Matt Pocock 8fa032a8fd docs: exclude misc/ skills from the public docs
misc/ skills are niche — they stay promoted (README + plugin manifest,
so they're installable) but no longer get a public aihero.dev docs
page. Remove the four misc pages and decouple the docs rule from the
promotion rule in CLAUDE.md and the writing-docs guide.

Skills are organized into bucket folders under skills/:

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

Every skill in engineering/, productivity/, or misc/ must have a reference in the top-level README.md and an entry in .claude-plugin/plugin.json. Skills in 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. Bucket README.mds and the top-level README.md group entries into User-invoked and Model-invoked.

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. misc/ skills are promoted (README + plugin.json) but 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.

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.
