core-skills

Run a structured architecture decision process using subagent personas that debate the decision, then produce a signed ADR (markdown + optional HTML) and update a decision registry. Triggers on "should I use X or Y", "architecture decision", "ADR", "help me decide between", "which approach", "debate this", "tech decision". Use whenever the user is making a technical or architectural choice and needs structured thinking, not just a list of tradeoffs.

Interview, stress-test, and author new skills for the skills-i-use repo — or improve existing ones. Asks hard questions, runs reviewer subagents, writes design briefs, generates SKILL.md and supporting files, validates conventions, and registers in README and OUTPUT.md. Triggers on "create a skill", "new skill", "add a skill", "improve this skill", "author a skill", "skill for X workflow", "build a skill".

Generate a deep CTO self-review report: working hours, productivity patterns, focus sessions, AI collaboration depth, cognitive load signals, sustainability health, and codebase velocity — not just commit counts. Triggers on "weekly review", "CTO report", "week summary", "what did I build", "productivity report", "show me my week", "engineer report", "weekly digest". Scans git across repos, AI agent session logs, shell history, file timestamps, and produces markdown + HTML reports. Always trigger this skill for any weekly or periodic review of engineering or product work.

Pre-ship gate before commit or push — runs lint, typecheck, tests, build, secret scan, and git diff review, then outputs a READY/BLOCKED verdict with a proposed commit message. Never commits without explicit user confirmation. Triggers on "ship check", "ready to commit", "pre-push check", "commit and push", "ship this", "can I push".

UI/UX and product review for web interfaces — opinionated principles, checklist-driven audits, polish passes on screenshots, and pre-ship UI gates. Uses Playwright to navigate, screenshot, and smoke-test interactions when a URL is available. Triggers on "review my UI", "polish this", "UX audit", "fix the hero", "make it look professional", "ui pass", "design review", attaches screenshot with UI feedback. Use when building or reviewing interfaces and product flows, not generic code review.
