Orchestrates the full DELIVER wave end-to-end (roadmap > execute-all > finalize). Use when all prior waves are complete and the feature is ready for implementation.

Rollback procedures, risk assessment, pre/post-deployment validation, and contingency planning. Load when orchestrating deployment or preparing rollback plans. For deployment strategy details (canary, blue-green, rolling), see `cicd-and-deployment` skill.

7 agentic design patterns with decision tree for choosing the right pattern for each agent type

Designs system architecture with C4 diagrams and technology selection. Routes to the right architect based on design scope (system, domain, application, or full stack). Two interaction modes: guide (collaborative Q&A) or propose (architect presents options with trade-offs).

Designs CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure, observability, and deployment strategy. Use when preparing platform readiness for a feature.

Generates C4 architecture diagrams (context, container, component) in Mermaid or PlantUML. Use when creating or updating architecture visualizations.

Conducts evidence-based product discovery through customer interviews and assumption testing. Use at project start to validate problem-solution fit.

Question-first approach to understanding user journeys. Load when starting a new journey design or when the discovery phase needs deepening.

4-phase discovery workflow with decision gates, phase transitions, success metrics, and state tracking

Conducts Jobs-to-be-Done analysis, UX journey design, and requirements gathering through interactive discovery. Use when starting feature analysis, defining user stories, or creating acceptance criteria.

Acceptance test creation methodology for the DISTILL wave. Domain knowledge for the acceptance designer agent: port-to-port principle, prior wave reading, wave-decision reconciliation, graceful degradation, and document back-propagation.

Generates 3-5 divergent design directions through JTBD analysis, competitive research, structured brainstorming, and taste evaluation before convergence. Use when the team has a validated problem but hasn't chosen a solution approach.

Review criteria for the nw-diverger-reviewer — validates JTBD rigor, research quality, option diversity, taste application correctness, and recommendation coherence in DIVERGE wave artifacts

DIVIO/Diataxis four-quadrant documentation framework - type definitions, classification decision tree, and signal catalog

Creates evidence-based documentation following DIVIO/Diataxis principles. Use when writing tutorials, how-to guides, reference docs, or explanations.

Strategic and tactical DDD patterns, bounded context discovery, context mapping, aggregate design rules, and decision frameworks for when to apply DDD

Definition of Ready checklist criteria, antipattern detection patterns, UAT quality rules, and domain language enforcement for product owner review

Critique dimensions, severity framework, verdict decision matrix, and review output format for documentation assessment reviews

Dispatches a single roadmap step to a specialized agent for TDD execution. Use when implementing a specific step from a roadmap.json plan.

Fast-forwards through remaining waves end-to-end without stopping for review between waves.

Archives a completed feature to docs/evolution/, migrates lasting artifacts to permanent directories, and cleans up the temporary workspace. Use after all implementation steps pass and mutation testing completes.

Toyota 5 Whys methodology with multi-causal branching, evidence requirements, and validation techniques

Creates new specialized agents using the 5-phase workflow (ANALYZE > DESIGN > CREATE > VALIDATE > REFINE). Use when building a new AI agent or validating an existing agent specification.
