Created September 19, it routes a Claude Code or Codex request to one of 27 specialist roles with 79 local skills, 31 external skills, 8 recipes, 19 MCP servers and 50 detection signals (GitHub). Each role declares up front what evidence counts as done, then reports which checks ran, what passed, and what remains unverified, instead of returning a summary. Full skill instructions load only when a role selects them, keeping routing cheap. Python 3.10+, no third-party packages, not supported on native Windows.

Three things happened this month that only make sense together. Agent Plugins 1.0 shipped co-signed by six competitors: AWS, Anysphere, Microsoft, OpenAI, Vercel and Google (GitHub Changelog). It makes skills-plus-MCP bundles portable across clients. OpenAI's August 11 Codex c...
Language packs like samber/cc-skills-golang, 1,600-plus cross-tool libraries, harnesses like DeerFlow with built-in skills, even Google's Workspace CLI bundling agent skills. The unit of reuse shifted from prompts and MCP tools to portable markdown skills that travel across Cl...
EchoVault solves the "agent amnesia" problem — coding agents forgetting everything between sessions. It runs as an MCP server giving agents three tools: memory_context (load prior decisions), memory_search (find specific memories), and memory_save (persist learnings). Storage...
