Open Skills
Description
The improve-* family: senior-advisor Claude Code skills that audit a codebase (copy, prompts, error handling, analytics) and write self-contained plans any agent can execute. Never edits your code.

Open Skills
Senior codebase audits that end in executable plans.
Audit first. Exercise judgment once. Hand implementation to any capable agent.

**Open Skills is October's `improve-*` family for Claude Code.** Each skill audits one product-quality domain as a senior specialist, verifies every finding against the repository, and writes a prioritized, self-contained implementation plan.
The skills do not edit source code. They separate the work that needs judgment—understanding the system, deciding what matters, and specifying the fix—from the mechanical implementation that another agent can execute later.
Quickstart
Add the marketplace and install the skill you need:
/plugin marketplace add october-dev/open-skills
/plugin install improve-copy@open-skills
Then ask naturally:
Audit the user-facing copy in this repository.
The skill maps the relevant surface, audits it against a codified rule catalog, vets its own findings, and presents a leverage-ordered shortlist. You choose what should become an implementation plan.
Skill catalog
| Skill | Reviews | Example request |
|---|---|---|
| `improve-copy` | Error messages, empty states, labels, microcopy, tone, and casing | “Audit the UX writing.” |
