First Maintainer Month

skill

Set up a new open-source project's first month so it can grow without eating its maintainer — the README that routes people correctly, CONTRIBUTING boundaries written before there are contributors, issue templates that pre-triage, a release rhythm, and the sustainability defaults (what you owe no one). Use when someone says 'my repo is getting attention', 'I just open-sourced something', 'set up my project properly', or their first PR from a stranger just landed. Produces the docs set, the templates, and the month-one routine.

Works with: Claude Code (native)  ·  Cursor, Codex CLI (manual)
native: this artifact type is that client's own format

Install (Claude Code):

cp -r first-maintainer-month ~/.claude/skills/

Security audit

Not scanned yet. We audit npm-published capabilities for known advisories, install-time scripts and permission surface; this one has no npm package we can resolve, or has not reached the queue.

Its own instructions

Its SKILL.md says when to use it.

Read from the capability’s own SKILL.md. This is not a grade and does not compare to the instruction-depth verdict on an MCP server — a skill has no tools to document, so that rubric does not apply to it.

You searched for one. Check the rest of your stack:

npx tashan-cli doctor

Reads the config already on your machine and names what is dead, deprecated or running code at install time. No account, nothing uploaded.

tashan Pro$6/mo

Pro adds the history to tashan doctor, so a run over your own config says which of yours gained an advisory, started running an install script, or lost its last maintainer — and what to move to.

Everything on this page is public evidence and free. What it cannot know is whether you run this — npx tashan-cli doctor reads your own config and names what is wrong in it, also free. tashan Pro tells you the day any of it changes.
