oss-prep-to-contribute
From the author
Prepare to contribute to an open source repo. Reads all contribution docs, checks eligibility, assesses the user's knowledge gaps, and fills them before coding starts. Use after finding an issue with oss-find-issue, or when starting work on any OSS repo. Not for installing dependencies or getting the build and tests running. Use oss-setup-dev-env for that.

Use when the user has selected an issue and asks to set up, research, implement, test, or draft the contribution. Trigger with "/contribute-prepare" or "prepare this contribution locally".Testing★ 2.9K
- oss-write-testschiruu12/OSS-SkillsWrite tests for untested OSS code as a standalone contribution. Identifies coverage gaps, studies the repo's test conventions, and guides the user through writing tests that match existing patterns. Use when contributing tests to an open source repo, looking for a low-risk first contribution, or improving test coverage. Not for writing tests alongside a bug fix — use oss-contribute for that.Testing★ 61
- oss-write-docschiruu12/OSS-SkillsContribute documentation improvements to an OSS repo. Identifies doc gaps, studies the docs system, and verifies accuracy against source code. Use when contributing documentation to an open source project, fixing outdated setup instructions, adding missing API docs, or improving README clarity. Not for writing docs for your own project — this is for contributing docs to someone else's repo.Writing★ 61
- oss-contributechiruu12/OSS-SkillsResearch an issue deeply and present all context to the user. but the user writes the code. The LLM investigates code paths, finds relevant files, explains patterns, and identifies constraints. The user thinks through the approach and implements it. Use when ready to start working on an issue after oss-prep-to-contribute. Not for writing tests or documentation as a standalone contribution. Use oss-write-tests or oss-write-docs for those.Testing★ 61
- oss-contribution-researchrampstackco/claude-skillsResearch and prepare an outside contribution to an open-source repo, then stop at a queue item for a human to approve: policy check, intake, duplicate check, reproduction, patch, the repo's own checks, an independent critic rerun, and a disclosed, hashed draft of the exact text to post. Use this skill whenever the user wants to contribute to someone else's repo, fix an upstream bug, pick up a good-first-issue, draft an AI-assisted pull request for an outside project, follow up on their own outside PR, or run a gated contribution pipeline. Triggers on open source contribution, contribute to this repo, upstream fix, outside PR, external PR, good first issue, fix this issue in their repo, contribution research, AI-assisted PR, disclose AI in PR, reply to review on my PR. Also triggers when the user names an issue in a repo they do not maintain and asks for a fix, even if they do not say contribute.Science★ 994
- oss-setup-dev-envchiruu12/OSS-SkillsSet up a complete development environment for an unfamiliar OSS repo. Handles dependency installation, building, running tests, and configuring dev tooling. Use when cloning a new OSS repo and setting up for development, when the repo's setup instructions don't work, or when you need to debug environment issues. Not for setting up your own project — this is for getting someone else's repo running.Testing★ 61
