258codebase-study-guide
Generate a pedagogically-grounded study guide for learning an unfamiliar codebase. Use when the user wants to onboard onto a codebase, understand a project's architecture, create learning materials for a team, or asks things like \"help me learn this codebase\", \"create an onboarding guide\", \"I'm new to this project\", \"how does this system work\", \"study guide for this repo\", or \"explain this codebase to me\". Produces a structured document that builds understanding from purpose to systems to patterns, using evidence-based learning techniques (elaborative interrogation, concept mapping, threshold concepts, worked examples, progressive disclosure).
143unix-macos-engineer
Expert Unix and macOS systems engineer for shell scripting, system administration, command-line tools, launchd, Homebrew, networking, and low-level system tasks. Use when the user asks about Unix commands, shell scripts, macOS system configuration, process management, or troubleshooting system issues.
86interaction-design
Design intuitive, meaningful interactions grounded in user goals and cognitive principles. Use when designing component behaviors, user flows, feedback systems, error handling, loading states, transitions, accessibility, keyboard navigation, touch/gesture interactions, or when evaluating interaction quality. Also use for modal vs modeless decisions, direct manipulation patterns, input device considerations, emotional/dramatic aspects of UX, or when asked about making interfaces feel responsive, humane, and goal-directed.
66explainer-visuals
Create high-quality animated explainer visuals for essays and blog posts. Use when the user wants to visualize concepts, processes, data, or ideas with interactive web animations. Triggers on requests like "create a visual for", "animate this concept", "make an explainer", "visualize this idea", "diagram this process", "show this data", or when essay content would benefit from visual explanation. Handles abstract concepts (mental models, frameworks), technical processes (algorithms, systems), and data visualization (trends, comparisons). Outputs self-contained HTML/CSS/JS that embeds directly in web content.
53proposal-review
Facilitate methodical review of proposals (technical designs, product specs, feature requests). Use when asked to "review this proposal", "give feedback on this doc", "help me review this RFC", or when presented with a document that needs structured feedback. Handles markdown files, GitHub gists/issues/PRs, and other text formats. Chunks proposals intelligently, predicts reviewer reactions, and produces feedback adapted to the proposal's format.
