Make any ThumbGate-facing copy — landing/pricing/compare/guide pages, README, postinstall banners, CLI receipts, Reddit/LinkedIn/Bluesky/Threads posts, docs, outreach drafts, blog/launch content — sound like ThumbGate: direct, technical, honest, anti-hype. Use BEFORE writing or editing customer-facing or marketing text, and when the user says "write a landing page", "draft a Reddit/LinkedIn post", "write the README", "make this on-brand", "punch up this copy", or "review this copy for voice". Do NOT use for code comments, commit messages, internal notes, or non-ThumbGate copy — and never to add fabricated traction or unsupported claims (honesty is the brand).

ThumbGate Brand Voice

Orchestrator skill for producing on-brand ThumbGate copy. Method adapted from the "Claude brand skill" approach (contrast-based learning: show the model a good line, a line that goes too far, and a line that dies of beige).

When to use

Use this whenever you are about to write or edit copy a human will read as ThumbGate: landing/pricing/compare/guide pages, README, postinstall banners, CLI receipts, social posts (Reddit, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads), outreach drafts, or blog/launch content. Do not use it for code comments, commit messages, or internal notes.

How to use (in order)

Read brand-foundation.md — who ThumbGate is, the 5 personality traits, and the explicit "what we aren't" list.
Read voice-and-tone.md — per-trait good / too-far / too-flat rewrites. Match the "good" column; never the other two.
Read content-formats.md — which traits amplify or recede per channel, with on/off-brand examples per channel.
Read voice_profile.md — for specific pacing, tone, and vocabulary guidelines.
Read body_of_work.md — to anchor the core technical thesis and foundational opinions of ThumbGate.
Consult tokens.json — for color palettes, typography, and styling constraints when generating assets.
Draft. Then stress-test: reread your draft against the "what we aren't" list and the channel rules. If a sentence could appear verbatim on a generic "AI governance platform" site, rewrite it until it could only be ThumbGate.

The one rule that overrides everything

Never overclaim. ThumbGate is pre-revenue and honesty is the brand. No fabricated traction ("trusted by N teams"), no benchmark claims without a cited source, no "live" integration we don't ship. Honest-and-specific beats impressive-and-vague every time.

thumbgate

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

ThumbGate provides pre-action gates for AI coding agents. It captures thumbs-up/down feedback on agent actions, auto-promotes repeated failures into prevention rules, and blocks known-bad tool calls via PreToolUse hooks. Trigger when the user wants to add safety guardrails to an AI agent workflow, capture structured feedback on agent output, generate prevention rules from failure patterns, gate high-risk actions before execution, or export DPO training pairs from production feedback. Works with any MCP-compatible agent including Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, and OpenCode.

thumbgate-feedback

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

Capture thumbs up/down feedback into structured memories and prevention rules. Require one sentence of why before claiming memory promotion. Use when user gives explicit quality signals about agent work (e.g. "that worked", "that failed", "thumbs up/down"). Do NOT use for general questions, code generation, file operations, or any task that is not explicit feedback on prior agent output.

agent-memory

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

Give your agent persistent cross-session memory — recall what went wrong on similar tasks before starting, then capture whether the work succeeded or failed so repeated mistakes auto-promote into prevention rules. Runs locally via the ThumbGate MCP server (recall, capture_feedback, prevention_rules, feedback_stats) — no API key needed. Use when the user says "recall", "what went wrong last time", "remember this for next time", "capture feedback", "thumbs up/down on that", or at the start of a new task or session. Do NOT use when the user wants to force one specific mistake into an enforced block gate (use the thumbgate-guard skill), to list rules that already exist (thumbgate-rules), or to check ThumbGate wiring (thumbgate-doctor).

solve-architecture-autonomy

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

Course-correct from over-planning to execution — when the agent has produced a plan, research, or options instead of doing work the user already approved, drop the analysis and execute the smallest end-to-end action now (branch, run, deploy, verify). Use when the user says "stop planning, just do it", "why are you researching, execute", "just ship it", "enough analysis", or pushes back that you keep proposing instead of acting on an already-decided task. Do NOT use when the task is genuinely undecided and needs a plan first, when the user explicitly asked for research/options/a design, or for routine work where no over-planning has occurred — acting on an unscoped or destructive task is its own failure.

thumbgate-blocked

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

Show ThumbGate's enforcement record — how many risky actions were actually blocked versus warned, which gates fire most, the tokens/damage saved, and the full feedback to check to rejection pipeline. Reads live enforcement counters via the gate_stats and enforcement_matrix MCP tools (CLI fallback `npx thumbgate gate-stats`). Use when the user says "what has ThumbGate blocked", "show gate stats", "is enforcement working", "how many tokens did we save", "show the enforcement matrix", or "what got stopped". Do NOT use to list rule DEFINITIONS that exist (use the thumbgate-rules skill), to create a new rule (use the thumbgate-guard skill), or to check whether ThumbGate is installed and wired (use the thumbgate-doctor skill).

thumbgate-doctor

IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate

Health-check whether ThumbGate is actually wired into this agent — PreToolUse/SessionStart hooks installed, MCP server reachable, lesson store present, statusline, and overall agent-readiness — then report exactly what to fix. Runs the existing `npx thumbgate doctor` audit and the check_operational_integrity MCP tool. Use when the user says "is ThumbGate wired up", "thumbgate doctor", "check my guardrails are installed", "why aren't my gates firing", "is the MCP server connected", or "agent readiness". Do NOT use to view rules (use the thumbgate-rules skill), to view what was blocked (use the thumbgate-blocked skill), or to capture a new rule (use the thumbgate-guard skill) — this skill only diagnoses setup and wiring.
