QVAC Custom Skills Catalog

SkillDev tools

Lets your agent list all qv-* custom skills in the repo and explain what each one does and when to use it.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the QVAC Custom Skills Catalog skill

About this capability

Catalog of all repo qv-* custom skills with one-line purpose and when-to-use. Use when the user asks what skills exist, which skill to use, how to invoke a skill, or invokes /qv-skill-list.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by tetherto/qvac in .agents/skills/qv-skill-list/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

All custom repo skills live under .agents/skills/ and use the qv- prefix. Invoke with /qv-<name> in chat.

Not listed here (by design):

  • setup — repo-wide bootstrap (/setup); copies shared config from packages/ocr-ggml/.agent/ into .claude/ and .cursor/.
  • packages/ocr-ggml/.agent/skills/ — framework skills (orchestrate, release, ci-validate, commit-trace, review); installed by /setup, not qv-* prefixed.

How to invoke

ModeBehavior
Auto-invokableNo disable-model-invocation in frontmatter — the agent may load the skill when your request matches the description.
Manual onlydisable-model-invocation: true — invoke explicitly with /qv-<name> (or ask the agent to run that skill).

When unsure which skill fits, scan the tables below or ask: "which qv skill should I use for …?"
