Ten skills, agent-run · four decisions yours

From Intent to Shipped

How a repository manager composes the skills for one objective. Agents run every step; you enter only where judgement, taste, clarity, or production authority is needed. None of the ten is a required stage.

The skills a manager composes

From Intent to Shipped

Ten independent skills, shown in the order a new product tends to use them. Agents run all of them. You enter where judgement, taste, or clarity is needed, and nowhere else.

Direction
AGENTS

Capture the Direction

/product

Talk through what you want — users, scope, success criteria. Claudia interviews and writes a versioned product.md you can refine over time.

Your call. Judgement: what to build, and for whom

AGENTS

Settle the Architecture

/solution

Research the stack, weigh trade-offs, and draft solution.md: system boundaries, data, APIs, auth, infrastructure. You pick the trade-offs that matter.

AGENTS

Design the Experience

/design

One adaptive skill routes each need to the right specialist method — research, journeys, web, native mobile, systems, motion, prototypes, or critique — and keeps one living design contract current.

Your call. Taste: the experience you want

AGENTS

Specify When It Helps

/spec

Optional acceptance help: contracts, edge cases, and acceptance criteria when ambiguity would make implementation or review unreliable. Skip it when the objective is already buildable.

AGENTS

Groom What Is Ready

/backlog

Capture, connect, deduplicate, and revalidate deferred work on GitHub. You settle outcome, scope, and acceptance, then apply the ready label that admits unattended work.

Your call. Clarity: the ready label

Delivery
AGENTS

Build the Objective

/build

A repository manager carries one coherent objective end to end: reads current evidence, makes the smallest change that satisfies it, opens the draft pull request early, verifies proportionately, and finishes delivery.

AGENTS

Review by Judgment

/review

Another engineering opinion when you ask for it or when the manager judges it would improve confidence: correctness, regressions, security, compatibility, maintainability. Findings resolved on the head.

AGENTS

Test the Risk

/test

Regression, unit, integration, end-to-end, or contract tests for a specific risk or behavior. No test layer is added because the skill was invoked.

AGENTS

Deploy Within Authority

/deploy

Plan, execute, verify, or recover a deployment on the repository’s configured platform. Production authority is confirmed first; database changes keep their own approval.

Your call. Authority: production, unless delegated

AGENTS

Write What Shipped

/write

Documentation, changelogs, guides, and onboarding drawn from what actually shipped, in the project’s voice, without inventing product behavior.

Ten skills, agent-run. The four decisions that matter stay yours.
