product-surface-areas
Consolidated dependency graph of Inkeep customer-facing surface areas (UIs, CLIs, SDKs, APIs, protocols, config formats). Example use: as a prd-time (planning/brainstorming phase) or post-change checklist to understand the full scope of side-effects or what making one change to the product means for the rest. Use whenever you need to understand the "ripple" out effects of any change.

About this skill
Inkeep Product Surface Area Inventory
Overview
This is a consolidated inventory of customer-facing “surface areas”: anything a customer can directly use, interact with, or take a dependency on. Use it to conceptually understand the surface area of what one change may mean for the whole product (i.e. the entire feature dependency tree/propagation chain end-to-end).
Companion skills: For who is affected and how changes propagate per audience, load audience-impact. For internal/infra surfaces, load internal-surface-areas.

godot
bfollington

It provides specialized knowledge of Godot's file formats (.gd, .tscn, .tres), architecture patterns (component-based, signal-driven, resource-based), common pitfalls, validation tools, code templates, and CLI workflows. The `godot` command is available for running the game, validating scripts, importing resources, and exporting builds. Use this skill for tasks involving Godot game development, debugging scene/resource files, implementing game systems, or creating new Godot components.
nano-banana-pro
garg-aayush
Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.
pdf-to-markdown
aliceisjustplaying
Convert entire PDF documents to clean, structured Markdown for full context loading. Use this skill when the user wants to extract ALL text from a PDF into context (not grep/search), when discussing or analyzing PDF content in full, when the user mentions "load the whole PDF", "bring the PDF into context", "read the entire PDF", or when partial extraction/grepping would miss important context. This is the preferred method for PDF text extraction over page-by-page or grep approaches.
