Create or finalize a pull request — three modes: placeholder draft PR at spec time, finalize a draft into ready-for-review, or a regular PR right away for work done outside the task workflow.
Grill a product task (GitHub issue) into an implementable spec — research first, then a one-question-at-a-time interview; also elaborates sub-specs for deferred subtasks of large tasks.
Execute a product-task spec one leaf subtask per run — [agent] subtasks via the project skills, [human] subtasks handed off to the developer.
Convert the current conversation into a product-task spec in .agents/tasks/, or update an existing spec — folding in new decisions, harvesting colleague replies from Slack threads, and sending open questions to their owners. Use at the end of a grilling session, when the user wants to capture any conversation as a spec, or to sync a spec's open questions with Slack.
Declare new API resource(s) in an existing API service. Use whenever the app needs to call an endpoint that has no `service:name` resource yet.
Scaffold a new page (index / detail / general) and optionally wire it to API data. Use when adding any new route to the app, or when wiring API data into an already-scaffolded page (one with `TODO (api-data):` markers).

| description | Ensure GitHub CLI (gh) is installed and authenticated before running gh commands; guide the user to configure it if not |
Use this skill whenever a workflow or command requires the GitHub CLI (gh). Before running any gh commands:
gh auth status. If it reports "not logged in" or the command is not found:
gh is not installed: Ask the user to install it (e.g. brew install gh on macOS, or see GitHub CLI) and then authenticate.gh is installed but not configured: Ask the user to configure it themselves. Provide these instructions to help them:
gh auth login and follow the prompts (choose HTTPS or SSH, authenticate via browser or token).gh auth status succeeds: Proceed with the steps that require gh.Other skills that depend on gh (e.g. get-checks-status) should instruct the agent to ensure GitHub CLI is ready first by following this skill.
