Each project can declare which skills it needs. When team members enter the directory (via direnv), skills are symlinked from the Nix store into `.claude/skills/` and `.opencode/skills/`.

# Session Summary
**Date:** 2026-01-13 (Continuation of HQ multi-agent architecture work)
**Focus Area:** Making HQ deployable, adding Codex support to skills infrastructure
# Accomplishments
- [x] Ran orch consensus on HQ architecture - received comprehensive feedback from GPT-5.2
- [x] Filed orch bug report (orch-d08) for Gemini/OpenRouter model failures
- [x] Created worker release documentation (`docs/releasing-worker.md`)
- [x] Created nix package template (`pkgs/worker/default.nix`)
- [x] Built and released worker v0.1.0 tarball (327KB)
- [x] Added `hq` and `review-gate` to `skills.nix`
- [x] Created comprehensive `skills/hq/README.md` deployment guide
- [x] Updated `skills/hq/SKILL.md` with requirements table and model config
- [x] Filed dotfiles-u96: Add worker CLI package
- [x] Filed dotfiles-ha0: Add Codex skills deployment
- [x] Added `codexSkills` option to ai-skills nix module
- [x] Added Codex per-repo support to `use-skills.sh`
- [x] Closed skills-legi: Codex per-repo skills support
# Key Decisions
## Decision 1: Binary release distribution (like beads)
- **Context:** worker CLI is a Nim binary needing distribution for HQ to work
- **Options considered:**
1. Build from source in nix flake (requires Nim, lockfile complexity)
2. Binary releases via git forge (simple, like beads pattern)
3. Separate worker flake (overkill)
- **Rationale:** Option 2 matches existing beads pattern, simple to implement
- **Impact:** Tarball committed to repo, fetchable via git forge raw URL
## Decision 2: Extend ai-skills module for Codex
- **Context:** Codex loads skills from `~/.codex/skills/`, not covered by existing module
- **Options considered:**
1. Extend ai-skills module with `codexSkills` option
2. Symlink approach in home-manager
3. Use Codex's skill-installer
- **Rationale:** Option 1 keeps consistent pattern with Claude/OpenCode
- **Impact:** Single config manages all three agent skill deployments
## Decision 3: Per-repo Codex skills via CODEX_HOME
- **Context:** `use-skills.sh` deploys to `.claude/skills/` and `.opencode/skills/`
- **Rationale:** Check for `CODEX_HOME` env var, deploy to `$CODEX_HOME/skills/` if set
- **Impact:** Users set `export CODEX_HOME="$PWD/.codex"` in .envrc for per-repo Codex skills
# Problems & Solutions
| Problem | Solution | Learning |
|---------|----------|----------|
| Orch consensus failed for Gemini/OpenRouter models | Filed bug orch-d08; models work via `llm` directly but fail through orch | Issue in async model loading, not API keys |
| Can't merge integration→master (worktree conflict) | Left on integration branch, documented for later | Beads worktree setup blocks ff-merge |
| releases/ was gitignored | Un-ignored and committed tarball directly | 327KB small enough for git |
| No URL for worker binary | Committed to repo, accessible via git forge raw URL | `https://git.clarun.xyz/.../releases/worker_0.1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz` |
# Technical Details
## Code Changes
- Total files modified: 16
- Key files changed:
- `modules/ai-skills.nix` - Added `codexSkills` option and deployment
- `bin/use-skills.sh` - Added `$CODEX_HOME/skills/` symlink support
- `skills/hq/SKILL.md` - Model config section, explicit `--model sonnet-4.5`
- `skills/hq/README.md` - Comprehensive deployment guide
- `pkgs/worker/default.nix` - Nix package template for worker CLI
- New files created:
- `docs/releasing-worker.md` - Build and release process
- `releases/worker_0.1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz` - Binary release
- `skills/hq/README.md` - Deployment documentation
## Commands Used
```bash
# Create release tarball
tar -czvf "releases/worker_${VERSION}_linux_amd64.tar.gz" \
-C src worker.out --transform "s/worker.out/worker/"
# Get SHA256 for nix
nix hash to-sri sha256:$(sha256sum releases/worker_0.1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz | cut -d' ' -f1)
# Result: sha256-Lz+gnjeedjwVV31rcijjQpMguMrBfvSfOUcOyLaFiI8=
# Clean up stale workers
worker cancel --taskId=skills-xyz --cleanup --reason="Stale from testing"
# Orch consensus (GPT worked, Gemini/OpenRouter failed)
orch consensus "architecture review..." flash gemini gpt --temperature 1.0
```
## Architecture Notes
### HQ Deployment Model
```
skills repo provides:
├── skills/hq/ # Skill files (SKILL.md, templates, scripts)
├── pkgs/worker/ # Nix package template
├── releases/ # Binary tarballs
└── modules/ai-skills.nix # Home-manager module
dotfiles configures:
├── pkgs/worker/ # Copy of nix package
├── home.packages # Install worker globally
└── services.ai-skills # Deploy skills to ~/.codex/skills/
```
### Cross-Agent Skills Flow
```
Global skills: nix flake → home-manager → ~/.claude/skills/
→ ~/.config/opencode/skills/
→ ~/.codex/skills/ (NEW)
Per-repo: .skills manifest → direnv → .claude/skills/
→ .opencode/skills/
→ $CODEX_HOME/skills/ (NEW)
```
# Process and Workflow
## What Worked Well
- Orch consensus provided valuable architecture feedback (even with only GPT)
- Following beads pattern for binary distribution kept things simple
- Filing issues for dotfiles keeps concerns separated
- Existing ai-skills module made Codex addition trivial
## What Was Challenging
- Orch model failures (Gemini, OpenRouter) - works directly via llm but not through orch
- Worktree blocking master branch merge
- Multiple layers of deployment (skills repo → dotfiles → user repos)
# Learning and Insights
## Technical Insights
- `llm` library plugins load correctly but orch's async model loading has issues
- Codex uses `~/.codex/skills/` (different from Claude/OpenCode patterns)
- Worker CLI is actually already installed globally via nix profile
- Tarball in git is fine for small binaries (~300KB)
## Process Insights
- Filing issues in downstream repos (dotfiles, orch) keeps separation clean
- Each repo handles its own concerns - skills provides, dotfiles integrates
## Architectural Insights
- Three-tier skill deployment: system (Codex built-in), global (home-manager), per-repo (direnv)
- Skills are portable across Claude/OpenCode/Codex - same SKILL.md format
- HQ depends on worker CLI which needs separate installation path
# Context for Future Work
## Open Questions
- How to merge integration→master with worktree conflict?
- Should orch handle model failures more gracefully?
- Best practice for worker version updates?
## Next Steps
- Dotfiles: Implement dotfiles-u96 (worker CLI package)
- Dotfiles: Implement dotfiles-ha0 (Codex skills deployment)
- Merge integration→master once worktree resolved
- Test full HQ workflow with Codex as orchestrator
## Related Work

- Previous: [[file:2026-01-11-worker-cli-cleanup-refactors.org][Worker CLI Cleanup]]
- Issues: dotfiles-u96 (worker package), dotfiles-ha0 (Codex skills), orch-d08 (model failures)
# Raw Notes
## Orch Consensus Summary (GPT-5.2)
Key feedback on HQ architecture:
- **Support** overall - "Git worktrees + explicit state machine + text-based skills makes the system portable"
- **Risk:** Split-brain state between SQLite, git, and bd comments
- **Gap:** Idempotency/crash recovery under-specified
- **Gap:** Implicit dependencies (same files) not detected
- **Suggestion:** WIP limit of 3-7 workers, measure review queue time
- **Suggestion:** Human checkpoints for security/auth, large refactors, >2 request-changes cycles

title: "Standardization of Skills Directory Structure"
date: 2026-01-14
keywords: [skills, refactor, standardization, codex, directory-structure, assets, references]
commits: 1
compression_status: uncompressed
---
# Session Summary
**Date:** 2026-01-14
**Focus Area:** Skills Repository Architecture and Standardization
# Accomplishments
- [x] Standardized skills directory structure to match Codex conventions
- [x] Renamed `templates/` directories to `assets/` in `worklog`, `template`, `review-gate`, and `hq` skills
- [x] Removed redundant `skills/` subdirectories from individual skill folders (e.g., `skills/worklog/skills`)
- [x] Moved loose documentation files to `references/` directories in `niri-window-capture` and `spec-review`
- [x] Updated all `SKILL.md` and `README.md` files to reference the new paths
- [x] Verified no broken references remained in the codebase
- [x] Closed issue `skills-zxek`
# Key Decisions
## Decision 1: Adopt `assets/` and `references/` convention
- **Context:** The skills repo had inconsistent naming (`templates/` vs `assets/`) and loose documentation files cluttering skill roots.
- **Options considered:**
1. Keep as is (mix of styles) - confusing for agents and users.
2. Adopt Codex standard (`assets/`, `references/`) - consistent, future-proof.
- **Rationale:** Codex uses `assets/` for templates and static files, and `references/` for context. Aligning with this standard ensures compatibility and reduces cognitive load for both human and AI agents.
- **Impact:** Cleaner directory structure, clearer file organization, better compatibility with Codex tools.
## Decision 2: Remove redundant `skills/` subdirectories
- **Context:** Many skills contained a nested `skills/` directory (e.g., `skills/worklog/skills/worklog.md`).
- **Rationale:** These were likely artifacts of previous build processes or redundant copies. They added noise and confusion.
- **Impact:** Reduced file count, removed potential for stale duplicate files.
# Problems & Solutions
| Problem | Solution | Learning |
|---------|----------|----------|
| `grep` failing on binary files | Used `grep -I` or ignored binary files explicitly | Use specific flags to avoid grep errors on binaries |
| Updating multiple file references | Used `replace` tool iteratively | Systematic search-and-replace is safer than bulk regex |
# Technical Details
## Code Changes
- Total files modified: ~39
- Key changes:
- `skills/worklog/templates/` -> `skills/worklog/assets/`
- `skills/hq/templates/` -> `skills/hq/assets/`
- `skills/review-gate/templates/` -> `skills/review-gate/assets/`
- Moved `skills/niri-window-capture/*.md` -> `skills/niri-window-capture/references/`
- Moved `skills/spec-review/*.md` -> `skills/spec-review/references/`
## Commands Used
```bash
# Rename templates to assets
[ -d skills/worklog/templates ] && mv skills/worklog/templates skills/worklog/assets
# Find references to update
grep -r "templates/" skills/ | grep -v "node_modules"
# Remove redundant subdirectories
rm -rf skills/*/skills
```
# Context for Future Work
## Next Steps
- Monitor for any broken links that might have been missed (though search was thorough).
- Encourage future skill creators to follow the `assets/` and `references/` pattern.
# Session Metrics
- Commits made: 1
- Files touched: 39
- Lines added/removed: +294/-2978 (large removal due to deleting redundant files)

