.Codex

Use when you need to plan technical solutions that are scalable, secure, and maintainable.

Systematic debugging framework ensuring root cause investigation before fixes. Includes four-phase debugging process, backward call stack tracing, multi-layer validation, and verification protocols. Use when encountering bugs, test failures, unexpected behavior, performance issues, or before claiming work complete. Prevents random fixes, masks over symptoms, and false completion claims.

UI/UX design intelligence with searchable database

Apply systematic problem-solving techniques for complexity spirals (simplification cascades), innovation blocks (collision-zone thinking), recurring patterns (meta-pattern recognition), assumption constraints (inversion exercise), scale uncertainty (scale game), and dispatch when stuck. Techniques derived from Microsoft Amplifier project patterns adapted for immediate application.

Use AFTER any code changes (feature implementation, bug fix, refactor) to enforce mandatory dual-pass review. First pass reviews unstaged changes for correctness and convention compliance. Second pass ONLY executes if first pass made any corrections. Ensures work follows project conventions, development rules, and best practices before task completion.

Production prompt-engineering pipeline for GPT-Image-2 / OpenAI image generation. Pairs a 'media-designer' agent with a hosted searchable corpus of 3,238 community-vetted prompts, decomposed across 10 controlled vocabularies (subjects, styles, lighting, cameras, moods, palettes, compositions, mediums, techniques, usecases). Each record carries: full prompt body, twitter/X attribution link, downloaded reference image. Workflow: agent diagnoses the user brief → searches the corpus → picks a mood-aligned base → refactors the chosen prompt into a parameterised {argument} template → resolves arguments from user intent → returns the final paste-ready prompt with attribution + reference image. Use when the user wants a polished image-generation prompt for ads, posters, product shots, portraits, character sheets, UI mockups, infographics, exploded-view diagrams, or any other GPT-Image-2 / OpenAI image task.
