Use this skill when asked to research something, investigate a topic, do a deep dive, compile a report, or gather comprehensive information on any subject.

zcz10516 Bundle Trace Demo LearningBuild runnable, traceable teaching demos for programming and computer science topics only when the user explicitly invokes the skill by name, such as "use trace_demo_learning", "use trace-demo-learning", "use 追溯代码样例学习法", or "$trace-demo-learning". Use it to explain technical concepts, algorithms, models, systems, libraries, implementation details, or other software-engineering questions by creating a minimal executable script, printing detailed step-by-step logs that show how inputs transform into outputs, writing a markdown teaching guide that explains the log and the visuals, and iterating until the user fully understands. Do not trigger for ordinary technical questions unless the skill name is explicitly requested.

developer0hye Skill Md2pdfConvert Markdown files to professional PDFs using marknest — a Rust-powered CLI that handles single files, entire folders, ZIP archives, and even GitHub repository URLs. Use this skill whenever the user wants to turn .md files into PDFs, generate printable documentation, export markdown as PDF, batch-convert a docs folder, or create styled PDF reports from markdown. Also trigger when the user mentions "markdown to PDF", "md to pdf", "export as PDF", "print markdown", "PDF from README", "convert docs to PDF", or asks to make markdown files look professional/printable. This skill covers theming, table of contents generation, Mermaid diagram rendering, LaTeX math support, and custom styling — so use it even if the user asks for "pretty PDFs", "styled documentation", or "PDF with diagrams and math".
