Use when doing any creative work — creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.
Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior, before proposing fixes
Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute with review checkpoints
Use when implementation is complete and all tests pass — guides completion by presenting structured options for merge, PR, or cleanup
Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions — requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement
Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements

## Common Mistakes
What goes wrong + fixes.
name: lowercase, hyphens, 1–64 chars, must match directory namedescription: start with "Use when...", max 1024 chars, describe triggers NOT workflowCritical: Description = WHEN to use, NOT what the skill does. Testing shows agents follow descriptions as shortcuts and skip the full skill body.
Run a pressure scenario with a subagent WITHOUT the skill. Document:
Write skill addressing the specific failures observed. Run same scenario WITH skill — agent should now comply.
Agent found a new rationalization? Add explicit counter. Re-test.
Do create for: Reusable techniques, non-obvious patterns, cross-project workflows Don't create for: One-off solutions, project-specific config, mechanically enforceable rules
