When you want to model personal financial scenarios — house purchase + rental income (ADU, bedroom rentals, house-hacking), renovation budgets, monthly cash flow, big-purchase decisions, savings/investment what-ifs for a household. Ships with a house scenario template; other scenarios (refi, car, education, retirement, side income) slot in as templates. Outputs markdown scenario comparison tables. Saves scenarios to ~/Documents/personal-cfo/ with an index in ~/.config/makerskills/personal-cfo/archive/. Not for company books or monthly reporting (that's company-cfo). Composes with decide, deep-research (rental comps, rates), business-brainstorm, second-brain. Triggers on \"/personal-cfo,\" \"model this scenario,\" \"house math,\" \"rental forecast,\" \"monthly cash flow,\" \"what if I rent out the ADU,\" \"compare these housing scenarios,\" \"should we buy this house,\" \"house-hack math,\" \"renovation budget.\"

When you want to read and extract structured notes from a book — PDF, EPUB, MOBI, markdown, .txt, pasted text, or URL to a public-domain work. Reads in chunks (by chapter when a TOC exists, by 50-page blocks otherwise), extracts per-chapter TL;DR + key concepts + quotes + action items + frameworks, and offers to capture to second-brain raw/ as a highlights- file. Four modes — notes (default, chapter-by-chapter), summary (whole-book TL;DR + 3–5 takeaways), quotes (pull-quote highlights only), study (notes + Q&A spaced-rep prep). Triggers on "/read-book," "read this book," "extract notes from this PDF," "what's in this book," "summarize this ebook," "pull quotes from this." Sibling to watch-video (same content-consumption pattern, different medium).

When you want to capture into, compile, query, lint, or connect your personal Second Brain. Wraps the Karpathy LLM Wiki schema (Obsidian or any markdown vault) — raw/ (unprocessed sources), wiki/ (AI-compiled interlinked topic pages), outputs/ (generated artifacts). Vault defaults to ${SECOND_BRAIN_VAULT:-$HOME/Documents/SecondBrain}/. Six modes — capture (drop something into raw/), compile (process unprocessed raw files into wiki pages, update INDEX.md), query (answer a question from the wiki, save to outputs/), lint (orphans / contradictions / stale / unprocessed raw / topic gaps), connect (suggest new wikilinks between pages), search (quick lookup). Triggers on "/second-brain," "/sb," "capture this," "save this to my brain," "compile the wiki," "process raw notes," "query my wiki," "ask my brain," "lint the wiki," "find connections," "search my notes." Complements deep-research (external corpus) — this is the internal corpus. Team knowledge goes to company-brain, not here.

When you want to create, adapt, or update an Agent Skill (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other hosts) in one of your repos (listed in ~/.config/makerskills/skillify/repos.yaml; defaults to makerskills). Modes — CREATE (from chat, video, dump, or scratch) turns a workflow into a new skill. ADAPT ports an external skill with keep/adapt/add classification, license check, and attribution. UPDATE improves existing skills from learnings with cross-skill propagation, memory-vs-skill triage, and semver. TEST role-plays users through a skill and judges transcripts against a rubric. Checks new skills for host portability. Triggers on "/skillify," "create a skill," "make this a skill," "adapt this skill," "port this skill," "update X skill," "propagate this learning," "improve [skill]," "fix [skill]," "test this skill," "exercise [skill]." Part of the -ify trifecta — integrations and MCP servers go to toolify, schedules and loops to loopify.
When you want to draft, update, convert, or export a slide deck for a React/Next.js slide system (${SLIDE_DECK_REPO:-$HOME/code/your-slide-deck-site}/src/app/slides/). Writes TypeScript Slide[] arrays using your primitives (Eyebrow, Heading, Accent, Body, BulletList, Divider, TwoCol, GradientText), 12 cycling brand gradients, optional sections for "where am I" context, and speaker notes. Inspired by zarazhangrui/frontend-slides — "show, don't tell" for narrative (presents 3 angles, you pick) plus density modes (speaker-led vs reading-first). Four modes — new (draft from brief), update (modify existing, with overflow guards), ppt (convert legacy PPTX → React deck), export (Playwright snapshot existing React deck to standalone HTML, PDF, or Vercel URL — keeps brand). Triggers on "/slide-deck," "/slides new," "/slides export," "/slides update," "/slides ppt," "draft a deck," "deck for [topic]," "talk on [topic]," "keynote on [topic]," "internal deck for [audience]," "convert this pptx," "export this deck.

When a solution seems impossible and the path forward is blocked. Refuses to take no for an answer: classifies what kind of \"no\" you hit, then runs lateral-thinking techniques (assumption autopsy, inversion, first principles, constraint toggling, analogical transfer, and more) until the wall cracks or is proven load-bearing. Generates at least 10 angles before evaluating any. AGENTS: use this on yourself when an API doesn't support what you need, an approach has failed twice, or a \"that's not possible\" sentence is forming — run the fast path BEFORE reporting a dead end. Archives walls to ~/.config/makerskills/unstuck/archive/. Sits upstream of decide. Triggers on \"/unstuck,\" \"I'm stuck,\" \"this seems impossible,\" \"we hit a wall,\" \"there's no way to,\" \"they said no,\" \"dead end,\" \"out of options,\" \"I've tried everything,\" \"work around this.\"

Drive a dev build of Spare (macOS menu bar app + `spare` CLI) the way a user does and capture proof. Use before claiming a Spare change works, to reproduce a bug, or when asked to verify/test Spare end to end.

A folder with a SKILL.md file: a name, a description of when to use it, and instructions. Claude loads a skill only when the task matches its description.
How do I use one I find here?
Copy the folder into your project's .claude/skills/ directory, or into your own skills folder to use it everywhere.
What do the warnings mean?
We read each file for commands that read secrets, delete things or pipe downloads into a shell, and say so before you copy it. No warning is not a promise that a file is safe.
Which skills worked for people?
Open a skill to see its discussion. Reports from people and their agents are coming.
