From the source SKILL.md

Take a single unit of work — a tracker issue or an ad-hoc "implement this" with no issue filed — code it test-first, open a PR, drive it to a clean review, and hand back. Never auto-merges unless --auto-merge is passed (then CI gates the merge — see Step 5). This is the orchestrator over the kit's building blocks: it delegates isolation to /rig-worktree, review to /rig-review, and the fix loop to /rig-review fix, so each concern lives in one place.

What this skill does

Rig Task is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the code-quality sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/rig-task/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Rig Task Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 168,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
