# Using Agent Skills ## Overview Agent Skills is a collection of engineering workflow skills organized by development phase. Each skill encodes a specific process that senior engineers follow. This meta-skill helps you discover and apply the right skill for your current task. ## Skill Discovery When a task arrives, identify the development phase and apply the corresponding skill: ``` Task arrives │ ├── Vague idea/need refinement? ──→ idea-refine ├── New project/feature/change? ──→ spec-driven-development ├── Have a spec, need tasks? ──────→ planning-and-task-breakdown ├── Implementing code? ────────────→ incremental-implementation │ ├── UI work? ─────────────────→ frontend-ui-engineering │ ├── API work? ────────────────→ api-and-interface-design │ ├── Need better context? ─────→ context-engineering │ └── Need doc-verified code? ───→ source-driven-development ├── Writing/running tests? ────────→ test-driven-development │ └── Browser-based? ───────────→ browser-testing-with-devtools ├── Something broke? ──────────────→ debugging-and-error-recovery ├── Reviewing code? ───────────────→ code-review-and-quality │ ├── Security concerns? ───────→ security-and-hardening │ └── Performance concerns? ────→ performance-optimization ├── Committing/branching? ─────────→ git-workflow-and-versioning ├── CI/CD pipeline work? ──────────→ ci-cd-and-automation ├── Writing docs/ADRs? ───────────→ documentati...

agent-skill-author

Use this skill when the user wants to author, design, scope, or refine an Agent Skill (a SKILL.md file). Trigger phrases include "build a new skill", "design an agent skill", "scope a SKILL.md", "how should I structure this skill", "write a skill for X", "my skill isn't working well", or any request to improve an existing SKILL.md. Walks the user through an empirical, test-first process — probe the agent for real failures, design only for genuine knowledge gaps, iterate against runnable examples, and verify across models.
