- Writing Technical Design DocsDrafts technical design docs that are directionally correct, not perfect, deciding one-way doors, deferring two-way doors, and naming unknowns. Use when asked to write, draft, or author a design doc, RFC, tech spec, or architecture proposal. Not for reviewing a design; use reviewing-design-docs.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Being Extremely Fucking BriefKeeps every reply to the user to three lines or fewer, with no preamble, restated question, recap, or closing offer. Use when about to reply to the user: load it before every reply in every session, including plain questions, recommendations, and comparisons, even when no other skill applies.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Composing Agent PromptsComposes a self-contained, source-cited task prompt for another coding agent to execute in a target repository, without running the task. Use when the user asks to write, draft, or hand off a prompt, brief, or task spec for another agent. Not for system prompts; use writing-system-prompts.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Conducting Deep ResearchConducts source-backed, goal-directed research that combines a scholarly evidence review with an institution, company, or funding map. Use when a request needs both an evidence review and an organization or funding map. Not for quick lookups or general research write-ups.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Cutting SkillsAudits or trims an existing agent skill to its behavioral core and narrows over-broad trigger metadata. Use when the user asks to cut, simplify, shorten, de-slop, or reduce the context cost or trigger aggressiveness of a SKILL.md or skill folder. Never infer from a skill being long or edited for another purpose.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Improving PromptsCompresses and clarifies an existing LLM prompt through concept elevation, verifying that no original instruction is lost. Use when the user supplies a prompt or prompt file and asks to improve, tighten, optimize, or refine it. Not for writing a new prompt; use writing-system-prompts.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Learning From MistakesCodifies the latest correction or mistake in the conversation as a short imperative rule in the project or global CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md, after the user approves it. Use when the user asks to learn from a mistake, remember a lesson for next time, add a rule to CLAUDE.md, or not repeat a behavior. Not for a whole session; use running-retros.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Pricing CreativityApplies Blair Enns's Pricing Creativity frameworks to value-based pricing for creative and professional services firms. Use when pricing work by value, writing proposals with options, anchoring, structuring retainers, negotiating price or procurement, or moving off hourly billing.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Running RetrosMines a session transcript, past agent sessions, or named sources such as PR review comments for durable learnings, then proposes approval-gated edits to skills, AGENTS.md, or docs and tracker issues. Use when the user explicitly asks for a retrospective or retro. Never infer from session end or friction.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Summarizing Shipped WorkSummarizes the user's merged GitHub PRs for a timeframe into a grouped, linked shipped-work report with highlights, and offers to update a brag document. Use when asked what the user shipped (this week, last month, a quarter, since a date), for a status update, or to update a brag doc.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Writing ProseWrites and edits prose for people in a plain, conversational, short house style with no em dashes. Use when drafting or revising documentation, READMEs, explanations, blog posts, or other human-facing prose. Not for prompts written for agents; use writing-system-prompts or composing-agent-prompts.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
- Writing System PromptsWrites and reviews system prompts for AI tools, agents, chatbots, and LLM products using a fixed section order and a quality checklist. Use when drafting a system prompt or auditing one for missing stop criteria, tool rules, constraints, or examples. Not for compressing an existing prompt; use improving-prompts.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 2
