catcorner22 Bundle Appbuilder WorkfrontUse when orienting, onboarding, or planning before a concrete task — the entry point for building a customized Workfront UI on Adobe App Builder. Reach for this whenever the user is: brand new to Workfront UI extensions and asking where to start or what the process looks like; describing a Workfront customization idea and asking how to build it; asking for the end-to-end roadmap (set up → scaffold → build → test → deploy → publish); or asking how the React/Spectrum SPA, the serverless Runtime actions, and the Workfront extension points fit together. This umbrella routes each stage to its skill: workfront-ui-extension (front-end SPA + extension points), workfront-actions (Runtime actions + Workfront Public API v21), workfront-local-testing (previewing a build inside Workfront); machine setup and aio app init live in appbuilder-project-init. Skip it and go straight to the matching sub-skill when the user already has one specific task.
-
catcorner22 Skill Counterpoint PerspectivesGenerate 2–3 independent analytical voices with own logic, then harmonize into interwoven output — not pros/cons list. Use for multi-stakeholder or multi-framework analysis. Scope boundary: debate scoring → `debate-adjudication-voting`.
-
catcorner22 Skill Hf Cloud AWS Context DiscoveryDiscover the user's local AWS context (active profile, region, account ID, caller identity) at the start of any AWS task. Use this skill before any other AWS work — deploying to SageMaker, creating resources, calling AWS APIs, or anything that touches an AWS account. Use it especially when the user has not specified a region or profile explicitly, when they say things like "use my AWS account", "deploy to AWS", "use my profile", or when about to make any AWS CLI or SDK call. Never guess the region or account ID — always use this skill to read it from the local configuration first.

-
tractorjuice Skill Arckit Ca Gc Digital Standards 2[COMMUNITY] Generate a Government of Canada Digital Standards conformance scorecard against the 10 standards — evidence per standard, gap remediation plan, and maturity roadmap.
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Ideation 2Use when generating a wide range of solution concepts before converging on a direction, running structured idea-generation sessions, breaking out of solution fixation, or moving from divergent to convergent selection with explicit criteria. Do NOT use for collaborative engineering domain discovery (event-storming), solo deep technical design, or making final go/no-go investment decisions — those require different methods.
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Design Thinking 2Use when orchestrating a full human-centered design process across discovery, definition, ideation, prototyping, and testing — when uncertain which stage of the arc a team is in, when deciding whether to loop back, or when routing to the right stage-specific sibling skill. Do NOT use for single-stage execution (go directly to problem-framing, user-research, research-synthesis, journey-mapping, ideation, prototyping, or usability-testing) or for engineering domain discovery (use event-storming).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Content Monitor 2Use when building or operating multi-source intelligence pipelines across video, GitHub, Reddit, curated lists, search, and RSS feeds. Covers source adapters, discovery/transcription/summarization/evaluation phases, deduplication, schedules, model-stage choice, and actionable brief generation. Do NOT use for SEO keyword research (use `keywords`) or competitive product analysis (use `user-research`).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Kano Model 2Use when classifying product features, service attributes, customer needs, or roadmap candidates with the Kano model: must-be/basic quality, performance/one-dimensional quality, attractive/delighter quality, indifferent quality, reverse quality, and questionable responses. Covers paired functional/dysfunctional survey design, segment-specific classification, feature-priority implications, category migration over time, and the boundary between Kano analysis and general backlog scoring. Do NOT use for generic RICE/ICE/MoSCoW ranking without customer-response evidence (use prioritization), open-ended research synthesis (use user-research or research-synthesis), or product-market positioning (use positioning).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle API Design 2Use when designing or reviewing HTTP API surfaces: consumer tasks, audience class, protocol/paradigm fit, resources/actions, route taxonomy, request and response schemas, status codes in context, pagination, filtering, sorting, field selection, idempotency, auth and tenant boundaries, error envelopes, rate-limit signals, versioning, deprecation, discovery, and contract artifacts. Do NOT use for pure HTTP protocol semantics (use `http-semantics`), framework-specific route handler mechanics (use `route-handler-design`), non-HTTP system contracts (use `system-interface-contracts`), async event contracts (use `event-contract-design`), database design (use `entity-relationship-modeling`), inbound provider webhook mechanics (use `webhook-integration`), or post-failure diagnosis (use `debugging`).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Lean Startup 2Use when applying Lean Startup methodology to validate a new venture, product, feature, program, or business model under high uncertainty: build-measure-learn loops, minimum viable products, validated learning, riskiest assumptions, actionable metrics, innovation accounting, learning milestones, and pivot/persevere decisions. Covers experiment design and learning discipline before scaling. Do NOT use for generative customer interviews alone (use user-research), synthesizing existing research (use research-synthesis), feature satisfaction classification (use kano-model), OKR goal-setting, product positioning, or quantified option valuation.
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Expected Value 2Use when choosing among actions under quantified uncertainty by enumerating outcomes, assigning probabilities, valuing each outcome in one shared unit, computing probability-weighted value, testing sensitivity, and checking downside constraints before recommending. Covers expected value, expected utility, expected monetary value, payoff tables, break-even probability, value of information, and risk-of-ruin constraints. Do NOT use for updating probabilities from evidence (use bayesian-reasoning), broad mixed-criteria backlog ranking (use prioritization), or tracing consequences before outcomes are modeled (use second-order-thinking).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Playing To Win 2Use when turning a vague business strategy, product strategy, market-entry decision, or initiative plan into an integrated Playing to Win strategy cascade: winning aspiration, where to play, how to win, must-have capabilities, and management systems. Covers Lafley/Martin choice-making, fit across the five choices, trade-off pressure, reverse tests, capability-system alignment, and the difference between strategy and planning. Do NOT use for competitive-industry structure analysis (use a five-forces skill when available), generic backlog scoring (use prioritization), or broad process-gate design (use methodology).
-
jacob-balslev Bundle Three Horizons 2Use when balancing an innovation, growth, transformation, or venture portfolio across McKinsey's Three Horizons: Horizon 1 current core businesses, Horizon 2 emerging growth businesses, and Horizon 3 future options. Covers concurrent portfolio balance, resource allocation (the 70-20-10 benchmark and its caveats), evidence maturity, governance and metrics by horizon, metered funding, ring-fenced budgets, transitions from option to emerging business to core, the collapsed-time critique that disruption can now arrive on core timelines, and the risk that short-term core demands or incentives starve future growth. Do NOT use for BCG growth-share portfolio allocation (use bcg-matrix), Ansoff product-market growth path selection (use ansoff-matrix), Blue Ocean value-curve redesign (use blue-ocean-strategy), scenario construction and stress-testing across alternative futures (use scenario-planning), OKR goal-setting (use okrs), or quantified probability-weighted valuation (use expected-value).
