gedcom-skills - A set of skills for working with gedcom data inside AI Agents like Claude.

[vaelen]

I know there are already a couple of projects like this, but I've created a set of skills for AI agents like Claude to work with gedcom data. The skills execute Python scripts for reading, searching, and updating gedcom files. Supports GEDCOM 5.5.1, 5.5.5, and FamilySearch GEDCOM 7.0+.
