pro-workflow

Analyzes and optimizes context window usage across sessions. Use when context feels bloated, sessions run slow, or approaching compaction limits.

Analyze session token usage and cost patterns. Identify expensive operations and recommend optimizations. Use to understand and reduce session costs.

Specialized debugging agent. Use when facing hard bugs, test failures, or runtime errors that need systematic investigation.

Multi-phase development agent. Research > Plan > Implement with validation gates. Use PROACTIVELY when building features that touch >5 files or require architecture decisions.

Analyze permission denial patterns and generate optimized alwaysAllow/alwaysDeny rules. Use when permission prompts slow down workflow.

Break down complex tasks into implementation plans before writing code. Use when task touches >5 files, requires architecture decisions, or has unclear requirements.

Code review specialist that verifies every finding against actual code before reporting. Use before committing, for PR reviews, or after major changes.

Confidence-gated exploration that assesses readiness before implementation. Scores 0-100 across five dimensions and gives GO/HOLD verdict.

Auto-configure quality gates, hooks, and settings for a new project. Detects project type and sets up appropriate tooling. Use when onboarding a new codebase.

Smart context compaction with state preservation. Saves critical files, task progress, and working state before compaction, restores after. Use before manual compact or when auto-compact triggers.

Track session costs, set budget alerts, and optimize token spend. Use to check costs mid-session or set spending limits.

Build a feature using Research > Plan > Implement phases

Diagnose pro-workflow setup and Claude Code configuration

Audit connected MCP servers for token overhead, redundancy, and security. Use when sessions feel slow or before adding new MCPs.

Analyze permission denial patterns and generate optimized alwaysAllow and alwaysDeny rules. Use when permission prompts are slowing you down or after sessions with many denials.

Prevent destructive operations using Claude Code hooks. Three modes — cautious (warn on dangerous commands), lockdown (restrict edits to one directory), and clear (remove restrictions). Uses PreToolUse matchers for Bash, Edit, and Write.

Train a skill's SKILL.md by running a SkillOpt-flavored offline loop over accumulated learn-rule corrections

Track parallel work sessions and prevent confusion across multiple Claude Code instances. Every major step ends with a status line. Every question re-states project, branch, and task.

Coordinate multiple Claude Code sessions as a team — lead + teammates with shared task lists, mailbox messaging, and file-lock claiming. Patterns for team sizing, task decomposition, and when to use teams vs sub-agents vs worktrees.

Decompose large-scale changes into independent units and spawn parallel agents in isolated worktrees. Use for migrations, refactors, codemods, and any change touching 10+ files with the same pattern.

Capture a user-reported defect as a durable GitHub issue written in the project's own domain language. Explores the codebase in parallel for context but never leaks file paths or line numbers into the issue. Use when the user reports a bug conversationally, runs a QA pass, or says "file an issue", "log this as a bug", "capture this".

Master the four operations of context engineering — Write, Select, Compress, Isolate. Manage token budgets, compaction strategies, and context partitioning to keep AI sessions sharp and efficient.

Optimize token usage and context management. Use when sessions feel slow, context is degraded, or you're running out of budget.

Remove AI-generated code slop, unnecessary comments, and over-engineering from the current branch diff. Cleans up boilerplate, simplifies abstractions, and strips defensive code. Use when cleaning up code, simplifying, removing boilerplate, or before committing.