- When user asks about AI tool status or versions
- Before/after updating tools
- When troubleshooting tool issues
## Commands
```bash
# Check all tools (human-readable)
ai-tools-doctor check
# Check all tools (machine-readable for parsing)
ai-tools-doctor check --json
# Exit code only (for scripts/hooks)
ai-tools-doctor check --quiet
# Sync npm tools to declared versions
ai-tools-doctor sync
```
## Managed Tools
| Tool | Source | Binary |
|------|--------|--------|
| claude-code | npm | `claude` |
| openai-codex | npm | `codex` |
| opencode | nix | `opencode` |
| beads | nix | `bd` |
## Output
### Human-readable (default)
```
beads (nix)
✓ 0.26.0
claude-code (npm)
✓ 2.0.55
```
### JSON (--json)
```json

"claude-code": {
"source": "npm",
"installed": "2.0.55",
"declared": "2.0.55",
"status": "ok"
}
}
}
```
## Status Values
- `ok` - Installed version matches declared
- `version_mismatch` - Installed differs from declared
- `not_installed` - Tool not found
## Exit Codes
- `0` - All tools match declared versions
- `1` - Mismatch or error
## Notes
- Nix tools are read-only (reports status, doesn't manage)

name: bd-issue-tracking
description: Track complex, multi-session work with dependency graphs using bd (beads) issue tracker. Use when work spans multiple sessions, has complex dependencies, or requires persistent context across compaction cycles. For simple single-session linear tasks, TodoWrite remains appropriate.
---
# bd Issue Tracking
## Overview
bd is a graph-based issue tracker for persistent memory across sessions. Use for multi-session work with complex dependencies; use TodoWrite for simple single-session tasks.
## When to Use bd vs TodoWrite
### Use bd when:
- **Multi-session work** - Tasks spanning multiple compaction cycles or days
- **Complex dependencies** - Work with blockers, prerequisites, or hierarchical structure
- **Knowledge work** - Strategic documents, research, or tasks with fuzzy boundaries
- **Side quests** - Exploratory work that might pause the main task
- **Project memory** - Need to resume work after weeks away with full context
### Use TodoWrite when:
- **Single-session tasks** - Work that completes within current session
- **Linear execution** - Straightforward step-by-step tasks with no branching
- **Immediate context** - All information already in conversation
- **Simple tracking** - Just need a checklist to show progress
**Key insight**: If resuming work after 2 weeks would be difficult without bd, use bd. If the work can be picked up from a markdown skim, TodoWrite is sufficient.
### Test Yourself: bd or TodoWrite?
Ask these questions to decide:
**Choose bd if:**
- ❓ "Will I need this context in 2 weeks?" → Yes = bd
- ❓ "Could conversation history get compacted?" → Yes = bd
- ❓ "Does this have blockers/dependencies?" → Yes = bd
- ❓ "Is this fuzzy/exploratory work?" → Yes = bd
**Choose TodoWrite if:**
- ❓ "Will this be done in this session?" → Yes = TodoWrite
- ❓ "Is this just a task list for me right now?" → Yes = TodoWrite
- ❓ "Is this linear with no branching?" → Yes = TodoWrite
**When in doubt**: Use bd. Better to have persistent memory you don't need than to lose context you needed.
**For detailed decision criteria and examples, read:** [references/BOUNDARIES.md](references/BOUNDARIES.md)
## Surviving Compaction Events
**Critical**: Compaction events delete conversation history but preserve beads. After compaction, bd state is your only persistent memory.
**What survives compaction:**
- All bead data (issues, notes, dependencies, status)
- Complete work history and context
**What doesn't survive:**
- Conversation history
- TodoWrite lists
- Recent discussion context
**Writing notes for post-compaction recovery:**
Write notes as if explaining to a future agent with zero conversation context:
**Pattern:**
```markdown
notes field format:
- COMPLETED: Specific deliverables ("implemented JWT refresh endpoint + rate limiting")
- IN PROGRESS: Current state + next immediate step ("testing password reset flow, need user input on email template")
- BLOCKERS: What's preventing progress
- KEY DECISIONS: Important context or user guidance
```
**After compaction:** `bd show <issue-id>` reconstructs full context from notes field.
### Notes Quality Self-Check
Before checkpointing (especially pre-compaction), verify your notes pass these tests:
**Future-me test**: "Could I resume this work in 2 weeks with zero conversation history?"
- [ ] What was completed? (Specific deliverables, not "made progress")
- [ ] What's in progress? (Current state + immediate next step)
- [ ] What's blocked? (Specific blockers with context)
- [ ] What decisions were made? (Why, not just what)
**Stranger test**: "Could another developer understand this without asking me?"
- [ ] Technical choices explained (not just stated)
- [ ] Trade-offs documented (why this approach vs alternatives)
- [ ] User input captured (decisions that came from discussion)
**Good note example:**
```
COMPLETED: JWT auth with RS256 (1hr access, 7d refresh tokens)
KEY DECISION: RS256 over HS256 per security review - enables key rotation
IN PROGRESS: Password reset flow - email service working, need rate limiting
BLOCKERS: Waiting on user decision: reset token expiry (15min vs 1hr trade-off)
NEXT: Implement rate limiting (5 attempts/15min) once expiry decided
```
**Bad note example:**
```
Working on auth. Made some progress. More to do.
```
**For complete compaction recovery workflow, read:** [references/WORKFLOWS.md](references/WORKFLOWS.md#compaction-survival)
## Session Start Protocol
**bd is available when:**
- Project has a `.beads/` directory (project-local database), OR
- `~/.beads/` exists (global fallback database for any directory)
**At session start, always check for bd availability and run ready check.**
### Session Start Checklist
Copy this checklist when starting any session where bd is available:
```
Session Start:
- [ ] Run bd ready --json to see available work
- [ ] Run bd list --status in_progress --json for active work
- [ ] If in_progress exists: bd show <issue-id> to read notes
- [ ] Report context to user: "X items ready: [summary]"
- [ ] If using global ~/.beads, mention this in report
- [ ] If nothing ready: bd blocked --json to check blockers
```
**Pattern**: Always check both `bd ready` AND `bd list --status in_progress`. Read notes field first to understand where previous session left off.
**Report format**:
- "I can see X items ready to work on: [summary]"
- "Issue Y is in_progress. Last session: [summary from notes]. Next: [from notes]. Should I continue with that?"
This establishes immediate shared context about available and active work without requiring user prompting.
**For detailed collaborative handoff process, read:** [references/WORKFLOWS.md](references/WORKFLOWS.md#session-handoff)
**Note**: bd auto-discovers the database:
- Uses `.beads/*.db` in current project if exists
- Falls back to `~/.beads/default.db` otherwise
- No configuration needed
### When No Work is Ready
If `bd ready` returns empty but issues exist:
```bash
bd blocked --json
```
Report blockers and suggest next steps.
---
## Progress Checkpointing
Update bd notes at these checkpoints (don't wait for session end):
**Critical triggers:**
- ⚠️ **Context running low** - User says "running out of context" / "approaching compaction" / "close to token limit"
- 📊 **Token budget > 70%** - Proactively checkpoint when approaching limits
- 🎯 **Major milestone reached** - Completed significant piece of work
- 🚧 **Hit a blocker** - Can't proceed, need to capture what was tried
- 🔄 **Task transition** - Switching issues or about to close this one
- ❓ **Before user input** - About to ask decision that might change direction
**Proactive monitoring during session:**
- At 70% token usage: "We're at 70% token usage - good time to checkpoint bd notes?"
- At 85% token usage: "Approaching token limit (85%) - checkpointing current state to bd"
- At 90% token usage: Automatically checkpoint without asking
**Current token usage**: Check `<system-warning>Token usage:` messages to monitor proactively.
**Checkpoint checklist:**
```
Progress Checkpoint:
- [ ] Update notes with COMPLETED/IN_PROGRESS/NEXT format
- [ ] Document KEY DECISIONS or BLOCKERS since last update
- [ ] Mark current status (in_progress/blocked/closed)
- [ ] If discovered new work: create issues with discovered-from
- [ ] Verify notes are self-explanatory for post-compaction resume
```
**Most important**: When user says "running out of context" OR when you see >70% token usage - checkpoint immediately, even if mid-task.
**Test yourself**: "If compaction happened right now, could future-me resume from these notes?"
---
### Database Selection
bd automatically selects the appropriate database:
- **Project-local** (`.beads/` in project): Used for project-specific work
- **Global fallback** (`~/.beads/`): Used when no project-local database exists
**Use case for global database**: Cross-project tracking, personal task management, knowledge work that doesn't belong to a specific project.
**When to use --db flag explicitly:**
- Accessing a specific database outside current directory
- Working with multiple databases (e.g., project database + reference database)
- Example: `bd --db /path/to/reference/terms.db list`
**Database discovery rules:**
- bd looks for `.beads/*.db` in current working directory
- If not found, uses `~/.beads/default.db`
- Shell cwd can reset between commands - use absolute paths with --db when operating on non-local databases
**For complete session start workflows, read:** [references/WORKFLOWS.md](references/WORKFLOWS.md#session-start)
## Core Operations
All bd commands support `--json` flag for structured output when needed for programmatic parsing.
### Essential Operations
**Check ready work:**
```bash
bd ready
bd ready --json # For structured output
bd ready --priority 0 # Filter by priority
bd ready --assignee alice # Filter by assignee
```
**Create new issue:**
**IMPORTANT**: Always quote title and description arguments with double quotes, especially when containing spaces or special characters.
```bash

## Field Usage Reference
Quick guide for when and how to use each bd field:
| Field | Purpose | When to Set | Update Frequency |
|-------|---------|-------------|------------------|
| **description** | Immutable problem statement | At creation | Never (fixed forever) |
| **design** | Initial approach, architecture, decisions | During planning | Rarely (only if approach changes) |
| **acceptance-criteria** | Concrete deliverables checklist (`- [ ]` syntax) | When design is clear | Mark `- [x]` as items complete |
| **notes** | Session handoff (COMPLETED/IN_PROGRESS/NEXT) | During work | At session end, major milestones |
| **status** | Workflow state (open→in_progress→closed) | As work progresses | When changing phases |
| **priority** | Urgency level (0=highest, 3=lowest) | At creation | Adjust if priorities shift |
**Key pattern**: Notes field is your "read me first" at session start. See [WORKFLOWS.md](references/WORKFLOWS.md#session-handoff) for session handoff details.

## Issue Lifecycle Workflow
### 1. Discovery Phase (Proactive Issue Creation)
**During exploration or implementation, proactively file issues for:**
- Bugs or problems discovered
- Potential improvements noticed
- Follow-up work identified
- Technical debt encountered
- Questions requiring research
**Pattern:**
```bash
# When encountering new work during a task:
bd create "Found: auth doesn't handle profile permissions"
bd dep add current-task-id new-issue-id --type discovered-from
# Continue with original task - issue persists for later
```
**Key benefit**: Capture context immediately instead of losing it when conversation ends.
### 2. Execution Phase (Status Maintenance)
**Mark issues in_progress when starting work:**
```bash
bd update issue-123 --status in_progress
```
**Update throughout work:**
```bash
# Add design notes as implementation progresses
bd update issue-123 --design "Using JWT with RS256 algorithm"
# Update acceptance criteria if requirements clarify
bd update issue-123 --acceptance "- JWT validation works\n- Tests pass\n- Error handling returns 401"
```
**Close when complete:**
```bash
bd close issue-123 --reason "Implemented JWT validation with tests passing"
```
**Important**: Closed issues remain in database - they're not deleted, just marked complete for project history.
### 3. Planning Phase (Dependency Graphs)
For complex multi-step work, structure issues with dependencies before starting:
**Create parent epic:**
```bash
bd create "Implement user authentication" -t epic -d "OAuth integration with JWT tokens"
```
**Create subtasks:**
```bash
bd create "Set up OAuth credentials" -t task
bd create "Implement authorization flow" -t task
bd create "Add token refresh" -t task
```
**Link with dependencies:**
```bash
# parent-child for epic structure
bd dep add auth-epic auth-setup --type parent-child
bd dep add auth-epic auth-flow --type parent-child
# blocks for ordering
bd dep add auth-setup auth-flow
```
**For detailed dependency patterns and types, read:** [references/DEPENDENCIES.md](references/DEPENDENCIES.md)
## Dependency Types Reference
bd supports four dependency types:
1. **blocks** - Hard blocker (issue A blocks issue B from starting)
2. **related** - Soft link (issues are related but not blocking)
3. **parent-child** - Hierarchical (epic/subtask relationship)
4. **discovered-from** - Provenance (issue B discovered while working on A)
**For complete guide on when to use each type with examples and patterns, read:** [references/DEPENDENCIES.md](references/DEPENDENCIES.md)
## Integration with TodoWrite
**Both tools complement each other at different timescales:**
### Temporal Layering Pattern
**TodoWrite** (short-term working memory - this hour):
- Tactical execution: "Review Section 3", "Expand Q&A answers"
- Marked completed as you go
- Present/future tense ("Review", "Expand", "Create")
- Ephemeral: Disappears when session ends
**Beads** (long-term episodic memory - this week/month):
- Strategic objectives: "Continue work on strategic planning document"
- Key decisions and outcomes in notes field
- Past tense in notes ("COMPLETED", "Discovered", "Blocked by")
- Persistent: Survives compaction and session boundaries
### The Handoff Pattern
1. **Session start**: Read bead → Create TodoWrite items for immediate actions
2. **During work**: Mark TodoWrite items completed as you go
3. **Reach milestone**: Update bead notes with outcomes + context
4. **Session end**: TodoWrite disappears, bead survives with enriched notes
**After compaction**: TodoWrite is gone forever, but bead notes reconstruct what happened.
### Example: TodoWrite tracks execution, Beads capture meaning
**TodoWrite:**
```
[completed] Implement login endpoint
[in_progress] Add password hashing with bcrypt
[pending] Create session middleware
```
**Corresponding bead notes:**
```
bd update issue-123 --notes "COMPLETED: Login endpoint with bcrypt password
hashing (12 rounds). KEY DECISION: Using JWT tokens (not sessions) for stateless
auth - simplifies horizontal scaling. IN PROGRESS: Session middleware implementation.
NEXT: Need user input on token expiry time (1hr vs 24hr trade-off)."
```
**Don't duplicate**: TodoWrite tracks execution, Beads captures meaning and context.
**For patterns on transitioning between tools mid-session, read:** [references/BOUNDARIES.md](references/BOUNDARIES.md#integration-patterns)
## Common Patterns
### Pattern 1: Knowledge Work Session
**Scenario**: User asks "Help me write a proposal for expanding the analytics platform"
**What you see**:
```bash
$ bd ready
# Returns: bd-42 "Research analytics platform expansion proposal" (in_progress)
$ bd show bd-42
Notes: "COMPLETED: Reviewed current stack (Mixpanel, Amplitude)
IN PROGRESS: Drafting cost-benefit analysis section
NEXT: Need user input on budget constraints before finalizing recommendations"
```
**What you do**:
1. Read notes to understand current state
2. Create TodoWrite for immediate work:
```
- [ ] Draft cost-benefit analysis
- [ ] Ask user about budget constraints
- [ ] Finalize recommendations
```
3. Work on tasks, mark TodoWrite items completed
4. At milestone, update bd notes:
```bash
bd update bd-42 --notes "COMPLETED: Cost-benefit analysis drafted.
KEY DECISION: User confirmed $50k budget cap - ruled out enterprise options.
IN PROGRESS: Finalizing recommendations (Posthog + custom ETL).
NEXT: Get user review of draft before closing issue."
```
**Outcome**: TodoWrite disappears at session end, but bd notes preserve context for next session.
### Pattern 2: Side Quest Handling
During main task, discover a problem:
1. Create issue: `bd create "Found: inventory system needs refactoring"`
2. Link using discovered-from: `bd dep add main-task new-issue --type discovered-from`
3. Assess: blocker or can defer?
4. If blocker: `bd update main-task --status blocked`, work on new issue
5. If deferrable: note in issue, continue main task
### Pattern 3: Multi-Session Project Resume
Starting work after time away:
1. Run `bd ready` to see available work
2. Run `bd blocked` to understand what's stuck
3. Run `bd list --status closed --limit 10` to see recent completions
4. Run `bd show issue-id` on issue to work on
5. Update status and begin work
**For complete workflow walkthroughs with checklists, read:** [references/WORKFLOWS.md](references/WORKFLOWS.md)
## Issue Creation
**Quick guidelines:**
- Ask user first for knowledge work with fuzzy boundaries
- Create directly for clear bugs, technical debt, or discovered work
- Use clear titles, sufficient context in descriptions
- Design field: HOW to build (can change during implementation)
- Acceptance criteria: WHAT success looks like (should remain stable)
### Issue Creation Checklist
Copy when creating new issues:
