moonlarry Bundle Paper Refine Special ZhPerform high-intensity global polishing for Chinese academic writing in either Word-style plain text or Chinese LaTeX.

nearform Bundle Understand CodebaseBuild an interlinked markdown knowledge graph of an unfamiliar codebase and explore it. Scans the project, extracts modules/functions/relationships, writes one-concept-per-note Obsidian/Quartz/Foam-compatible markdown with [[wikilinks]] and backlinks, maps architecture and domain, and offers a guided tour. Adaptively asks which capabilities you want — knowledge notes, a Quartz graph viewer, a query/explore interface, incremental re-analysis on commits — and provisions only those. Use when onboarding to a new project, reverse-engineering legacy or undocumented code, ramping a teammate, or answering 'how does this whole system fit together and where does X live?'. Trigger on 'understand this codebase', 'map this repo', 'onboard me to', or 'build a knowledge base of this project'.

serhiy-bzhezytskyy Skill State The Noise FloorBefore you put a NUMBER in front of a maintainer — "N tickets affected", "X% of cases", "this run is 13% slower" — establish what that same number would be if nothing were wrong, and report the ratio. Build the floor by comparing against something that SHOULD be identical: repeat the measurement (N≥5), or shuffle the one variable your claim depends on and keep everything else fixed. If the signal is under ~2x the floor, say so yourself before the reviewer does. Use when you are about to quote a count, a percentage, or a performance delta in an issue, PR description or mailing-list post. Trigger terms: benchmark, regression, faster, slower, N tickets, X percent, how many, count, delta, improvement, is this significant, noise, variance, baseline.
-
serhiy-bzhezytskyy Skill Port The Report UpstreamUse when the repo you found a bug in is a fork or port of another project and you are asking whether the original still has the same bug — or whether to report it there too. A port inherits its parent's bugs, so a defect found downstream is probably still live upstream, and vice versa. Check it, then report in both houses with each artifact cross-referencing its counterpart. But re-derive every anchor against the OTHER repo's own origin/main: line numbers drift, subcommands get deprecated, issue numbers autolink to the wrong project, label sets differ, and one house requires a DCO sign-off the other doesn't. Never copy a claim across a fork. Trigger terms: fork, port, upstream, downstream, vendored, same code, inherited bug, does upstream have this, does the original have this, is this fixed upstream, report it upstream too, cross-reference.
-
serhiy-bzhezytskyy Skill Answer Only What Was AskedUse when a maintainer asks for something mechanical — rebase, squash, rename, drop a file, apply a suggestion — and you are about to write a comment about having done it. The verification you run before pushing is for you; it is not the reply. GitHub already shows the force-push, the new commit and the green check, so a comment restating them adds reading cost and nothing else. Worse, a report of your own thoroughness reads as seeking credit for the request itself. The rule: do the mechanical thing, say at most that it is done, and say nothing when the timeline already says it. Comment only when you carry something the diff cannot show. Trigger terms: rebase, squash, force-push, "can you rebase", "needs a rebase", applied the suggestion, addressed the comments, done, updated, pushed, "I have verified", test summary in a comment, replying to a review comment.
-
serhiy-bzhezytskyy Skill Comments About Code Not ChangeSource comments explain what the DELIVERED code does, in the present tense — never the change history: no issue/PR numbers, no maintainer @handles, no "the previous code did X", no "confirmed by", no "aligned per". Change-narrative in source is a top AI tell, and it rots in the codebase; that context belongs in the PR body and commit message. Grep the diff's added comment lines before every push. Use before committing any code change to a repo you don't own. Trigger terms: code comment, "// previously", issue number in comment, @handle in source, over-explaining, AI smell, delivered documentation.
-
serhiy-bzhezytskyy Skill Read The Projects Origin StoryUse when you are about to PROPOSE something to a young project or subproject — a design, a new capability, a discussion thread — and want to know why it is the way it is: who built it, what it was chosen over, what its authors already called incomplete, and which design arguments are still unresolved. Read the discussion arc that CREATED the repo before proposing to it. Its founding threads name the known-incomplete edges (so you don't report them as discoveries), the objections its own committers recorded (so you don't reopen them), and who actually cares about your area — none of which git history or CONTRIBUTING can tell you. For "does the ORIGINAL of this fork still have the same bug?" use port-the-report-upstream: that is code lineage, this is decision history. Trigger terms: new subproject, young repo, why does this exist, what did they already decide, project history, founding thread, VOTE thread, was this discussed before, prior discussion, before I propose, am I repeating something, is this wanted.

flyfission Bundle Verifying Final ArtifactsVerifies the delivered artifact a consumer actually receives (a figure, chart, PDF, SVG, screenshot, compiled build, or deployed response) by regenerating it fresh and directly observing the output, not the source that produces it, and ends in one honest verdict. Use when the deliverable is a produced artifact and correctness lives in the rendered result. Do not use for a pure source or code diff with no separate produced output; use reviewing-code-quality instead.
