dotnet-timezone.NET timezone handling guidance for C# applications. Use when working with TimeZoneInfo, DateTimeOffset, NodaTime, UTC conversion, daylight saving time, scheduling across timezones, cross-platform Windows/IANA timezone IDs, or when a .NET user needs the timezone for a city, address, region, or country and copy-paste-ready C# code.0 installs refactorSurgical code refactoring to improve maintainability without changing behavior. Covers extracting functions, renaming variables, breaking down god functions, improving type safety, eliminating code smells, and applying design patterns. Less drastic than repo-rebuilder; use for gradual improvements.0 installs webapp-testingToolkit for interacting with and testing local web applications using Playwright. Supports verifying frontend functionality, debugging UI behavior, capturing browser screenshots, and viewing browser logs.0 installs mcp-deploy-manage-agentsSkill converted from mcp-deploy-manage-agents.prompt.md0 installs acreadiness-policyHelp the user pick, write, or apply an AgentRC policy. Policies customise readiness scoring by disabling irrelevant checks, overriding impact/level, setting pass-rate thresholds, or chaining org baselines with team overrides. Use when the user asks about strict mode, AI-only scoring, custom weights, CI gating, or wants org-wide standardisation.0 installs update-markdown-file-indexUpdate a markdown file section with an index/table of files from a specified folder.0 installs

data-breach-blast-radiusPre-breach impact analysis: inventories sensitive data (PII, PHI, PCI-DSS, credentials), traces data flows, scores exposure vectors, and produces a regulatory blast radius report with fine ranges sourced verbatim from GDPR Art. 83, CCPA § 1798.155(a), and HIPAA 45 CFR § 160.404. Cost benchmarks from IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report (annually updated). All citations in references/SOURCES.md for verification. Use when asked: "assess breach impact", "what data could be exposed", "calculate blast radius", "data exposure analysis", "how bad would a breach be", "quantify data risk", "sensitive data inventory", "data flow security audit", "pre-breach assessment", "worst-case breach scenario", "breach readiness", "data risk report", "/data-breach-blast-radius". For any stack handling user data, health records, or financial information. Output labels law-sourced figures (exact) vs heuristic estimates (planning only). Does not replace legal counsel.0 installs dataverse-python-production-codeGenerate production-ready Python code using Dataverse SDK with error handling, optimization, and best practices0 installs dataverse-python-quickstartGenerate Python SDK setup + CRUD + bulk + paging snippets using official patterns.0 installs debian-linux-triageTriage and resolve Debian Linux issues with apt, systemd, and AppArmor-aware guidance.0 installs dependabotComprehensive guide for configuring and managing GitHub Dependabot. Use this skill when users ask about creating or optimizing dependabot.yml files, managing Dependabot pull requests, configuring dependency update strategies, setting up grouped updates, monorepo patterns, multi-ecosystem groups, security update configuration, auto-triage rules, or any GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) supply chain security topic related to Dependabot. For pre-commit dependency vulnerability scanning in AI coding agents via the GitHub MCP Server, this skill references the Advanced Security plugin (`advanced-security@copilot-plugins`). Use this skill when an agent needs to scan dependencies for known vulnerabilities before committing.0 installs daily-focus-boardSpin up a personal, motivating daily focus board that renders in a browser canvas and that the user drives by talking to their AI partner. Tasks track status (to-do → in progress → done) with timestamped progress notes and roll up into a "today's momentum" feed; numeric-goal tasks (pages, pomodoros, reps) render as progress-bar counters. Executive-function / neurodivergent-friendly by design: Focus mode, kind "not today" carryover (no overdue-shaming), a brain-dump box, reduced-motion, and gentle deadline countdowns. Add, reorder, and relabel tasks live, assign Eisenhower priority (Do first / Schedule / Delegate / Later), open with an above/below-the-line check-in and a daily mantra, and save an end-of-day recap. Use when someone wants to plan their day, stay focused, kick off a work session, or track progress. Progress persists in the browser (localStorage).0 installs

Frequently asked questions about update-specification

What does the update-specification skill do?

Update an existing specification file for the solution, optimized for Generative AI consumption based on new requirements or updates to any existing code. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the update-specification skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install github-copilot-update-specification` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/github-copilot-update-specification/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does update-specification work with?

update-specification runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the update-specification skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use update-specification after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/github-copilot-update-specification` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the update-specification skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
