Based on SOC occupation classification
Guided game concept ideation — from zero idea to a structured game concept document. Uses professional studio ideation techniques, player psychology frameworks, and structured creative exploration.
Reviews a game design document for completeness, internal consistency, implementability, and adherence to project design standards. Run this before handing a design document to programmers.
Validate readiness to advance between development phases. Produces a PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL verdict with specific blockers and required artifacts.
Configure the project's game engine and version. Pins the engine in CLAUDE.md, detects knowledge gaps, and populates engine reference docs via WebSearch when the version is beyond the LLM's training data.
First-time onboarding — asks where you are, then guides you to the right workflow. No assumptions.
Audits game assets for compliance with naming conventions, file size budgets, format standards, and pipeline requirements. Identifies orphaned assets, missing references, and standard violations.
