This PR introduces several new files, but it is very low-risk:

  • We're adding a core set of meta-skills (creating-skills, creating-prompts, creating-instructions, creating-agents) that will be discoverable / usable by our AI agents. Note that the skills are in a .claude directory. I'm putting them there for maximum compatibility with AI tools (.claude/skills will be discoverable by GH Copilot, OpenCode, and ClaudeCode agents alike... and probably others too).
  • We're adding a PromptEngineerV2 agent that leverages these meta-skills. The agent also has a series of test scenarios to ensure it's working as intended.
  • We're keeping the PromptEngineerV1 untouched for now. The PromptEngineerV2 is essentially a refactored / improved version of it that leverages meta skills instead of having its instructions inline.
  • We're deleting the old prompt-engineer chatmode (chatmodes are deprecated, and this was a primitive attempt that was already made obsolete by the PromptEngineerV1 agent).

I also completely rewrote our AGENTS.md and moved it to the root of the project. It was a mess and we were using it wrong.

Finally, I added / optimized an opencode.json file (+ instructions in our internal-docs folder) for those who would like to use it ;)