```
Creating Issue:
- [ ] Title: Clear, specific, action-oriented
- [ ] Description: Problem statement (WHY this matters) - immutable
- [ ] Design: HOW to build (can change during work)
- [ ] Acceptance: WHAT success looks like (stays stable)
- [ ] Priority: 0=critical, 1=high, 2=normal, 3=low
- [ ] Type: bug/feature/task/epic/chore
```
**Self-check for acceptance criteria:**
❓ "If I changed the implementation approach, would these criteria still apply?"
- → **Yes** = Good criteria (outcome-focused)
- → **No** = Move to design field (implementation-focused)
**Example:**
- ✅ Acceptance: "User tokens persist across sessions and refresh automatically"
- ❌ Wrong: "Use JWT tokens with 1-hour expiry" (that's design, not acceptance)
**For detailed guidance on when to ask vs create, issue quality, resumability patterns, and design vs acceptance criteria, read:** [references/ISSUE_CREATION.md](references/ISSUE_CREATION.md)
## Alternative Use Cases
bd is primarily for work tracking, but can also serve as queryable database for static reference data (glossaries, terminology) with adaptations.
**For guidance on using bd for reference databases and static data, read:** [references/STATIC_DATA.md](references/STATIC_DATA.md)
## Statistics and Monitoring
**Check project health:**
```bash
bd stats
bd stats --json
```
Returns: total issues, open, in_progress, closed, blocked, ready, avg lead time
**Find blocked work:**
```bash
bd blocked
bd blocked --json
```
Use stats to:
- Report progress to user
- Identify bottlenecks
- Understand project velocity
## Advanced Features
### Issue Types
```bash
bd create "Title" -t task # Standard work item (default)
bd create "Title" -t bug # Defect or problem
bd create "Title" -t feature # New functionality
bd create "Title" -t epic # Large work with subtasks
bd create "Title" -t chore # Maintenance or cleanup
```
### Priority Levels
```bash
bd create "Title" -p 0 # Highest priority (critical)
bd create "Title" -p 1 # High priority
bd create "Title" -p 2 # Normal priority (default)
bd create "Title" -p 3 # Low priority
```
### Bulk Operations
```bash
# Close multiple issues at once
bd close issue-1 issue-2 issue-3 --reason "Completed in sprint 5"
# Create multiple issues from markdown file
bd create --file issues.md
```
### Dependency Visualization
```bash
# Show full dependency tree for an issue
bd dep tree issue-123
# Check for circular dependencies
bd dep cycles
```
### Built-in Help
```bash
# Quick start guide (comprehensive built-in reference)
bd quickstart
# Command-specific help
bd create --help
bd dep --help
```
## JSON Output
All bd commands support `--json` flag for structured output:
```bash
bd ready --json
bd show issue-123 --json
bd list --status open --json
bd stats --json
```
Use JSON output when you need to parse results programmatically or extract specific fields.
## Troubleshooting
**If bd command not found:**
- Check installation: `bd version`
- Verify PATH includes bd binary location
**If issues seem lost:**
- Use `bd list` to see all issues
- Filter by status: `bd list --status closed`
- Closed issues remain in database permanently
**If bd show can't find issue by name:**
- `bd show` requires issue IDs, not issue titles
- Workaround: `bd list | grep -i "search term"` to find ID first
- Then: `bd show issue-id` with the discovered ID
- For glossaries/reference databases where names matter more than IDs, consider using markdown format alongside the database
**If dependencies seem wrong:**
- Use `bd show issue-id` to see full dependency tree
- Use `bd dep tree issue-id` for visualization
- Dependencies are directional: `bd dep add from-id to-id` means from-id blocks to-id
- See [references/DEPENDENCIES.md](references/DEPENDENCIES.md#common-mistakes)
**If database seems out of sync:**
- bd auto-syncs JSONL after each operation (5s debounce)
- bd auto-imports JSONL when newer than DB (after git pull)
- Manual operations: `bd export`, `bd import`

# Code Review Skill
Run focused code analysis using multiple review lenses. Findings are synthesized and presented for your approval before any issues are filed.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when:
- "Review this code"
- "Run code review on src/"
- "Check this file for issues"
- "Analyze the codebase"
- `/code-review`
## Arguments
The skill accepts an optional target:
- `/code-review` - Reviews recently changed files (git diff)
- `/code-review src/` - Reviews specific directory
- `/code-review src/main.py` - Reviews specific file
- `/code-review --diff HEAD~5` - Reviews changes in last 5 commits
## Available Lenses
Lenses are focused review prompts located in `~/.config/lenses/code/`:
| Lens | Focus |
|------|-------|
| `bloat.md` | File size, function length, complexity, SRP violations |
| `smells.md` | Code smells, naming, control flow, readability |
| `dead-code.md` | Unused exports, zombie code, unreachable paths |
| `redundancy.md` | Duplication, parallel systems, YAGNI violations |
| `security.md` | Injection, auth gaps, secrets, crypto misuse |
| `error-handling.md` | Swallowed errors, missing handling, failure modes |
| `coupling.md` | Tight coupling, circular deps, layer violations |
| `boundaries.md` | Layer violations, dependency direction, domain cohesion |
| `evolvability.md` | Hard-coded policies, missing seams, change amplification |
## Workflow
### Phase 1: Target Selection
1. Parse the target argument (default: git diff of uncommitted changes)
2. Identify files to review
3. Show file list to user for confirmation
### Phase 2: Lens Execution
For each lens, analyze the target files:
1. Read the lens prompt from `~/.config/lenses/code/{lens}.md`
2. Apply the lens to the target code
3. Collect findings in structured format
**Finding Format:**
```
[TAG] <severity:HIGH|MED|LOW> <file:line>
Issue: <one-line description>
Suggest: <actionable fix>
Evidence: <why this matters>
```
### Phase 3: Synthesis
After all lenses complete:
1. Deduplicate overlapping findings
2. Group related issues
3. Rank by severity and confidence
4. Generate summary report
**Optional:** If user requests consensus (`--orch` or asks for it):
```bash
orch consensus "<findings summary>" gpt gemini
```
Use this to filter false positives and prioritize.
### Phase 4: Interactive Review
Present findings to user:
1. Show executive summary (counts by severity)
2. List top issues with details
3. Ask: "Which findings should I file as issues?"
**User can respond:**
- "File all" - creates beads issues for everything
- "File HIGH only" - filters by severity
- "File 1, 3, 5" - specific findings
- "None" - just keep the report
- "Let me review first" - show full details
### Phase 5: Issue Filing (if requested)
For approved findings:
1. Create beads issues with `bd create`
2. Include lens tag, severity, file location
3. Link related issues if applicable
## Output
The skill produces:
1. **Console summary** - immediate feedback
2. **Beads issues** - if user approves filing
## Example Session
```
User: /code-review src/cli.py
Agent: I'll review src/cli.py with 9 lenses.
[Running bloat lens...]
[Running smells lens...]
[Running dead-code lens...]
[Running redundancy lens...]
[Running security lens...]
[Running error-handling lens...]
[Running coupling lens...]
[Running boundaries lens...]
[Running evolvability lens...]
## Review Summary: src/cli.py
| Severity | Count |
|----------|-------|
| HIGH | 1 |
| MED | 3 |
| LOW | 2 |
### Top Issues
1. [BLOAT] HIGH src/cli.py:145-280
Issue: Function `handle_request` is 135 lines
Suggest: Extract into smaller functions by responsibility
2. [SMELL] MED src/cli.py:89
Issue: Magic number 3600 without explanation
Suggest: Extract to named constant SECONDS_PER_HOUR
3. [DEAD] MED src/cli.py:12
Issue: Import `unused_module` has no references
Suggest: Remove unused import
Would you like me to file any of these as beads issues?
Options: all, HIGH only, specific numbers (1,2,3), or none
```
## Configuration
The skill respects `.code-review.yml` in the repo root if present:
```yaml
# Optional configuration
ignore_paths:
- vendor/
- node_modules/
- "*.generated.*"
severity_defaults:
bloat: MED
dead-code: LOW
max_file_size_kb: 500 # Skip files larger than this
```
## Guidelines
1. **Be Thorough But Focused** - Each lens checks one concern deeply
2. **Evidence Over Opinion** - Cite specific lines and patterns
3. **Actionable Suggestions** - Every finding needs a clear fix
4. **Respect User Time** - Summarize first, details on request
5. **No Spam** - Don't file issues without explicit approval
## Process Checklist
1. [ ] Parse target (files/directory/diff)
2. [ ] Confirm scope with user if large (>10 files)
3. [ ] Run each lens, collecting findings
4. [ ] Deduplicate and rank findings
5. [ ] Present summary to user
6. [ ] Ask which findings to file
7. [ ] Create beads issues for approved findings
8. [ ] Report issue IDs created
## Integration
- **Lenses**: Read from `~/.config/lenses/code/*.md`
- **Issue Tracking**: Uses `bd create` for beads issues
- **Orch**: Optional consensus filtering via `orch consensus`

description: Lint markdown documentation for AI agent consumption using deterministic rules + LLM semantic checks
---
# doc-review - Documentation Quality for AI Agents
Evaluate documentation against rubrics optimized for AI "ingestibility" - making docs work well when consumed by LLMs and AI agents.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when:
- Writing or updating AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or similar agent-facing docs
- Before committing documentation changes
- To validate docs follow AI-friendly patterns
- Reviewing existing docs for clarity and structure
## Architecture
```
Stage 1: Deterministic Rules (fast, free)
├── 12 pattern-based checks
├── Runs instantly, no API cost
└── Catches ~40% of issues
Stage 2: LLM Semantic Checks (--llm flag)
├── 7 contextual detectors
├── Evaluates meaning, not just patterns
└── Only runs when explicitly requested
```
## Invocation
```bash
# Check a single file
doc-review README.md
# Check multiple files
doc-review docs/*.md
# Apply suggested fixes
doc-review --fix README.md
# Enable LLM semantic checks
doc-review --llm AGENTS.md
# Use specific model for LLM checks
doc-review --llm --model gpt-4o README.md
# Output as SARIF for CI integration
doc-review --format sarif docs/ > results.sarif
# Output as JSON for programmatic use
doc-review --format json README.md
```
## What It Checks
### Deterministic Rules (fast, free)
| Rule | What it catches |
|------|-----------------|
| code-lang | Code blocks without language tags |
| heading-hierarchy | Skipped heading levels (H2 → H4) |
| generic-headings | Vague headings ("Overview", "Introduction") |
| hedging-lang | Uncertain language ("might", "consider") |
| filler-words | Unnecessary verbosity |
| config-precision | Vague versions ("Python 3.x") |
| backward-refs | "As mentioned above" references |
| terminology | Inconsistent term usage |
| security-patterns | Hardcoded secrets, dangerous patterns |
| json-yaml-validation | Invalid JSON/YAML in code blocks |
| broken-table | Malformed markdown tables |
| unclosed-fence | Unclosed code fences |
### LLM Detectors (--llm flag)
| Detector | What it catches |
|----------|-----------------|
| contextual-independence | Sections that don't stand alone |
| prerequisite-gap | Missing setup/context |
| ambiguity | Unclear instructions |
| semantic-drift | Heading/content mismatch |
| negative-constraint | "Don't do X" without alternatives |
| state-conflict | Contradictory instructions |
| terminology-pollution | Inconsistent naming |
## Output Formats
- **text** (default): Human-readable with line numbers
- **json**: Structured output for programmatic use
- **sarif**: SARIF 2.1.0 for CI integration (GitHub, VS Code)
## Design Philosophy
doc-review optimizes for **recall over precision**. Findings are candidates for review, not errors:
- Agents verify cheaply - checking a flag costs seconds
- False negatives compound - missed issues persist
- Suppression is explicit - `<!-- doc-review: ignore rule-id -->` documents intent
## Example Session
```
$ doc-review CLAUDE.md
CLAUDE.md:45: [code-lang] Code block missing language tag
CLAUDE.md:89: [hedging-lang] Uncertain language: "you might want to"
CLAUDE.md:112: [backward-refs] Backward reference: "as mentioned above"
3 issues found (2 HIGH, 1 MED)
$ doc-review --fix CLAUDE.md
Applied 3 fixes to CLAUDE.md
```

# Niri Window Capture
⚠️ **SECURITY NOTICE**: This skill can capture ANY window invisibly, including windows on other workspaces. All captures are logged to systemd journal. See [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for details.
Capture screenshots of windows from any workspace without switching views or causing visual changes. Uses niri's direct window rendering capability to access window buffers invisibly.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when the user requests:
- "Show me what's in the focused window"
- "Capture the Firefox window"
- "Show me window X"
- "Find the window with [content]" (capture all, analyze)
- "What's on workspace 2?" (capture windows from specific workspace)
## How It Works
niri compositor maintains window buffers for all windows regardless of workspace visibility. The `screenshot-window` action renders individual windows directly without compositing to screen.
**Key insight**: Windows from inactive workspaces CAN be captured invisibly because their buffers exist in memory even when not displayed.
## Helper Scripts
### capture-focused.sh
**Purpose**: Capture the currently focused window
**Usage**:
```bash
./scripts/capture-focused.sh
```
**Output**: Path to screenshot file in `~/Pictures/Screenshots/`
**Example**:
```bash
SCREENSHOT=$(./scripts/capture-focused.sh)
# Now analyze: "What's in this screenshot?"
```
### capture-by-title.sh
**Purpose**: Find and capture window by partial title match (case-insensitive)
**Usage**:
```bash
./scripts/capture-by-title.sh "search-term"
```
**Output**: Path to screenshot file
**Example**:
```bash
# Capture any Firefox window
SCREENSHOT=$(./scripts/capture-by-title.sh "Firefox")
# Capture terminal with specific text in title
SCREENSHOT=$(./scripts/capture-by-title.sh "error")
```
## Direct niri Commands
For custom workflows, use niri commands directly:
**List all windows**:
```bash
niri msg --json windows | jq -r '.[] | "\(.id) - \(.title) - WS:\(.workspace_id)"'
```
**Capture specific window by ID**:
```bash
niri msg action screenshot-window --id <WINDOW_ID> --write-to-disk true
# Screenshot saved to ~/Pictures/Screenshots/
```
**Get focused window**:
```bash
niri msg --json focused-window | jq -r '.id'
```
## Common Workflows
### Find window with specific content
```bash
# Get all window IDs
WINDOW_IDS=$(niri msg --json windows | jq -r '.[].id')
# Capture each window
for id in $WINDOW_IDS; do
niri msg action screenshot-window --id "$id" --write-to-disk true
sleep 0.1
SCREENSHOT=$(ls -t ~/Pictures/Screenshots/*.png | head -1)
# Analyze screenshot for content
# If found, return this one
done
```
### Capture all windows on specific workspace
```bash
# Get windows on workspace 2
WINDOW_IDS=$(niri msg --json windows | jq -r '.[] | select(.workspace_id == 2) | .id')
# Capture each
for id in $WINDOW_IDS; do
niri msg action screenshot-window --id "$id" --write-to-disk true
sleep 0.1
done
```
### Capture window by app_id
```bash
# Find Firefox window
WINDOW_ID=$(niri msg --json windows | jq -r '.[] | select(.app_id == "firefox") | .id' | head -1)
# Capture it
niri msg action screenshot-window --id "$WINDOW_ID" --write-to-disk true
```
## Guidelines
1. **No visual disruption**: All captures are invisible to the user - no workspace switching, no overview mode, no flicker
2. **Works across workspaces**: Can capture windows from any workspace regardless of which is currently active
3. **Always add small delay**: Add `sleep 0.1` after screenshot command before finding the file (filesystem needs time to write)
4. **Screenshot location**: Files go to `~/Pictures/Screenshots/Screenshot from YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS.png`
5. **Find latest screenshot**: `ls -t ~/Pictures/Screenshots/*.png | head -1`
6. **Metadata available**: Each window has: id, title, app_id, workspace_id, is_focused, is_urgent, pid
7. **Audit logging**: All captures logged to systemd journal via `logger -t niri-capture`
8. **Clipboard behavior**: Screenshots ALWAYS copied to clipboard (niri hardcoded, cannot disable)
## Security
**READ [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) BEFORE USING THIS SKILL**
Key points:
- Captures are invisible - user won't know you're capturing other workspaces
- All captures logged to systemd journal: `journalctl --user -t niri-capture`
- Screenshots always copied to clipboard (cannot disable)
- Protect sensitive apps via niri `block-out-from "screen-capture"` rules
## Requirements
- niri compositor (verified working with niri 25.08)
- jq (for JSON parsing)
- logger (from util-linux, for audit trail)
- Configured screenshot-path in niri config (default: `~/Pictures/Screenshots/`)
## Technical Details
**How it works internally**:
- niri uses smithay's `Window` type which references Wayland surface buffers
- Applications continuously render to their surface buffers even when not visible
- `screenshot-window` action calls `mapped.render()` which renders the window buffer directly
- No compositing to output required - direct buffer-to-PNG conversion
- Result saved to file or clipboard depending on `--write-to-disk` flag
**Limitations**:
- Only works with niri compositor (uses niri-specific IPC)
- Window must exist (can't capture closed windows)
- Small delay (0.1s) needed for filesystem write
## Error Handling
- No focused window: Scripts exit with error message
- Window not found: Scripts exit with descriptive error
