What it does This repo ships 76 builder skills plus 76 matching reviewer skills for Claude — installable .skill files that generate the Excel deliverables automotive engineering demands. Coverage spans ISO 26262 functional safety, ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity, ISO 21448 SOTIF, AIAG-VDA quality (APQP/PPAP/FMEA), Automotive SPICE, AUTOSAR, diagnostics, calibration, MBSE, SysML, and V&V. Each builder produces structured xlsx output; each reviewer validates it and spits back a dashboard with KPI tiles and findings tables.

The interesting bit The “chain” design is the actual insight here: downstream skills consume upstream xlsx files as a file-format contract, so your HARA feeds your FSC feeds your TSC feeds your FMEDA without format drift. The builder+reviewer pairing is less about AI self-correction and more about forcing a second pass through a structured checklist — essentially automating the “did you actually fill this out right?” stage that junior engineers usually endure.

Key highlights

  • 152 total skills across 14 automotive engineering domains
  • Explicit chain dependencies: Item Definition → Safety Plan → DIA → HARA → FSC → TSC → HW/SW lanes → Safety Case
  • Reviewer skills output visual dashboards with charts and findings tables, not just pass/fail
  • Trigger by natural phrasing: “Build a HARA for a new ECU project — Electronic Stability Control”
  • Covers both Classic and Adaptive AUTOSAR, plus incident response plans with UN R155 / ENISA / NHTSA notification deadlines

Caveats

  • README is exhaustive on what each skill produces but silent on how well — no validation against real OEM acceptance criteria
  • The xlsx-as-contract approach assumes your toolchain tolerates Excel as a serialization format; your MBSE tool probably doesn’t
  • Requires Claude Desktop or Cowork; no mention of API usage or CI integration

Verdict If you’re an automotive safety engineer drowning in ISO 26262 paperwork, this is a structured prompt library that might actually save you weeks. If you’re not in automotive compliance, the specificity is almost alien — move along.
