@mre Skillsaw as a project is from 10/2025. It was actually born as claudelint - https://github.com/stbenjam/claudelint, if it helps the age conversation. Unfortunately I couldn't rename the GitHub repo because renaming breaks people's existing ghcr docker registry references. The commit history is there: https://github.com/stbenjam/skillsaw/graphs/commit-activity

It also appears the github action closed the PR :)

Oh, I see. Sorry for the auto-close. I had to take some drastic measures lately due to a lot of low-effort submissions. Yours looks fine, though. Reopening.

I think it's time to introduce a skill tag, although, technically, it's just Markdown with a frontmatter. But I see more and more linters target skills specifically. What do you think?

[stbenjam]

That makes sense, I added a commit that adds that tag to this branch

No problem, totally understand

[mre]

Huh, it's closed again? Can't see the reopen button either. Not sure what's going on. 🤔

I think the easiest would be to create a new PR?