- Invalid window ID: niri action fails silently (check if file was created)
## Examples
See the `examples/` directory for sample usage patterns and expected outputs.

description: Run multi-lens ops review on infrastructure files. Analyzes Nix, shell scripts, Docker, CI/CD for secrets, shell-safety, blast-radius, privilege, idempotency, supply-chain, observability, nix-hygiene, resilience, and orchestration. Interactive - asks before filing issues.
---
# Ops Review Skill
Run focused infrastructure analysis using multiple review lenses. Uses a linter-first hybrid approach: static tools for syntax, LLM for semantics. Findings are synthesized and presented for your approval before any issues are filed.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when:
- "Review my infrastructure"
- "Run ops review on bin/"
- "Check this script for issues"
- "Analyze my Nix configs"
- `/ops-review`
## Arguments
The skill accepts an optional target:
- `/ops-review` - Reviews recently changed ops files (git diff)
- `/ops-review bin/` - Reviews specific directory
- `/ops-review deploy.sh` - Reviews specific file
- `/ops-review --quick` - Phase 1 lenses only (fast, <30s)
## Target Artifacts
| Category | File Patterns |
|----------|---------------|
| Nix/NixOS | `*.nix`, `flake.nix`, `flake.lock` |
| Shell Scripts | `*.sh`, files with `#!/bin/bash` shebang |
| Python Automation | `*.py` in ops contexts (scripts/, setup/, deploy/) |
| Container Configs | `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yml`, `*.dockerfile` |
| CI/CD | `.github/workflows/*.yml`, `.gitea/workflows/*.yml` |
| Service Configs | `*.service`, `*.timer`, systemd units |
| Secrets | `.sops.yaml`, `secrets.yaml`, SOPS-encrypted files |
## Architecture: Linter-First Hybrid
```
Stage 1: Static Tools (fast, deterministic)
├── shellcheck for shell scripts
├── statix + deadnix for Nix
├── hadolint for Dockerfiles
└── yamllint for YAML configs
Stage 2: LLM Analysis (semantic, contextual)
├── Interprets tool output in context
├── Finds logic bugs tools miss
├── Synthesizes cross-file issues
└── Suggests actionable fixes
```
## Available Lenses
Lenses are focused review prompts located in `~/.config/lenses/ops/`:
### Phase 1: Core Safety (--quick mode)
| Lens | Focus |
|------|-------|
| `secrets.md` | Hardcoded credentials, SOPS issues, secrets in logs |
| `shell-safety.md` | set -euo pipefail, quoting, error handling (shellcheck-backed) |
| `blast-radius.md` | Destructive ops, missing dry-run, no rollback |
| `privilege.md` | Unnecessary sudo, root containers, chmod 777 |
### Phase 2: Reliability
| Lens | Focus |
|------|-------|
| `idempotency.md` | Safe re-run, existence checks, atomic operations |
| `supply-chain.md` | Unpinned versions, missing SRI hashes, action SHAs |
| `observability.md` | Silent failures, missing health checks, no logging |
### Phase 3: Architecture
| Lens | Focus |
|------|-------|
| `nix-hygiene.md` | Dead code, anti-patterns, module boundaries (statix-backed) |
| `resilience.md` | Timeouts, retries, graceful shutdown, resource limits |
| `orchestration.md` | Execution order, prerequisites, implicit coupling |
## Workflow
### Phase 1: Target Selection
1. Parse the target argument (default: git diff of uncommitted ops files)
2. Identify files by category (Nix, shell, Docker, etc.)
3. Show file list to user for confirmation
### Phase 2: Pre-Pass (Static Tools)
Run appropriate linters based on file type:
```bash
# Shell scripts
shellcheck --format=json script.sh
# Nix files
statix check --format=json file.nix
deadnix --output-format=json file.nix
# Dockerfiles
hadolint --format json Dockerfile
```
### Phase 3: Lens Execution
For each lens, analyze the target files with tool output in context:
1. Read the lens prompt from `~/.config/lenses/ops/{lens}.md`
2. Include relevant linter output as evidence
3. Apply the lens to find semantic issues tools miss
4. Collect findings in structured format
**Finding Format:**
```
[TAG] <severity:HIGH|MED|LOW> <file:line>
Issue: <what's wrong>
Suggest: <how to fix>
Evidence: <why it matters>
```
### Phase 4: Synthesis
After all lenses complete:
1. Deduplicate overlapping findings (same issue from multiple lenses)
2. Group related issues
3. Rank by severity and confidence
4. Generate summary report
### Phase 5: Interactive Review
Present findings to user:
1. Show executive summary (counts by severity)
2. List top issues with details
3. Ask: "Which findings should I file as issues?"
**User can respond:**
- "File all" - creates beads issues for everything
- "File HIGH only" - filters by severity
- "File 1, 3, 5" - specific findings
- "None" - just keep the report
- "Let me review first" - show full details
### Phase 6: Issue Filing (if requested)
For approved findings:
1. Create beads issues with `bd create`
2. Include lens tag, severity, file location
3. Link related issues if applicable
## Output
The skill produces:
1. **Console summary** - immediate feedback
2. **Beads issues** - if user approves filing
## Severity Rubric
| Severity | Criteria |
|----------|----------|
| **HIGH** | Exploitable vulnerability, data loss risk, will break on next run |
| **MED** | Reliability issue, tech debt, violation of best practice |
| **LOW** | Polish, maintainability, defense-in-depth improvement |
Context matters: same issue may be HIGH in production, LOW in homelab.
## Example Session
```
User: /ops-review bin/deploy.sh
Agent: I'll review bin/deploy.sh with ops lenses.
[Running shellcheck...]
[Running secrets lens...]
[Running shell-safety lens...]
[Running blast-radius lens...]
[Running privilege lens...]
## Review Summary: bin/deploy.sh
| Severity | Count |
|----------|-------|
| HIGH | 2 |
| MED | 3 |
| LOW | 1 |
### Top Issues
1. [SECRETS] HIGH bin/deploy.sh:45
Issue: API token passed as command-line argument (visible in process list)
Suggest: Use environment variable or file with restricted permissions
2. [BLAST-RADIUS] HIGH bin/deploy.sh:78
Issue: rm -rf with variable that could be empty
Suggest: Add guard: [ -n "$DIR" ] || exit 1
3. [SHELL-SAFETY] MED bin/deploy.sh:12
Issue: Missing 'set -euo pipefail'
Suggest: Add at top of script for fail-fast behavior
Would you like me to file any of these as beads issues?
Options: all, HIGH only, specific numbers (1,2,3), or none
```
## Quick Mode
Use `--quick` for fast pre-commit checks:
- Runs only Phase 1 lenses (secrets, shell-safety, blast-radius, privilege)
- Target: <30 seconds
- Ideal for CI gates
## Cross-File Awareness
Before review, build a reference map:
- **Shell**: `source`, `.` includes, invoked scripts
- **Nix**: imports, flake inputs
- **CI**: referenced scripts, env vars, secrets names
- **Compose**: service dependencies, volumes, env files
- **systemd**: ExecStart targets, dependencies
This enables finding issues in the seams between components.
## Guidelines
1. **Linter-First** - Always run static tools before LLM analysis
2. **Evidence Over Opinion** - Cite linter output and specific lines
3. **Actionable Suggestions** - Every finding needs a clear fix
4. **Respect User Time** - Summarize first, details on request
5. **No Spam** - Don't file issues without explicit approval
6. **Context Matters** - Homelab ≠ production severity
## Process Checklist
1. [ ] Parse target (files/directory/diff)
2. [ ] Confirm scope with user if large (>10 files)
3. [ ] Run static tools (shellcheck, statix, etc.)
4. [ ] Build reference map for cross-file awareness
5. [ ] Run each lens, collecting findings
6. [ ] Deduplicate and rank findings
7. [ ] Present summary to user
8. [ ] Ask which findings to file
9. [ ] Create beads issues for approved findings
10. [ ] Report issue IDs created
## Integration
- **Lenses**: Read from `~/.config/lenses/ops/*.md`
- **Issue Tracking**: Uses `bd create` for beads issues
- **Static Tools**: shellcheck, statix, deadnix, hadolint

---
# Orch - Multi-Model Consensus Skill
Query multiple AI models simultaneously and aggregate their perspectives. Use this when you need:
- A second opinion on your reasoning
- Multiple perspectives on a decision
- Devil's advocate analysis
- Brainstorming from diverse viewpoints
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when:
- Making architectural or design decisions ("Should we use X or Y?")
- Reviewing your own proposed solution before presenting to user
- The user asks for multiple AI perspectives
- You want to stress-test an approach with opposing viewpoints
- Complex tradeoffs where different perspectives would help
## Invocation
The `orch` CLI is available globally:
```bash
orch <command> [args...]
```
## Commands
### orch consensus
Query multiple models for their verdict on a question.
```bash
orch consensus "PROMPT" MODEL1 MODEL2 [MODEL3...]
```
**Model Aliases** (use these):
| Alias | Model | Notes |
|-------|-------|-------|
| `flash` | gemini-3-flash-preview | Fast, free |
| `gemini` | gemini-3-pro-preview | Strong reasoning, free |
| `gpt` / `gpt5` | gpt-5.2 | Strong reasoning |
| `gpt4` | gpt-4o | Legacy |
| `claude` / `sonnet` | claude-sonnet-4.5 | Balanced (via OpenRouter) |
| `haiku` | claude-haiku-4.5 | Fast, cheap |
| `opus` | claude-opus-4.5 | Strongest, expensive |
| `deepseek` | deepseek-v3.2 | Good value |
| `r1` | deepseek-r1-0528 | Reasoning model, expensive |
| `qwen` | qwen3-235b-a22b | Good value |
| `qwen-fast` | qwen3-8b | Very fast/cheap |
| `glm` | glm-4.7 | Reasoning capable |
| `sonar` | perplexity/sonar | Web search built-in |
| `sonar-pro` | perplexity/sonar-pro | Better web search |
Use `orch models` to see all available models with pricing and status.
## Model Selection
**Quick sanity check**: Use `flash qwen-fast` for fast, cheap validation. Good for "am I missing something obvious?" checks.
**Standard consensus**: Use `flash gemini deepseek` for balanced perspectives across providers. Default for most decisions.
**Deep analysis**: Include `r1` or `gpt` when stakes are high or reasoning is complex. These models think longer but cost more. Use `--allow-expensive` for r1/opus.
**Diverse viewpoints**: Mix providers (Google + DeepSeek + OpenAI + Anthropic) rather than multiple models from one provider. Different training leads to genuinely different perspectives.
**Cost-conscious**: `flash` and `qwen-fast` are 10-100x cheaper than premium models. Start cheap, escalate if needed.
**Options**:
- `--mode vote` (default) - Models give Support/Oppose/Neutral verdict
- `--mode brainstorm` - Generate ideas without judgment
- `--mode critique` - Find flaws and weaknesses
- `--mode open` - Freeform responses, no structured output
- `--temperature 0.1` - Lower = more focused (default 0.1)
- `--file PATH` - Include file as context (can use multiple times)
- `--websearch` - Enable web search (Gemini models only)
- `--serial` - Run models in sequence instead of parallel
- `--strategy` - Serial strategy: neutral (default), refine, debate, brainstorm
- `--synthesize MODEL` - Aggregate all responses into summary using MODEL
- `--allow-expensive` - Allow expensive/slow models (opus, r1)
- `--timeout SECS` - Timeout per model (default 300)
**Stances** (devil's advocate):
Append `:for`, `:against`, or `:neutral` to bias a model's perspective:
```bash
orch consensus "Should we rewrite in Rust?" gpt:for claude:against gemini:neutral
```
**Stdin piping**:
```bash
cat code.py | orch consensus "Is this implementation correct?" flash gemini
```
### orch chat
Single-model conversation for deeper exploration:
```bash
orch chat "MESSAGE" --model gemini
```
Options:
- `--model MODEL` - Model to use (default: gemini)
- `--session ID` - Continue an existing session
- `--format json` - Return structured output with session_id
- `--file PATH` - Attach file
- `--websearch` / `--no-websearch` - Toggle search (default: on)
- `--allow-expensive` - Allow expensive models
Use chat instead of consensus when:
- You need iterative refinement through follow-up questions
- The problem requires deeper exploration than a single query
- You want to build on previous responses
### orch models
List and inspect available models:
```bash
orch models # List all models with status
orch models resolve <alias> # Show details for specific alias
```
### orch sessions
Manage conversation sessions:
```bash
orch sessions list # List all sessions
orch sessions show <id> # Show session details
orch sessions clean 7d # Delete sessions older than 7 days
orch sessions export <id> # Export session as JSON
```
## Usage Patterns
### Quick Second Opinion
When you've reasoned through something and want validation:
```bash
orch consensus "I think we should use SQLite for this because [reasons]. Is this sound?" flash gemini
```
### Architecture Decision
When facing a tradeoff:
```bash
orch consensus "Microservices vs monolith for a 3-person team building an e-commerce site?" flash gemini gpt --mode vote
```
### Code Review
Include the code as context:
```bash
orch consensus "Is this error handling approach correct and complete?" flash gemini --file src/handler.py
```
### Devil's Advocate
Get opposing viewpoints deliberately:
```bash
orch consensus "Should we adopt Kubernetes?" gpt:for claude:against flash:neutral
```
### Brainstorm
Generate diverse ideas:
```bash
orch consensus "How could we improve the CI/CD pipeline?" flash gemini deepseek --mode brainstorm
```
### Critique Your Work
Find weaknesses before presenting:
```bash
orch consensus "What are the flaws in this API design?" flash gemini --file api-spec.yaml --mode critique
```
### Synthesize Responses
Get a unified summary from multiple perspectives:
```bash
orch consensus "Evaluate this architecture" flash gemini gpt --synthesize gemini
```
### Use Reasoning Models
For complex analysis requiring deep thinking:
```bash
orch consensus "Analyze the security implications" r1 gemini --allow-expensive
```
## Conversational Patterns
### Session-Based Multi-Turn
Start a conversation and continue it with follow-ups:
```bash
# Initial query - capture session ID
RESPONSE=$(orch chat "Analyze this error log" --model gemini --format json --file error.log)
SESSION=$(echo "$RESPONSE" | jq -r '.session_id')
# Follow up with context preserved
orch chat "What could cause this in a containerized environment?" --model gemini --session "$SESSION"
# Dig deeper
orch chat "How would I debug this?" --model gemini --session "$SESSION"
```
### Session Inspection
Review what happened in a conversation:
```bash
# List recent sessions
orch sessions list
# Show full conversation
orch sessions show "$SESSION"
# Show just last 2 exchanges
orch sessions show "$SESSION" --last 2 --format text
# Export for archival
orch sessions export "$SESSION" > conversation.json
```
### Cross-Model Dialogue
Get one model's analysis, then ask another to respond:
```bash
# Get Claude's take
CLAUDE=$(orch chat "Review this API design" --model claude --format json --file api.yaml)
CLAUDE_SAYS=$(echo "$CLAUDE" | jq -r '.content')
# Ask Gemini to critique Claude's review
orch chat "Claude reviewed an API and said:
$CLAUDE_SAYS
Do you agree? What did Claude miss?" --model gemini
```
### Iterative Refinement
Build up a solution through conversation:
```bash
# Start with requirements
SESSION=$(orch chat "Design a caching strategy for this service" --model gemini --format json --file service.py | jq -r '.session_id')
# Add constraints
orch chat "Add constraint: must work in multi-region deployment" --model gemini --session "$SESSION"
# Request implementation
orch chat "Show me the implementation" --model gemini --session "$SESSION"
```
### When to Use Conversations vs Consensus
| Scenario | Use | Why |
|----------|-----|-----|
| Quick decision validation | `consensus` | Parallel opinions, fast |
| Deep problem exploration | `chat` with sessions | Build context iteratively |
| Multiple perspectives needed | `consensus` | Different viewpoints simultaneously |
| Follow-up questions likely | `chat` with sessions | Preserve conversation state |
| Stress-testing an idea | `consensus` with stances | Devil's advocate pattern |
| Explaining your reasoning | `chat` | Interactive dialogue |
| Complex multi-step analysis | `chat` then `consensus` | Explore, then validate |
### Combined Pattern: Explore Then Validate
Use chat to develop an idea, then consensus to validate:
```bash
# Explore with one model
SESSION=$(orch chat "Help me design error handling for this CLI" --model gemini --format json | jq -r '.session_id')
orch chat "What about retry logic?" --model gemini --session "$SESSION"
DESIGN=$(orch chat "Summarize the design we arrived at" --model gemini --session "$SESSION" --format json | jq -r '.content')
# Validate with consensus
orch consensus "Is this error handling design sound?
$DESIGN" flash claude deepseek --mode critique
```
## Output Format
Vote mode returns structured verdicts:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ CONSENSUS: MIXED │
│ SUPPORT: 2 OPPOSE: 1 NEUTRAL: 0 │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
[flash] gemini-3-flash-preview - SUPPORT
Reasoning: ...
[gemini] gemini-3-pro-preview - SUPPORT
Reasoning: ...
[claude] claude-sonnet-4.5 - OPPOSE
Reasoning: ...
```
## Guidelines
1. **Use for genuine uncertainty** - Don't use orch for trivial decisions or to avoid thinking
2. **Provide context** - Better prompts get better consensus; use `--file` when relevant
3. **Choose models wisely** - flash/qwen-fast for quick checks, r1/opus for complex reasoning
4. **Consider stances** - Devil's advocate is powerful for stress-testing ideas
5. **Parse the reasoning** - The verdict matters less than understanding the reasoning
6. **Mind the cost** - opus and r1 require `--allow-expensive`; use cheaper models for iteration
## Requirements
- `orch` CLI installed (via home-manager or system packages)
- API keys configured: GEMINI_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, OPENROUTER_KEY

