Sibling Sync

FeaturedCategory: General  ·  Sub-category: automation  ·  Last updated:
Bilateral SYNERGY/UPSTREAM reconciliation across sibling projects. Use when the user wants to sync sibling SYNERGY/UPSTREAM files, compare both sides to surface drift, find reciprocation gaps (entries here but not there, or vice versa), flag stale-aligned rows, detect status drift across sides, surface friction the sibling tracks ABOUT this project (their UPSTREAM-<this-project>.md), or apply a reciprocation batch with --auto-reciprocate. Workflow 3 covers two UPSTREAM pairing modes: shared third-party dependencies AND reciprocal sibling-friction pairs (UPSTREAM-<sibling>.md here ↔ UPSTREAM-<this-project>.md there). NOT for logging entries on this side (use /synergy-tracker workflow 1 (Log a synergy entry)) — sibling-sync compares both sides without writing by default. NOT for upstream → project drift (use /vendor-sync); sibling-sync handles peer-to-peer drift between sibling vp-* projects. Trigger phrases: 'sibling sync', 'compare siblings', 'sync sibling', 'reconcile siblings', 'reciprocation gap', 'sync drift', 'bilateral sync', 'sync SYNERGY', 'sync UPSTREAM both ways', 'auto-reciprocate', 'check sibling drift', 'peer-to-peer drift', 'cross-project drift', 'sibling reconciliation', 'sibling has friction about us', 'what does the sibling say about us', 'reconcile sibling-tracked friction', 'reciprocal upstream friction', 'friction filed against this project', 'sibling follow-up', 'act on sibling drift', 'after sibling-sync', 'follow-up actions', 'what to do about sibling findings'.

From the source SKILL.md

Bilateral reconciliation of SYNERGY-.md and UPSTREAM-.md files between this project and its sibling vp-* projects. Read-only by default — surfaces drift, reciprocal gaps, stale-aligned rows, and status drift across sides without mutating anything. The opt-in --auto-reciprocate flag writes reciprocal entries to the sibling's SYNERGY file via per-entry confirmation.

What this skill does

Sibling Sync is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the automation sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/sibling-sync/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when the user wants to sync sibling SYNERGY/UPSTREAM files, compare both sides to surface drift, find reciprocation gaps (entries here but not there, or vice versa), flag stale-aligned rows, detect status drift across sides, surface friction the sibling tracks ABOUT this project (their UPSTREAM-<this-project>.md), or apply a reciprocation batch with --auto-reciprocate.

Who uses this skill

The Sibling Sync Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 70,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
