Generate and critically evaluate grounded improvement ideas for the current project. Use when asking what to improve, requesting idea generation, exploring surprising improvements, or wanting the AI to proactively suggest strong project directions before brainstorming one in depth. Triggers on phrases like 'what should I improve', 'give me ideas', 'ideate on this project', 'surprise me with improvements', 'what would you change', or any request for AI-generated project improvement suggestions rather than refining the user's own idea.
Create structured plans for any multi-step task -- software features, research workflows, events, study plans, or any goal that benefits from structured breakdown. Also deepen existing plans with interactive review of sub-agent findings. Use for plan creation when the user says 'plan this', 'create a plan', 'write a tech plan', 'plan the implementation', 'how should we build', 'what's the approach for', 'break this down', 'plan a trip', 'create a study plan', or when a brainstorm/requirements document is ready for planning. Use for plan deepening when the user says 'deepen the plan', 'deepen my plan', 'deepening pass', or uses 'deepen' in reference to a plan.
[BETA] Execute work with external delegate support. Same as gh:work but includes experimental Codex delegation mode for token-conserving code implementation.
Execute work efficiently while maintaining quality and finishing features
Refresh stale or drifting learnings and pattern docs in docs/solutions/ by reviewing, updating, consolidating, replacing, or deleting them against the current codebase. Use after refactors, migrations, dependency upgrades, or when a retrieved learning feels outdated or wrong. Also use when reviewing docs/solutions/ for accuracy, when a recently solved problem contradicts an existing learning, when pattern docs no longer reflect current code, or when multiple docs seem to cover the same topic and might benefit from consolidation.
Document a recently solved problem to compound your team's knowledge or update CONCEPTS.md, the project's shared domain vocabulary.
Start the dev server, open the feature in a browser, and iterate on improvements together. Manual invocation only — type /gh:polish to run it.
Structured code review using tiered persona agents, confidence-gated findings, and a merge/dedup pipeline. Use when reviewing code changes before creating a PR.
