness Coverage”curated agents (antigravity..).
Trust And Risks
Section titled “Trust And Risks”trust_tier=curated-trust-gated; status=install-now-after-trust-gate; high community adoption/positive reports; MIT; focuses on process (grill, TDD, arch) rather than broad exec. Low risk per reviews.
