Delete the four skills in deprecated/ — design-an-interface, qa,
request-refactor-plan, ubiquitous-language — each already absorbed by a
promoted skill. The bucket itself stays, now empty: a retired skill is
deleted, and the changeset that removes it names its replacement.
Delete edit-article and obsidian-vault along with the personal/ bucket.
obsidian-vault hardcoded a path to Matt's own vault and was
model-invocable, so any skills.sh user could have had it fire on them.
None of the six was in the plugin, but skills.sh serves every SKILL.md in
the repo, so all six were installable — hence the changeset.
Reframe in-progress/ from scratchpad to beta channel: public on purpose,
feedback wanted, not in the plugin, and installable one skill at a time
through skills.sh. Nothing there is deleted or graduated.
Drop qa from the two live docs that cited it as an issue-tracker skill.
ADR 0002 is left untouched — it records reasoning that was true when
decided.

- install-block.md: state the invariant as a requirement rather than
as already-true (docs/ is brought into line downstream); mark all
three canonical snippets, not just the Claude Code one; pin the
`skills@latest` spelling; restore the `setup-matt-pocock-skills`
instruction the whole-set form carries; cite the docs source for
the auto-update claim.
- writing-docs.md: say plainly that the template's Quickstart is the
older wording, so the file no longer contradicts itself.
- CLAUDE.md: split the paragraph, stop restating the fallback rationale.
- ADR 0002: record what was actually verified, on which version, and
the two things that were not — the pinned sha in the official
listing, and the in-session slash command.

mattpocock-skills is now listed in Claude Code's official marketplace,
so the own-marketplace route is superseded. The queued changeset still
documented it, and changeset bodies ship verbatim into CHANGELOG.md —
the release would have published a superseded install route as its
headline.
- Rewrite .changeset/ship-as-claude-plugin.md around
`claude plugins install mattpocock-skills`.
- Add .agents/install-block.md as the single source for install
wording, so the docs pass has one true thing to copy.
- Point .agents/writing-docs.md and CLAUDE.md at it.
- Note the official listing in ADR 0002, and record that it reads
plugin.json directly and does not depend on marketplace.json.
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json is kept as a fallback for direct-repo
installs; nothing in CI or scripts references it.

Executes the `unify-to-tickets` decision (personal-wiki #23), reworking
this PR from "add /to-plan" into the full planning-skills unification.
- Rename /to-prd → /to-spec. "spec" is now the single through-line term
(the skill still opens with "you may know this document as a PRD" for
discoverability).
- Merge /to-plan + /to-issues into one /to-tickets skill; delete
/to-issues. /to-tickets emits a set of tickets, each declaring its
blocking edges — one medium-agnostic artifact that reads as a
sequential plan (local `tickets.md`, edges as text) or a parallelizable
DAG (real tracker, native blocking links). The edges live in the ticket
either way; the medium only decides whether anything acts on them in
parallel.
- ask-matt now routes idea → /to-spec → /to-tickets → /implement.
- Sweep every cross-reference (docs pages, chain diagrams, CONTEXT.md,
ADRs, .agents, setup templates) to the new names and vocabulary.
- Rewrite the changeset to describe the unification.

The build chain now ends at code-review. Update every flow doc that draws
the chain so it reads end-to-end:
grill-with-docs → to-prd → to-issues → implement → code-review
- grill-with-docs / to-prd / to-issues: extend the diagram; point the
downstream neighbour at implement (which drives tdd internally).
- tdd: reframe from "final step" to the engine inside implement's step.
- implement: extend the diagram to include the review pass.
- ask-matt: narrate the flow ending in review (docs) and note that
/implement closes out with /code-review (SKILL.md).
- writing-docs guide: refresh the example chain.

misc/ skills are no longer installable via the plugin or listed in the
top-level README — they join personal/ as kept-but-unshipped. Only
engineering/ and productivity/ are promoted now.
- Drop the Misc section from the top-level README.
- Reclassify misc/ as non-promoted in CLAUDE.md (README/plugin rule,
bucket-README grouping rule, docs-page rule) and the writing-docs guide.
- Note the non-promoted status in the misc bucket README.
plugin.json already omitted misc, so no manifest change was needed.
No SKILL.md context pointer referenced a misc skill, so nothing else
had to move.

misc/ skills are niche — they stay promoted (README + plugin manifest,
so they're installable) but no longer get a public aihero.dev docs
page. Remove the four misc pages and decouple the docs rule from the
promotion rule in CLAUDE.md and the writing-docs guide.

The repeated "The load-bearing constraint:" opener on every page read
as an agent tell. Strip the label across all skill pages and let the
constraint stand as a plain declarative sentence; update the
writing-docs template so it isn't regenerated.

- Replace the inline "watch for the leading words" line with an
optional `## It's working if` section — a short list of observable
signals the skill is doing its job. Keeps observability from being
hammered onto leading words specifically.
- Build out to-prd's "What the PRD includes" with proper casing and a
one-line explainer per section.

Reframe docs pages around cognitive-load relief: most skills are
user-invoked, so the human is the index that must remember when to
reach for each one. Each page's job is to make one skill memorable
and situate it in the system.
Template changes (.agents/writing-docs.md):
- Quickstart block: install + `npx skills update`, install-first
- New `## When to reach for it` (invocation mode + trigger boundary)
- New optional `## Prerequisites` (workspace/state, prior setup, tooling)
- Free-form middle with one firm rule: surface the leading word
(also an observability signal in the agent's output)
- `## Where it fits`: role-based, absorbs "Pairs well with", links ask-matt
- No H1; every cross-link absolute
Nest docs under bucket folders (docs/<bucket>/<name>.md); the
published URL stays skills-<name> regardless. Re-sync to-prd as the
worked exemplar.
