55 reusable Claude Code skills with eval coverage across 40 skills. Each skill is a focused workflow you can invoke with /skill-name in any Claude Code session.
What Are Skills?
Skills are Claude Code plugins that provide specialized capabilities. They're stored in skills/golem-powers/ and can be installed into any project. Each skill has a trigger (slash command), a description, and focused instructions for a specific workflow.
In any Claude Code session with golem-powers installed:
/commit # Invoke the commit skill
/interview-practice # Start interview practice
/railway logs # Check Railway deployment logs
Adapter Layer
Skills are AI-agnostic — each skill can include adapters for different AI CLI tools:
CLI
Adapter
Claude Code
adapters/claude.md
Cursor
adapters/cursor.md
Gemini CLI
adapters/gemini.md
Codex CLI
adapters/codex.md
Kiro
adapters/kiro.md
Installing Skills
Skills are available as a Claude Code plugin:
# From your project directoryclaude --plugin-dir ~/Gits/golems/skills/golem-powers
Or symlink into your project's .claude/commands/ directory for per-project access.
Eval Coverage
40 of 55 skills have eval suites with structured assertions. Evals verify that skills trigger correctly and produce the expected behavior. See individual skill pages for eval details.
Recent Skill Updates (2026-05-17)
Friction-reduction sprint Phase 5 — seven skill PRs merged in one night, each backed by measured signals (not hypothesis).
/large-plan Phase N+1 — every plan producing code or config now requires a separate evaluator subagent (≥8/10 or ITERATE). Self-audit explicitly does not satisfy /goal. Closes the "self-grade as evaluator" loophole observed in 4 of 4 /goal outputs the night of 2026-05-17. PR #407.
/orc C4 parallel-by-default + /agent-routing auto-dispatch triggers — batch reads ≥3, transcription ≥2, or web research ≥1 now fan out parallel sub-agents in the same turn, no permission ask. Live eval flipped Agent calls from 0 → 4 across both orc and coach launcher matrices. PR #405.
/cmux-agents envelope-vs-delivery pairing — any [FROM=X TO=Y TYPE=Z] envelope in the author's pane must be paired with send_to_agent in the same turn. Field evidence: 64 orphan envelopes in one Codex session. Also adds auto-workspace-categorization for new_split panes. PR #409.
/session-handoff inherited-citation suspect rule — after consuming a handoff doc or resuming post-compaction, all inherited file:line citations are SUSPECT until re-Read. Fabricated cites get logged with compaction-fabrication tag. Defense-in-depth against post-compaction pattern-completion fabrication. PR #410.
/presentation-builder standing-preference inline (canonical in /coach) — repeated stylistic asks (≥2 in a session) like "less terms, more visuals" become STANDING for the rest of the session. Self-prompt + self-check before every deliverable. Slide-deck eval: 9 correction turns → 2, slide 2 word count 377 → 17. PR #404.
Hyphen-aware launchers in ralph #7 — skill-creatorClaude, maakaf-homeClaude, 6pm-miniClaude and friends now resolve, so mcp__cmux__spawn_agent({repo:"skill-creator"}) works.
