Skills were nested under ui/goose2/ after the repo merge, making them invisible to Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex at the workspace level. Move the canonical files to .agents/skills/ at the root and add symlinks for each tool (.cursor/skills/, .claude/skills/, .codex/skills/).

User Impact: Agent skills (code-review, create-pr, edge-case-finder, create-app-e2e-test) are now discoverable by Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex from the workspace root.
Problem: After the goose2 repo was merged into goose, the agent skills ended up nested under
ui/goose2/, which is too deep for Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex to discover at the workspace level. Contributors using these tools couldn't access the shared skills.Solution: Moved the canonical skill files to
.agents/skills/at the repo root and added symlinks for each tool's expected directory (.cursor/skills/,.claude/skills/,.codex/skills/). Replaced the blanket.claudegitignore with a targeted ignore for.claude/settings.local.jsonso that shared skills are tracked while personal Claude Code config stays local.File changes
.agents/skills/code-review/SKILL.md
Moved from
ui/goose2/.agents/skills/— no content changes..agents/skills/create-app-e2e-test/SKILL.md
Moved from
ui/goose2/.agents/skills/— no content changes..agents/skills/create-pr/SKILL.md

Moved from
ui/goose2/.agents/skills/— no content changes..agents/skills/edge-case-finder/references/edge-case-categories.md
Moved from
ui/goose2/.agents/skills/— no content changes..cursor/skills/, .claude/skills/, .codex/skills/
Symlinks pointing to the canonical files in
../../.agents/skills/for each of the four skills..gitignore
Replaced the blanket
.claudeignore with.claude/settings.local.jsonso that.claude/skills/is tracked normally while personal Claude Code config stays out of version control.How to verify
.cursor/skills/code-review/SKILL.mdresolves (e.g.cat .cursor/skills/code-review/SKILL.md)..claude/skills/and.codex/skills/.ui/goose2/.agents/skills/no longer exists.git add .claude/skills/new-skillworks without-f.
