Individual skill

contributor

End-to-end open source contribution workflow: from scanning issues to submitting PRs. Use this skill whenever the user wants to contribute to an open source project, find issues to fix, submit a pull request, fork a repo to contribute, fix a GitHub issue, or mentions 'open source contribution'. Also trigger when they provide a GitHub repo URL and ask about contributing, say things like 'help me submit a PR', 'find good first issues', 'I want to contribute to X', or mention fixing bugs in someone else's project.

# Contributor

Automated open source contribution workflow that takes you from a GitHub repo URL to merged PRs, with built-in safeguards against common contribution failures.

## Why this skill exists

Open source contributions fail for predictable reasons: fixing in the wrong layer (your PR gets closed because the maintainer preferred an upstream fix), colliding with other contributors, not following project conventions, or over-engineering a simple fix. This workflow prevents each of those failures through systematic pre-checks.

## Phase 1: Reconnaissance

Before writing any code, gather intelligence about the project and its contribution landscape.
