Matt Pocock&rsquo;s Prototype skill inverts that. It treats a prototype as <strong>throwaway code that answers a single question</strong>, and it makes that throwaway-ness a hard rule instead of an accident. The skill ranks #12 on the skills.sh all-time leaderboard with about 34,000 weekly installs, inside the <a href="https://github.com/mattpocock/skills" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mattpocock/skills</a> family (223K stars) alongside <a href="https://topaiskills.com/skills/general/handoff/">handoff</a>, <a href="https://topaiskills.com/skills/general/grilling/">grilling</a>, and <a href="https://topaiskills.com/tutorials/guides/domain-modeling-procedural-guide/">domain-modeling</a>. I read the actual SKILL.md, LOGIC.md, and UI.md line by line, and the discipline is tighter than the one-liner suggests.</p>
