The parent skill of the ASCENT engineering framework. It scaffolds new projects, enhances existing ASCENT projects, and migrates non-ASCENT projects to ASCENT standards. One skill routes user intent across nine engineering roles at runtime — see [ADR-001](../../docs/framework/DECISIONS/ADR-001-single-parent-skill.md) for why one skill instead of nine.
Lloydbriantech Ascent is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the security-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/lloydbriantech-ascent/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
The Lloydbriantech Ascent skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 65,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
