Is the Archcore Capture skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from archcore-ai/plugin. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Archcore Capture SkillProof Score?

7.2/10 — installs cleanly 4/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 6/10, docs & honesty 3/5.

How do I install Archcore Capture?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Archcore Capture with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Archcore Capture

Auto-classifies a documentation request into ADR/spec/doc/guide and writes it via the Archcore MCP server, with dedup and cross-linking.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 7.2/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 5, 2026 · abe9a34

⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (SKILL.md not found in repo tree). The test below is what we measured on Jul 14, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

This is a well-designed routing table (its explicit 'not capture -> use /archcore:decide or /archcore:plan' carve-outs are unusually crisp for this category), but the skill is inert on its own: every actual document write goes through mcp__archcore__create_document, a custom MCP server that ships as a separate third-party CLI you install via curl|bash from archcore.ai -- a dependency the capture SKILL.md file itself never mentions, only the repo's root README does.

What Archcore Capture does

Reads a routing table to decide whether a documentation request is a decision (ADR), a behavior contract others depend on (spec), reference material (doc), or a procedure (guide) -- or several at once for a full module -- then composes the type-specific template and persists it through Archcore's own MCP tools with duplicate-checking and relation-linking. Triggers when documenting a module, component, or system and the user doesn't want to pick the doc type themselves; explicitly routes decision-recording and feature-planning asks to sibling commands instead.

How to install Archcore Capture

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

Commands — how to trigger Archcore Capture

/capture Auto-classifies a documentation request into ADR/spec/doc/guide and writes it via the Archcore MCP server, with dedup and cross-linking.

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

Document the auth module for the team, not sure what type of doc
I need comprehensive docs for the payment system
Write a reference doc for our config system
