Create publication-quality scientific diagrams using Nano Banana Pro AI with smart iterative refinement. Uses Gemini 3 Pro for quality review. Only regenerates if quality is below threshold for your document type. Specialized in neural network architectures, system diagrams, flowcharts, biological pathways, and complex scientific visualizations.

Evaluate design from a UX perspective, assessing visual hierarchy, information architecture, emotional resonance, cognitive load, and overall quality with quantitative scoring, persona-based testing, automated anti-pattern detection, and actionable feedback. Use when the user asks to review, critique, evaluate, or give feedback on a design or component.

Design and implement clear, modular, resilient software and create executor-grade implementation plans with explicit scope, drift checks, verification gates, tests, STOP conditions, dependencies, and delegated-work review. Use for development, refactoring, architecture, implementation planning, safe migrations, handoffs to another engineer or agent, or verifying delegated code changes.

Design domain-specific agent teams, define specialized agents, and generate the skills they use. Use when you need to decompose a complex project into coordinated multi-agent teams, choose the right architecture pattern (pipeline, fan-out/fan-in, expert pool, producer-reviewer, supervisor, hierarchical delegation), generate .claude/agents/ and .claude/skills/ files, or validate and iterate on generated harnesses. Triggers on: harness, build a harness, design agent team, agent team architecture, multi-agent skill generation, set up harness, harness engineering, domain agent team, harness for this project.

Use when the user asks to create a CodeTour .tour file — persona-targeted, step-by-step walkthroughs that link to real files and line numbers. Trigger for: create a tour, onboarding tour, architecture tour, PR review tour, explain how X works, vibe check, RCA tour, contributor guide, or any structured code walkthrough request.

Google and Meta paid media account structure evaluation. Audits campaign/ad set architecture against conversion volume minimums, budget thresholds, and targeting overlap. Identifies over-segmentation, under-segmentation, budget fragmentation, and structural anti-patterns blocking algorithmic learning. Provides consolidation roadmaps with migration plans. Use when inheriting accounts, quarterly health checks, or before scaling budgets.

Threat-model and harden AI agents, RAG systems, assistants, and tool-using workflows against direct, indirect, stored, cross-agent, and multimodal prompt injection. Use when reviewing an agent architecture, isolating untrusted content, constraining tools and egress, protecting secrets, adding injection-focused tests, investigating a suspected injection incident, or documenting residual prompt-injection risk.

Restructure existing code without changing its behavior, through a test-gated refactoring loop: a named target, a green suite over that target before any edit, a planned sequence of small named refactorings, and the full suite re-run after every step. Use when the user wants to refactor, restructure, clean up, simplify, or improve the design of existing code, or to apply refactoring recommendations from a code-review or architectural-analysis report. This skill changes code; it does not review code (use code-review), assess architecture (use architectural-analysis), or build new behavior test-first (use tdd). Do not use it on code inside an active tdd loop; the refactor step of tdd owns that cleanup. Runs its planned sequence to completion without pausing for review; to review each named refactoring as it lands, use pairing.

Use this skill to create CodeTour .tour files — persona-targeted, step-by-step walkthroughs that link to real files and line numbers. Trigger for: "create a tour", "make a code tour", "generate a tour", "onboarding tour", "tour for this PR", "tour for this bug", "RCA tour", "architecture tour", "explain how X works", "vibe check", "PR review tour", "contributor guide", "help someone ramp up", or any request for a structured walkthrough through code. Supports 20 developer personas (new joiner, bug fixer, architect, PR reviewer, vibecoder, security reviewer, and more), all CodeTour step types (file/line, selection, pattern, uri, commands, view), and tour-level fields (ref, isPrimary, nextTour). Works with any repository in any language.

Performs deep architectural analysis of a specified module, directory, or feature area by examining structural coupling, data flow, concurrency patterns, risk, and SOLID alignment. Use when the user wants to assess, evaluate, or review the architecture, design quality, dependency structure, coupling, cohesion, or technical debt of an existing part of the codebase. Not for investigating specific bugs, runtime errors, or failures — use investigate. Not for test planning — use automated-test-planning. Not for file-level code review — use code-review. Not for researching open-ended options, prior art, or how something works — use research. Not for designing a new interface or contract — use design-an-api. Not for writing documentation or architectural decision records.

Full ASVS 5.0 compliance assessment against a codebase and/or architecture diagrams. Reads all 346 controls from the companion CSV, performs targeted code analysis per control, and produces a complete matrix marked COMPLIANT / NON_COMPLIANT / NOT_RELEVANT — with per-control reasoning and evidence (code snippets, file:line references, diagram observations). Outputs a reviewed CSV matrix and a self-contained HTML evidence report.

Audit, write, or revise Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), including the decision of whether one is warranted. Use when an architecturally significant decision needs recording, when reviewing an existing ADR collection, or when adding ADRs to a project that has none. Detects existing template (Nygard or MADR) and defaults to Nygard for new repos. Gates comparison ADRs through a decompose-and-verify interview before drafting.

