+# Achilleon
+
+The open registry of **skills**, **agents**, and **prompts** that [Taskclan Intelligence](https://taskclan.com/intelligence) loads.
+
+Anyone can raise a pull request. Every entry lives as a single YAML file with a strict schema. CI validates on push; approved entries ship to Taskclan Intelligence in the next release.
+
+## What is here
+
+Three kinds of entries live in this repo:
+
+| Kind | What it is | Where it runs |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Skill** | A single slash command with a fixed system prompt and tier binding | Inside `@taskclan` on the [VS Code extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=taskclan.taskclan-intelligence) and (eventually) the CLI + web playground |
+| **Agent** | A named chat participant with a locked personality (`@taskclan-reviewer`, `@taskclan-guru`, ...) | VS Code chat |
+| **Prompt** | A parameterised prompt template loaded by key from the Taskclan SDK | Anywhere the SDK runs |
+
+## Directory shape
+
+```
+schema/                    JSON Schema for each entry kind
+  skill.schema.json
+  agent.schema.json
+  prompt.schema.json
+skills/                    One YAML per skill
+  debug.yml
+  review.yml
+  ...
+agents/                    One YAML per agent
+  taskclan-reviewer.yml
+  ...
+prompts/                   One YAML per prompt template
+scripts/                   Local validation + tooling
+  validate.mjs
+.github/workflows/         CI (schema validation runs on every PR)
+```
+
+## Contributing
+
+Full guide in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md). Quick version:
+
+1. Fork this repo.
+2. Add a YAML file under `skills/`, `agents/`, or `prompts/`.
+3. Copy the shape from a nearby example. Fields are enforced by JSON Schema; CI tells you what to fix.
+4. Run `npm run validate` locally to catch schema errors before pushing.
+5. Open a PR. A maintainer reviews for quality and safety.
+6. When it merges, your entry ships to every Taskclan Intelligence surface in the next release.
+
+## Use these skills in ANY AI editor
+
+Achilleon skills are just system prompts. They work anywhere you can paste a prompt or install a slash command. Every push to `main` auto-generates ready-to-use bundles under `dist/`.
+
+### Cursor
+
+Grab the master rules file and paste the sections you want into your `.cursorrules` (or into Cursor's Settings → Rules).
+
+    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/cursor/.cursorrules
+
+The file's top comment explains why you should NOT copy the whole thing at once (it dilutes every reply). Pick the sections that match how you actually work.
+
+### Continue.dev
+
+Merge the generated `customCommands` block into your `~/.continue/config.yaml`:
+
+    curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/continue/config.yaml
+
+Every skill becomes a `/name` command in Continue's chat.
+
+### Claude Code
+
+Drop the pre-built command files into any project's `.claude/commands/` directory:
+
+    mkdir -p .claude/commands
+    curl -sSL https://github.com/taskclan/achilleon/archive/main.tar.gz \
+      | tar -xz --strip-components=3 -C .claude/commands \
+        'achilleon-main/dist/claude-code/commands'
+
+Claude Code auto-registers each file as a slash command. `debug.md` → `/debug`.
+
+### Windsurf
+
+    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/windsurf/.windsurfrules
+
+Drop it at your project root or paste selected sections into Windsurf's Rules panel. Same annotated-master-file approach as Cursor; pick what you use.
+
+### Cline (VS Code)
+
+    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/cline/.clinerules
+
+Cline appends this to the system prompt on every task. Pick sections; do not dump everything.
+
+### Zed
+
+Two install options:
+
+    # 1. Workspace-wide rules
+    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/zed/.rules
+
+    # 2. Per-skill slash commands (Zed AI Assistant reads ~/.config/zed/prompts/)
+    curl -sSL https://github.com/taskclan/achilleon/archive/main.tar.gz \
+      | tar -xz --strip-components=3 -C ~/.config/zed/prompts \
+        'achilleon-main/dist/zed/prompts'
+
+### Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Perplexity, or anywhere else
+
+Skills are also emitted as plain markdown you can paste into any system-prompt / custom-instruction field:
+
+    # Browse the raw prompts
+    open https://github.com/taskclan/achilleon/tree/main/dist/raw
+
+    # Or grab one
+    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/taskclan/achilleon/main/dist/raw/debug.md
+
+### Taskclan Intelligence VS Code extension (first-party)
+
+If you install [`taskclan.taskclan-intelligence`](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=taskclan.taskclan-intelligence) from the VS Code Marketplace, you get every skill wired as `@taskclan /<name>` with T1 routing baked in. The extension pulls Achilleon at build time so new entries land in the next release automatically.
+
+## How the wiring works
+
+Every entry lives once, in a YAML file. On every push to `main`, CI runs `npm run export` and regenerates every editor-specific bundle under `dist/`. Contributors PR the YAML; the bundles regenerate automatically. See `scripts/export.mjs` for the transformation logic; new export targets are welcome.
+
+## Why open
+
+Prompt engineering is empirical. The best system prompt for `/debug` in Rust is not the same as the best one for Python. The best `/refactor` for a React codebase differs from a Django one. A single team shipping one system prompt for everyone is always wrong somewhere. Achilleon lets the community shape the prompts alongside us, and the schema keeps quality high without needing to gatekeep every improvement.
+
+## License
+
+MIT. See [LICENSE](LICENSE).
+
+## Naming
+
+Achilleon: a temple to Achilles. This is a temple to skills.
