Disciplined diagnosis loop for hard bugs and performance regressions. Reproduce → minimise → hypothesise → instrument → fix → regression-test. Use when user say… more

Build a throwaway prototype to flesh out a design — a runnable terminal app for state/business-logic questions, or several radically different UI variations tog… more

A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design, which also creates docs (ADR's and glossary) as we go.

Test-driven development. Use when the user wants to build features or fix bugs test-first, mentions "red-green-refactor", or wants integration tests.

Teach the user a new skill or concept, within this workspace.

Turn the current conversation into a PRD and publish it to the project issue tracker — no interview, just synthesis of what you've already discussed.

Move issues and external PRs through a state machine of triage roles — categorise, verify, grill if needed, and write agent-ready briefs.

Ask which skill or flow fits your situation. A router over the user-invoked skills in this repo.

Review the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along two axes — Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding stand… more

Shared vocabulary for designing deep modules. Use when the user wants to design or improve a module's interface, find deepening opportunities, decide where a se… more

Compact the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up.

Scan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.

Configure this repo for the engineering skills — set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the othe… more

Break a plan, spec, or PRD into independently-grabbable issues on the project issue tracker using tracer-bullet vertical slices.

Reference for writing and editing skills well — the vocabulary and principles that make a skill predictable.

Tell the agent to zoom out and give broader context or a higher-level perspective. Use when you're unfamiliar with a section of code or need to understand how i… more

Diagnosis loop for hard bugs and performance regressions. Use when the user says "diagnose"/"debug this", or reports something broken/throwing/failing/slow.

Build and sharpen a project's domain model. Use when the user wants to pin down domain terminology or a ubiquitous language, record an architectural decision, o… more

A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design.

Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design. Use when the user wants to stress-test a plan before building, or uses any 'grill' trigger phrases.
