Can I add my own custom reference lists?

Yes, you can customize the repositories the skill tracks by editing the seeds.tsv file located in the plugin's reference directory.

What is the purpose of the refs skill?

It synchronizes curated 'awesome' repositories to your local machine so Claude can search them to help you make informed design and architectural decisions.

How does this benefit the SDLC process?

It provides Claude with immediate access to community-standard patterns and tools, reducing the time spent researching and improving the quality of planning hub decisions.

How does it search through the reference repositories?

The skill uses Ripgrep for fast text-based searching and can also build a dedicated SQLite database for structured full-text search (FTS) queries.

Does this skill require an active internet connection?

An internet connection is only required to sync or update the repositories; once the data is local, all search and read operations work offline.
