Added
- cline-pilot (#1756) - orchestrates focused Cline CLI coding tasks, monitors long runs against repository and test evidence, relays decision points in a fixed format, and checks results against explicit acceptance criteria.
risk: critical, MIT, from gongdear/cline-pilot. - Web3 and AI agent engineering batches (#1752, #1753) - add 20 skills across decentralized application engineering, DeFi, blockchain operations, and AI agent development. The skills provide task-specific implementation and operational guidance with declared risk and safety limits.
- dropthehassle-publish (#1754) - adds the official DropTheHassle publishing skill for its documented publishing workflow.
Changed
- Reviewed fork bundle paths (#1760) - permit only exact, protected-ledger support paths for previously reviewed fork skill bundles, including root README and
.gitignore; all other path, content, and exact-head review gates remain in force. - waf-setup (#1755) - removes Syria from the example geo-block rule after the cited sanctions program ended, avoiding an obsolete production block example.
