# Agent Skills

Julia keeps canonical project-local Agent Skills under `doc/src/devdocs/agents/skills/`. These files follow the Agent Skills `SKILL.md` format.

The `.agents/skills/` and `.claude/skills/` entries are symlinks to the canonical skills directory for automatic discovery by skills-aware agents. Do not edit through those discovery paths directly; edit the canonical `SKILL.md` under `doc/src/devdocs/agents/skills/`.

The documentation build renders each canonical `SKILL.md` with its Agent Skill metadata:

- `doctests` — writing and verifying `jldoctest` code blocks.
- `test-changes` — running and updating tests after changing them.
- `c-static-analysis` — Clang static analysis and GC-rooting for C/C++ changes under `src/`.
- `external-deps` — modifying external dependencies (`deps/`, patches) and JLLs.
- `buildkite-logs` — fetching and inspecting Buildkite CI logs without web sign-in.
- `ci-timing` — comparing a PR's Buildkite job durations against recent CI history.
- `compiler-jl` — developing and testing Compiler.jl.
- `julia-syntax-lowering` — developing and testing JuliaSyntax and JuliaLowering.
