Design

Guide on optimizing Bluera Knowledge search results through proper intent selection, detail level strategies, result limiting, and store filtering. Teaches when to use minimal vs contextual vs full detail, and how to choose the right search intent for different query types.

Master database design, SQL optimization, system architecture, and design patterns. Learn PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and distributed system design.

Modern type-safe Typer CLI patterns with type hints, Enums, and sub-apps. Use when building CLI applications, creating Typer commands, implementing type-safe CLIs, or when user mentions Typer, CLI patterns, type hints, Enums, sub-apps, or command-line interfaces.

Ingest project documentation and code into persistent semantic memory (Qdrant + Voyage embeddings). Use when user wants to remember context across sessions, ingest docs, or search previous work. Requires Qdrant running locally and VOYAGE_API_KEY set.

Pattern for creating skills with YAML frontmatter that enables progressive disclosure and token optimization. Use when building skills, optimizing context usage, or implementing domain expertise with minimal token overhead. Demonstrates how to structure SKILL.md files with metadata-driven loading that achieves 84% token reduction compared to manual instructions. Triggers on "create skill with metadata", "token optimization", "progressive disclosure", "skill frontmatter", "efficient skill design".

This skill should be used when the user asks to "move candidate through pipeline", "schedule an interview", "manage applications", "track hiring progress", "source candidates", "advance to next stage", or mentions recruiting workflows in Ashby. Provides guidance on effective candidate pipeline management and recruiting best practices.

Guidelines and patterns for writing bash/shell scripts. Use when creating new shell scripts, bin scripts, or bash utilities. Includes script templates, header comments, error handling, and common patterns.

This skill should be used when building UI components, adding animations, or reviewing design decisions with Emil Kowalski's design philosophy. Triggers include "make it feel Linear", "emil style", "tasteful animation", or when designing interactive components that need craft and restraint.

Systematically challenge assumptions, scope, architecture, and design decisions in understanding documents or design docs. Use before design phase to surface risks, edge cases, and overlooked considerations.

Design systems, component libraries, responsive UI/UX, accessibility. Build premium interfaces that enterprise clients expect.

Review documentation changes for compliance with the Metabase writing style guide. Use when reviewing pull requests, files, or diffs containing documentation markdown files.

Homeostatic sensor validating all requirements have design coverage. Checks for requirements without components, APIs, or data models. Quality gate before Code stage. Use to ensure design completeness.

Collaborative design refinement that transforms rough ideas into fully-formed specifications through Socratic questioning. Explores alternatives, validates incrementally, and presents designs in digestible chunks for feedback. Use before writing code or implementation plans when requirements are unclear or multiple approaches exist. Do NOT use when requirements are already well-defined, you're implementing a known pattern, or making small changes - proceed directly to implementation instead.

Guide newcomers through learnings with patience and context. Use when user says "mentor me", "guide me through", "I'm new to", "help me understand", "walk me through". Auto-trigger when frustration or confusion detected.

Guide for integrating Gemini AI models with Firebase using Firebase AI Logic SDK. This skill should be used when implementing Gemini features (chat, content generation, structured JSON output), configuring security (App Check), or troubleshooting issues (rate limits, schema errors).

Responsive layout considerations using CSS and Javascript. When Claude needs to build responsive, fluid layouts.

Master testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E), security best practices, OWASP Top 10, secure coding, and system monitoring. Learn to write secure code, comprehensive tests, and build resilient systems with proper incident response and compliance.

Design multi-agent workflows with DAGs, state machines, and event-driven patterns

Use for LangGraph agent design and refactors. Prefer explicit state, small nodes, and clear transitions.

Create dbt models following FF Analytics Kimball patterns and 2×2 stat model. This skill should be used when creating staging models, core facts/dimensions, or analytical marts. Guides through model creation with proper grain, tests, External Parquet configuration, and per-model YAML documentation using dbt 1.10+ syntax.
