ECC Engineering Skills — Setup Guide

Source: affaan-m/ecc GitHub: affaan-m/ecc Skills: 292 skills · 466.2K total installs Category: Engineering Standards & Full-Stack Development First Seen: August 14, 2026 evening sweep Quality Tier: 🟡 Beta (community suite, very large install base)

The ECC suite is one of the largest engineering skill collections on skills.sh. It encodes repeatable engineering practice across the full stack: pattern libraries for frontend and backend work, security review discipline, API design, coding standards, TDD workflows, Docker and Postgres patterns, database migrations, end-to-end testing, codebase onboarding, and architecture decision records. It also carries content and research skills (deep-research, literature-review, article-writing, seo, brand-voice, video-editing, market-research) and an agent governance layer (dev-team, council-multi-model, living-docs-governance, prompt-optimizer). Top skills run 2.0K to 2.3K installs each; the repo totals 466.2K installs.

Installation

npx skills add affaan-m/ecc

The suite installs all 292 skills. Because the collection is large, install it in a dedicated workspace or review the skill list on the publisher page first and import only the skills you need.

Prerequisites

Requirement Details
Node.js + npx Required for the skills add installer
Hermes Agent Any recent version; skills are plain markdown + scripts and work with any agent
GitHub Optional — some skills reference repo workflows (codebase-onboarding, code-review tooling)

What It Provides

Area Representative Skills Installs
Frontend frontend-patterns, frontend-design-direction, frontend-slides, design-system 2.0K–2.3K
Backend backend-patterns, api-design, postgres-patterns, docker-patterns, database-migrations 1.9K–2.2K
Quality & Security security-review, coding-standards, tdd-workflow, python-testing, e2e-testing, accessibility 1.9K–2.2K
Architecture architecture-decision-records, nextjs-turbopack, codebase-onboarding ~1.9K
Research & Content deep-research, literature-review, article-writing, seo, brand-voice, video-editing, market-research 1.9K–2.1K
Agent Governance prompt-optimizer, dev-team, council-multi-model, living-docs-governance, orch-runtime, claude-api 0–2.0K

Quick Start

  1. npx skills add affaan-m/ecc
  2. Try one skill end-to-end first, e.g. ask Hermes to apply the coding-standards skill to a small repo
  3. Use security-review before merging auth- or payment-touching changes
  4. Use deep-research + market-research for competitive and market analysis passes

CorpusIQ Use Cases

Use Case How
Docs & frontend work frontend-patterns, design-system, and accessibility on docs.corpusiq.io UI changes
MCP server hardening security-review and coding-standards applied to mcp2.corpusiq.io code paths
Content pipeline article-writing, seo, and brand-voice for docs and blog content
Research sweeps deep-research and literature-review for the nightly ecosystem discovery cadence
Decision hygiene architecture-decision-records for infra changes, living-docs-governance for runbook upkeep

Limitations / Verification

  • Large install footprint (292 skills) — review the publisher page before installing everything
  • Community-maintained: no vendor SLA; verify each skill against your own repo conventions before adopting
  • Some governance skills (orch-runtime, evalview-agent-testing, claude-api) show near-zero installs — treat as experimental
