Add cross-tool positioning, Python helpers, tiers, and hygiene docs
Five improvements to position the library as a serious engineering project: 1. Cross-tool compatibility — new README "Works With" section honestly documenting where skills run (Claude Code natively; SKILL.md bodies port to other agents and chat LLMs as system prompts). 2. Python helper scripts (stdlib-only) for the three strongest skills: - sprint-planning: capacity_calculator.py (recommended commitment) - rice-prioritisation: rice_calculator.py (ranks, flags quick wins/moonshots) - cs-health-scorecard: health_score.py (weighted total + RAG) Each is wired into its SKILL.md and synced to the plugin copies. 3. Explicit skill tiering — TIERS.md + README section marking 46 Production-Ready skills and calling out Experimental (external-dependency) ones; everything else is Stable. 4. Repository hygiene — new CHANGELOG.md (Keep a Changelog format) and SKILL-AUTHORING-STANDARD.md; refreshed SECURITY.md version table and helper-script disclosure; added .gitignore. 5. Related Projects — README section linking to alirezarezvani/claude-skills and the major awesome-claude-skills / awesome-claude-code lists.

## 🔌 Works With — Cross-Tool Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
These skills were built for Claude Code, but they aren't locked to it. Each `SKILL.md` is
|
||||
two portable parts: a small **frontmatter** block (`name` + `description`) and a
|
||||
**markdown body** that is just a well-structured set of instructions and output templates.
|
||||
The body is plain English — so it works anywhere a capable model reads instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
| Platform | How it works | Auto-trigger? |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **Claude Code** (CLI / desktop / web / IDE) | Native. Install via the plugin marketplace; Claude loads a skill automatically when your request matches its description. | ✅ Yes |
|
||||
| **Claude.ai & Claude API** | Upload a skill, or paste the body in as a system prompt / project instruction. | ⚙️ Manual |
|
||||
| **Other coding agents that read the `SKILL.md` format** (e.g. Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor) | Point the agent at the skill folder, or paste the body. The frameworks are tool-agnostic; only the auto-discovery mechanism differs per tool. | ⚙️ Varies by tool |
|
||||
| **General chat LLMs** (ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, etc.) | Copy the body of any `SKILL.md` into a custom instruction / system prompt / custom GPT. You keep the full framework and output format. | ❌ Paste per use |
|
||||
|
||||
**What's verified vs. what varies:** the skill **bodies** — the frameworks, rubrics, and
|
||||
output templates that do the actual work — are model-agnostic and have been used across
|
||||
Claude and other chat LLMs. What's **Claude Code-specific** is the convenience layer:
|
||||
plugin install, automatic skill discovery from the `description`, and the helper-script
|
||||
invocation flow. On other tools you copy the body in manually and lose only the
|
||||
auto-triggering, not the substance.
|
||||
|
||||
> Prefer ChatGPT? There's also a [companion Custom GPT library](#-companion-repository--chatgpt-custom-gpts) built from the same frameworks.

## 🏷️ Skill Tiers — Start With the Strongest
|
||||
|
||||
A 170+ skill library doesn't have 170 equally-mature skills, and pretending otherwise
|
||||
wastes your time. Skills are tiered honestly so you can start with the best work:
|
||||
|
||||
- 🟢 **Production-Ready (46)** — battle-tested, stable output, used in real work. Includes the three skills with computed Python helpers (sprint planning, RICE, customer health). **Start here.**
|
||||
- 🔵 **Stable** — solid, reliable, well-structured; the default for most of the library.
|
||||
- 🟡 **Experimental** — newer or dependent on an external tool/API/scrape (Gemini, Gmail, browser automation, social scraping). Useful, but more setup and more moving parts.
|
||||
|
||||
**👉 Full breakdown: [TIERS.md](TIERS.md)** — every Production-Ready and Experimental skill listed by name.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're new, install `pm-essentials` and try a couple of Production-Ready skills before going wide.
