| description | Analyze, re-engineer, or bootstrap projects to align with AI-first design principles. Use when asked to review, audit, improve, 'ai-firstify', or start a new project. Performs deep analysis across 7 dimensions, actively restructures existing projects, or guides new project setup through discovery questions. Based on the 9 design principles and 7 design patterns from the TechWolf AI-First Bootcamp. |
AI-Firstify
Analyze and re-engineer projects to align with AI-first design principles.
Trigger
Use this skill when asked to:
- Audit mode (read-only): "review", "audit", "analyze", "check", "assess"
- Re-Engineer mode (active changes): "ai-firstify", "fix", "improve", "re-engineer", "transform"
- Bootstrap mode (new project): "start", "new project", "bootstrap", "set up", "build from scratch"
Mode 1: Audit (Read-Only Analysis)
Perform a comprehensive read-only analysis across 7 dimensions. Output a scored report with recommendations. Do NOT modify any files.
Read references/mode-audit.md for the full audit procedure and dimension checklist.
Mode 2: Re-Engineer (Active Transformation)
First, perform the full audit (Mode 1). Then actively fix issues in 7 phases: foundation, de-agentification, skill extraction, complexity reduction, context hygiene, safety hardening, workflow optimization.
Read references/mode-reengineer.md for the full re-engineering procedure.
Mode 3: Bootstrap (New Project Setup)
Guide the user through setting up a new AI-first project from scratch. Interactive: ask discovery questions, recommend architecture, scaffold, and test.
Read references/mode-bootstrap.md for the full bootstrap procedure.
Reference Files
Domain knowledge (load on demand per dimension):
- references/principles.md: All 9 AI-first design principles in depth
- references/patterns.md: All 7 design patterns with implementation guidance
- references/anti-patterns.md: Common mistakes with detection patterns and fixes
- references/skill-architecture.md: How to structure skills, sub-agents, and workflows
- references/project-structure.md: Ideal project layouts, CLAUDE.md templates, .gitignore
- references/assessment-rubric.md: Scoring criteria and report template
Load the relevant reference file for the dimension you are currently analyzing. Do not load all references at once. Use progressive disclosure.
Tools
- scripts/validate-report.sh: Validates that a generated assessment report has all required sections, dimensions, and scores
