Mlopscommunity@Coding Agents Conference Skills

Use when starting a non-trivial coding task, feature, or bug fix that would benefit from upfront planning, research, and structured decomposition before writing code.

Use when you need to research competitors, customers, market dynamics, or stakeholders and want Claude Code to synthesize findings into actionable product insights. Requires web access or pre-gathered research input.

Use to comprehensively validate code quality and correctness in a separate context from the coding agent. Catches issues that biased validation would miss, ensures linting, tests, and assumptions are valid before merge.

Use when making user-facing UI changes and you want automated screenshot walkthroughs, or at release time to compare visual changes between releases and prioritize what needs human review. Requires Playwright.

Use when you need to research a codebase to inform implementation work — understanding call paths, data flow, schema shapes, or how existing features work — and you want facts without opinions leaking in.

Use when setting up persistent memory for Claude agents across tools and projects, or when deciding where a piece of knowledge should be stored so the agent can recall it later.

Use when starting a new feature, writing a spec, or brainstorming architecture and you want to capture richer intent than typing allows. Speak your thoughts into a transcription tool, then feed the raw transcript to Claude Code for structuring.

Use when creating new files, modifying existing files, adding new folders, or making structural changes to a codebase and you want documentation that agents (and humans) can grep/search to navigate the project.

Use when starting a complex project, task, or feature to deeply clarify requirements, identify scope boundaries, map dependencies, and structure work into phases before any coding begins.

Use when you need Claude to operate with domain expertise outside of software engineering — such as trademark law, go-to-market strategy, product management, security review, or any specialized field — and you want to write a short skill file that activates that expertise.

Use when setting up guardrails for AI coding agents to enforce quality, security, and auditability requirements that must never be bypassed, or when configuring Claude Code lifecycle hooks in settings.json.

Use when reviewing pull requests or critiquing code changes and you want high-signal, low-noise feedback by running multiple adversarial agents that challenge each other's findings. Works standalone or integrated into CI.

Use to create and maintain comprehensive documentation that helps agents navigate code effectively. Document directory structure, file purposes, architectural relationships, and design decisions so agents can work independently.

Use when merging parallel agent work or branches to resolve both syntactic merge conflicts (merge markers) and semantic conflicts (contradictory logic, API changes, schema mismatches) that traditional merge tools miss.

Use when you need to run multiple Claude Code agents simultaneously on different parts of a codebase, or when a task is large enough to benefit from decomposition into parallel sub-tasks with clear contracts.