# Playwright Visit
Browser automation skill using Playwright to visit web pages and extract content. Uses headless Chromium with a fresh profile (no cookies/history from user's browser).
## When to Use
- "Take a screenshot of [url]"
- "Get the text content from [webpage]"
- "Capture [url] as a screenshot"
- "Extract the rendered HTML from [page]"
- "Save [url] as a PDF"
- When WebFetch fails on JavaScript-heavy sites
## Process
1. Identify the URL and desired output format from user request
2. Run the appropriate helper script command
3. Return the result (file path for screenshot/pdf, content for text/html)
## Helper Scripts
### visit.py
**Screenshot** - Capture page as PNG:
```bash
./scripts/visit.py screenshot "https://example.com" /tmp/screenshot.png
```
**Text** - Extract visible text content:
```bash
./scripts/visit.py text "https://example.com"
```
**HTML** - Get rendered HTML (after JavaScript):
```bash
./scripts/visit.py html "https://example.com"
```
**PDF** - Save page as PDF:
```bash
./scripts/visit.py pdf "https://example.com" /tmp/page.pdf
```
**Options:**
- `--wait <ms>` - Wait after page load (default: 1000ms)

# review-gate
Quality gate for cross-agent review enforcement. Blocks agent completion until work is reviewed and approved.
## Purpose
When agents work autonomously (unattended, CI/CD, batch jobs), they may:
- Claim "done" when work is incomplete
- Miss requirements or make incorrect assumptions
- Take shortcuts that don't serve user intent
review-gate enforces an external quality check before the agent can exit.
## Usage
### Enable review requirement
At the start of work that needs review:
```bash
review-gate enable [session_id]
```
This creates a "pending" review state. The agent will be blocked from exiting until approved.
### Approve review
After reviewing work (manually or via reviewer agent):
```bash
review-gate approve [session_id]
```
### Reject review
If issues are found:
```bash
review-gate reject [session_id] "reason" ["issue1" "issue2" ...]
```
### Check status
```bash
review-gate status [session_id]
review-gate list # all sessions
```
## Session ID
Session ID is auto-detected in this order:
1. Provided argument
2. `REVIEW_SESSION_ID` env var
3. `CLAUDE_SESSION_ID` env var
4. Generated from git branch + commit
## Hook Integration
For Claude Code, add to your project's `.claude/hooks.json`:
```json
{
"hooks": {
"Stop": [{
"hooks": [{
"type": "command",
"command": "review-gate check",
"timeout": 30
}]
}]
}
}
```
The Stop hook runs when the agent tries to exit. If review is pending or rejected, exit is blocked.
## Commands
| Command | Description | Exit Code |
|---------|-------------|-----------|
| `check [id]` | Check if exit allowed | 0=allowed, 1=blocked |
| `enable [id]` | Enable review requirement | 0 |
| `approve [id]` | Mark as approved | 0 |
| `reject [id] [reason] [issues...]` | Mark as rejected | 0 |
| `status [id]` | Show review state | 0 |
| `list` | List all sessions | 0 |
| `clean [age]` | Remove old states (default: 7d) | 0 |
## Cross-Agent Pattern
For agents without Stop hooks, use orchestrator pattern:
```bash
# Orchestrator script
review-gate enable "$SESSION_ID"
<spawn worker agent>
# Worker completes...
<spawn reviewer agent>
# Reviewer approves or rejects...
review-gate check "$SESSION_ID" || {
echo "Review not passed, looping back to worker"
# ... retry logic
}
```
## Dependencies
- `jq` - JSON parsing
- `bash` 4.0+

