Agentskills

Agent Skills

The **ora** Claude Code plugin: two research agents, an MCP server, and two routing skills, written for Claude 5-class models.

Why ora

Agent frameworks built for weaker models compensate with many agents, hooks, and prescriptive step-by-step instructions. Modern models don't need that. ora ships only what the model can't already know — tool routing and empirical gotchas.

Operations are MCP tools rather than skills, because a tool gets called where a skill gets skipped, and its guidance travels in the response instead of a document read once at load time. What is left as a skill is only the routing between tools.

Two research agents isolate search from the main conversation:

• Ariadne — codebase exploration (semantic, keyword, and structural search across local files)
• Clio — external research (docs, repos, package registries)

Both isolate search context from the main conversation — broad queries never pollute your main window.

ora MCP tool	Purpose
ast_search	Search by AST pattern or inline YAML rule
outline	Symbols, exports and imports of a file or directory
lib_docs	Author-published llms.txt, with a page index when the corpus is huge
pkg_versions	Latest version and deprecation status via deps.dev
repo_fetch	Read one file from a public repo, or shallow-clone it

Skill	Purpose
code-search	Routes local search — fff keyword, morph semantic, LSP symbols
repo-research	Routes external repo research — morph, Sourcegraph, gh

Both live inside the plugin, so they update automati
