Create technical implementation plans and architecture designs. Use when someone needs a detailed technical approach before coding begins — "create a plan", "plan this ticket", "how should we implement this", "technical design", "architect this", "design the approach", "plan the migration", "refactor plan", "how should we structure this", or when shaped work or a groomed ticket needs a concrete im

Assess what's needed to make feedback loops autonomous in a repo. Use when someone says "loop check", "what do I need to work autonomously", "check my feedback loops", "what's manual here", "what should I automate", "can an agent iterate here", or before starting work in an unfamiliar repo to understand what's missing for autonomous iteration. Also use when the user asks "what do you need to make

Use for product decisions, user behavior analysis, and UX evaluation. Trigger when the user wants to: evaluate whether to build a feature or buy a solution, analyze why users drop off or don't convert or don't upgrade, assess a competitor's product or feature, review onboarding or checkout or any user-facing flow, explore a live site or localhost URL to give product feedback, think through growth

Capture and enforce a product's visual design language — principles and patterns that make it feel like itself. Use when the user wants to: distill design inspiration into a durable reference ("capture this design from figma", "distill this screenshot", "extract our design language", "capture design direction"), or check an implementation against the product's design language ("review design fidel

Execute code changes from an implementation plan. Use when someone says "implement this", "build this", "code this", "start building", "let's implement", "execute the plan", "make the changes", "do the work", or has an approved implementation plan ready for coding. Takes implementation plans and produces working code, phase by phase with verification.

Validate whether a product idea is worth building before committing engineering investment. Use when someone says "should we build this", "validate this idea", "discovery", "run an experiment", "test this hypothesis", "what are the risks", "is this worth building", "feasibility check", "prototype plan", or when a team has a shaped feature or product idea and needs to assess risks and design experi

Break down complex products, features, or systems into fundamental primitives and building blocks from a software creator's perspective. Use when starting a new application, designing a large feature, or needing to understand a complex system's moving parts before building. Trigger phrases: "break down X", "decompose this", "what are the primitives", "building blocks of Z", "map the architecture",

Browser-based QA verification after any implementation. Use when someone says "QA this", "test this in browser", "verify the feature", "qa test", "browser test", or after completing an /implement-change to verify acceptance criteria in a real browser. Opens Chrome via MCP, exercises each acceptance criterion, verifies via DOM snapshots, and reports pass/fail. The "closer" for every implementation

Harvest course-corrections from the current conversation and convert them into durable fixes so the agent doesn't need the same steer next time. Use when someone says "tighten the loop", "tighten loop", "debrief this session", "session debrief", "what should I update so next time you don't…", "how can I make your life easier", "what tripped you up", "what slowed you down", or at the end of a sessi

Shape rough ideas into clear, actionable work definitions. Use this skill whenever someone has an unstructured idea that needs to become a concrete work definition — feature requests, bug reports, PRDs, customer feedback, Slack threads, stakeholder asks, or vague "we should do X" statements. Trigger phrases include "shape this", "scope this", "write a PRD", "define this work", "turn this into a ti

Use for cross-domain strategic reasoning, approach selection, and systems-level analysis. Trigger when the user wants to: think through how to approach a problem, evaluate tradeoffs between architectural or technical approaches, sanity-check a plan or direction, understand second-order effects of a decision, get a holistic view across code/org/time dimensions, or pressure-test assumptions. The cor
