Agent skills for pragmatic programmers.

# No-bs skills

These agent skills are meant for pragmatic programmers. I actually use them and I'm actively improving them.

## Why this repo?

- LLM answers are packed with buzzwords, and the one useful sentence is a needle in a haystack. I want the agent to do the work I assigned. The implications and the consequences are mine to reason about, until a real AGI shows up and it does me dirty.

- I don't like the shape the human-agent interaction usually takes: *human stops thinking* -> prompt -> the agent's plan (and no matter how much context engineering you do, unless you are building a calculator that plan hides serious holes) -> 500 to 1000+ lines of horrifying code.

## Which skill should I pick?

I...

- Know how to code but I'm lazy, or I want to iterate fast $\Rightarrow$ [`fill-the-gaps`](#fill-the-gaps)
- Don't know how to code **something** but I'm eager to learn $\Rightarrow$ [`add-didactic-comments`](#add-didactic-comments)
