hotspots

Find where a codebase actually costs time by mining its git history (Tornhill hotspot analysis). Produces ranked refactoring targets with evidence, change-coupling seams, and a do-not-refactor list; re-run after refactoring to verify it paid off.

Presents a proposed approach in progressive confirmable chunks with recommended decisions and alternatives. Use when aligning on a design, plan, or technical approach before implementation.

Quellsprache: Englisch

refactoring-team

Iterative code refactoring through progressive lenses via a worker-reviewer agent team.

Launches agent teams with structured roles and task decomposition. Use when asked to create a team, spawn teammates, or coordinate multiple agents in parallel.

Quellsprache: Englisch

growing-outside-in-systems

Drive feature development using Outside-In TDD with Hexagonal Architecture. Design emerges through inline code, in-memory fakes, interface extraction, and deferred I/O. Use when building features, writing tests, or structuring backend services. Triggers on:…

Quellsprache: Englisch

writing-statuslines

Writes Claude Code status line scripts. Use when creating, customizing, or debugging statusline configurations.

Quellsprache: Englisch

event-modeling

Designs systems using Event Modeling.

Quellsprache: Englisch

refinement-loop

Quellsprache: Englisch

collaborative-design

Designs software features collaboratively through visual scenarios and iterative refinement. Use when designing features, tools, UIs, workflows, or any system before implementation.

Quellsprache: Englisch

hexagonal-architecture

Applies hexagonal (ports & adapters) architecture. Use when designing application structure, separating domain from infrastructure, creating testable boundaries, or when user mentions ports, adapters, hexagonal, or clean architecture.

Quellsprache: Englisch

refactoring

Refactoring process. Invoke immediately when user or document mentions refactoring, or proactively when code gets too complex or messy.

Quellsprache: Englisch

creating-hooks

Creates Claude Code hooks.

Quellsprache: Englisch
