10 agent skills with 3.49M downloads form a full dev workflow, led by mattpocock/skills

A viral thread curates 10 agent skills totaling 3.49M combined downloads that supposedly cover the full product loop: plan pressure-testing (grill-with-docs), React best practices, Supabase/Postgres best practices, brainstorming, UI/UX polish, branding, interface refinement, SEO audit, browser automation, and shadcn.
The centerpiece is Matt Pocock's GitHub repo mattpocock/skills (263k stars, 22.2k forks), pitched as "skills for real engineers, not vibe coding." Unlike GSD, BMAD, or Spec-Kit, which own the whole process, these skills are deliberately small and easy to adapt, keeping control with the developer and making process bugs easier to resolve.
The proposed loop: pressure-test the plan → shape the system → build the interface → harden the database → polish the experience → audit discovery → run the workflow for real.
