vichitra-studio Skill Specdev ReviewRun the structured review-fix loop on a spec scope. Dispatches specdev-scope (Haiku) for fan-out planning, then runs specdev-reviewer instances in parallel per round, merges findings, dispatches specdev-impl (fix mode) for repairs, and returns CONVERGED or HALT with findings path. NOT when spec/NN_*.json is absent (→ /specdev-step to author it first). NOT for ms_*_plan.json trinity reviews (→ /specdev-trinity). NOT for PR or audit scopes (→ /devspec_pr_audit). The artifact under review must already exist. Sibling skills: specdev-step (author missing step first), specdev-trinity (ms_* plan reviews), devspec_pr_audit (PR/branch audit scopes). Trigger on: "review step NN", "run review", "/specdev-review", review + any step reference, "check step", "audit scope", or after any spec authoring or editing task (artifact must exist).

wcly Bundle Skill Security Checker检查 Skill/代码仓库是否存在安全风险。When the user wants to check if a skill, GitHub repository, npm package, or local code is safe to download or use. This includes detecting malicious code, malware, key stealing, environment variable modification, suspicious network behavior, and evaluating repository reputation (stars, forks, contributors, age). Use this skill whenever the user mentions checking skills for security risks, scanning repositories for malware, verifying code safety, checking npm packages for threats, or asking if a download is safe.

wretcher207 Bundle Hey DudeUse when the user begins or resumes a work session and wants a focused catch-up before continuing: hey dude, pick this back up, where were we, resume, or what is the next step. Establishes current project truth from the selected workspace, handoff, and working tree, then proceeds with the requested work. Do not use for a general project audit or to scan unrelated directories.

bowtiedswan Skill Strand Review GatePublication gate for Strand content. Audit every drafted article on its branch before it merges or publishes, revise files in place when they fall short, and write a per-article audit log the publish step can require. Use before any publish or merge of drafted content, on scheduled review wakes, and whenever multiple articles ship as one batch.

chainreactors Bundle Iom OpsecIoM Operational Security (OPSEC) advisor. Provides OPSEC methodology guidance, helps users understand operational risks, build secure operating habits, and accumulate experience through a case library. Does not execute commands directly; serves as decision support. Concrete technical specifications and OPSEC scoring are maintained in the iom-pentest skill. Trigger conditions: use when the user asks "is this safe?", "will this be detected?", "how should I think about OPSEC?", "risk assessment", "operational security advice", or "help me analyze the detection surface".

chsistrying Skill Oss Readiness AuditSystematic pre-publish audit for a project about to go public on GitHub (open source release or portfolio piece). Use when a repo is about to get its first commit/push, or when the user says things like "ready to publish", "open source my project", "push to GitHub first time", "portfolio repo review", "is this repo ready for GitHub", "can I make this public", or asks to check for secrets/leftover artifacts before sharing a repo. Walks a checklist covering git repo scope, .gitignore coverage, secrets/PII sweep, LICENSE, README completeness, misleading naming, internal process docs, doc consistency, and CI — gathering evidence with shell commands and producing a blocker/recommended/nice-to-have report. Language-agnostic across Swift, Node, Python, Rust, Go, etc. Trigger with "/oss-readiness-audit".

cmj-hub Skill PspPain Signal Profile (PSP) builder for B2B operators. Translates public, recent, verifiable signals (job posts, funding rounds, leadership changes, product launches, pricing changes, hiring patterns) into the felt operational pain that drives buying decisions — and then into the EVP that speaks to it. Anchors every output on a signal that the prospect actually did, not a demographic guess about who they are. Foundation of the JMC framework; loaded by cold-email, outbound-audit, and EVP skills. Triggers on: "build a PSP", "pain signal profile", "what's our ICP pain", "what signals should we hunt", "signal to pain mapping", "buyer pain", "PSP worksheet", "find the signal".

codealive-ai Bundle Agents ConsiliumQuery external AI agents (Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Claude Code headless) in parallel for independent second opinions, code review, bug investigation, and consensus on high-stakes decisions. Agents and models are configurable in config.json. Use for architecture choices, security review, or ambiguous problems where independent perspectives matter. Not for simple questions answerable from docs or the codebase — use web search or repo exploration instead.
-
cogpros Bundle Closing TimeThe operator-issued end-of-session protocol for a CLI session: mechanical fact-sheet pre-fill, background repo sweep, capture, clarify, assay, a type-aware Ghost Hours walkthrough, record, seal. Use when the operator asks to close out the session. The Ghost Hours measurement (../../SKILL.md) runs as the Phase 3 sub-step inside this skill. NOT FOR: mid-session checkpointing, mid-session re-orientation, pre-close audit only, one-off log entries (use the ghost-hours skill directly).

Triggers: "set up the project", "write an ADR", "write a TDR", "record tech decision", "verify compliance", "draw [diagram type]", "audit this", "audit <path>", "sanitize PII".
-
thegeekybeng Skill Vuln ScannerUse when the user wants to scan a live website, web application, or network service for security vulnerabilities from the outside (DAST). Triggers: "scan this site", "find vulnerabilities on", "pentest", "security scan URL", "check if this site is vulnerable". Not for source code analysis — use run-security-scanner for SAST instead.

thonymg Bundle Assertcheck AuditAnalyze existing TypeScript code (function, file, or class) to find unguarded boundaries and propose assertcheck assertions. Trigger when the user says "review this code", "audit this", "find where I should add assertions", "why does this fail silently", "debug this", or shares code asking "is this well-protected?".
-
thonymg Skill Assertcheck SelectorInternal utility skill — maps an invariant or code pattern to the correct assertcheck function. Loaded on demand by assertcheck-feature, assertcheck-refactor, assertcheck-audit, and assertcheck-spec. Also triggers directly when the user asks "which assert function should I use for…" or "what is the assertcheck equivalent of…".

-
rayfernando1337 Bundle Waves CodexWAVES - Workers, Aggregate, Verify, Extend - wave-based orchestration for Codex. Decompose a big goal into independent slices, verify coverage, spawn Codex subagents in parallel as a bounded wave, collect evidence-backed handoffs, verify important claims, synthesize one deliverable, and extend into another wave only when warranted. Bounded by design to avoid runaway token loops; invoke deliberately. Formerly parallel-orchestrate-codex; also fan out, parallelize, spin up multiple agents, orchestrate workers, multi-stream research, audit a repo, split disjoint implementation work.
-
swiftadviser Bundle High Quality Content WriterWrite, rewrite, audit, and iteratively improve prose until it passes isolated content-quality gates. Use when the user asks for high-quality content, cleanup, anti-slop rewriting, article/copy/landing-page improvement, link/text grading, AI-writing trope removal, slop-check validation, or a loop that keeps revising until the final text is clean, specific, fact-dense, and publishable.

abullaisi Skill Upwork Profile OptimizerAudit and improve an Upwork freelancer profile. Use when the user pastes their profile (title, overview, portfolio list, skills, stats) and wants it scored and fixed, or asks why they aren't getting invitations or search visibility. Triggers include "review my Upwork profile", "why am I not getting invites", "improve my profile", "profile title help", "optimize my overview". Returns a prioritized fix list, biggest lever first. Companion to upwork-proposal-writer (the proposal earns the profile visit; the profile closes it).

Covers the full audit loop: analyze coverage -> tag existing tests -> identify spec gaps -> propose spec updates.
