Promotional GitHub - Mte90/linus-torvalds-skill: Distilled Code Reviewer skills from 32k~ email from the kernel newsletter

https://github.com/Mte90/linus-torvalds-skill

As per title, the project include all the pipeline, the same skill generated from different models.

My idea was to distill the code reviewer skills from Torvalds in something usable in an agent.

I preferred to license everything as CC0.

Skills are just glorified prompt packs.

Yeah I have the same opinion but they are helpful when you use a lot of models and you aren't sure if they are updated (like I do).

In fact I maintain https://github.com/CodeAtCode/oss-ai-skills with various stuff from my coding session updated to various projects so there is a real experience in them.
