Five skills copied for Jerry to study how Anthropic structures task-specific
guidance for a coding agent. Not Jerry's own skills — examples of the pattern.
mermaid/ Anthropic built-in; 18+ diagram types with on-demand references/
caveman/ Plugin: compressed communication mode (3 intensity levels)
caveman-commit/ Plugin: conventional-commit message generation
caveman-review/ Plugin: compressed PR review comments
compress/ Plugin: memory-file compression
The worth-borrowing pattern: every SKILL.md has a trigger line, rules, worked
examples, and boundaries. Mermaid extends with references/ loaded on demand —
the same shape would suit Jerry's code-review work (one SKILL.md plus
per-topic references like go-concurrency.md, auth.md).
README in the directory explains the layout and how Jerry can use these.
