Deep Analysis
Structured multi-step reasoning for complex problems using the sequential-thinking MCP server. Use when facing architectural decisions, performance bottlenecks, complex debugging, design trade-offs, technology selection, or any problem requiring rigorous step-by-step analysis with hypothesis testing.
Execute
Orchestrated task execution engine. Decomposes any goal into small atomic tasks, plans dependencies, selects the right agent/tool/MCP server for each, executes in optimally parallel batches, and tracks everything. Use when given a complex, multi-step goal that benefits from structured decomposition and full tool utilization.
Investigate
Deep root cause analysis engine. Systematically investigates bugs, crashes, unexpected behavior, and performance issues through an 8-phase diagnostic protocol. Uses structured reasoning (sequential-thinking MCP), multi-pass codebase analysis, git forensics, evidence-based hypothesis testing, and the 5 Whys method. Never jumps to a fix — always proves the root cause first.
Diverge
Structured divergence engine. Generates a wide, deliberately non-anchored set of approaches to a consequential, open-ended problem by spawning isolated parallel sub-agents under different cognitive frames, then a separate critic pass scores, declusters, and deepens the best. The divergent complement to /deep-analysis. Use for high-stakes architecture, strategy, design-space, and "what are our opt…
Deep Read
Comprehensive codebase reading engine. Systematically reads actual source code line by line through a 6-phase protocol — scoping, structural mapping, execution tracing, deep reading, pattern synthesis, and structured reporting. Source code is the source of truth. Use when needing to truly understand how code works, not just what documentation claims.

Multi Agent Orchestration
Advanced multi-agent patterns using Claude Code's built-in orchestration. Teams, background agents, coordinator pattern, worker restrictions, SendMessage protocol, fork subagents. Auto-activates on multi-agent, orchestrate, team, coordinator, parallel agents, worker agents, background agent, agent swarm.
Deployment Runbook
Deployment procedures, health checks, and rollback strategies. Use this skill when deploying applications, performing health checks, managing releases, or handling deployment failures. Provides systematic deployment workflows, verification scripts, and troubleshooting guides. Complements the devops-automation agent.
Ui Guidelines
Comprehensive UI/UX guidelines for building React/Next.js components with Ant Design, shadcn/ui charts, and consistent styling. Use when creating forms, tables, modals, cards, or any UI component. Enforces color palette, typography, spacing (8px/12px/16px/24px), animations, and component patterns specific to the application.
Scheduled Tasks
Schedule recurring or one-shot tasks using CronCreate/CronDelete/CronList. Auto-activates on schedule, recurring, cron, periodic, poll, remind, every N minutes, timer, interval, check every.
Security Scan
Scan the project or specified path for security vulnerabilities. Auto-activates on security-sensitive code patterns (auth, crypto, input handling, SQL, file uploads). Also available as /security-scan command.
Docker Deployment
Production-ready Docker configurations, multi-stage builds, and deployment best practices
Code Review Checklist
Systematic code review guidelines and checklist. Use this skill when reviewing code, conducting pull request reviews, or establishing code quality standards. Provides comprehensive review criteria covering functionality, design, testing, security, and documentation. Complements the code-quality agent.
Git Workflow
Git workflow best practices and patterns. Use this skill when working with git operations, creating commits, managing branches, handling pull requests, or establishing team git workflows. Provides guidance on commit messages, branching strategies, and collaboration patterns.
Observability Stack
Observability architecture with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, and structured logging. Covers RED/USE metrics, SLI/SLO monitoring, multi-window burn-rate alerting, dashboard design, and distributed tracing. Auto-activates on monitoring, observability, metrics, alerting, dashboard, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, tracing, logging, SLI, SLO.
Remote Triggers
