artifact-tracking
Use this skill when creating, updating, or querying AI-optimized tracking artifacts (progress files, context notes, bug fixes, observation logs) in YAML+Markdown hybrid format for 95% token reduction. Invoke for: creating phase progress tracking, updating task status and blockers, querying pending work across phases, generating session handoff reports, validating artifact completeness, or migrating existing markdown files to hybrid format. Provides three embedded agents (artifact-tracker, artifact-query, artifact-validator) plus Python migration tools for efficient multi-phase project tracking.
pre-commit-check
Pre-commit validation checklist before staging and committing code. Use BEFORE every git commit to ensure code quality, tests pass, and documentation is updated. Triggers on "commit", "stage changes", "ready to commit", or when completing a feature or fix.
documentation-standards
This skill should be used when the user asks to "write documentation", "create docs", "document code", "improve documentation", "documentation best practices", "diataxis", "technical writing", "API documentation", "user guide", mentions documentation quality, documentation structure, or needs guidance on software documentation standards and frameworks.
pytest
Python testing framework for writing simple, scalable, and powerful tests
modern-javascript-patterns
Master ES6+ features including async/await, destructuring, spread operators, arrow functions, promises, modules, iterators, generators, and functional programming patterns for writing clean, efficient JavaScript code. Use when refactoring legacy code, implementing modern patterns, or optimizing JavaScript applications.
global-error-handling
Implement robust error handling with user-friendly messages, specific exception types, centralized error handling, and graceful degradation strategies across the application. Use this skill when writing error handling logic in any code file, implementing try-catch blocks, raising or throwing exceptions, or designing error response formats. Use this skill when validating input and failing fast with clear messages, implementing retry strategies for transient failures, ensuring proper resource cleanup in finally blocks, or creating centralized error handling middleware. Use this skill when working with API endpoints, service layers, data access code, or any code that could fail and needs proper error handling. Use this skill when designing error responses for users or implementing graceful fallback behaviors.

backend-migrations
Create and manage database migrations with reversible up/down methods, focused changes, and zero-downtime deployment considerations. Use this skill when creating or modifying migration files in directories like migrations/, db/migrate/, alembic/versions/, sequelize/migrations/, prisma/migrations/, or any database schema versioning folders. Use this when adding or altering database tables, columns, indexes, foreign keys, or constraints in migration scripts, implementing both up (apply changes) and down (rollback changes) methods for reversible migrations that allow safe rollbacks if deployments fail, writing migration scripts for ORMs and migration tools like Sequelize, Alembic, Django migrations, Rails migrations, TypeORM, Prisma migrations, Knex.js migrations, or any database migration framework, creating database indexes on large tables using concurrent creation options like CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY in PostgreSQL to avoid table locks that would block production traffic during deployment, separating schema