name: screenshot-latest
description: Find and analyze the most recent screenshot without typing paths
---
# Screenshot Latest
Automatically locates the most recent screenshot file so the user doesn't have to type `~/Pictures/Screenshots/filename.png` every time.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when the user requests:
- "Look at my last screenshot"
- "Analyze my latest screenshot"
- "What's in my recent screenshot"
- "Show me my screenshot"
- Any variation referencing "screenshot" + "latest/last/recent"
## Context Gathering
Verify the screenshot directory exists and contains files:
```bash
ls -t ~/Pictures/Screenshots/*.{png,jpg,jpeg} 2>/dev/null | head -5
```
If the directory doesn't exist or is empty, inform the user clearly.
## Process
1. **Find Latest Screenshot**
- Run the helper script: `./scripts/find-latest.sh`
- The script returns the absolute path to the most recent screenshot file
- Handle errors gracefully (missing directory, no files, permission issues)
2. **Analyze the Screenshot**
- Use the returned file path with your image analysis capability
- Read and analyze the image content
- Respond to the user's specific question about the screenshot
3. **Error Handling**
- No screenshots found: "No screenshots found in ~/Pictures/Screenshots/"
- Directory doesn't exist: "Screenshots directory not found at ~/Pictures/Screenshots/"
- Permission denied: "Cannot access screenshots directory (permission denied)"
## Helper Scripts
### find-latest.sh
**Purpose**: Finds the most recent screenshot file by modification time
**Usage**:
```bash
./scripts/find-latest.sh
```
**Output**: Absolute path to the most recent screenshot, or empty string if none found
## Guidelines
1. **Simplicity**: This skill does one thing - finds the latest screenshot file
2. **No Configuration**: Uses hardcoded ~/Pictures/Screenshots (can be enhanced later if needed)
3. **Fast Execution**: Should complete in <1 second even with many files
4. **Clear Errors**: Always explain why screenshot couldn't be found
## Requirements
- Bash 4.0+
- Standard Unix tools (ls, head)
- Screenshots directory at ~/Pictures/Screenshots
- Supported formats: PNG, JPG, JPEG
## Output Format
- Returns: Absolute file path to latest screenshot
- No terminal output except errors
- Agent uses returned path for image analysis
## Notes
- Uses file modification time to determine "latest"
- Does not support custom directories (intentionally simple)
- Does not support "Nth screenshot" or time filtering (YAGNI)
- Future enhancement: Support custom directories if users request it

description: Review spec-kit specifications and plans using multi-model AI consensus (orch) before phase transitions. Use when working with spec-kit projects and need to validate specs, evaluate architecture decisions, or gate phase transitions.
---
# Spec Review
Multi-model review of spec-kit artifacts. Uses orch to get diverse AI perspectives that catch blind spots a single model might miss.
## When to Use
- Before `/speckit.plan` - review the spec for completeness
- Before `/speckit.tasks` - evaluate architecture decisions in the plan
- Before `bd create` - review task breakdown before committing to issues
- At any phase transition - go/no-go gate check
## Quick Start
**Review a spec**:
```bash
orch consensus --mode critique --temperature 0.8 \
--file specs/{branch}/spec.md \
"$(cat ~/.claude/skills/spec-review/prompts/spec-critique.txt)" \
flash deepseek gpt
```
**Review a plan** (devil's advocate):
```bash
orch consensus --mode open --temperature 1.0 \
--file specs/{branch}/plan.md \
"$(cat ~/.claude/skills/spec-review/prompts/plan-review.txt)" \
flash:for deepseek:against gpt:neutral
```
**Review tasks** (before bd create):
```bash
orch consensus --mode critique --temperature 0.7 \
--file specs/{branch}/tasks.md \
"$(cat ~/.claude/skills/spec-review/prompts/tasks-review.txt)" \
flash deepseek gpt
```
**Gate check**:
```bash
orch consensus --mode vote --temperature 0.5 \
--file specs/{branch}/spec.md \
"$(cat ~/.claude/skills/spec-review/prompts/gate-check.txt)" \
flash deepseek gpt
```
## Detailed Processes
- [REVIEW_SPEC.md](REVIEW_SPEC.md) - Full spec review process
- [REVIEW_PLAN.md](REVIEW_PLAN.md) - Plan evaluation with stances
- [REVIEW_TASKS.md](REVIEW_TASKS.md) - Task breakdown review before bd
- [GATE_CHECK.md](GATE_CHECK.md) - Go/no-go consensus
## Model Selection
**Default (fast, cheap, diverse)**:
- `flash` - Gemini 2.5 Flash
- `deepseek` - DeepSeek v3
- `gpt` - GPT 5.2
**Thorough review**:
- `gemini` - Gemini 3 Pro
- `r1` - DeepSeek R1 (reasoning)
## Why Multi-Model?
Different models catch different issues:
- Different training data → different blind spots
- Stances (for/against/neutral) force opposing viewpoints
- Higher temperature → more divergent thinking
## Requirements
- `orch` CLI in PATH
- API keys: GEMINI_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, OPENROUTER_KEY
- Working in a spec-kit project (has `specs/` directory)

