Create a researched, durable, approval-gated goal contract whose verification tools, repository-vault authentication, exact proof steps, rollout safety, and evidence lifecycle are ready before execution. Use when the user asks to set, create, refine, save, or verify a goal; asks whether an agent has everything needed to prove completion; wants a proof-driven alternative to a raw `/goal`; or explicitly invokes `$verify-goal`.
Relentlessly interview the user in dependency-aware batches to sharpen a plan, decision, design, idea, codebase change, or bug fix. Use when the user wants to get grilled, investigate a bug from a ticket or screenshots, pass unfinished grilling to a teammate, or pick it up from a PR. Begin each session by choosing native dialogs or one full text batch, then Sideshow or experimental Grill Visuals for live diagrams. In repositories, inspect current behavior, run a mandatory gap and blast-radius pass, and maintain durable decision docs as answers settle.
Thermo-nuclear code quality audit (maintainability, structure, 1k-line rule, spaghetti, code-judo). Invoked via Task after a parent gathers diff and file contents. Loads the rubric from the `thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review` skill in the cursor-team-kit plugin.
Validate your code changes through the no-mistakes pipeline - automated code review, tests, lint, docs, push, PR, and CI - before they reach upstream. Use when the user asks to run no-mistakes, gate or ship or validate their changes, push safely, asks you to do a task and then validate it, or invokes /no-mistakes.
Scan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.
Configure this repo for the engineering skills — set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the other engineering skills.

You don't remember every skill, so ask.
A flow is a path through the skills. Most paths run along one main flow, and two on-ramps merge onto it. Everything else is standalone.
The route most work travels. You have an idea and want it built.
/grill-me — sharpen the idea by interview. It inspects code and maintains canonical plans, CONTEXT.md, and ADRs when a repository is present; otherwise it keeps a standalone decision log./handoff in both directions (see Crossing sessions):
/handoff out, then open a fresh session against that file,/prototype to answer the question with throwaway code,/handoff back what you learned, and reference it from the original idea thread./to-prd (turn the thread into a PRD) → /to-issues (split the PRD into independently-grabbable issues). Because the issues are independent, clear context between each one: start a fresh session per issue and kick off /implement by passing it the PRD and the single issue to work on./implement right here, in the same context window.Keep steps 1–3 in one unbroken context window — don't compact or clear until after /to-issues — so the grilling, PRD, and issues all build on the same thinking. Each /implement then starts fresh, working from the issue.
The limit on this is the smart zone: the window (~120k tokens on state-of-the-art models) within which the model still reasons sharply. If a session approaches it before /to-issues, don't push on degraded — /handoff and continue in a fresh thread.
A starting situation that generates work, then merges onto the main flow.
Bugs and requests piling up → /triage. It moves issues through triage roles and produces agent-ready issues, which /implement later picks up.
Triage is only for issues you didn't create — bug reports, incoming feature requests, anything that arrives raw. Issues that /to-issues produced are already agent-ready, so don't triage them.
Not feature work — upkeep.
/improve-codebase-architecture — run whenever you have a spare moment to keep the codebase good for agents to operate in. It surfaces deepening opportunities; picking one generates an idea you can take into the main flow at /grill-me./handoff — when a thread is full or you need to branch off (e.g. into a /prototype session), this compacts the conversation into a markdown file. You don't continue in place — you open a new session and reference that file to carry the context across. It's the bridge between context windows, in either direction. Use it when you want a fresh session but need the current conversation preserved./compact (built-in) — stay in the same conversation, letting the earlier turns be summarized. Use it at intentional breaks between phases, when you don't mind losing the verbatim history. Don't compact mid-phase — the agent can lose its way. /handoff forks; /compact continues.Off the main flow entirely.
/teach — learn a concept over multiple sessions, using the current directory as a stateful workspace./writing-great-skills — reference for writing and editing skills well./setup-matt-pocock-skills — run before your first engineering flow to configure the issue tracker, triage labels, and doc layout the other skills assume. Custom issue trackers also work.
