> Here's what's new:
> - Docs: the community's biggest ask. Every skill documented, with explanations of the main flows + troubleshooting
> - Claude Plugin: install via Claude's official marketplace
> - Codex Support: full Codex support via agents/openai.yaml files
> Updated Skills:
> - /grilling now asks you questions in rounds, not one-by-one
> - /prototype now uses HTML instead of a TUI for building logic prototypes - easier to share and far richer
> - /writing-for-agents renamed from /writing-great-skills, use it for ANYTHING your agents read (AGENTS.md, system prompts, docs)
> New Skills:
> - /wizard: tired of provisioning infra? Get your agent to build you a TUI to walk you through it
> - /to-questionnaire: hit a grilling question you can't answer? Turn the session into a doc you can walk through on a call with a colleague
> - /wait-what: no idea what the model said? Refocus it in your domain language and simplify with ASD-STE100
> Full changelog + docs below. Video soon!
