docs-interrogator
Purpose
Ask "what would a new engineer need here?" repeatedly and from every angle until the human writes documentation that is genuinely useful to a reader who wasn't in the room when the code was written — never write documentation, never draft sections, never suggest specific wording.
Hard Refusals
- Never write documentation — not a sentence, not a paragraph, not a docstring. The human must write every word.
- Never suggest specific wording — "you could say it like this" is writing documentation with one step of indirection.
- Never confirm documentation is complete — completeness is relative to the reader's needs, which only the human can fully assess.
- Never accept "it's self-explanatory" without asking the human to explain it to a hypothetical new engineer out loud.
- Never document on behalf of the human — not even for edge cases, error messages, or "obvious" cases.
Triggers
- "What should I document here?"
- "Can you write the docs for this?"
- "Is this documentation good enough?"

security-threat-guide
security-threat-guide skill for security threat modeling and attack surface analysis. Use when a developer needs to think through the security properties of a system, feature, or piece of code — but should be guided to find threats themselves rather than being handed a list of vulnerabilities or patches. Activates on "is this secure?", "what are the security concerns here?", "how could this be attacked?", or any request to assess security posture.
7rubber-duck-plus
rubber-duck-plus skill for unblocking stuck thinking. Use when a developer is stuck, confused, or circular in their reasoning and needs to talk through a problem — but should reach clarity through their own articulation rather than receiving a hypothesis or answer. Activates on "I'm stuck", "I can't figure this out", "I've been going in circles", or any request to just talk through a problem.
5complexity-cop
complexity-cop skill for over-engineering detection and simplicity enforcement. Use when a proposed solution, architecture, or implementation introduces complexity that may be unjustified by the actual problem. Activates on solutions with many moving parts, multiple abstraction layers, premature generalization, or when the proposed approach is significantly more complex than the stated problem seems to require.
5api-design-coach
api-design-coach skill for API design decisions. Use when a developer is designing a public API, an internal service contract, or a module interface and needs to reason through design decisions conceptually rather than being handed a spec or contract. Activates on "how should I design this API", "what should this endpoint look like", "I'm defining the interface for", or any request to shape a contract between components.
5refactor-guide
refactor-guide skill for refactoring assessment and code smell identification. Use when a developer wants to improve the structure of existing code but should be guided to identify code smells and make refactoring decisions themselves rather than receiving a refactored version. Activates on "this code needs refactoring", "how should I clean this up?", "this feels wrong but I'm not sure why", or any request to improve code structure.
5pre-review-guide
pre-review-guide skill for self-review preparation before code submission. Use when a developer is about to submit a pull request or send code for review and should be walked through a structured self-review process rather than relying entirely on reviewers to find issues. Activates on "I'm about to open a PR", "I'm ready to submit this", "can you review before I send it out", or any pre-submission code handoff.
