headcount: 172 skills organized as a company org chart, now with a Chinese README
There is a specific kind of mess that shows up once you have more than about thirty prompts saved. You stop remembering what you have. Two prompts do nearly the same thing and you can't tell which one is current. You paste a whole "mega-prompt" into a session because you can't be bothered to find the right one, and half of it is irrelevant to the task. headcount is one answer to that. It arranges…
The "headcount" project organizes skills as a company org chart, with 16 departments and 172 skills. Each department functions as its own plugin, allowing projects to load only the necessary components. Skills are addressed using a department:skill naming convention, preventing name collisions across departments. The original repository, cbrock84/headcount, has 2,047 stars and is licensed under MIT.
A Chinese translation of the README exists at yangshun2005/headcount-cn. The project's design is driven by a constraint: the implementation of the 8,000-character context budget on the ChatGPT/Codex side. Installing only the required departments ensures compatibility with this constraint. The Chinese version of the README provides an additional layer of guidance for Chinese-speaking developers, addressing common questions and clarifying the installation process without introducing unnecessary requirements.
