Categories
Indexed Skills (50)
h4tcher-capability-add
Create a new agent, skill, rule, command, hook, adapter, or pipeline module — runs duplication block, dispatches parallel sub-agents (T2/T3), delegates body authoring to the matching author skill, runs full gates, stops before commit.
h4tcher-capability-discover
Pre-flight read-only scan for a planned capability change — maps what exists, what would collide, and which pillar gap a new artifact would close.
h4tcher-capability-refactor
Rename, split, merge, or restructure an existing canonical artifact with cross-reference scrubbing and an explicit rename-map deliverable.
h4tcher-capability-remove
Decommission a hatch3r artifact (agent, skill, rule, command, hook, adapter, pipeline module) after passing the D16.3 removal-threshold gate, drafting migration notes, and scrubbing every cross-reference.
hatch3r-a11y-audit
Runs a WCAG AA accessibility audit with findings and fixes across 7 scan categories (keyboard, contrast, ARIA, reduced motion, screen reader, high contrast, automated axe). Use when auditing and remediating accessibility.
hatch3r-adhoc-orchestrate
Scaffolds the ad-hoc Tier >= 2 orchestration protocol -- Per-Turn Pipeline-State Header, implementer delegation plan, End-of-Turn Delegation Attestation. Use for a multi-phase task with no registered command to avoid inline-implementation bypass mode.

Regenerates the living board overview dashboard from current board state. Scans all open issues, computes health metrics, and updates the meta:board-overview issue.
hatch3r-board-shared
Shared context and procedures for all board commands. Provides platform-agnostic board config, label taxonomy, branch conventions, sync enforcement, and tooling directives. Platform-specific details are in commands/board/shared-{platform}.md.
hatch3r-browser-verify
Opt-in browser verification skill — spec-run-first Playwright verification (assertions execute in the runner, agent reads only failures), axe-core a11y audits, toHaveScreenshot() regression diffs, E2E test scaffolds, and snapshot-mode exploratory driving. Default ON for UI-affecting agent invocations; disable globally via hatch3r config browser=off.

hatch3r-ci-pipeline
Designs and optimizes CI/CD pipelines. Covers stage design, test parallelization, artifact management, and pipeline performance.
hatch3r-cleanup
Repo-state cleanup pass — inventories accumulated hatch3r working state (plan files, workspace dirs, review telemetry, findings ledgers, learnings, handoffs, board staleness), asks once with per-category counts and estimated reclaim, dispatches each owned surface to its owning skill or CLI path, and prunes only the unowned remainder itself.
hatch3r-cli-fd

hatch3r-cli-jq
JSON processor and query language. Use when shaping JSON streams via jq-syntax filters and select expressions; invoke `jq`. Reads stdin and emits stdout; integrates seamlessly into shell pipelines.
hatch3r-cli-ripgrep
Fast recursive grep with sane defaults and gitignore awareness. Use when regex content searches across large source trees with gitignore filtering; invoke `rg`. Outputs newline-separated hit records; bound results with `-c` or `--max-count`.
hatch3r-cli-toolbox
Category-indexed reference for 34 specialist CLI tools beyond the always-on five (ripgrep, jq, gh, fd, fzf). Use to pick the right tool for HTTP clients, ai-chat, structural-search, sed-style edits, data ops, browser automation, container ops, and more.
hatch3r-containerize

hatch3r-context-health
Monitors and maintains conversation context health during long sessions. Use when context may be degrading, after many turns, or when experiencing repeated errors.
hatch3r-cost-tracking
Tracks token usage and estimate costs for agent sessions. Use when monitoring spend, approaching budget limits, or generating cost reports.
hatch3r-customize
Creates and manages customization files for any hatch3r artifact type (agents, commands, rules, skills). Supports model overrides, description changes, scope overrides, enable/disable control, and project-specific markdown instructions.
hatch3r-dep-audit
Audits and updates npm dependencies for security, freshness, and bundle impact. Use when auditing dependencies, responding to CVEs, or upgrading packages.
hatch3r-design-system-detect
Detects existing design tokens, component library, and theming convention in a project before authoring new UI primitives — output a concise inventory for downstream implementers
hatch3r-docs-writing
