- session-guardwshobson/agentsUse when working on complex multi-step tasks, when a session is getting long (40+ tool calls), when the agent starts ignoring rules it followed earlier, when conventions drift, when output quality seems to degrade, or after any context compaction event. Prevents long-session corruption AND context compaction amnesia through behavioral self-enforcement.ProductivityNo warnings★ 41.6K↓ —
- team-composition-patternswshobson/agentsDesign optimal agent team compositions with sizing heuristics, preset configurations, and agent type selection. Use this skill when deciding how many agents to spawn for a task, when choosing between a review team versus a feature team versus a debug team, when selecting the correct subagent_type for each role to ensure agents have the tools they need, when configuring display modes (tmux, iTerm2, in-process) for a CI or local environment, or when building a custom team composition for a non-standard workflow such as a migration or security audit.SecurityNo warnings★ 41.6K↓ —

- workload-manager-basicsgoogle/skillsUse this skill to manage Google Cloud Workload Manager evaluations, rules, scanned resources, and validation results by using public client libraries and the REST API. Use when you need to inspect workload best-practice rules, create and run evaluations for Google Cloud general best practices, SAP, SQL Server, or custom organizational rules, review violations, export results to BigQuery, or automate Workload Manager through client libraries because no service-specific public CLI or MCP server is available.

- google-cloud-storage-fusegoogle/skillsMounts Cloud Storage buckets on Google Cloud as a POSIX file system with Cloud Storage FUSE (gcsfuse). Use when interacting with gcsfuse or Cloud Storage FUSE mounts: decide whether FUSE, native gs:// reads, or Filestore/Managed Lustre fits a workload, deploy tuned mounts on GKE, Compute Engine, or Cloud Run, enable and size file, stat, and list caches, tune mount flags (--implicit-dirs) or config files, apply workload profiles, keep ML checkpointing safe (rename atomicity, hierarchical namespace/HNS, close-time finalization, concurrent writers), or diagnose slow training, low throughput, or bill spikes with gcsfuse metrics. Covers mount semantics, gcsfuse CLI and configs, GKE gcsfuse CSI driver (Workload Identity principal:// bindings, profile StorageClasses, sidecar sizing), and Cloud Run volume mounts.

- cloud-build-basicsgoogle/skillsTeaches the fundamentals of Cloud Build on Google Cloud. Covers core concepts, API enablement, console navigation to the Build History page, and the end-to-end workflow for creating and manually running a basic build trigger. Do not use for managing private pools or complex pipeline architectures.OfficialPlanningNo warnings★ 21.5K↓ —
- datalineage-summarygoogle/skillsSummarizes data lineage graphs on Google Cloud to help users debug data quality issues and understand data provenance for BigQuery and Cloud Storage. Use when summarizing upstream and downstream data flows, and presenting complex lineage data as an intuitive Markdown report. Don't use for generic BigQuery queries, editing lineage relationships, or downstream deprecation. Don't use for downstream blast-radius impact analysis (use datalineage-bigquery-asset-impact-analysis skill instead).OfficialProductivityNo warnings★ 21.5K↓ —
- tugboatgithub/awesome-copilotAnxiety-aware, evidence-driven collaboration for stalled or high-stakes work when a user says uncertainty, repeated setbacks, or lack of visible progress is causing significant anxiety or distress. Use immediately when explicitly invoked; when this fit is only inferred from the user's own account, ask permission before applying it. Preserve the user's ideal and turn grounded perspective-taking into persistent, bounded problem solving. Do not use to diagnose, provide therapy, manufacture certainty, or lower goals for reassurance.OtherNo warnings★ 40.4K↓ —
- pptx-quality-gateswshobson/agentsUse when validating or repairing an editable PPTX deck for geometry, accessibility, native editability, source lineage, and OOXML package integrity.DocumentsNo warnings★ 41.6K↓ —
