copy-paste-via-file

Whenever the assistant needs the user to copy-paste a command, code snippet, prompt, or any text where chat-rendered formatting could mangle line wrapping, regex literals, or string contents (e.g. DevTools console one-liners, terminal commands with quoted JSON, long URLs, multi-line prompts), write the exact text to a file and open it so the user can copy it clean. Use whenever the assistant is about to say "paste this command into..." or similar, especially for browser DevTools console pastes, complex shell commands, or anything containing regex literals, escaped quotes, or backticks.

explain-simply

Explain any topic, decision, problem or piece of work to the user in plain language, pitched at a bright high-school student, using a fixed five-part structure (context, background, the issue, examples, recommendation). Use whenever the user says "explain this simply", "in simple terms", "spell it out", "I don't understand", "what do you mean by X", "walk me through this", "give me more detail", "I'm not sure what I'm looking at", or asks what something IS. Also use PROACTIVELY, without being asked, whenever presenting the user with a decision they have to make, surfacing an unfamiliar concept, or reporting a finding whose significance is not self-evident.

prd-creation

Standard format and workflow for creating PRDs with JSON stories. Includes schema, complexity rules, agent selection, and completion checklist. Use when creating product requirements, writing user stories, or planning feature work with structured tracking.

Code & Development Listed

prd-stepper

Execute the NEXT (or a named) story in a PRD tracker file end-to-end — read the story spec from the JSON, mark in_progress, decide spawn-vs-inline based on complexity, run required gates, update the tracker with completed_date and implementation_notes. Companion to `prd-creation`. Use when the user says "continue with <story-id>", "next PRD story", "execute <story>", "step through the PRD", "what's next on the PRD", or "let's do the next one". This skill governs execution once a PRD tracker JSON exists, however it originated — whether created directly by `prd-creation` or handed off from some other planning process. Batching multiple PRD stories in one session, when the user opts in, is a legitimate variant of this same mechanism, not a different one.

project-setup

Bootstrap new projects with standardized structure, CLAUDE.md, scratchpad, docs directory, and git repo. Use when creating a new project, setting up a repo, or bootstrapping from source material.
