brainstorm
Brainstorm - Requirements Discovery (AI Coding Enhanced)
Guide AI through collaborative requirements discovery before implementation, optimized for AI coding workflows:
- Task-first (capture ideas immediately)
- Action-before-asking (reduce low-value questions)
- Research-first for technical choices (avoid asking users to invent options)
- Diverge → Converge (expand thinking, then lock MVP)
When to Use
Triggered from $start when the user describes a development task, especially when:
- requirements are unclear or evolving
- there are multiple valid implementation paths
- trade-offs matter (UX, reliability, maintainability, cost, performance)
- the user might not know the best options up front

trellis-meta
Understand and customize the local Trellis architecture inside a user project. Use when modifying .trellis plus platform hooks, settings, agents, skills, commands, prompts, or workflows generated by trellis init.
175cc-codex-spec-bootstrap
Claude Code + Codex parallel pipeline for bootstrapping Trellis coding specs. CC analyzes the repo with GitNexus (knowledge graph) + ABCoder (AST), creates Trellis task PRDs with full architectural context and MCP tool instructions, then Codex agents run those tasks in parallel to fill spec files. Use when: bootstrapping coding guidelines, setting up Trellis specs, 'bootstrap specs for codex', 'create spec tasks', 'CC + Codex spec pipeline', 'initialize coding guidelines with code intelligence'. Also triggers when user wants to set up GitNexus or ABCoder MCP for multi-agent spec generation.
89break-loop
Deep post-fix bug analysis across five dimensions: root cause categorization, fix failure analysis, prevention mechanisms, systematic expansion, and knowledge capture. Updates .trellis/spec/ guides with lessons learned to prevent recurring bugs. Use when a debugging session completes, after fixing a tricky bug, when the same class of bug keeps recurring, or when you want to capture debugging insights into project documentation.
34record-session
Records completed work progress to .trellis/workspace/ journal files after human testing and commit. Captures session summaries, commit hashes, and updates developer index files for future session context. Use when a coding session is complete, after the human has committed code, or to persist session knowledge for future AI sessions.
32start
Initializes an AI development session by reading workflow guides, developer identity, git status, active tasks, and project guidelines from .trellis/. Classifies incoming tasks and routes to brainstorm, direct edit, or task workflow. Use when beginning a new coding session, resuming work, starting a new task, or re-establishing project context.
30finish-work
Pre-commit quality checklist covering lint, typecheck, tests, code-spec sync, API changes, database migrations, cross-layer verification, and manual testing. Blocks commit if infra or cross-layer specs lack executable depth. Use when code is written and tested but not yet committed, before submitting changes, or as a final review before git commit.
