Write or improve a README.md for an open source project. Use this for any request to create, generate, rewrite, review, or polish a README, GitHub repo page, project description, or "getting started" docs for a library, framework, CLI, or tool, or to make an open source project more popular or attractive to users (more GitHub stars, adoption, developer marketing). Do NOT use for internal/private repo docs, API reference generation, or CHANGELOG/CONTRIBUTING files.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'good-readme' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'good-readme' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named good-readme already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/evilmartians/agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'b964cf1b164bd0a81019fb54fcb11a7dcec522d4' -- 'skills/good-readme' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/good-readme' ~/.agents/skills/'good-readme' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'good-readme' ~/.claude/skills/'good-readme' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
