WHEN to auto-invoke: Creating API routes, building endpoints, adding route.ts files, implementing REST/GraphQL APIs, adding authentication to APIs, rate limiting, API validation with Zod, handling HTTP methods (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE). WHEN NOT to invoke: Pure frontend work, styling, React components without API calls, documentation-only tasks, database migrations without API changes.

WHEN to auto-invoke: Code review requests, refactoring code, cleaning up code, performance optimization, security audits, linting issues, reducing technical debt. WHEN NOT to invoke: Building new features (use domain-specific skills), initial implementation, documentation-only work.

WHEN to auto-invoke: End of productive sessions, after solving difficult problems, after user corrections, after discovering effective workarounds, after establishing project conventions. WHEN NOT to invoke: Trivial sessions, sessions with only exploration, when explicitly told not to learn.

WHEN to auto-invoke: Database schema design, creating migrations, writing SQL queries, query optimization, Supabase operations, Prisma/Drizzle schema changes, PostgreSQL tasks, RLS policies, indexes. WHEN NOT to invoke: Pure frontend work, API logic without database, styling, React components, deployment tasks.

WHEN to auto-invoke: Creating CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions workflows, Docker/containerization, Vercel/Netlify deployment, infrastructure as code, environment variables, deployment configurations. WHEN NOT to invoke: Application code changes, UI development, database schema design, testing application logic.

WHEN to auto-invoke: Measuring code quality, testing AI outputs, establishing success criteria, defining acceptance tests, checking implementation correctness. WHEN NOT to invoke: Simple implementations, prototyping, exploration phases, when speed matters more than measurement.

WHEN to auto-invoke: Creating UI components, building React/Vue/Svelte components, Next.js pages, styling with Tailwind/CSS, state management setup, form handling, accessibility improvements, client-side interactivity. WHEN NOT to invoke: API-only work, database operations, backend logic, DevOps/deployment, pure testing without UI.

Use this skill for isolated branch workflows and parallel development. Activates when working on features that need isolation, switching contexts, or managing multiple branches.

Use this skill for isolated branch workflows and parallel development. Activates when working on features that need isolation, switching contexts, or managing multiple branches.

Use this skill when creating Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, adding tools to extend Claude's capabilities, or integrating external APIs as MCP tools.

Use this skill to break work into small, verifiable chunks. Activates when planning implementation, breaking down features, or when tasks seem too large.

Use this skill when creating, testing, or securing API endpoints. Activates for REST API routes, authentication, rate limiting, and API documentation tasks.

Use this skill for code review, testing, refactoring, and optimization. Activates for security review, test generation, performance analysis, and code cleanup tasks.

Use this skill for database schema design, migrations, queries, and optimization. Activates for Supabase, Prisma, Drizzle, and PostgreSQL tasks.

Use this skill for deployment, CI/CD, Docker, and infrastructure tasks. Activates for GitHub Actions, Vercel, containerization, and environment management.
