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.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/mattpocock/skills /tmp/skills && ln -s /tmp/skills/skills/engineering/setup-matt-pocock-skills ~/.claude/skills/setup-matt-pocock-skills
```

## From README

Matt Pocock's Skills 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 GLOSSARY.md and ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script. Explore, present what you found, confirm with the user, then write. Process Explore Look at the current repo to understand its starting state. Read whatever exists; don't assume: git remote -v and .git/config: is this a GitHub repo? Which one? AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md at the repo root: does either exist? Is there already an \#\# Agent skills section in either? GLOSSARY.md and GLOSSARY-MAP.md at the repo root, and the legacy CONTEXT.md / CONTEXT-MAP.md. If a legacy file exists, offer to git mv it to its GLOSSARY name and rewrite those names in docs/agents/domain.md.