description: Generate Tufte-inspired study card JSON from conversation, build PDF, and print
---
# Tufte Press Study Card Generator
Generate structured JSON study cards from conversation context, convert to beautifully typeset PDFs with Tufte-inspired layouts, and optionally send to printer.
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when the user requests:
- "Create a study card about [topic]"
- "Generate a tufte-press card for [subject]"
- "Make a printable study guide for [concept]"
- "Build a study card and print it"
- "Convert our conversation to a study card"
## Process
### Step 1: Extract Learning Content from Conversation
Review the conversation history to identify:
- **Topic**: Main subject matter
- **Key concepts**: Core ideas discussed
- **Prerequisites**: Background knowledge mentioned
- **Examples**: Concrete illustrations provided
- **Technical details**: Specific facts, equations, or procedures
Ask clarifying questions if needed:
- What depth level? (intro/intermediate/advanced)
- How many pages? (1-3 recommended)
- Include practice exercises?
- Any specific citations to include?
- Target audience?
### Step 2: Generate JSON Following Strict Schema
**You are now the educator-typesetter.** Generate valid JSON that compiles to LaTeX/PDF without edits.
**Core Principles:**
- Output must be valid JSON that compiles to LaTeX/PDF without edits
- Margin notes must be self-contained (restate the term being defined)
- Lists must use JSON arrays, not newline-separated strings
- Practice strips have prompts only (NO answers in practice_strip)
- Self-check questions DO include answers (correct_answer and why_it_matters)
- Use Unicode symbols (λ, →, ×) in content; LaTeX in equation_latex
- Cite real sources or mark "[NEEDS CLARIFICATION]"
**Required Schema:**
```json
{
"metadata": {
"title": "Study Card: [Topic]",
"topic": "Brief description",
"audience": "Target learners",
"learner_focus": "Learning objectives",
"estimated_read_time_minutes": 15,
"prerequisites": ["prereq1", "prereq2"],
"learning_objectives": ["objective1", "objective2"],
"sources": [

"content": "E = mc^2",
"attributes": { "equation_latex": "E = mc^{2}" }
},

"type": "callout",
"content": "Important note or tip.",
"attributes": { "callout_title": "Key Insight" }
}
],
"margin_notes": [
{
"anchor": "concept",
"content": "Term — Definition that restates the term being defined",
"note_type": "definition"
}
],
"full_width_assets": []
}
],
"drills": {
"practice_strip": [
{
"prompt": "Practice question for active learning (NO answers here)"
}
],
"self_check": [
{
"question": "Self-assessment question",
"correct_answer": "Expected answer",
"why_it_matters": "Why this question is important"
}
]
},
"glossary": [
{
"term": "Technical Term",
"definition": "Clear definition",
"page_reference": [1]
}
]
}
```
**Block Types:**
- `text`: { `type`: "text", `content`: string, `attributes`? { `emphasis`?: "newthought"|"bold"|"summary" } }
- `list`: { `type`: "list", `content`: [array of strings], `attributes`? { `list_style`: "bullet"|"numbered" } }
- **CRITICAL**: `content` MUST be JSON array, NOT newline-separated string
- ✅ CORRECT: `"content": ["Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"]`
- ❌ WRONG: `"content": "Item 1\nItem 2\nItem 3"`
- `equation`: { `type`: "equation", `content`: string, `attributes`: { `equation_latex`: string } }
- `callout`: { `type`: "callout", `content`: string, `attributes`? { `callout_title`: string } }
- `quote`: { `type`: "quote", `content`: string, `attributes`? { `quote_citation`: string } }
**Margin Notes:**
- { `anchor`: string, `content`: string, `note_type`: "definition"|"syntax"|"concept"|"history"|"problem"|"operation"|"equivalence"|"notation"|"property"|"example"|"reference" }
- **CRITICAL**: Margin notes must be self-contained and restate the term
- ✅ CORRECT: "Free variable — A variable not bound by any λ abstraction"
- ❌ WRONG: "A variable not bound by any λ abstraction" (doesn't name term)
- **Format**: "**Term** — Definition/explanation"
**Content Constraints:**
- **Length**: 1-3 pages; prefer first page `layout`="two-column"
- **Margin notes**: 3-6 per page, each 15-25 words (enough to be self-contained)
- **First paragraph**: Start with `attributes.emphasis`="newthought"
- **Math**:
- Display equations: Use `attributes.equation_latex` for centered equations
- Inline math: Use `$...$` for mathematical expressions in running text
- ✅ CORRECT: `"The expression $f g h$ parses as $((f g) h)$"`
- ✅ CORRECT: `"Substituting 7 for $x$ yields 7"`
- Unicode symbols: λ, →, ←, ⇒, ⇔, α, β, γ, Ω, ω, ×, ·, ≡, ≤, ≥
- **Reading level**: Upper-undergrad; terse, factual; no fluff
- **Practice strips**: Prompts ONLY - NO answers (these are for active learning)
- **Self-check questions**: DO include answers - these verify understanding
- **Citations**: At least one reputable source with DOI/URL
- **Accuracy**: Do not invent facts; omit if unknown
**Validation Checklist:**
- All required fields present
- Each equation has `equation_latex`
- `page_number` starts at 1 and increments
- Arrays exist (even if empty)
- Margin notes are self-contained
- Lists use JSON arrays not strings
- Sources are real (or marked with "[NEEDS CLARIFICATION]")
**Guardrails:**
- If the request is under-specified, return a minimal 1-page scaffold and store 35 numbered clarification questions inside `metadata.provenance.notes`
- Otherwise produce the full card
- Validate internally before saving
**Self-Check Rubric:**
Before finalizing, adjust content to meet:
- **Accuracy**: No speculation, cite real sources
- **Clarity**: Short sentences, clear definitions
- **Annotation utility**: Margin notes actionable and self-contained
- **Balance**: Main content vs margin notes flow naturally
- **Schema validity**: All required fields present
- **Print suitability**: Short margin notes (15-25 words), avoid long lines
### Step 3: Save JSON to File
Write the generated JSON to a file in an appropriate location:
- Project context: Save to project directory (e.g., `./my-card.json`)
- General use: Save to `/tmp/study-card-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.json`
Inform the user where the file was saved.
### Step 4: Build PDF (if requested)
Use the helper script to build the PDF:
```bash
~/.claude/skills/tufte-press/scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json --build
```
This will:
1. Validate the JSON against the schema
2. Convert JSON → LaTeX using Python
3. Compile LaTeX → PDF using Tectonic
4. Output: `my-card.pdf`
**Prerequisites:**
- `TUFTE_PRESS_REPO` environment variable (default: `~/proj/tufte-press`)
- tufte-press repository must be available
- Nix development shell (automatically entered if needed)
### Step 5: Print (if requested)
Use the helper script with print options:
```bash
~/.claude/skills/tufte-press/scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json --build --print
```
**Print Options:**
- `--print`: Send to default printer
- `--printer NAME`: Specify printer
- `--copies N`: Print N copies (default: 1)
- `--duplex`: Enable duplex printing (long-edge for handouts)
**Example (duplex, 2 copies):**
```bash
~/.claude/skills/tufte-press/scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json \
--build --print --copies 2 --duplex
```
## Helper Scripts
### `generate-and-build.sh`
Complete workflow automation:
```bash
# Validate JSON only
./scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json
# Generate PDF
./scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json --build
# Generate and print
./scripts/generate-and-build.sh my-card.json --build --print --duplex
```
## Guidelines
### 1. Content Quality
- Base content on actual conversation history
- Include real citations when possible
- Mark uncertain information with "[NEEDS CLARIFICATION]"
- Keep margin notes concise but self-contained
- Use examples from the conversation
### 2. JSON Generation
- Generate valid JSON in a single response
- No markdown fences around JSON
- Validate structure before saving
- Use proper escaping for special characters
### 3. Build Process
- Always validate before building
- Check for tufte-press repo availability
- Handle build errors gracefully
- Provide clear error messages
### 4. Printing
- Confirm print settings with user before printing
- Recommend duplex for handouts
- Verify printer availability
- Show print queue status after submission
## Error Handling
**JSON validation fails:**
- Review error messages from `metadata-validate.sh`
- Common issues: missing required fields, invalid types, bad array formats
- Fix JSON and re-validate
**Build fails:**
- Check LaTeX errors in output
- Verify special character escaping
- Ensure `equation_latex` present for all equations
- Check margin note formatting
**Print fails:**
- Verify printer is online: `lpstat -p`
- Check print queue: `lpstat -o`
- Ensure user has print permissions
- Try default printer if named printer fails
## Example Workflow
**User**: "Create a study card about recursion from our conversation and print it"
**Agent** (using this skill):
1. Review conversation history
2. Extract key concepts about recursion
3. Generate JSON with proper schema
4. Save to `/tmp/study-card-recursion-20251110.json`
5. Run: `generate-and-build.sh /tmp/study-card-recursion-20251110.json --build --print --duplex`
6. Confirm: "Study card generated and sent to printer (2 pages, duplex)"
## Requirements
**Environment:**
- tufte-press repository at `~/proj/tufte-press` (or `$TUFTE_PRESS_REPO`)
- Nix with flakes enabled
- CUPS printing system (for print functionality)
**Dependencies (via tufte-press):**
- Python 3.11
- Tectonic (LaTeX compiler)
- jq (JSON validation)
**Skill provides:**
- JSON generation from conversation
- Build automation script
- Print integration
- Schema validation
## Notes
- **Conversation-aware**: Extracts content from chat history
- **Complete workflow**: JSON → PDF → Print in one skill
- **Production ready**: Uses validated pipeline from tufte-press project
- **Print-optimized**: Duplex support for handout workflow
- **Error recovery**: Clear messages and validation at each step

description: Check for and apply OpenCode version updates in Nix-based dotfiles. Use when asked to update OpenCode, check OpenCode version, or upgrade OpenCode.
---
# Update OpenCode Skill
This skill automates checking for and applying OpenCode version updates in a Nix-based dotfiles setup.
## When to Use
Use this skill when the user requests:
- Check OpenCode version or check for updates
- Update/upgrade OpenCode to latest version
- Install specific OpenCode version
- "Is there a newer version of OpenCode?"
## Process
### 1. Check Current vs Latest Version
Run the version check script:
```bash
cd ~/.claude/skills/update-opencode/scripts
./check-version.sh
```
This outputs:
```
current=X.Y.Z
latest=X.Y.Z
update_available=yes|no
```
**Report findings to user** with version numbers and update availability.
### 2. Apply Update (if user confirms)
If `update_available=yes`, **ask user for confirmation** before proceeding:
- Explain that this will modify Nix configuration and rebuild the system
- Mention rebuild may take a few minutes
- Ask: "Proceed with update to version X.Y.Z?"
If user confirms, execute the following steps:
**Step 2a: Fetch SHA256 hash**
```bash
./fetch-sha256.sh <latest-version>
```
This downloads the release and computes the SRI hash (output: `sha256-...`).
**Step 2b: Update Nix package file**
```bash
./update-nix-file.sh <latest-version> <sri-hash>
```
For safety, can use `--dry-run` first to preview changes:
```bash
./update-nix-file.sh <latest-version> <sri-hash> --dry-run
```
**Step 2c: Trigger system rebuild**
```bash
cd ~/proj/dotfiles
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#delpad
```
This will rebuild the NixOS configuration with the new OpenCode version.
**Step 2d: Verify installation**
```bash
cd ~/.claude/skills/update-opencode/scripts
./verify-update.sh <latest-version>
```
This confirms OpenCode reports the expected version.
### 3. Install Specific Version
For version pinning or downgrades:
```bash
# Fetch hash for specific version
./fetch-sha256.sh 1.0.44
# Update and rebuild as above
./update-nix-file.sh 1.0.44 <sri-hash>
cd ~/proj/dotfiles && sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#delpad
./verify-update.sh 1.0.44
```
## Requirements
**Tools:**
- `jq` - JSON parsing for GitHub API
- `curl` - HTTP requests for GitHub API
- `nix-prefetch-url` - Download and hash verification
- `sed` - File modification
- `grep` - Pattern matching
**Permissions:**
- Read access to `~/proj/dotfiles/pkgs/opencode/default.nix`
- Write access to dotfiles repository
- `sudo` for `nixos-rebuild switch`
**Network:**
- GitHub API access: `https://api.github.com/repos/sst/opencode/releases`
- GitHub releases: `https://github.com/sst/opencode/releases/download/`
## Helper Scripts
**check-version.sh**
- Reads current version from Nix file
- Queries GitHub API for latest release
- Compares versions
- Output: `key=value` pairs
**fetch-sha256.sh <version>**
- Downloads OpenCode release for specified version
- Computes SRI hash using `nix-prefetch-url`
- Converts to SRI format (sha256-...)
- Output: SRI hash string
**update-nix-file.sh <version> <sha256> [--dry-run]**
- Updates version and sha256 fields in Nix file
- Validates patterns before modifying
- Supports dry-run mode
- Verifies changes after update
**verify-update.sh <version>**
- Runs `opencode --version`
- Compares output to expected version
- Exit code 0 on success, 1 on mismatch
## Error Handling
**Network failures:** Report clear error, suggest manual GitHub check
**Missing Nix file:** Report path error, verify dotfiles location
**Invalid version:** Report format error (expected X.Y.Z)
**SHA256 fetch failure:** Do not modify files, report download error
**Rebuild failure:** Report error with logs, suggest rollback or manual intervention
**Verification failure:** Report version mismatch, suggest re-running rebuild
## Guidelines
1. **Always ask confirmation** before triggering system rebuild
2. **Report progress** at each step (fetching hash, updating file, rebuilding)
3. **Handle errors gracefully** - explain what went wrong and suggest fixes
4. **Verify atomicity** - if any step fails, do not proceed to next step
5. **Check prerequisites** - ensure all required tools are installed before starting
## Examples
**Example 1: Check for updates**
```
User: "Check if there's a new OpenCode version"
Agent: *runs check-version.sh*
Agent: "Current version: 1.0.44, Latest: 1.0.51. Update available."
```
**Example 2: Apply update**
```
User: "Update OpenCode to latest"
Agent: *runs check-version.sh*
Agent: "Update available: 1.0.44 → 1.0.51. This will rebuild your system. Proceed?"
User: "Yes"
Agent: *runs fetch-sha256.sh, update-nix-file.sh, rebuild, verify-update.sh*
Agent: "✓ Updated to OpenCode 1.0.51"
```
**Example 3: Specific version**
```
User: "Install OpenCode 1.0.44"
Agent: *fetches hash, updates file, rebuilds, verifies*
Agent: "✓ Installed OpenCode 1.0.44"
```

