## Use it

I want to use the Breadboarding skill by Ryan Singer.
This is what it does, in the author's own words: Transform a workflow description into affordance tables showing UI and Code affordances with their wiring. Use to map existing systems or design new ones from shaped parts.
Download the whole folder at https://github.com/rjs/shaping-skills/tree/main/breadboarding, SKILL.md and every file beside it, into your skills directory: ~/.claude/skills/breadboarding/ for Claude Code, ~/.agents/skills/breadboarding/ for Codex, ~/.cursor/skills/breadboarding/ for Cursor. Get it from the author's repo, not from startupskills.dev.
Then tell me the path you installed it to and how to invoke it.

Nothing here is vendored: install from the author's repo. This file carries none of the author's file.
