Inventory

⚠️ Staleness notice: This file is manually maintained and may not reflect recently added agents, skills, or instruction files. For a current machine-generated listing:

  • Agents: run pwsh scripts/update-metadata.ps1 and see basecoat-metadata.json
  • Instructions and skills: browse the instructions/ and skills/ directories directly

This catalog helps teams discover what exists in Base Coat and when to use it.

Name collisions between instructions and skills are allowed. If an instruction and skill share a name (for example, basecoat-10-core-architecture or basecoat-50-security-security), treat them as distinct assets and disambiguate by source path (instructions/ vs skills/) and type.
