test-generation
Use when generating tests for new or existing code to improve coverage - provides a structured workflow for analyzing code, creating tests, and validating coverage goals.
test-review
Review test quality and audit test coverage for any module. This skill should be used when reviewing existing tests, auditing test gaps, writing new tests, or when asked to assess test health. It pipelines testing standards into the audit workflow to produce a prioritized gap report. The output is a report, not code — do not write test implementations until the report is reviewed.
testing-skills-with-subagents
Use when creating or editing skills, before deployment, to verify they work under pressure and resist rationalization - applies RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle to process documentation by running baseline without skill, writing to address failures, iterating to close loopholes
token-efficiency
Compressed communication using symbols and abbreviations. Use when context is limited or brevity is needed.

verification-before-completion
Use when about to claim work is complete, fixed, or passing, before committing or creating PRs - requires running verification commands and confirming output before making any success claims; evidence before assertions always
system-design
Use when designing system architecture, APIs, components, or data models - provides a structured design workflow with validation and documentation outputs.
multi-specialist-review
User-triggered multi-agent code review. Spawns 3-5 parallel specialist sub-agents that read actual source files, runs mechanical citation verification, and synthesizes a single review artifact. Use for PR-level changes, multi-commit ranges, or security-sensitive work where single-turn review is insufficient.
product-manager
Use this skill when writing product requirements documents, prioritizing features, creating user stories, defining acceptance criteria, or setting product metrics. Trigger phrases: ''write a PRD for'', ''prioritize this feature backlog'', ''write user stories for'', ''help me define acceptance criteria'', ''what metrics should we track for''. Not for writing code, designing UI mockups, or conducting user research interviews.
proofreader
Use this skill when reviewing written content for grammar, spelling, punctuation, style consistency, and tone—before publishing, submitting, or sending. Trigger phrases: ''proofread this'', ''check my writing'', ''review this for errors'', ''edit this email/report/essay''. Do NOT use when structural rewrites or content changes are needed—proofreading fixes surface errors, not substantive problems.
regex-master
Use this skill when building, explaining, or debugging regular expressions for pattern matching, validation, or text extraction. Trigger phrases: ''write a regex'', ''match this pattern'', ''validate this format'', ''extract from text''. Not for natural language parsing or full grammar parsing (use a parser instead).
release-analysis
>-
storyteller
Use this skill when writing fiction, narrative nonfiction, brand stories, or any content where emotional engagement and narrative arc matter more than pure information delivery. Trigger phrases: ''write a short story'', ''tell my brand''s origin story'', ''write a narrative about'', ''create a character''. Do NOT use for purely informational content, technical writing, or persuasive copy without a narrative component.
template-skill-enhanced
Enhanced skill template with progressive disclosure, bundled resources, and quality rubrics. Use when creating new skills that need structured tiers, reference files, validation rubrics, or advanced bundling patterns beyond the basic template.
terms-of-service
Use this skill when you need to draft Terms of Service, a Privacy Policy, or an End-User License Agreement (EULA) for a web application, SaaS product, or mobile app. Produces comprehensive, plain-English legal documents that cover user rights, data practices, liability limits, and dispute resolution. Not a substitute for a licensed attorney; have a lawyer review before publishing for a production product.
ui-ux-review-suite
User-triggered orchestrator that runs a comprehensive UI/UX review by coaching the user through four sibling skills as distinct lenses against one shared target, then synthesizing their findings into a single prioritized report. Composes user-journey-mapping (flow/funnel lens), ui-design-aesthetics (visual critique lens), interaction-design (state-coverage lens), and ux-review (usability-heuristics + WCAG lens). Resolves the review target once at suite start — the app/URL, the screens or flows under review, the viewports, and the user persona/goal — so every lens inherits the same scope and captured screenshots. Coaches rather than auto-runs — at each step it presents the next lens with its reframing prompt and an approval gate; the user invokes the sibling and confirms before moving on. Because the lenses overlap (ux-review already touches interaction and a11y), the suite scopes each lens to its distinct concern so the synthesis does not double-count. Produces one authored synthesis report — deduped findings grouped by severity and lens — not a navigation shell. Trigger on "run a full UX review," "comprehensive UI/UX review," "review this screen across all lenses," "do a complete design review," or when the user names two-or-more UI/UX lenses to coordinate. Not for running a single lens in isolation (invoke it directly), not for generating new UI (the generative siblings are reframed as critique here), and not for bypassing approval gates (this skill coaches, never autoruns).
