Audit an existing application or guide a new build for AI governance — classifying every function as DETERMINISTIC, AI-ADVISORY, or AI-OPERATIONAL, identifying risk, and recommending hardening. Use when the user asks to "audit AI usage", "check governance", "review where AI is used", "assess AI risk", "governance review", "lock down AI", or when planning a new feature that involves AI and the user wants to understand where AI should vs. shouldn't be used. Also use when the user wants to evaluate whether a component should use AI or deterministic code.
Complete git workflow for a phase - branch, commit, merge, cleanup
Systematic root cause analysis for bugs and failures. Use when something is broken, failing, or behaving unexpectedly — not for quick typos or obvious one-line fixes. Trigger on "diagnose this", "root cause", "why is this broken", "this isn't working", "investigate this error", "what's causing this", "trace this issue". Also use when /execute-phase Layer 1 or Layer 2 fails twice on the same task.
Execute an approved implementation plan, with automated testing, UI verification, and acceptance-criteria review built into every task. Use this skill whenever the user is ready to start building — trigger on phrases like "execute phase X", "implement the plan", "let's start building", "start coding", "build this out", "time to code", "build phase X", "start phase X", "implement phase X", "let's build this", "start the build", "go ahead and build". Also trigger immediately after the user approves output from /plan-phase. Don't wait to be asked explicitly — if a plan exists and the user says something like "looks good, let's go", this is the right skill.
