AWS ECS container orchestration for running Docker containers. Use when deploying containerized applications, configuring task definitions, setting up services, managing clusters, or troubleshooting container issues.

AWS EC2 virtual machine management — instances, security groups, key pairs, AMIs, EBS volumes, Auto Scaling Groups, Spot Instances, Session Manager, placement groups, and instance lifecycle automation. Trigger on ANY of these, even when EC2 isn't named explicitly: - Launching or provisioning: "spin up a server", "create a VM", "new instance", "run-instances", mention of instance types (t3, m5, c5, r6, g5, p4d, t4g, c7g, etc.) - SSH / connectivity problems: "connection refused", "connection timed out", "permission denied publickey", "can't connect to my instance", "SSH not working" - Instance management: resize, stop, start, terminate, reboot, change instance type - Cost optimization: stop dev instances overnight, save money on EC2, spot vs on-demand, reserved instances - Auto Scaling: ASG, launch template, mixed instances policy, scale to zero, scheduled scaling - Spot Instances: spot fleet, spot interruption, capacity-optimized, price-capacity-optimized - AMIs and backups: create image, custom AMI, EBS snaps

AWS API Gateway for REST and HTTP API management. Use when creating APIs, configuring integrations, setting up authorization, managing stages, implementing rate limiting, or troubleshooting API issues.

AWS Bedrock foundation models for generative AI. Use when invoking foundation models, building AI applications, creating embeddings, configuring model access, or implementing RAG patterns.

AWS CloudFormation infrastructure as code for stack management. Use when writing templates, deploying stacks, managing drift, troubleshooting deployments, or organizing infrastructure with nested stacks.

AWS CloudWatch monitoring for logs, metrics, alarms, and dashboards. Use when setting up monitoring, creating alarms, querying logs with Insights, configuring metric filters, building dashboards, or troubleshooting application issues.

AWS Cognito user authentication and authorization service. Use when setting up user pools, configuring identity pools, implementing OAuth flows, managing user attributes, or integrating with social identity providers.

AWS DynamoDB NoSQL database for scalable data storage. Use when designing table schemas, writing queries, configuring indexes, managing capacity, implementing single-table design, or troubleshooting performance issues.

Patterns and architectures for building AI agents and workflows with LLMs. Use when designing systems that involve tool use, multi-step reasoning, autonomous decision-making, or orchestration of LLM-driven tasks.

Strategies for managing LLM context windows effectively in AI agents. Use when building agents that handle long conversations, multi-step tasks, tool orchestration, or need to maintain coherence across extended interactions.

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA). Use when fine-tuning large language models with limited GPU memory, creating task-specific adapters, or when you need to train multiple specialized models from a single base.

Running and fine-tuning LLMs on Apple Silicon with MLX. Use when working with models locally on Mac, converting Hugging Face models to MLX format, fine-tuning with LoRA/QLoRA on Apple Silicon, or serving models via HTTP API.

Crafting effective prompts for LLMs. Use when designing prompts, improving output quality, structuring complex instructions, or debugging poor model responses.

Building and training neural networks with PyTorch. Use when implementing deep learning models, training loops, data pipelines, model optimization with torch.compile, distributed training, or deploying PyTorch models.

Memory-efficient fine-tuning with 4-bit quantization and LoRA adapters. Use when fine-tuning large models (7B+) on consumer GPUs, when VRAM is limited, or when standard LoRA still exceeds memory. Builds on the lora skill.

Understanding Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) for aligning language models. Use when learning about preference data, reward modeling, policy optimization, or direct alignment algorithms like DPO.

Guide for using qi, a local knowledge search CLI for macOS and Linux. Use this skill whenever the user asks about qi commands, indexing documents, searching a knowledge base, asking questions with RAG, configuring providers (Ollama, OpenAI), understanding search modes (BM25, hybrid, vector), or anything related to the qi tool. Triggers on phrases like "qi index", "qi search", "qi ask", "qi query", "how do I use qi", "set up qi", "configure qi", "search my notes with qi", or any mention of the qi CLI.
