What it does

Project Maintainer is an agent skill from Pratiyush/llm-wiki. Maintain an llmwiki-style open-source project across the full framework pipeline. Use when the user says "maintain the project", "check my tasks", "update progress", "run phase gate", "do a monthly verify", "lint my wiki", "check stale entries", or invokes any form of ongoing project-keeping chore. Reads progress.md, tasks.md, docs/roadmap.md, and .github issues to figure out what's next and what's drifted.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering LLM wikis and Linting and formatting. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: LLM-powered knowledge base from your Claude Code, Codex CLI, Copilot, Cursor & Gemini sessions. Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern — implemented and shipped. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

The user says maintain the project
Update progress
Do a monthly verify
Check stale entries

Example prompts

“maintain the project”
“check my tasks”
“update progress”
“/project-maintainer”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Audits phase gates — are we in the right phase? Are the deliverables for the current phase complete?
Reconciles task tracking — keeps tasks.md, _progress.md, and GitHub issues in sync (the framework's "dual-tracking" rule).
Runs stale checks — flags content, links, and claims older than the stale threshold.
Triggers CI — re-runs the privacy grep, performance budget check, and link checker.
Reports next action — tells the user exactly what to do next and why.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b108889. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Project Maintainer loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 108 tokens; SKILL.md has 689 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~108
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

What this skill does

The Maintainer owns the full Open Source Framework v4.1 pipeline on a project. Given the current repo state, it:

Audits phase gates — are we in the right phase? Are the deliverables for the current phase complete?
Reconciles task tracking — keeps tasks.md, _progress.md, and GitHub issues in sync (the framework's "dual-tracking" rule).
Runs stale checks — flags content, links, and claims older than the stale threshold.
Triggers CI — re-runs the privacy grep, performance budget check, and link checker.
Reports next action — tells the user exactly what to do next and why.

It works for any project that follows the framework — not just llmwiki.

When to invoke

"Maintain the project" / "maintenance check" / "do a health check"
"Update progress" / "reconcile tasks" / "sync tasks"
"Check phase gate" / "can I move to the next phase"
"Lint the wiki" / "check for stale entries"
"Monthly verify" / "quarterly review"
Any time the user is unsure what to work on next

Framework phase awareness

Phase	The Maintainer's job in this phase
0 Capture	Verify `idea-brief.md` exists and names target users + the 10x mechanism
1 Validate	Verify scorecard /25 is in `_progress.md` and ≥20
1.25 Research	Verify `.temp/` has at least 10 cloned reference repos and `docs/research.md` exists with a gap matrix
1.5 Steering	Verify `_progress.md` has "Key Decisions" table filled in
1.75 Agent Survey	For agent-native tools — verify adapter compatibility matrix exists
2 Brand	Verify `README.md`, `LICENSE`, and badges are in place
3 Structure	Verify folder layout matches `docs/architecture.md`
4 Content	Track which `M` items in `docs/roadmap.md` are ✅ vs `[ ]`
5 Contribution	Verify `CONTRIBUTING.md`, PR template, issue templates, CI workflow
5.25 Adapter Flow	For agent-native tools — verify adapter contract doc + at least one community contribution example
5.5 Pre-Launch QA	Run the full QA checklist from `docs/framework.md`
6 Launch	Verify git tag + GitHub Release + social posts drafted
6.5 Self-Demo	Verify GitHub Pages workflow triggered and live URL returns 200
7 Grow	Track stars / forks / downloads week-over-week
7.5 Living Knowledge	Verify public wiki is updating on release
8 Maintain	Run monthly verification, merge PRs, update stale entries

Workflow

Locate the project root. Look for _progress.md in the current dir or its parents. If missing, tell the user this skill needs a project that follows the framework.
Read the state files:
- _progress.md — current phase + phase status table
- tasks.md — Kiro-style tasks with [ ]/[/]/[x]/[-] markers
- docs/roadmap.md — if present, the master MoSCoW table
- CHANGELOG.md — latest release
Audit each phase gate up to the current phase. For each phase marked done, verify the deliverable file exists and is non-empty. Report any gaps.
Reconcile task tracking:
- Are there items in tasks.md marked [x] but not in CHANGELOG.md?
- Are there open GitHub issues with no matching task in tasks.md?
- Are there tasks in tasks.md with no corresponding GitHub issue?
- If any drift — propose fixes before making any changes.
Run stale checks:
- Any last_updated in wiki frontmatter older than 30 days? Flag.
- Any source_file reference in wiki pointing to a file that no longer exists? Flag.
- Any entity page mentioned in 3+ sources but with its own last_updated older than the newest source? Flag.
- Any [[wikilink]] pointing to a non-existent page? Flag.
Run CI gates locally (if configured):
- Privacy grep: grep -r "<real_username>" site/ wiki/ must be empty
- Link check: python3 -m llmwiki lint-docs (when implemented)
- Performance budget: build time <15s, HTML <50MB

Write the report. Structure:

## Health report: <project> — <date>

**Phase:** <current phase> (<status>)

### ✅ Green
- <things that are fine>

### ⚠️ Yellow
- <minor drift that should be fixed soon>

### ❌ Red
- <broken gates that block progress>

### Next action
1. <specific thing the user should do next>
2. <second thing if any>

Offer to fix green issues automatically. For yellow/red, ask before touching anything.

Hard rules

Never silently update _progress.md. Always explain what changed and why.
Never close a GitHub issue without the user saying so.
Never overwrite tasks.md without showing the diff first.
Respect the framework's "one PR per concern" rule — if a fix spans multiple files, surface it as multiple suggestions, not one big patch.
Never auto-bump versions. Version bumps are a launch activity, not maintenance.

self-learn — when a new pattern emerges during maintenance, pipe it to self-learn to potentially add it to the framework.
llmwiki-query — when you need context from past sessions on why a decision was made.
llmwiki-lint — for wiki-specific lint work (overlaps with step 5).
