The post-PR CI gate loop — a strict sequential state machine that drives an open PR to settled: merge status → conflicts → unresolved review threads → CI checks, fixing/pushing/waiting/restarting until every gate is green, then reporting ready (never auto-merging). Use whenever the user says "do the loop", "run the loop", "the CI loop", "check the PR", or invokes /ci-loop. On merge it runs `cleanup` for teardown. It does NOT do the pre-PR self-review (that's `parallel-workflow`'s gate) and never touches issue status (that's the tracker's — see `task-tracker`).
Enforces the parallel subtask workflow using tracker issues, git worktrees, and PRs. Auto-triggers when working with git, branches, worktrees, PRs, tracker issues/tasks, codegen, or CI.
The single source of truth for WHICH task tracker we use and HOW to talk to it. Load this whenever you need to create, read, update, relate, or comment on a task/issue/project, or whenever another skill says "the task tracker", "the tracker issue", "the issue's state", or points at `task-tracker`. It owns the tool (Linear, via the `linear` CLI — never the Linear MCP), auth, the SWorld team and `SWO` key, the project-is-an-app model, the Backlog→Todo→In Progress→In Review→Done lifecycle, and the exact issue/relation/document command forms. Reach for it any time a workflow step runs a `linear …` command or names a tracker concept, even when the triggering skill refers to "the issue" only generically.
Known traps in the sworld local dev/build tooling — stale package dists, turbo cache masking bundle changes, Node version pinning, pnpm's dependency cooldown, CodeGraph setup, and bundle-size vs error-tracking tradeoffs. Auto-triggers when a dev server fails to resolve a core/ui subpath, a build "works" but the change isn't visible, adding/upgrading a dependency, or trimming bundle size for perf.
The audit pass on an already-scoped ticket and its sub-issue breakdown, run BEFORE any code. Use it as the first move whenever picking up, starting, resuming, or "analysing" a non-trivial tracker issue — especially a large-feature parent with sub-issues — to catch missing requirements and a breakdown that has drifted out of sync before you build against it. Reach for it the moment you're about to start an issue, when a plan "looks done" but nobody has re-checked it, or when the user says "analyse this issue / take a look at this breakdown / is this plan right". This is the backward/audit direction on a *spec* — distinct from `product-planning`/`grill-me` (forward, idea → breakdown) and `self-review` (analysing *code*). Not needed for a trivial, single-issue bug or a one-line change with no breakdown to audit.
Enforces frontend architecture patterns including server state management, data transformation, and GraphQL conventions. Auto-triggers when working with API calls, data fetching, react-query, GraphQL, or data transformations.
Enforces general code conventions and best practices. Auto-triggers when writing or editing any TypeScript/TSX files.
Work out the true dependency graph of a change from the code — which pieces are isolated, which are genuinely blocked by another, and which block others. Auto-triggers when breaking a feature into sub-tasks, deciding whether a `blockedBy` edge is real, sequencing work into waves, asking "can these run in parallel?", or judging what breaks if a signature/schema/contract changes. Owns the investigation and the real-vs-fake test; `writing-task-specs` renders the result into a spec and `task-tracker` records the edge.
