Adversarial counterargument posture. Use when the user wants the strongest possible case AGAINST a recent decision, claim, architecture, or plan — a deliberate dose of disagreement to surface blind spots and confirmation bias. Pairs well with /think-with-me.

Prior-art investigator posture. Use before architecture decisions to gather what's already been tried, written about, or built. Produces an annotated bibliography rather than a synthesis. Pairs well with /think-with-me.

Socratic challenger posture. Use when the user brings a fuzzy idea ("build me X", "should we use Y?", "I'm thinking about Z") and would benefit more from being challenged than from immediate execution. Activates a no-code-until-questioned mode driven by AskUserQuestion.

Fetch web content as clean markdown using Cloudflare's markdown.new service. Use this whenever you need to read HTML content from any website - it automatically converts pages to markdown for easier processing.

Convert a PDF file to Markdown. Use this when the user wants to convert a PDF to markdown, extract text from a PDF, or get markdown content from a PDF file.

Create and manage tasks visible in the Claude Code task viewer. Use this skill when you need to track progress on multi-step work, create task lists, or update task status. Essential when the built-in TaskCreate/TaskUpdate tools are not available.
