Code exploration strategies for understanding unfamiliar codebases. Use when exploring unknown code, debugging, or analyzing architecture.

Architecture design skill: ADR records, system design checklists, scalability assessment, architecture patterns. Use for complex system design and architecture decisions.

Strategic compaction skill: suggests context compression at logical breakpoints. Use to suggest compaction at logical intervals during development sessions.

Database design, query optimization, migrations, and indexing. Use when designing schemas, writing queries, or managing migrations.

DevOps patterns: containerization, CI/CD, deployment strategies, monitoring. Use when containerizing apps, setting up pipelines, or deploying services.

Backend development patterns for services, error handling, logging, and caching. Use when building backend services, APIs, or microservices.

Git version control best practices: branching, commits, merging, conflict resolution, and PR workflows. Use when managing branches, creating commits, merging code, or resolving conflicts.

Native app development strategies, including iOS/macOS (Apple platforms) and Tauri desktop apps. Use when developing native mobile or desktop applications.

Extracts reusable patterns from sessions. Use at session end to capture debugging insights and project-specific knowledge.

Testing strategies and methodologies including TDD and E2E testing. Use when writing tests, implementing TDD workflow, or setting up E2E test infrastructure.

Code quality assurance strategies. Parent skill for quality-related skills: security (security review) and debug (systematic debugging).

Research-before-coding workflow: systematically search existing solutions before custom implementation. Use when introducing new libraries, tools, or solving unfamiliar problems.

Cross-validate code, architecture or design decisions using a second model. Use for critical decisions, complex refactoring, security reviews.

Session lifecycle management. Parent skill for session-related skills: learning (pattern extraction) and compact (context compression).

RESTful API design patterns and best practices. Use when creating endpoints, designing APIs, or implementing routes.

Systematic debugging methods, log analysis, and performance diagnostics. Use when debugging issues, analyzing errors, or troubleshooting incidents.

Model selection strategy and routing. Use when choosing between models for different task types, subagent configurations, or optimizing token cost versus quality tradeoffs.

Security review skill: comprehensive security checklist and patterns. Use when adding authentication, handling user input, working with secrets, or creating API endpoints.

Frontend patterns cover component design, state management, performance, and accessibility. Apply them when building web frontends, components, or client-side applications.
