Capture what was done in the current conversation as a repeatable, well-structured skill (SKILL.md). Interviews the user to clarify intent, scope, and edge cases before writing.
Generate a high-level architecture design document from a requirements document. Covers technology choices, compute platforms, databases, data models, data flows, and security posture — no code snippets or code structure.
Generate a low-level design specification from requirements and high-level design documents. Covers class diagrams, package structure, class interactions, and testing strategy — the bridge between architecture and implementation.
Implement a specific task from the implementation plan using strict TDD. Writes failing tests first, then minimal code to pass, with human approval before committing. Tracks status in plan/{prefix}-plan.md.
Generate an implementation task plan from design documents. Breaks a low-level design into ordered, dependency-aware tasks with explicit parallelization analysis. Use when you have a completed low-level design and need to plan the implementation work.
Diagnose and fix test coverage gaps. Identifies uncovered code paths, adds targeted tests, refactors untestable code, and introduces mocking where needed. Never lowers thresholds.

Research the following topic and produce a complete report.
Brief: $ARGUMENTS
If the brief includes --template <name>, use that template. Valid template names:
generic-deep-research — thorough investigation of a topic (default)decision-brief — structured comparison of options with a recommendationlearning-plan — three-phase syllabus (Apprentice, Journeyman, Master)If no template is specified, infer the best fit from the brief using the selection heuristics in your instructions.
Follow your full five-stage process: intake, template selection, information gathering, synthesis, and publishing.
