What this skill does
Setup Matt Pocock's Skills When to Use Use when this workflow matches the user request: Configure this repo for the engineering skills — set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the other engineering skills. Source: mattpocock/skills (MIT). Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the engineering skills assume: Issue tracker — where issues live (GitHub by default; local markdown is also supported out of the box) Triage labels — the strings used for the five canonical triage roles Domain docs — where CONTEXT.md and ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script.

CONTEXT.md and CONTEXT-MAP.md at the repo root docs/adr/ and any src//docs/adr/ directories docs/agents/ — does this skill's prior output already exist? .scratch/ — sign that a local-markdown issue tracker convention is already in use 2.

Don't dump all three at once. Assume the user does not know what these terms mean. Each section starts with a short explainer (what it is, why these skills need it, what changes if they pick differently). Then show the choices and the default. Section A — Issue tracker. Explainer: The "issue tracker" is where issues live for this repo. …