ux-interaction-review
Combined UX and interaction design review: usability heuristics, state coverage, feedback patterns, timing, keyboard behavior, error recovery, and progressive disclosure. Use when reviewing how an interface works mechanically and whether interactions are well-designed for use.
ux-researcher
Use this skill when planning or conducting user research, writing interview guides, designing surveys for UX insights, synthesizing qualitative findings, creating personas, or writing research reports. Trigger phrases: ''write a user interview guide'', ''how do I conduct usability testing'', ''synthesize research findings'', ''create a user persona'', ''design a UX survey''. Not for quantitative market sizing (use market-researcher), writing business requirements (use business-analyst), or product analytics.
ux-writer
Use this skill when crafting microcopy, UI text, or in-product writing—error messages, tooltips, button labels, empty states, onboarding flows, and confirmation dialogs. Trigger phrases: ''write microcopy for'', ''write UI copy'', ''write error messages'', ''write onboarding text'', ''button label for''. Do NOT use for marketing copy (use copywriter) or long-form documentation (use technical-writer).
web-researcher
Use this skill when you need to research a topic online, gather information from multiple sources, or evaluate source credibility. Trigger phrases: ''research'', ''find information about'', ''look up'', ''investigate''. Not for academic systematic reviews (use literature-reviewer) or fact-checking specific claims (use fact-checker).
wiring-audit
User-triggered audit that finds wiring drift between a project's UI surfaces and backend capabilities — orphan surfaces (UI calls endpoints/hooks/procedures that no longer exist), unwired capabilities (backend routes/exports that nothing surfaces), shape drift (both exist but contracts mismatch), method drift (URL matches, HTTP verb does not), validation drift (frontend vs backend rules diverged), permission drift (UI exposes what backend forbids or vice versa), stale labels (UI text references renamed backend concepts), and unsurfaced configuration (env vars or flags that gate behavior with no UI or CLI to control them). This skill should be used when the user asks to "audit our wiring," "find UI/backend drift," "find unwired capabilities," "find stale surfaces," "check for contract violations," "find unused endpoints," "find unused hooks," "what mismatches between UI and backend," or any similar request whose deliverable is a prioritized findings report rather than a descriptive snapshot. Generic across UI frameworks but optimized for React applications (hooks, fetch, react-query, SWR, tRPC, server actions, react-router, Next.js). Not for descriptive architectural snapshots (use architectural-analysis), security audits (use security-auditor), or performance audits (use the performance-optimization skills).
agent-loops
Complete operational workflow for implementer agents (Codex, Gemini, etc.) making code changes and writing tests. Drives all work through atomic commits — each loop operates on the smallest complete, reviewable change. Defines the Code Change Loop, Test Writing Loop, Lint Gate, and Issue Filing process with circuit breakers, severity levels, and escalation rules. Requires `cortex git commit` for all commits. Includes bundled provider-aware review scripts that keep same-model shell-outs as the last resort, plus a fresh-context Codex fallback for code review and test audit. Use this skill when starting any implementation task.
ai-tells-review
Use when public prose still sounds machine-written after ai-tells-scan. Complements ai-tells-scan's mechanical pass with structural judgment: rhythm, hedging, rhetorical reflexes, and performative emphasis. Trigger on 'review for AI tells,' 'does this read AI,' 'strip the AI smell,' or 'make this less AI.'
