| Skill | Use For | Not For |
|---|---|---|
bro |
Restating the previous message in plain, concise language. | Providing new analysis, instructions, or technical detail. |
codebase-design |
Designing deep modules, improving interfaces, finding seams, and making code easier to test or navigate. | General implementation work that does not involve module or interface design. |
deslop |
Reviewing a branch diff to remove AI-generated code slop while preserving behavior. | Broad refactors, intentional behavior changes, or solving unclear bugs. |
file-pr |
Opening or updating a pull request with a clear title and concise body. | Making commits or changing the implementation. |
grill-me |
Relentlessly stress-testing a plan, decision, or idea through structured questions. | Implementation or lightweight brainstorming that does not need a decision audit. |
handoff |
Compacting the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up. | Permanent project documentation, PRDs, ADRs, or issue breakdowns. |
html-doc |
Communicating specs, findings, reports, comparisons, and visualizations as a self-contained HTML document. | Plain-text answers or documents that must use another file format. |
prototype |
Building a throwaway prototype to explore a state model, business logic question, or UI direction before committing to it. | Production implementation, polished UI delivery, persistent data flows, or long-lived experiments. |
technical-writting |
Writing or reviewing clear technical docs, RFCs, READMEs, PR descriptions, and commit messages. | Product UI copy or documentation outside the project's real terminology and behavior. |
tdd |
Building features or fixing bugs with a red-green-refactor loop and behavior-focused tests. | Bulk test generation, implementation-detail tests, or changes where tests are intentionally out of scope. |
type-spec |
Creating implementation-ready architecture handoffs with typed contracts and call stacks. | Implementing the design or inventing requirements without enough context. |
unslop |
Editing writing to remove AI tells and give it a specific, human voice. | Changing the underlying meaning, facts, or intended tone. |
