dx
SolidDeveloper Experience (DX) review and advisory skill for CLI tools, shell scripts, developer tooling, and automation. Analyzes code against established CLI design guidelines (clig.dev, Heroku CLI Style Guide, 12 Factor CLI), composability principles, error handling best practices, and developer ergonomics. Triggers on: "dx review", "review dx", "check cli", "improve the cli", "dx audit", "review this tool", "is this usable", "check ergonomics", "dx feedback", "review the script", "improve usability", "check error handling", "review output", "dx writing", "improve help text", "review flags", "make this more intuitive", "dx best practices", "/dx".

dx-review
Evidence-based developer experience audit. Discovers the target, tests onboarding and setup flows, evaluates API/CLI ergonomics, error messages, documentation, upgrade paths, developer environment, community health, and DX measurement practices. Produces a scorecard where every score cites evidence labeled TESTED, PARTIAL, or INFERRED. Measures Time-to-Hello-World when the target supports it. Compares against a prior dx-review result when one exists (boomerang). Use when asked to "run a DX audit", "test the developer experience", "measure onboarding friction", "DX scorecard", or "evaluate developer ergonomics".
devex-review
Live developer experience audit. Uses the browse tool to actually TEST the developer experience: navigates docs, tries the getting started flow, times TTHW, screenshots error messages, evaluates CLI help text. Produces a DX scorecard with evidence. Compares against /plan-devex-review scores if they exist (the boomerang: plan said 3 minutes, reality says 8).
plan-devex-review
Interactive developer experience plan review. Explores developer personas, benchmarks against competitors, designs magical moments, and traces friction points before scoring. Three modes: DX EXPANSION (competitive advantage), DX POLISH (bulletproof every touchpoint), DX TRIAGE (critical gaps only).
