Use this skill proactively whenever word count is mentioned with a document reference.
rapid-manuscript-drafter
Draft research manuscripts quickly with structured sections, evidence links, and confidence ceilings.
portfolio-roadmapping-bets
Use when managing multiple initiatives across time horizons (now/next/later, H1/H2/H3), balancing risk vs return across portfolio, sizing and sequencing bets with dependencies, setting exit/scale criteria for experiments, allocating resources across innovation types (core/adjacent/transformational), or when user mentions portfolio planning, roadmap horizons, betting framework, initiative prioritization, innovation portfolio, or resource allocation across horizons.
inevitability-engine
Systematic research protocol for discovering novel AI-native software businesses in the synthetic workforce era. Maps capability trajectories, analyzes segment-problem spaces, generates business models, and calculates inevitability scores across 3-24 month time horizons. Use when exploring AI business opportunities, conducting market research, or identifying automation-native ventures.
scientific-email-polishing
Use when writing or polishing professional scientific emails, journal cover letters, or responses to reviewers. Invoke when user mentions email to collaborator, cover letter to editor, reviewer response, professional correspondence, or needs help with professional tone, clear asks, or diplomatic communication in academic/scientific contexts.
crypto-research
Comprehensive cryptocurrency market research and analysis using specialized AI agents. Analyzes market data, price trends, news sentiment, technical indicators, macro correlations, and investment opportunities.
