Use when a design, spec, or brainstorm needs to leave this thread — to be reviewed by another agent, to feed adversarial-review, or to catch up / hand off the work to a brand-new thread or a different AI. Triggers: "review packet", "context dump", "second opinion", "paste into ChatGPT/Codex/Gemini", "hand this off", "catch up a new thread", "continue this in another agent", "I'm running out of context".
Use when turning a repo, pull request, plan/design doc, architecture, article, blog post, book, lecture, or transcript into an interactive learning artifact — a self-contained offline walkthrough.html and/or a deployable learning hub. Triggers include "onboarding guide", "walk me through this PR/codebase/design", "interactive explainer", "teaching site", "publish docs to GitHub Pages".
Use when a plan has been built with superbuild or autobuild and you need to validate that every feature was implemented correctly, wired properly, and actually works end-to-end. Use after superbuild or autobuild completes, or when the user wants proof the build matches the plan.
Use when starting significant features, epics, or complex tasks. Creates multi-phase implementation plans with parallelizable phases, poker estimates, TDD-first acceptance criteria, and quality gates. Detects tech stack from CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md (bypassing internet research if complete) or via codebase scan.
Recommends movies and TV shows to watch on streaming services. Gives 3-5 curated picks based on genre, mood, format, and streaming platform. Use when the user asks what to watch, wants streaming recommendations, or needs help picking a movie or show.
Transforms technical documents into rigorous learning journeys with collegiate-level mastery requirements. Uses Bloom's taxonomy progression, 80%+ mastery thresholds, and multi-level verification before advancing. Treats learning as a high school to college graduation progression. Use when user wants deep understanding, not surface familiarity.

"You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to So that when they turn their backs on you, You'll get the chance to put the knife in"
These lyrics from Pink Floyd demonstrate the poetic, metaphorical nature of effective songwriting. The vivid imagery and clever use of irony create a compelling narrative.
"Sam Stone was alone When he popped his last balloon Climbing walls while sitting in a chair Well, he played his last request While the room smelled just like death With an overdose hovering in the air"
The lyrics from "Sam Stone" by John Prine showcase powerful storytelling, painting a vivid picture with carefully chosen words and details.
"I put molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it. I went home and enjoyed that, she ain't even know it"
These lyrics demonstrate unethical, misogynistic content that should be avoided in songwriting.
"You're so ganster, I'm so thug Oh, I swear to you, I'll be there for you This is not a drive by Just a shy guy, looking for a two-ply Hefty bag To hold my love"
The lyrics from Train's "Hey Soul Sister" show cringeworthy, nonsensical writing that fails to connect with the listener.
