Reviews the current branch diff for bugs, edge cases, performance regressions, and behavior interactions. Use when asked for a code review, "review my changes", "check this code", or "anything wrong with this". This is a quick, focused review — for comprehensive multi-agent reviews, use full-code-review instead.
Analyzes code against staff-engineer patterns (security, architecture, simplicity, completeness, hygiene). Use when asked for a staff or senior code review, "staff review", "pattern review", or "review this like a staff engineer". This is the most thorough single-agent review — for multi-agent reviews, use full-code-review.
Generate monthly client progress reports for RailsPilot. Uses gh CLI to list the user's merged PRs, applies feature sizing rules, and drafts a numbered-list email. Use when asked for a monthly progress report, client delivery summary, or "progress report for [Month]".
Quick-reference card for all ponytail modes, skills, and commands. One-shot display, not a persistent mode. Trigger: /ponytail-help, "ponytail help", "what ponytail commands", "how do I use ponytail".
Write a warm, human-to-human written response (handoffs, status updates, testing notes for QA, sign-off requests, confirming assumptions before merging, or escalating an open question). Use when the user asks to draft a response, reply to a thread, write a handoff, send testing notes, ask the team to confirm something, phrase a Slack or PR comment, or convert dev-flavored notes into a message a teammate would actually enjoy reading.
Trim editorial bloat from technical docs (integration writeups, ADRs, investigation notes, READMEs). Proposes a unified diff with per-cut rationale and waits for approval. Use when asked to "trim this doc", "tighten this writeup", "filter pass on X.md", "prune the doc", or "cut the slop from this writeup".
Remove AI-writing tells from text: em-dash overuse, rule of three, inflated symbolism, vague attributions, AI vocabulary, passive voice, filler phrases. Use when the user asks to humanizer, make it sound human or remove traces of AI.
Implements a Linear or Jira issue end-to-end: branch, TDD, code reviews. Auto-detects task manager from recent commits. Use when given an issue ID (e.g., TRA-9, PROJ-456) and asked to implement it.
