Matt Pocock 770a0504db ask-matt: map the full skill set, add router maintenance rule

Ask Matt was missing five skills that now exist and are user-reachable:
tdd (the red-green engine implement drives), diagnosing-bugs (there was
no route for "something's broken"), domain-modeling and codebase-design
(the two vocabulary references), and grilling (the shared primitive).

- SKILL.md: add a "Something's broken" on-ramp for diagnosing-bugs, a
  "Vocabulary underneath" section for domain-modeling/codebase-design,
  weave tdd into the main flow, flesh out prototype, broaden the
  description from "user-invoked skills" to "the skills".
- docs/engineering/ask-matt.md: re-sync the framing to match.
- CLAUDE.md: add a maintenance rule so any future skill change triggers
  an Ask Matt re-check, beside the existing docs-page re-sync rule.

Raw Blame History

Skills are organized into bucket folders under skills/:

engineering/ — daily code work
productivity/ — daily non-code workflow tools
misc/ — kept around but rarely used, not promoted
personal/ — tied to my own setup, not promoted
in-progress/ — drafts not yet ready to ship
deprecated/ — no longer used

Every skill in engineering/ or productivity/ (the promoted buckets) must have a reference in the top-level README.md and an entry in .claude-plugin/plugin.json. Skills in misc/, personal/, in-progress/, and deprecated/ must not appear in either.

Each skill entry in the top-level README.md must link the skill name to its SKILL.md.

Each bucket folder has a README.md that lists every skill in the bucket with a one-line description, with the skill name linked to its SKILL.md. The promoted buckets' README.mds and the top-level README.md group entries into User-invoked and Model-invoked; non-promoted bucket README.mds (misc/, personal/) use a flat list.

Skills in engineering/ and productivity/ also have a human-facing docs page at docs/<bucket>/<skill-name>.md (the docs tree mirrors those two bucket folders under skills/). The published URL is https://aihero.dev/skills-<skill-name> regardless of bucket — the docs path is repo organisation only. When you add, rename, or change the behaviour of a skill in engineering/ or productivity/, create or re-sync its docs page following .agents/writing-docs.md. Skills in the non-promoted buckets (misc/, personal/, in-progress/, deprecated/) get no docs page.

Every SKILL.md is either user-invoked (disable-model-invocation: true, reachable only by the human) or model-invoked (model- or user-reachable). See .agents/invocation.md.

ask-matt is the router that maps every user-reachable skill and how they relate. The same trigger that re-syncs a docs page applies to it: whenever you add, rename, remove, or change how a user-reachable skill fits the flows, re-read ask-matt's SKILL.md and update it so the map stays accurate — a new skill it never mentions, or a stale one it still routes to, is a router that lies.

To (re)link every skill into the local harness skill directories (~/.claude/skills, ~/.agents/skills), run scripts/link-skills.sh. Each entry is a symlink into this repo, so a git pull keeps installed skills current; re-run the script after adding, removing, or renaming a skill.
