magnus-gille Skill Email TriageReliable conversation-level email triage over a date range. Identifies genuinely open threads, emails that actually need a reply, and real correspondence hiding in junk — by reconstructing each conversation across inbox + sent + drafts + junk before judging, so mobile-quoted or already-sent replies are never mis-flagged. Use for "what's still open / what do I owe a reply / anything missed" over weeks or months.

wolski Bundle Verify Review FindingsVerify code-review findings before reporting them, and turn confusing-but-correct code into structural fixes. Use this skill when reviewing code, triaging or acting on review findings (e.g. a review TODO), deciding "is this actually a bug?", confirming or refuting a suspected defect, or fixing a bug found in review. Enforces a confirm-or-refute discipline that prevents false positives (flagging a non-bug) caused by non-obvious language semantics, helpers doing hidden double duty, and guards that live elsewhere in the flow — and treats a false positive triggered by unclear code as a real communication defect to be fixed structurally. Complements multiagent-review (which orchestrates the review) by governing the rigor of each individual finding.
