Use when asked to evaluate type design/invariants or explicitly asked to run the type-design-analyzer subagent.

UncategorizedView skill →

features-documentation

Use when user-facing features change. Ensures features documentation is updated. Pauses work if documentation has drifted, triggering documentation-audit skill.

UncategorizedView skill →

ipv6-first

IPv6 is THE first-class citizen. All code, tests, documentation, and configurations MUST be IPv6-first. IPv4 MAY be added only for legacy support as a second-class citizen.

UncategorizedView skill →

branch-discipline

Use before any code changes - hard gate ensuring work never happens on main branch, with proper feature branch creation from correct base

UncategorizedView skill →

inclusive-language

Use when writing code, documentation, or comments - always use accessible and respectful terminology

UncategorizedView skill →

issue-prerequisite

Use before starting ANY work - hard gate ensuring a GitHub issue exists, creating one if needed through user questioning

UncategorizedView skill →

autonomous-orchestration

Use when user requests autonomous operation across multiple issues. Orchestrates parallel workers, monitors progress, handles SLEEP/WAKE cycles, and works until scope is complete without user intervention.

UncategorizedView skill →

ci-monitoring

Use after creating PR - monitor CI pipeline, resolve failures cyclically until green or issue is identified as unresolvable

UncategorizedView skill →

clean-commits

Use when committing code - ensures atomic, descriptive commits that leave the codebase in a merge-ready state at every point

UncategorizedView skill →

code-architect

Use when asked for an architecture blueprint or explicitly asked to run the code-architect subagent.

UncategorizedView skill →

code-explorer

Use when asked to trace existing codepaths or explicitly asked to run the code-explorer subagent.

UncategorizedView skill →

code-reviewer

Use when explicitly asked to run the code-reviewer subagent or when another skill requires the code-reviewer agent card.

UncategorizedView skill →

conflict-resolution

Use when encountering merge conflicts - handle conflicts cleanly, verify resolution, and maintain code integrity

epic-management

Use for LARGE work requiring feature-level grouping. Creates epic tracking issues, manages related issues under a common label, tracks epic progress, and coordinates with milestones.

UncategorizedView skill →

error-recovery

Use when encountering failures - assess severity, preserve evidence, execute rollback decision tree, and verify post-recovery state

UncategorizedView skill →

feedback-triage

Use when receiving UAT feedback, bug reports, user testing results, stakeholder feedback, QA findings, or any batch of issues to investigate. Investigates each item BEFORE creating issues, classifies by type and priority, creates well-formed GitHub issues with proper project board integration.

UncategorizedView skill →

initiative-architecture

Use for MASSIVE work requests requiring multi-epic planning. Creates research spikes, documents all unknowns and decisions, builds resumable architecture documents, and structures work into epics and milestones.
