Why this level
- The remote bootstrap downloads and immediately executes a Python script, and the installer writes into agent skill directories.
- Git and test skills run commands in your repository.
Install

What it does
Bensz Agent Skills brings three parts into one repository. The first is 17 ready skills in `skills/alpha`: `init-project` and `write-readme` for documents, `auto-test-code`, `auto-test-skill` and `auto-test-project` for checks, `awesome-code` and `parallel-vibe` for planning and parallel agent work, `better-prompt`, `humanization`, `auto-draw-plot`, `git-commit`, `git-pr-review`, `git-publish-release` and more. The second is a single skill development pipeline: create, test, document, install, use, feedback. The third is the `bensz-skill-kernel`, which manages task stages, checks, workspaces, an evidence ledger and replay. The `install-bensz-skills` skill installs chosen skills into `~/.codex/skills/` and `~/.claude/skills/`.
Who it is for. Developers and researchers running projects in Claude Code or Codex who want ready skills for tests, Git and documents plus a way to check that skills actually ran.
Good fit when
- A project needs a README and a `docs/` directory in one standard order
- Changes must be committed, sent for review and released through Git skills
- Several agents share a task and need a plan plus safe parallel execution
- An article or letter needs polishing while keeping facts and format
- You want to know whether a skill fired and which steps it skipped
Not a fit when
- You need one skill with minimal installation: the set is large with its own installer
- Your environment lacks Python 3.8 or newer, which the installer needs
- You want untrusted code to run in an isolated environment: kernel checks do not replace a sandbox
Example request
Write a README for this project with the `write-readme` skill, then make a commit with the `git-commit` skill.Limitations
Installation needs Python: the remote bootstrap works from 3.8, while the full installer and kernel require 3.11. The first README command runs a script downloaded from GitHub and executed on the fly, so read it first or use the local `install.py` after cloning. Kernel timeouts and limits do not replace a sandbox, so run untrusted code separately. Real skill triggering depends on your agent supporting the skills directory. `beta` skills are not part of the default install. Documentation is in Chinese with an English version in `README_EN.md`.
How to disable. Delete the skill folders from `~/.codex/skills/` and `~/.claude/skills/`. Install records, the MD5 list and cache live in `~/.bensz-skills/installation/` and are removed separately.
FAQ
How do I install the skills?
Clone the repository and run `python3 skills/alpha/install-bensz-skills/scripts/install.py`: skills are copied into `~/.codex/skills/` and `~/.claude/skills/`. For one skill add `--skill <name>`.
Is there an install without cloning?
Yes, the remote `bootstrap_install.py` runs as a one-liner and needs Python 3.8 or newer. It downloads code from GitHub and executes it, so try the `--check` mode first, which previews changes without writing.
What does `humanization` do?
It polishes articles, emails, reports and technical text, adapting to the register while keeping facts, intent and format. The skill inherits the older name `nsfc-humanization`.
What is BSK?
The `bensz-skill-kernel` core checks whether a skill fired and no steps were skipped: task stages, checks, workspaces, an evidence ledger, audit and replay.
Which skills does `alpha` include?
Seventeen: `init-project`, `write-readme`, `auto-test-code`, `auto-test-skill`, `auto-test-project`, `awesome-code`, `parallel-vibe`, `better-prompt`, `auto-draw-plot`, `compact-bensz-skills`, `humanization`, `install-bensz-skills`, `git-commit`, `git-pr-review`, `git-publish-release`, `bensz-collect-bugs` and `verifier-state-architect`.

README in short
The README describes the three project parts, principles, a quick start, skill navigation, installation and update methods, the kernel and compatibility limits. The author suggests pasting the project address into your agent and exploring it together.
