Skills Reference
LLPM implements the Agent Skills standard for reusable AI instruction sets. This means skills you create for LLPM can be used with other compatible systems like Claude Code.
LLPM includes 19 core skills organized into 6 categories:
| Category | Skills | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Planning | 5 | Project planning, requirements, timelines |
| Visualization | 3 | Architecture diagrams, dependency maps |
| Communication | 2 | Stakeholder updates, meeting agendas |
| Documentation | 3 | Markdown formatting, user stories, FAQs |
| Analysis | 3 | Risk detection, triage, gap analysis |
| Research | 3 | Web research, summaries, note synthesis |
How Skills Work
- Discovery: LLPM scans skill directories for
SKILL.mdfiles - Loading: Skills are parsed and registered in the system
- Activation: Enabled skills are injected into the AI’s system prompt
- Execution: The AI follows skill instructions when relevant

.skills/ | Project-specific skills | Medium |
| Built-in | Default LLPM skills | Lowest |
Skills with the same name are loaded based on priority (higher priority wins).
