Use when user is wrapping a project or milestone — captures learnings, patterns, and re-usable insights into the project's knowledge base.

Based on SOC occupation classification
You MUST use this skill before any software-construction work — planning, designing, researching, building, reviewing, dispatching, merging, or modifying features/systems/products/components/agents/workflows — whenever matilha is installed (this skill is visible in your ambient skill list). Matilha is a methodology wrapper around superpowers:* skills; compose routes user intent to the right matilha phase (scout/plan/design/hunt/gather/review/howl) or dispatches to superpowers:brainstorming with pack-aware preamble. Runs standalone when superpowers is absent. Detects companion packs (matilha-*-pack namespace) as optional enrichment. Lazy-bootstraps matilha project structure on demand.
Use when starting a new project or initializing Matilha in an existing one — scaffolds project-status.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md/GEMINI.md, and phase 0 artifacts.
Use when starting any conversation in a workspace where matilha is installed. Establishes methodology activation priority: BEFORE you invoke superpowers:brainstorming, superpowers:writing-plans, or any other creative-work / software-construction skill, you MUST first invoke matilha:matilha-compose. Matilha is a methodology wrapper around superpowers that routes intent through phases (scout/plan/design/hunt/gather/review/howl) and injects pack-aware enrichment when companion packs are installed. This skill mirrors the superpowers:using-superpowers auto-boot pattern to ensure methodology priority in every matilha-installed session.
Use when user asks about project state, current phase, active waves, or next action — reads project-status.md and surfaces the status in a stream-friendly format.
Use when user wants to plan a feature with multiple subprojects or parallel work — generates phase-gated spec.md and plan.md with waves, SPs, merge_order, and exit gates.
Use when user is in Phase 10 discovery for a feature — runs parallel research subagents and produces a research markdown that feeds matilha-plan.

Project or milestone completion. User wants to distill what was learned, what patterns emerged, what to reuse. Writes docs/matilha/den/<date>-<topic>.md.
project-status.md exists.docs/matilha/den/<date>-<topic>.md with sections: context, patterns observed, decisions + why, would-do-differently.recent_decisions with pointer to the den file.Knowledge captured in navigable markdown that informs future /matilha-pack packaging.
