# brooks-lint — New Skill Scaffold

Skill name comes from the user request (kebab-case, e.g. `brooks-security`). If empty,
ask for the name and a one-line purpose first.

Follow the repo's "Adding a New Skill" checklist exactly:

1. **Create `skills/{name}/SKILL.md`** with frontmatter — `name`, a `description`
   that ends with a `Do NOT trigger for:` clause (validate-enforced for shipped
   skills; omitting it causes false triggering), `metadata:` with `opencode/slash: "true"`, and a `Process` section of 3–6
   bullets that cite the guide's step ranges inline (e.g. `Scan risks (Steps 1–6 of
   the guide)`). Mirror the structure of an existing skill such as
   `skills/brooks-review/SKILL.md` (Setup → Process → Mode line).
2. **Create `skills/{name}/{name}-guide.md`** with sequentially numbered steps —
   no gaps, no duplicates. Sub-steps like `Step 2a` are allowed. The guide owns the
   detailed steps; the SKILL.md Process is just an orientation skeleton.
3. **Wire the framework.** The new SKILL.md Setup section must Read the relevant
   `_shared/` files (`common.md` for Iron Law + Report Template, plus
   `decay-risks.md` / `test-decay-risks.md` as applicable) — `_shared/` is NOT
   auto-loaded.
4. **Add eval coverage** to `evals/evals.json`: append with the next sequential
   `id` at least one happy-path scenario (with the relevant risk code in
   `expected_output`) and at least one false-positive scenario flagged
   `no_risk_codes: true`. Each scenario needs `id`, `name`, `prompt`,
   `expected_output`, `mode`, `files`.
5. **Validate.** `npm run validate` (structure + step continuity + Process-section
   presence) and `npm run evals` (eval schema). Fix until both pass.
6. **Local-test.** Link the new skill folder from `skills/` into
   `.agents/skills/` alongside the `_shared` symlink, then invoke it with
   `$<skill-name>` in a Codex session and verify the Iron Law output.

Codex discovers repository skills directly; no command wrapper is needed.
Report the files created and the validate/evals results.
