When should I keep a skill personal instead of sharing?

Keep skills personal if they are project-specific, contain sensitive information, or are still in an experimental or unstable state.

How do I update my local skill repo after a PR is merged?

You should switch to your main branch, pull from the upstream repository, and push to your personal fork to ensure all environments are in sync.

What tools are required for this skill?

You need the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated, along with a local clone of your skills repository to perform the workflow.

Why should I use a feature branch for every skill?

Using individual feature branches for each skill ensures that contributions can be reviewed, iterated on, and merged independently without creating conflicts.