ai-tells-scan
Use when writing tasks produce prose artifacts (READMEs, docs, PR text, tutorials, guides, posts, release notes) and need a fast surface scan for AI tells. Auto-engages on prose writing tasks; checks banned punctuation, stock vocabulary, and mechanical patterns. For the structural judgment pass on rhythm and rhetorical reflexes, use ai-tells-review. Not a replacement for voice skills like nick-voice; this removes machine fingerprints, it does not add a target voice.
architectural-analysis
User-triggered deep architectural analysis of a codebase or scoped subtree across eight modes — information architecture, data flow, integration points, UI surfaces, interaction patterns, data model, control flow, and failure modes. This skill should be used when the user asks to "diagram this codebase," "map the architecture," "show the data flow," "give me an ERD," "trace control flow," "find the integration points," "verify the layout pattern," "audit the UX architecture," or any similar request whose primary deliverable is mermaid diagrams plus cited reports under docs/architecture/. Dispatches haiku/sonnet sub-agents in parallel for per-mode exploration, then verifies every citation mechanically before any node lands in a diagram. Not for one-off prose explanations of code (use code-explanation) or for high-level system design from scratch (use system-design).
atlas-crew-tasks
Use when filing, updating, sequencing, or querying tasks in any atlas-crew repo (Facet + the Atlas Crew Security repos: Apparatus, Chimera, Crucible, Synapse, Bridge). These repos track work in GitHub Issues on Projects v2 boards, NOT backlog.md. Covers the two boards, the Type/Area/Status field model, cross-repo Initiative grouping, gh seq execution ordering, and the non-obvious gh/GraphQL mechanics for setting issue types and project fields. Trigger on: file an issue, create a task, set priority/type/area/status, add to board, what should I work on next, execution order, sequencing, blocked-by, milestone, where does this task go.
atomic-commits
>-
blog-post
Use this skill when writing blog posts, articles, or long-form web content—from quick how-to guides to in-depth opinion pieces. Trigger phrases: ''write a blog post about'', ''draft an article on'', ''create a post for my blog''. Do NOT use for academic papers, news reporting, or content requiring real-time facts.
brand-library-architect
Build a complete brand library for a product — visual asset render pipeline, brand documentation set (BRAND, COPY, MANIFESTO, BIOS, FAQ, GLOSSARY, TONE, PRICING), open-source convention files (README, CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, CODE_OF_CONDUCT), and a self-contained press kit. This skill should be used when the user asks to "build a brand library / brand kit / press kit / brand assets" for a product, "set up a brand library workflow," "create a positioning manifesto plus visual identity," or any combination of brand documentation + visual asset pipeline. Apply phase-by-phase or run end-to-end. Templates are product-agnostic and use {{TOKEN}} placeholders the skill prompts the user to fill.
business-analyst
Use this skill when gathering and documenting business requirements, mapping processes, performing gap analysis, writing business requirements documents (BRDs), or modeling stakeholder impact. Trigger phrases: ''write a business requirements document'', ''map this process'', ''gather requirements for'', ''gap analysis for'', ''AS-IS TO-BE process''. Not for writing user stories (use product-manager skill), conducting user research (use ux-researcher), or financial modeling.
chart-builder
Use this skill when creating data visualizations, selecting the right chart type, or generating chart code. Trigger phrases: ''build a chart'', ''visualize this data'', ''create a graph'', ''plot these numbers'', ''which chart should I use for''. Not for building interactive dashboards, designing UI components, or creating infographics with design tools like Figma.
color-palette
Use this skill when creating, evaluating, or documenting color palettes for brands, products, or design systems. Trigger phrases: ''create a color palette'', ''what colors should I use'', ''brand colors for'', ''accessible color scheme''. Do NOT use for image editing, photo color correction, or print production color matching.
competitor-analyst
Use this skill when analyzing competitors, building competitive positioning, creating feature comparison matrices, or applying strategic frameworks like SWOT or Porter''s Five Forces. Trigger phrases: ''analyze our competitors'', ''competitive analysis for'', ''how do we compare to'', ''create a feature matrix'', ''SWOT analysis of''. Not for sizing the total market (use market-researcher), writing pitch decks (use pitch-deck-writer), or pricing strategy modeling.
