Generate publication-grade ML explainer videos and carousels the way 3Blue1Brown actually builds them — in real manimGL (NOT Manim Community Edition), as a tiny domain DSL of self-arranging Mobjects choreographed into transform-driven beats where every motion carries meaning. Overlap is prevented at construction time, not policed after render. Use for: 3b1b-style ML videos, paper-figure animations, IG carousels, infographics, posters.

Write, format, and export professional academic research papers as publication-ready PDFs using reportlab. Use this skill whenever the user wants to write a research paper, preprint, white paper, literature review, position paper, or technical report — whether from scratch, from notes, or from an existing draft. Also trigger when the user asks to convert markdown/text into an academic PDF, needs SSRN/arXiv submission preparation, or wants tables, figures, and references formatted for publication. Trigger on: "write a paper", "preprint", "format as research paper", "turn my notes/draft into a paper", "academic PDF", "SSRN", "arXiv", "research report", "literature synthesis", "position paper", "white paper", "publish my research". Even if the user just provides a markdown file and says "make this a PDF", use this skill if the content is scholarly/research-oriented.

Autonomous deep research agent that reads all files in the active directory, performs exhaustive multi-round literature research using web search and Brightdata scraping tools, iterates through self-critique loops, and produces a novel, publication-quality research paper as a formatted PDF. Trigger on: "research this", "do a literature review", "write a research paper from these files", "find what's missing in the literature", "autonomous research", "deep research", "novel research", "investigate this topic", "analyze the literature", or any request to turn seed material into a professional research output. Also trigger when the user uploads academic papers, notes, or datasets and asks Claude to "find gaps", "what's novel here", "what hasn't been studied", or "build on this".

Reflective pass over your memory files — merge duplicates, fix stale facts, prune the index.

Audit and harden existing codebases (especially AI-generated / vibe-coded ones) for production readiness. Use when the user asks to review, audit, clean up, harden, deslop, refactor, or fix quality issues across an existing codebase. Works in two phases — first a thorough multi-pass audit written to a structured file, then systematic fixes applied in safety-tiered order. Language-agnostic. Does NOT change business logic — only hardens, cleans, and robustifies.

Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files). Triggers include: any mention of 'Word doc', 'word document', '.docx', or requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of contents, headings, page numbers, or letterheads. Also use when extracting or reorganizing content from .docx files, inserting or replacing images in documents, performing find-and-replace in Word files, working with tracked changes or comments, or converting content into a polished Word document. If the user asks for a 'report', 'memo', 'letter', 'template', or similar deliverable as a Word or .docx file, use this skill. Do NOT use for PDFs, spreadsheets, Google Docs, or general coding tasks unrelated to document generation.

Use this skill any time the user wants to FIND specific people online and put them in a spreadsheet — recruiting candidates, sales prospects, outreach lists, research participants, journalist sources, podcast guests, influencer lists, lead lists, beta testers, advisors, or hires. Triggers on "find me N people who…", "build a list of contacts who…", "source candidates for…", "I need 50 prospects who…", "scrape Reddit/LinkedIn/X for [persona]", "build a Google sheet of people who…", "prospect list", "lead list", "candidate list", "outreach list", "shortlist of [role]", or any variant where the deliverable is a structured list of named individuals with contact info and personalized notes. Runs iterative BrightData scraping across LinkedIn, Reddit, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, GitHub, forums; uses the worldbuilder lens for per-person commentary and outreach angles; outputs a multi-sheet xlsx (Google-Sheets-compatible). Prefer this over generic web search whenever the deliverable is a list of people.

Use this skill any time a .pptx file is involved in any way — as input, output, or both. This includes: creating slide decks, pitch decks, or presentations; reading, parsing, or extracting text from any .pptx file (even if the extracted content will be used elsewhere, like in an email or summary); editing, modifying, or updating existing presentations; combining or splitting slide files; working with templates, layouts, speaker notes, or comments. Trigger whenever the user mentions "deck," "slides," "presentation," or references a .pptx filename, regardless of what they plan to do with the content afterward. If a .pptx file needs to be opened, created, or touched, use this skill.

Use this skill for any graphic design task — posters, flyers, social media posts, carousels, LinkedIn banners, YouTube thumbnails, infographics, ad creatives, brand visuals, pitch decks, event invites, merch, or any "design me a ___ / make a visual for ___ / I need a poster / create a graphic / design a thumbnail" request. Trigger even when the user just hands over a topic ("design something for my AI startup") and expects a finished visual. Runs the full pro workflow: iterative BrightData scraping of Reddit/LinkedIn/Facebook/Instagram/research papers to understand the topic, audience modeling via the worldbuilder lens, copy written via worldbuilder-writing, real visual references mined from Behance/Pinterest/Dribbble, and output through Canva, HTML/CSS, SVG, or PDF. Prefer this over frontend-design when the deliverable is a marketing/graphic asset rather than a web UI.

Create a scheduled task that can be run on demand or automatically on an interval.

Use this skill for ANY writing, persuasion, communication, or content creation task — blog posts, cold emails, pitch decks, scripts, tweets, landing pages, essays, cover letters, sales copy, storytelling, speeches, proposals, or any text meant to change what someone thinks, feels, or does. Also use when the user asks for help with prompting, prompt engineering, or getting better outputs from AI. Trigger whenever the user says "write", "draft", "convince", "persuade", "pitch", "explain to", "sell", "position", "frame", "story", "narrative", "content", "copy", "script", "email", "post", "article", or any variant. This skill treats writing as applied psychology and world-building — not self-expression. If someone needs words that WORK on a reader, use this skill.

Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
