Need help deploying change-brief?
Chalk Labs sets up agents like this inside real teams: connected to your tools, tested on your data, with a human in the loop where it matters.
Install
Works with Claude Code, Claude apps, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf. Read the repository before you give any tool access to your data.
npx agentmarket install skill/alkalomo-change-brief
Asks which of your tools to add it to (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop) and shows the change first. See https://agentmart.dev/cli.

What's inside
- Skill name
change-brief- Description
- High-level design brief for a pull request, branch, or commit range, written so the author can read it unaccompanied. Establishes what it delivers versus what it claims, maps it against the systems it touches, and interrogates the design: whether each new durable thing (table, job, endpoint) needs to exist, whether an existing mechanism already covers it, whether what accumulates is quantified, and whether a narrow abstraction was built where a general one is implied. Ends with an options matrix and the questions that decide it. TRIGGER when: user says "brief me on this PR/change", "understand this at a high level", "no time to go line by line", "align with the author before reviewing", "does this deviate from our patterns", or "what's the blast radius". SKIP when: the user wants line-level defect hunting, severity-ranked findings, or an approve/reject verdict; the change is mechanical (version bump, typo, revert); or the design is settled and one specific question is asked.
