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 referenc...

Consult Claude specialist agents during implementation for codebase understanding, pattern checking, security review, debugging help, and more. Use this skill whenever you're unsure about conventions, stuck on a failure, or need expert input before writing code. Does not replace the formal review gates in agent-loops — this is for mid-implementation consultation.

Complete operational workflow for implementer agents (Codex, Gemini, etc.) making code changes and writing tests.

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 r...

Use this skill when a working tree contains uncommitted changes that need to be split into a sequence of atomic commits — typically after a long session, an agent hand-off, a rebase resolution, or anytime `git status` shows mixed work that was not committed as it landed. The skill assumes the agent has fresh context and did not author most of the diff, so it treats the working tree as evidence to investigate before grouping. Optimizes for `git bisect`: each commit is the smallest buildable an...

Task tracking system for agents via Backlog.md CLI. Use when creating deferred issues during implementation, filing audit findings, working assigned tasks, or managing project work. Optimized for agent workflows: structured issue filing, priority/labeling system, and task completion tracking.

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.

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...

Use codanna MCP tools for semantic code search, call graphs, and impact analysis before grep/find.

Automate code review remediation loops with the codex CLI. Requests reviews from codex, classifies findings by severity (P0-P4), fixes critical issues (P0/P1) through iterative cycles, defers quality improvements to backlog, and escalates after 3 review cycles. Use when working with code that needs structured remediation: ''codex review'' in a request triggers this workflow.

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''.
