Shared vocabulary for designing deep modules. Use when the user wants to design or improve a module's interface, find deepening opportunities, decide where a seam goes, make code more testable or AI-navigable, or when another skill needs the deep-module vocabulary.
A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design, which also creates docs (ADRs and glossary) as we go.
Compact the current conversation into a handoff document so a fresh agent can continue the work.
Scan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.
Review the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along two axes — Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding standards?) and Spec (does the code match what the originating spec/PRD asked for?). Use when the user wants to review a branch, work-in-progress changes, or asks to "review since X".
Turn the current conversation into a spec, saved to `.plan/` — no interview, just synthesis of what you've already discussed.

Interview me relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until we reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one. For each question, provide your recommended answer.
Ask the questions one at a time, waiting for feedback on each question before continuing. Asking multiple questions at once is bewildering.
If a fact can be found by exploring the codebase or project files, look it up rather than asking me. The decisions, though, are mine — put each one to me and wait for my answer.
Do not enact the plan until I confirm we have reached a shared understanding.
