- open-knowledge-write-skillinkeep/open-knowledgeUse when the user wants to create, author, write, or design a new Agent Skill (a SKILL.md) — for OpenKnowledge or for their editors — including requests like 'help me write a skill', 'make a skill that…', 'turn this workflow into a skill', or improving an existing skill's triggering and discipline. Also use when capturing reusable agent guidance that should live as an installable skill rather than a one-off prompt. Covers choosing scope (project vs global), authoring inside a plugin or skills-distribution repo (write in the repo's own layout, never install), the SKILL.md frontmatter contract, progressive-disclosure structure, evaluating the skill, and installing it into the user's editors.WritingNo warnings★ 4.7K↓ —

Covers uploading CAD parts, configuring process, material, finish, threads, tolerances and inspections, getting instant or manual quotes, reading and fixing DFM feedback, choosing lead time and region, checking out and paying (card or PO), tracking orders, reordering, and troubleshooting. Applies when the user mentions Fictiv, wants a part CNC machined, 3D printed, sheet-metal fabricated, urethane cast, injection or compression molded, or die cast through an online service, asks to "get a quote" or "order parts" for a STEP/SLDPRT/STL file, wants to check a Fictiv quote or order status, or has a problem with a Fictiv upload, DFM warning, price or checkout. Also applies when the user wants custom parts manufactured and has a Fictiv account, even if Fictiv is not named.BrowserNo warnings★ 55.4K↓ —Also in 1 other repo

- daily-focus-boardgithub/awesome-copilotSpin up a personal, motivating daily focus board that renders in a browser canvas and that the user drives by talking to their AI partner. Tasks track status (to-do → in progress → done) with timestamped progress notes and roll up into a "today's momentum" feed; numeric-goal tasks (pages, pomodoros, reps) render as progress-bar counters. Executive-function / neurodivergent-friendly by design: Focus mode, kind "not today" carryover (no overdue-shaming), a brain-dump box, reduced-motion, and gentle deadline countdowns. Add, reorder, and relabel tasks live, assign Eisenhower priority (Do first / Schedule / Delegate / Later), open with an above/below-the-line check-in and a daily mantra, and save an end-of-day recap. Use when someone wants to plan their day, stay focused, kick off a work session, or track progress. Progress persists in the browser (localStorage).DesignNo warnings★ 40.6K↓ —
