Repository represents the largest collection of official Anthropic-authored skill implementations available for study.\n\n## Library Mapping\n\n| Extractable Process | Library Status | Action | Existing Path | Target Placement |\n|-------------------|----------------|--------|---------------|------------------|\n| Cookbook Quality Framework | NEW | 4-step systematic review methodology | - | specializations/shared/quality-control-framework.js |\n| Brand Guidelines Automation | NEW | Corporate branding enforcement process | - | specializations/business/brand-guidelines-automation.js |\n| Financial Model Creation | NEW | DCF analysis and valuation workflows | - | specializations/business/financial-model-creation.js |\n| Financial Statement Analysis | NEW | Ratio calculation and trend analysis | - | specializations/business/financial-statement-analysis.js |\n| Professional Domain Skill Design | NEW | Enterprise-grade skill creation methodology | - | specializations/shared/professional-skill-design.js |\n| Input/Output Framework Design | NEW | Systematic I/O handling for data-intensive skills | - | specializations/shared/io-framework-design.js |\n\n## Plugin Marketplace Mapping\n\n| Plugin Idea | Marketplace Status | Action | Existing Plugin | Target Placement |\n|-------------|-------------------|--------|-----------------|------------------|\n| Enterprise Quality Control | NEW | Quality assurance automation with rubric scoring | - | plugins/a5c/marketplace/plugins/enterprise-quality-control/ |\n| Brand Compliance Suite | NEW | Corporate branding automation and validation | - | plugins/a5c/marketplace/plugins/brand-compliance-suite/ |\n| Financial Analysis Toolkit | NEW | Investment-grade financial modeling and analysis | - | plugins/a5c/marketplace/plugins/financial-analysis-toolkit/ |\n",
