Agent Operations Skills

Agent operations skills maintain the wiki, agent docs, routing, automations, process hygiene, handoffs, and cross-agent coordination. Source: Skill Registry, 2026-11-04

When To Use This

Use this family for wiki maintenance, agent docs, routing, automations, process hygiene, handoff, skill creation, config sync, Codex/Cursor setup, and cross-agent coordination.

Core Model

Executable behavior lives in skills/**/SKILL.md. This page owns family-level routing, tradeoffs, and failure modes. Exhaustive inventory lives in Skill Registry. Full retired article bodies live in Retired Skill Article Ledger.
