# Journalism agent skills A collection of Agent Skills for journalists, researchers, academics, media professionals, and communications practitioners. The same repository serves Claude Code and Codex while keeping Claude-only commands, agents, and hooks clearly labeled. **Docs site:** [skills.amditis.tech](https://skills.amditis.tech) — interactive skill browser, setup guides, and full documentation. ## Guides Setup and workflow guides, separate from the skills themselves: | Guide | Description | |-------|-------------| | [Autonomous and hands-on dev work](https://skills.amditis.tech/autonomy/) | A first-person account of running dev work with Claude in two modes — autonomous sessions that pull tasks off GitHub issues, and hands-on multi-agent reviews at the keyboard — held to one quality bar, with copy-able prompts to adapt the approach to your own agent | | [Multi-agent workflows](https://skills.amditis.tech/workflows/) | Plain-language guide to running many AI agents on one job — fan-out, pipeline, and adversarial-verify patterns, with real examples from ICIJ, The Markup, Full Fact, and Elicit, plus honest cautions | | [Persistent sessions](https://skills.amditis.tech/persistent-sessions/) | Keep Claude Code sessions alive through disconnects using tmux — setup, key bindings, activity notifications, and scheduler coexistence | ## What are agent skills? Skills are modular instruction sets that an AI coding agent loads when relevant to a task. Each skill contains domain knowledge, workflows, templates, and supporting files. Shared skills in this repository follow the [Agent Skills specification](https://agentskills.io/specification); Claude and Codex provide their own installation and runtime layers around that shared content. ## Installation Choose the section for your client. During the Codex pilot, use only one Codex installation path for a given skill or package. ### Claude Code **Prerequisite:** You need [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview) installed. Run `claude --version` in your terminal to check. #### Plugins (recommended) Plugins give you slash commands you can run directly inside Claude Code. Run these two commands inside a Claude Code session: ``` /plugin marketplace add jamditis/claude-skills-journalism /plugin install pdf-playground@claude-skills-journalism ``` Then restart Claude Code (close and reopen). See the [PDF Playground README](./pdf-playground/) for detailed setup instructions and troubleshooting. **Available plugins:** | Plugin | Description | Commands | Updated | |--------|-------------|----------|--------| | [autocontext](./autocontext/) | Cross-session knowledge persistence with skill evolution. Lessons accumulate per-skill, and `/autocontext:evolve` folds them back into skill files | `/autocontext:setup`, `/autocontext:init`, `/autocontext:review`, `/autocontext:status`, `/autocontext:evolve` | Apr 27, 2026 | | [dev-toolkit](./dev-toolkit/) | Eleven development-focused skills for journalists, researchers, and small newsroom dev teams: accessibility (WCAG 2.2), Electron app patterns, mobile/remote debugging, irreversible-decision discipline, Python data pipelines, test-first bug fixing, AI-assisted development workflows, ethical web scraping, no-build frontend patterns, signs-of-taste guidance for web UI, and CLAUDE.md context maintenance | n/a — skills only | Jul 21, 2026 | | [journalism-core](./journalism-core/) | Fourteen core journalism skills, including AP-style writing, AI-slop detoxing, source verification (deepfakes/C2PA), FOIA + NJ OPRA requests, fact-checking, interview prep + transcription, story pitches, editorial workflow, crisis communications, newsletter publishing with current Gmail / Yahoo / Outlook bulk-sender requirements, and embedded photo metadata for wire distribution | n/a — skills only | Jul 25, 2026 | | [okf-wiki](./okf-wiki/) | Scaffold an Open Knowledge Format (OKF) knowledge base: one-concept-per-file markdown with YAML
