[Unreleased]

Added

  • git-workflow 2.3.0: hunk-review skill for interactive terminal diff review sessions via the Hunk CLI — session discovery, hunk navigation, and batch inline commenting (adapted from modem-dev/hunk, MIT)
  • obsidian 1.3.0: today skill — prioritised daily briefing from TaskNotes, Google Calendar, Gmail, Linear, and GitHub; writes to today's Obsidian daily note
  • obsidian 1.3.0: weekly-review skill — structured weekly retrospective with completed tasks, shipped code, meetings, wiki learnings, and Linear progress; preserves user-written Reflection section on re-runs
  • obsidian 1.3.0: project-pulse skill — GitHub repository status snapshot categorised as Active / Dormant / Stalled; terminal output only
  • obsidian 1.3.0: ideas skill — opportunity mining across wiki, GitHub portfolio, stakeholder notes, and market trends; writes a structured ideas document to the vault
  • obsidian 1.3.0: update_daily_note.py script — configurable note create/update utility with --vault, --daily-dir, --template, --section-heading, and --anchor CLI flags; resolves config from CLAUDE.md keys and environment variables with auto-detection fallback
  • obsidian 1.3.0: all four new skills use a unified CLAUDE.md configuration system (obsidian_vault, obsidian_daily_dir, github_org, etc.) with environment variable overrides and vault auto-detection
  • education 1.5.0: explain-code skill — patient programming instructor that explains code structure and design decisions, adapts to student level (Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced), and generates exercises
  • gemini-bridge 1.1.0: analyze skill — delegates large-context or multimodal analysis to Gemini 2.5 Pro with automatic Claude-vs-Gemini routing guidance
  • gemini-bridge 1.1.0: compare skill — independent two-approach comparison via Gemini implementing the "propose with Claude, validate with Gemini" pattern
  • gemini-bridge 1.1.0: vision skill — transforms screenshots, mockups, diagrams, and PDFs into code or documentation using Gemini's multimodal capabilities
  • code-quality 3.1.0: ruff-check skill — lints and formats Python files via Ruff; activates on natural-language requests such as "lint my Python"
  • git-workflow 2.4.0: resolve-conflicts skill — semantic merge conflict resolution with 10-step workflow, test validation, and structured report; activates on "I have merge conflicts"
  • project-management 2.7.0: document-handoff skill — creates comprehensive pre-compact handoff documentation; activates on "prepare a handoff" or "context is getting too large"

[1.5.0] - 2026-05-01

Added

  • obsidian: LLM-Wiki workflow with four new skills — wiki-ingest, wiki-lint, wiki-migrate-file, wiki-query
  • obsidian: Configurable <wiki-root> placeholder (default Wiki/) with vault-level CLAUDE.md overrides for wiki_root and wiki_migration_cap
  • obsidian: Keywords wiki, knowledge-base, llm-wiki

Fixed

  • core: pdf-to-markdown skill — convert_vision_api referenced an undefined end_page in the header f-string, raising NameError after every Vision API run; fixed by computing end_page from start_page + pages_converted - 1
  • core: pdf-to-markdown skill — total_pages was reused for both the converted slice and the full PDF length; now derived separately via pdfinfo_from_path so the header reads "Pages: 5-10 of 247" instead of "5-10 of 6"
  • core: pdf-to-markdown skill — default Vision API model updated from the retired claude-sonnet-4-20250514 to claude-opus-4-7 for high-resolution image handling
