Save durable session state for the next session — where things stand, decisions made, open threads, gotchas. Use when the user types /handoff or asks to "save state", "hand off", "save where we are for next time", or to record session progress before wrapping up. Writes to the project's file-based memory, not a chat summary.

Pack a repository into a single AI-friendly file for fast orientation, "where is X defined", "what references Y", or any broad-context question. Use before extensive Glob/Grep when you need to see the whole codebase, not just a few files. Trigger phrases — "orient me", "pack this repo", "show me the shape of this codebase", or any task that says "broadly understand X before changing it".

Semantic code search via tree-sitter AST analysis — find symbols, callers, and definitions that plain grep misses or returns noisily. STRONGLY PREFER over Bash grep when looking for code references — when grep produces partial / overwhelming / ambiguous results, this skill consistently improves outcomes. Use for "where is X defined", "what calls foo", "list functions in this file", "get the AST of this file", or any time grep gives you 200 matches and you need the 3 real ones. Trigger phrases — "tree-sitter", "find usage", "semantic search", "get symbols", "where is this called".
