M. Collina Node Skills - Setup Guide¶

Source: mcollina/skills GitHub: mcollina/skills Skills: 12 skills · 52.4K total installs Category: Node.js / Backend First Seen: catalogued August 17, 2026 evening sweep (fastify-best-practices on skills.sh since January 31, 2026) Quality Tier: 🟢 Production - authored by Matteo Collina (Fastify lead, Node.js TSC member); flagship passes all three security audits (3/3 Pass)

Matteo Collina's personal skill pack encodes two decades of Node.js core expertise: Fastify architecture patterns, Node.js core internals, and TypeScript discipline. fastify-best-practices at 36.4K installs is the canonical Fastify reference for coding agents, straight from the framework's own author.

Installation¶

npx skills add mcollina/skills

Individual skills install with the explicit repo form:

npx skills add https://github.com/mcollina/skills --skill fastify-best-practices

Prerequisites¶

Requirement	Details
Node.js + npx	For the skill installer
Fastify or Node.js project	For backend guidance; TypeScript optional for typescript-magician

What It Provides¶

Skill	Installs	Purpose
fastify-best-practices	36.4K	Plugins, route handlers, TypeScript type stripping, `inject` testing, validation, serialization, error handling
node	4.8K	Core Node.js patterns and runtime guidance
typescript-magician	2.1K	TypeScript type-level patterns and tricks
nodejs-core	1.5K	Node.js core module internals
documentation	1.4K	API and project documentation workflows
oauth	1.1K	OAuth flows and implementation patterns
skill-optimizer	1.1K	Refining agent skills themselves
init / octocat / linting-neostandard-eslint9 / snipgrapher / node-best-practices	≤1K	Project init, GitHub automation, ESLint 9 flat config, snippet extraction, Node guidance

The flagship includes a runnable minimal Fastify server scaffold with logger: true and covers the testing path via Fastify's built-in inject method - the author's own preferred patterns.

Quick Start¶

Install: npx skills add mcollina/skills
Ask: "scaffold a Fastify service following fastify-best-practices"
The skill walks plugins, validation, and inject-based tests

CorpusIQ Use Cases¶

Use Case	How
Backend authoring	The canonical Fastify reference for any agent-built Node service
Skill authoring	skill-optimizer improves our own skill drafts before they ship
Node.js depth	nodejs-core fills gaps when agents work below framework level

Integration with CorpusIQ¶

CorpusIQ is the connector layer that lets AI assistants read the systems a business already runs on - accounting, payments, CRM, email, files and analytics - and answer with the source named. It is read-only by design: it retrieves data and never writes to, or acts in, a connected system, which is what makes it safe to point at live accounts.

This page is part of the CorpusIQ directory, the reference we maintain for the MCP server and agent-skill ecosystem. Run alongside CorpusIQ, a third-party server like this one can be combined with a company's own business data in a single answer.

Limitations / Verification¶

Security audits on fastify-best-practices: Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass, Socket Pass, Snyk Pass - all three clean
Publisher-page total verified (52.4K across 12 skills); repo at 1.9K GitHub stars
Fastify-focused - best for backend and API work, not frontend
Six of twelve skills are sub-1.1K installs - the suite's weight sits in fastify-best-practices and node

npx skills add mcollina/skills   # verify install works