name: update-spec-kit
description: Update the spec-kit repository, CLI tool, and all project templates to the latest version. Use when the user asks to update spec-kit, upgrade spec-kit templates, refresh spec-kit projects, or sync spec-kit to latest.
---
# Update Spec-Kit
This skill updates the spec-kit ecosystem to the latest version across three levels:
1. **Spec-kit repository** - Pull latest commits from upstream
2. **Specify CLI tool** - Upgrade the installed CLI to latest
3. **Project templates** - Update all projects using spec-kit to latest templates
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when the user requests:
- "Update spec-kit"
- "Upgrade spec-kit to latest"
- "Refresh spec-kit templates in my projects"
- "Sync all spec-kit projects"
- "Make sure spec-kit is up to date"
## Process
### Step 1: Update Spec-Kit Repository
Navigate to the spec-kit repository and update:
```bash
cd ~/proj/spec-kit
git fetch origin
git log --oneline main..origin/main # Show what's new
git pull --ff-only origin main
```
Report the number of new commits and releases to the user.
### Step 2: Update Specify CLI Tool
Update the globally installed CLI:
```bash
uv tool install specify-cli --force --from git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git
```
Verify the installation:
```bash
specify --help
```
### Step 3: Update All Project Templates
Find all projects with spec-kit installed and update them:
```bash
~/.claude/skills/update-spec-kit/scripts/update-all-projects.sh
```
This script:
- Finds all directories with `.specify` folders
- Detects which AI agent each project uses (claude, cursor, copilot, etc.)
- Runs `specify init --here --force --ai <agent>` in each project
- Preserves all user work (specs, code, settings)
- Only updates template files (commands, scripts)
## Important Notes
**Safe Operations:**
- Templates are merged/overwritten
- User work in `.specify/specs/` is never touched
- Source code and git history are preserved
- `.vscode/settings.json` is smart-merged (not replaced)
**What Gets Updated:**
- Slash command files (`.claude/commands/*.md`, `.opencode/command/*.md`)
- Helper scripts (`.specify/scripts/`)
- Template files (`.specify/templates/`)
**What Stays:**
- All your specifications (`.specify/specs/`)
- Your source code
- Git history
- Custom VS Code settings (merged intelligently)
## Output Format
After completion, report:
1. Number of commits pulled from upstream
2. New version tags/releases available
3. List of projects updated
4. Brief summary of major changes (check CHANGELOG.md)
## Error Handling
If updates fail:
- Check internet connectivity
- Verify git repository is clean (no uncommitted changes)
- Ensure `uv` is installed and working
- Check that projects have `.specify` directories
## Examples
**User Request:**
> "Update spec-kit and all my projects"
**Skill Action:**
1. Navigate to ~/proj/spec-kit
2. Pull latest changes
3. Show: "Pulled 28 new commits (v0.0.72 → v0.0.79)"
4. Upgrade CLI tool
5. Find 7 projects with spec-kit
6. Update each project to v0.0.79
7. Report: "Updated: klmgraph, talu, ops-red, ops-jrz1, wifi-tester, delbaker"
---
**User Request:**
> "Are my spec-kit projects current?"
**Skill Action:**
1. Check spec-kit repo status
2. Compare installed CLI version
3. Compare one project's templates with latest
4. Report status and suggest update if needed
## Requirements
- Spec-kit repository at `~/proj/spec-kit`
- `uv` package manager installed
- `specify` CLI tool installed
- Projects with `.specify` directories in `~/proj`
## Helper Scripts
### update-all-projects.sh
**Purpose**: Batch update all projects using spec-kit
**Location**: `~/.claude/skills/update-spec-kit/scripts/update-all-projects.sh`
**What it does**:
1. Finds all projects with `.specify` directories
2. Detects AI agent for each project
3. Updates templates using `specify init --force`
4. Reports results
**Agent Detection**:
- Checks for `.claude/` directory → `claude`
- Checks for `.cursor/` directory → `cursor-agent`
- Checks for `.gemini/` directory → `gemini`
- Checks for `.github/copilot-instructions.md``copilot`
- Defaults to `claude` if unclear

# Web Research
Conduct deep, comprehensive web research on a topic. This skill acts as a "Lead Researcher," synthesizing information from multiple sources to provide insights, best practices, and trend analysis.
## When to Use
- "Research [topic]"
- "What are the best practices for [technology]?"
- "Gather insights on [subject]"
- "What's new in [field]?"
- "Compare [option A] and [option B]"
## Process
1. Identify the research topic from the user's request.
2. Run the helper script with the topic.
## Helper Scripts
### research.sh
**Usage**:
```bash
./scripts/research.sh "your research topic"
```
**Backends**:
You can choose the synthesis backend using the `RESEARCH_BACKEND` environment variable.
- `claude` (default): Uses Claude for both search and synthesis.
- `llm`: Uses Claude for search, but pipes results to the `llm` CLI for synthesis.
- `kagi`: Uses Kagi's FastGPT API (requires `KAGI_API_KEY` or `/run/secrets/api_keys/kagi`).
**Example**:
```bash
# Default (Claude)
./scripts/research.sh "current best practices for React state management in 2025"
# Use LLM backend
RESEARCH_BACKEND=llm ./scripts/research.sh "current best practices for React state management in 2025"
```
## Requirements

# Worklog Skill
Create comprehensive structured worklogs that document work sessions with rich context for future reference.
**Skill directory:** `~/.claude/skills/worklog/` (contains scripts/, templates/)
## When to Use
Invoke this skill when the user requests:
- "Document today's work"
- "Create a worklog"
- "Record this session"
- "Write up what we accomplished"
- "Log this work session"
## Context Gathering
Before writing the worklog, run the metrics script to gather git context:
```bash
scripts/extract-metrics.sh
```
This outputs: branch, uncommitted changes, commits today, files touched, lines added/removed, and recent commit messages.
## File Location
Save worklogs to: `docs/worklogs/YYYY-MM-DD-{descriptive-topic-kebab-case}.md`
Create the `docs/worklogs/` directory if it doesn't exist.
Use the helper script to suggest the filename:
```bash
scripts/suggest-filename.sh
```
## Structure
Read and follow the template: `templates/worklog-template.md`
The template defines all required sections. Parse it directly rather than relying on this summary.
## Helper Scripts
**Suggest Filename:**
```bash
scripts/suggest-filename.sh
```
Analyzes recent commits to suggest a descriptive filename
**Find Related Logs:**
```bash
scripts/find-related-logs.sh "keyword1 keyword2"
```
Searches previous worklogs for context continuity
## Principles
1. **Be thorough** - More information is better; these logs can be distilled later
2. **Document the journey** - Include false starts, debugging, and the path to the solution
3. **Focus on why** - Decisions, rationale, and context matter more than what
4. **Include specifics** - Code snippets, commands, error messages help reconstruct solutions
5. **Think ahead** - What would you need to know in 6 months?
6. **Pull previous context** - Use find-related-logs for continuity across sessions
7. **Aim for 3-5KB minimum** - Thorough logs typically run 5-15KB
## Process
1. Run `scripts/extract-metrics.sh` to gather git context
2. Run `scripts/suggest-filename.sh` to get filename suggestion
3. Read the complete template from `templates/worklog-template.md`
4. Search for related previous worklogs using the find-related-logs script
5. Fill in all template sections with detailed information from the session
6. Ensure the `docs/worklogs/` directory exists (create if needed)
7. Save the worklog with the suggested filename
8. Verify metadata frontmatter is complete
## Requirements
- Must be in a git repository
- Saves to `docs/worklogs/` directory (will create if needed)
- Outputs markdown format with YAML frontmatter
- Requires helper scripts in `scripts/`

# Worker Orchestration AAR (2026-01-13)
## Goal
Parallelize three bd issues using `worker spawn` and background worker agents.
## Scope
- Issues: `talu-gsga`, `talu-jid5`, `talu-w8oq`
- Base branch: `main`
- Worker model: `sonnet-4.5`
## Environment
- Repo: `/home/dan/proj/talu`
- Network: restricted sandbox (fetch requires escalation)
- Tools: `worker`, `bd`, `git`
## What Happened
1. Ran `worker spawn` using positional args; command failed due to CLI syntax.
2. Retried with `-t` and `-d` flags; `worker` attempted `git fetch` and failed due to network restriction.
3. Retried with `-f main`; fetch still attempted and failed.
4. Partial worktrees and branches were created without worker registry entries.
5. Manually removed worktrees and deleted branches.
6. Re-ran `worker spawn` with network escalation; workers created successfully.
7. `review-gate` was not found, so review integration was disabled.
8. Rendered worker prompts and launched background workers.
## What Went Well
- After network access, `worker spawn` created worktrees/branches reliably.
- Prompt rendering and background worker launch were straightforward.
## Pain Points
- `worker spawn` always attempts `git fetch`, even when `--fromBranch` is local.
- Default base branch is `origin/integration`, which is not present in this repo.
- Spawn failures left behind branches and worktrees without worker registry state.
- Missing `review-gate` produces warnings without guidance on setup.
- Network access requirements are easy to miss during first-time use.
## Impact
- Time lost to retries and cleanup before workers could start.
- Non-obvious failure modes and manual recovery steps.
## Observed Errors
- `spawn does not expect non-option arguments at "talu-gsga"`
- `fatal: not a valid object name: 'origin/integration'`
- `ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.108 port 2222: failure`
- `WARN: enableReview: failed for <id>: review-gate not found`
## Recommendations
1. Allow `worker spawn` to skip `git fetch` when the base branch is local.
2. Make the default base branch configurable or auto-detect a local main branch.
3. Roll back branch/worktree on spawn failure to avoid manual cleanup.
4. Improve error messaging to distinguish network vs branch-not-found.
5. Provide setup guidance when `review-gate` is missing.
## Questions for Worker Team
- Can `worker spawn` be configured to avoid network fetches?
- Is there a way to set a global default base branch (e.g., `main`)?
