skillmarket install greatsage_sh/ask-mattReview the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along two axes — Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding standards?) and Spec (does the code match what the originating issue/PRD asked for?). Runs both reviews in parallel sub-agents and reports them side by side. Use when the user wants to review a branch, a PR, work-in-progress changes, or asks to "review since X".
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/code-reviewShared vocabulary for designing deep modules. Use when the user wants to design or improve a module's interface, find deepening opportunities, decide where a seam goes, make code more testable or AI-navigable, or when another skill needs the deep-module vocabulary.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/codebase-designDiagnosis loop for hard bugs and performance regressions. Use when the user says "diagnose"/"debug this", or reports something broken/throwing/failing/slow.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/diagnosing-bugsBuild and sharpen a project's domain model. Use when the user wants to pin down domain terminology or a ubiquitous language, record an architectural decision, or when another skill needs to maintain the domain model.

skillmarket install greatsage_sh/edit-articleSet up Claude Code hooks to block dangerous git commands (push, reset --hard, clean, branch -D, etc.) before they execute. Use when user wants to prevent destructive git operations, add git safety hooks, or block git push/reset in Claude Code.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/git-guardrails-claude-codeA relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/grill-meA relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design, which also creates docs (ADR's and glossary) as we go.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/grill-with-docsGrill the user relentlessly about a plan, decision, or idea. Use when the user wants to stress-test their thinking, or uses any 'grill' trigger phrases.

skillmarket install greatsage_sh/handoffImplement a piece of work based on a spec or set of tickets.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/implementScan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/improve-codebase-architectureMigrate test files from `as` type assertions to @total-typescript/shoehorn. Use when user mentions shoehorn, wants to replace `as` in tests, or needs partial test data.

skillmarket install greatsage_sh/obsidian-vaultBuild a throwaway prototype to answer a design question. Use when the user wants to sanity-check whether a state model or logic feels right, or explore what a UI should look like.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/prototypeInvestigate a question against high-trust primary sources and capture the findings as a Markdown file in the repo. Use when the user wants a topic researched, docs or API facts gathered, or reading legwork delegated to a background agent.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/researchUse when you need to resolve an in-progress git merge/rebase conflict.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/resolving-merge-conflictsCreate exercise directory structures with sections, problems, solutions, and explainers that pass linting. Use when user wants to scaffold exercises, create exercise stubs, or set up a new course section.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/scaffold-exercisesConfigure this repo for the engineering skills — set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the other engineering skills.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/setup-matt-pocock-skillsSet up Husky pre-commit hooks with lint-staged (Prettier), type checking, and tests in the current repo. Use when user wants to add pre-commit hooks, set up Husky, configure lint-staged, or add commit-time formatting/typechecking/testing.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/setup-pre-commitTest-driven development. Use when the user wants to build features or fix bugs test-first, mentions "red-green-refactor", or wants integration tests.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/tddTeach the user a new skill or concept, within this workspace.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/teachTurn the current conversation into a spec and publish it to the project issue tracker — no interview, just synthesis of what you've already discussed.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/to-specBreak a plan, spec, or the current conversation into a set of tracer-bullet tickets, each declaring its blocking edges, published to the configured tracker — edges as text in one file per ticket locally, or native blocking links on a real tracker.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/to-ticketsMove issues and external PRs through a state machine of triage roles — categorise, verify, grill if needed, and write agent-ready briefs.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/triagePlan a huge chunk of work — more than one agent session can hold — as a shared map of decision tickets on your issue tracker, and resolve them one at a time until the way to the destination is clear.
skillmarket install greatsage_sh/wayfinderReference for writing and editing skills well — the vocabulary and principles that make a skill predictable.
