Orient
Use this skill for Shape Up step 7 (Orient) — the builder-led reconnaissance pass that runs AFTER kick-off and BEFORE any task board exists. Triggers on: \"orient on this feature\", \"scout the codebase for this pitch\", \"where does this pitch touch the code\", \"do an orient pass\", \"recon before we plan\", \"spike the riskiest part before mapping scopes\". The tech-lead orchestrator invokes i…
Spec Evaluator
Use this skill whenever the user wants to evaluate, QA, or verify that an implemented task actually matches its spec and acceptance criteria — the judge in a planner→generator→evaluator harness. Trigger on: \"evaluate task TASK-NNN\", \"QA TASK-NNN\", \"verify against spec\", \"check acceptance criteria\", \"does this match the spec\", \"grade this build\", \"run evaluator\", or a tech-lead --ord…
Solution Architect
Use this skill to design how each use-case's engine integrates into the running application — the wiring map that guarantees no engine ships orphaned. Triggers on: \"write the wiring map\", \"declare the integration seam for each use case\", \"how does each use case get wired in\", \"map engines to the entry point\", \"which use cases are reachable from the composition root\", \"the asset pipelin…

Tech Lead
Use this skill whenever the user wants to orchestrate a whole feature end-to-end across the harness skills — ba-pitch-analyzer (planner), task-executor (generator), spec-evaluator (judge) — acting as the tech lead that owns the run and reports to the PO at round boundaries. Trigger on: \"run the full harness\", \"act as tech lead\", \"ship this feature end to end\", \"from pitch to ship\", \"orch…

Qa Edge Hunter
Use this skill for the post-PASS exploratory QA pass — Shape Up's \"QA is for the edges\", made explicit for the harness. Triggers on: \"hunt edge cases\", \"QA pass on this feature\", \"exploratory test the running app\", \"edge hunt before ship\", \"run qa-edge-hunter\", \"the evaluator passed — what did it miss?\". tech-lead invokes it after the run's first PASS at GATE L3, before SHIP; it als…
Task Executor
Use this skill whenever a user wants to execute, implement, or run a specific task generated by the ba-pitch-analyzer skill. Triggers on: \"execute task TASK-NNN\", \"implement TASK-NNN\", \"run this task\", \"start working on TASK-NNN\", \"implement the task in [folder]\", \"run task from spec folder\", \"pick up the next task\", or a tech-lead --order dispatch. Implements a task's acceptance cr…
Coach
Use this skill to turn raw Product Owner / Tech Lead feedback at the Ship Sign-off (L4 Gate) into structured, team-shared guidelines that future harness runs read back. Triggers on: \"coach this feedback\", \"record this for next sprint\", \"update the knowledge base\", \"RLHF the harness\", and Vietnamese \"ghi lại cho sprint sau\", \"cập nhật knowledge base\". tech-lead invokes it automatically…
Ba Pitch Analyzer
Use this skill whenever a user provides a product requirement, pitch, or feature description and wants it broken down into structured, executable development tasks. Triggers on: \"analyze this pitch\", \"break this into tasks\", \"generate tasks from requirement\", \"act as BA\", \"create spec from PRD\", \"turn this into dev tasks\", or any request to decompose a feature into DDD-structured docu…
Scope Architect
Use this skill to map the vertical scopes of a feature — Shape Up's \"map the scopes\" (step 8) as committed, mechanically enforceable contracts. Triggers on: \"map the scopes\", \"write the scope contracts\", \"scope contract\", \"the discovered tasks don't fit any scope\", \"re-slice the substrate\" (operations map-scopes). Writes the committed scopes/*.md contracts by import-graph slicing alon…
Scope Hammer
Use this skill whenever a Shape Up build run reaches its stop condition — the circuit breaker (round budget or a scope's attempt budget) trips, or all scopes finish and it's time to decide when to stop (step 11) — and needs a must-have census, a baseline-anchored cut list, and a ship verdict. Trigger on: \"scope hammer\", \"hammer this down to must-haves\", \"decide when to stop\", \"cut list vs…
Translator
Use this skill whenever intake for the harness (pitch, PRD, requirement, transcript, or any spec input) is in a non-English language and must be normalized to English BEFORE planning/building. The single language gate for the planner→generator→judge harness. Triggers on: \"translate this pitch\", \"normalize to English\", \"this requirement is in Vietnamese\", \"prepare intake for the harness\",…
