Connect Nudge to a coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor) over MCP so it can drop tasks, reminders, notes, and links into Nudge from the editor. Use when the user says "connect Nudge", "set up the Nudge MCP", "add Nudge to Claude Code / Codex / Cursor", or when the Nudge capture skill reports its tools aren't available. Optional and recommended — never force it on the user.
Capture tasks, reminders, notes, and links into Nudge (a voice assistant for developers) via its MCP tools — without leaving the editor. Use when the user says "remind me to…", "add a task", "note that…", "save this link", "don't let me forget…", or wants to stash something for later while coding. Requires the Nudge MCP server (mcp__nudge__* tools) to be connected.
Ultra-compressed communication mode. Cuts token usage ~75% by dropping filler, articles, and pleasantries while keeping full technical accuracy. Use when user says "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", "use caveman", "less tokens", "be brief", or invokes /caveman.
Optimize AI agent context for maximum effectiveness using a 5-level hierarchy. Use when setting up a new project for AI-assisted development, when Codex keeps losing context, when responses are inconsistent across sessions, or when you want to reduce token waste. Also use when asked about "context", "rules files", or "how to set up Codex for this project".
Plan and execute deprecation and migration paths for APIs, dependencies, or patterns. Ensures nothing breaks during transition. Use when removing old code, upgrading dependencies, migrating between APIs, or when user mentions "deprecate", "migrate", "upgrade", "remove old", or "phase out".
Generate multiple radically different interface designs for a module using parallel sub-agents, then compare on simplicity, depth, and correctness of use. Based on "Design It Twice" from A Philosophy of Software Design. Use when user wants to design an API, explore interface options, compare module shapes, or mentions "design it twice".
Grilling session that challenges your plan against the existing domain model, sharpens terminology, and updates documentation (CONTEXT.md, ADRs) inline as decisions crystallise. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan against their project's language and documented decisions.
Edit and improve articles by restructuring sections as a DAG respecting information dependencies, then rewriting each section for clarity and flow. Max 240 characters per paragraph. Use when user wants to edit, revise, or improve an article draft.
