Run a Tier 2 cross-model review handoff on a Tier-1-reviewed chunk of work: gather the bead context, changed files, Tier 1 outcomes, and trusted boundary; draft the review-focus paragraph; call the deterministic assembler to emit a ready-to-paste prompt…
Voice discipline for human-facing prose — pattern catalog, self-correction protocol, and worked examples for killing AI-sounding rhetorical tics. Load when writing positioning docs, pre-whitepapers, packets, deck copy, primers, emails, briefs, or any prose a…
Whole-repo audit for over-engineering. Like graybeard-review, but scans the entire codebase instead of a diff: a ranked list of what to delete, simplify, or replace with stdlib/native equivalents. Use when the user says "audit this codebase", "audit for…
Quick-reference index for the graybeard family: which skill or rule to use for over-engineering review, repo-wide audit, defer-ledger harvesting, or minimal-implementation mode. One-shot display, not a persistent mode. Trigger: "graybeard help", "use…
Code review focused exclusively on over-engineering. Finds what to delete: reinvented standard library, unneeded dependencies, speculative abstractions, dead flexibility. One line per finding: location, what to cut, what replaces it. Use when the user says…
Author a gate/sprint review packet from a committed blueprint: gather the gate's bead evidence and receipts, populate the reader's-own-checklist status grid with a divergence strip, a capped FAQ, and exactly three linked receipts, carry the decision…
Harvest every `defer:` comment in the codebase into a debt ledger, so the deliberate shortcuts and deferrals get tracked instead of rotting into "later means never". Use when the user says "graybeard debt", "/graybeard-debt", "what did we defer", "list the…
Single-bead lifecycle playbook — authoring worked examples (bd create with description/ACs/non-goals), dedupe search, validation mechanics (bd lint / --dry-run), wisps, JIT verification on pickup, progress notes, self-review before close, close-reason format…
