01data-breach-blast-radius
Pre-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.

Buildfrom GitHub Copilot04debian-linux-triage
Triage and resolve Debian Linux issues with apt, systemd, and AppArmor-aware guidance.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot05dependabot
Comprehensive 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.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot06desk-open
Create and open a new desk in the workshop. Sets up the folder structure, initial journal, and desk identity so the next session that sits down finds the trail.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot07devops-rollout-plan
Generate comprehensive rollout plans with preflight checks, step-by-step deployment, verification signals, rollback procedures, and communication plans for infrastructure and application changes
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot08doc-and-modernize
Two related workflows for a locally-cloned codebase, in one skill. Documentation mode produces a single, comprehensive, verifiable architecture document primarily by reading files on disk (local-first) — use it whenever the user wants to understand, map, document, research, or onboard onto a codebase ("research this repo", "write up the architecture", "do an architecture deep dive", "document how this codebase works", "map the system design", "create an onboarding doc"). Modernization mode generates a phased plan to modernize, migrate, upgrade, or rewrite a legacy system ("modernize this", "plan the migration", "how would we rewrite this", "how do we get off this legacy stack"); if no architecture document exists yet it first runs Documentation mode, then continues straight through to the plan. It assumes the legacy stack may be dead, runs a time-boxed feasibility spike, and picks the highest achievable rung on a safety ladder instead of demanding a fully-green legacy CI gate up front.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot09dotnet-design-pattern-review
Review the C#/.NET code for design pattern implementation and suggest improvements.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot10dotnet-mcp-builder
Build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in C#/.NET against the current ModelContextProtocol 2.x NuGet packages. Helps with cases the model gets wrong without guidance — stale versions (0.x preview or 1.x-era defaults), the v2 stateless-by-default HTTP flip, the 2026-07-28 spec deprecations (roots/sampling/logging), MCP Apps and Tasks extension packages, elicitation URL mode, per-session HTTP wiring, OAuth and reverse-proxy deploy specifics, and debugging MapMcp / STDIO / Streamable-HTTP errors. Also covers STDIO and Streamable HTTP transports (SSE is deprecated), tools, prompts, resources, completions, and a basic .NET MCP client. Trigger when the user says or implies any .NET MCP server work: ModelContextProtocol, McpServerTool, MapMcp, WithStdioServerTransport, "MCP server in C#", "MCP tool in dotnet", "expose this as MCP", or names a primitive (prompt/resource/elicitation/MCP App) in a .NET context. Skip for MCP work in other languages.
Buildfrom GitHub Copilot11doublecheck