Produces a human-readable, progressive-disclosure overview of unfamiliar code or a pull request's changes — why it exists (the real problem it solves or goal it serves for the business or a user), and from there what it does, how it flows, and where to start — so you can get up to speed before working on or reviewing it. Use when you want to understand, get oriented in, make sense of, explain, or get up to speed on a chunk of code, a file, a directory, a symbol, or a PR's changes. Writes the overview to a scratch file and changes no code. Does not review code quality or raise findings — use code-review for auditing changes or post-code-review-to-pr for posting them. Does not produce durable feature or system documentation — use project-documentation. Does not assess architecture or structural risk — use architectural-analysis. Does not diagnose bugs or root-cause failures — use investigate. Does not pace a person through the code one step at a time in conversation — use code-walkthrough.

Establish CSS/Tailwind baseline quality — font smoothing, line-height defaults, box-sizing, focus rings, color contrast, Tailwind anti-patterns, and CSS containment. Use when asked to "set up CSS baseline", "Tailwind best practices", "fix font rendering", "global CSS foundation", "typography defaults", "CSS anti-patterns", "improve CSS quality", "line-height reset", "normalize styles", or reviewing a new project's base styles for correctness. Do NOT use for: full design system token architecture — see design-system-gen. Do NOT use for: component-level animation — see motion-design.

Plan-driven implementation in Sage/Acorn — reads docs/plans/ directory, implements components from approved sub-plans, runs scaffold generators (lando acorn acf:block), commits incrementally, auto-invokes block-scaffolding per ACF block, runs lando flush and lando theme-build after changes; full PR workflow with sage-reviewer gate. Invoke for: "/building", "implement from the plan", "implement from the plan", "build from the plan", "execute the plan", "start building", "code this feature". Skip when: there is no approved plan yet — run /architecture-discovery then /plan-generator first.

Apply world-class developer documentation principles (Stripe, Snowflake, Databricks, TiDB Cloud) to structure, write, review, or refactor technical documentation. Use this skill whenever the user mentions documentation, docs, sidebar or navigation, information architecture, restructuring a section, writing or editing a guide, reviewing docs, where content belongs, English doc prose, headings, code comments, link text, docs home pages, section landing pages, long-form guides mixing content types, cross-referencing, or making docs readable for AI agents and LLMs. Covers VeloDB Cloud docs work (Monitoring restructure, sidebar, EN/中文 alignment, writing style, landing pages, LLM-friendly docs) and any SaaS or database documentation task. Trigger broadly: if the conversation touches doc organization, page structure, doc quality, doc sentences, landing pages, or AI-readable docs, consult this skill rather than answering from intuition.

Two-party working posture — user as director, agent as executor. Every fork, tradeoff, and taste choice is surfaced via batched AskUserQuestion with structural framing, a recommended default, and concrete previews when comparison is visual, so the human steers direction while the agent handles implementation. Eliminates the review-bottleneck (no giant diff to approve at the end — review is distributed across picks) and prevents codebase-understanding debt (the user remembers the architecture because they picked it). Use whenever the user invokes /duet, or says "work with me", "ask before", "check with me", "I want to decide", "don't assume", "human-in-the-loop", "co-author", "pair with me", "duet", or whenever a task clearly involves aesthetic, architectural, or irreversible strategic decisions — even without those exact words. Pair with the Duet output style to minimize cognitive load between picks.

Expert guidance for FedRAMP certification and compliance. Use this skill whenever a user asks about FedRAMP authorization, ATO (Authority to Operate), cloud security for federal government, NIST SP 800-53 controls, CSP compliance, or any of the core FedRAMP document types: SSP, SAP, SAR, POA&M, CIS/CRM workbooks. Also trigger for questions about FedRAMP impact levels (Low, Moderate, High, LI-SaaS), FedRAMP 20x, OSCAL, 3PAO assessments, continuous monitoring (ConMon), gap assessments, system boundary definition, FedRAMP readiness, or architecture reviews for federal cloud. When in doubt, use this skill — it covers the full FedRAMP lifecycle from readiness through continuous monitoring.

Designs the contract for an API change inside one codebase — a component's props, a function surface, URL or query parameters, an event payload, or a module boundary — through a discovery pass, an options document with one recommendation, a question round, and an adversarial validation round, with every element of the contract justified from one stated goal. Use when you want to design, shape, decide, or nail down an interface, contract, signature, or API change for a capability you can already describe, sized for roughly one pull request. Produces a design document and changes no code. Does not specify what a feature should do — use plan-a-feature. Does not plan delivery or sequencing — use plan-implementation. Does not assess the architecture of existing code — use architectural-analysis. Does not write the code — use tdd. Does not restructure existing code — use refactor. Runs its rounds without pausing for review; to review each round as it lands, use pairing.

Use when the user wants to design, redesign, shape, critique, audit, polish, clarify, distill, harden, optimize, adapt, animate, colorize, extract, or otherwise improve a frontend interface. Covers websites, landing pages, dashboards, product UI, app shells, components, forms, settings, onboarding, and empty states. Handles UX review, visual hierarchy, information architecture, cognitive load, accessibility, performance, responsive behavior, theming, anti-patterns, typography, fonts, spacing, layout, alignment, color, motion, micro-interactions, UX copy, error states, edge cases, i18n, and reusable design systems or tokens. Also use for bland designs that need to become bolder or more delightful, loud designs that should become quieter, live browser iteration on UI elements, or ambitious visual effects that should feel technically extraordinary. Not for backend-only or non-UI tasks.

A Cursor Canvas is a live React app that the user can open beside the chat. You MUST use a canvas when the agent produces a standalone analytical artifact — quantitative analyses, billing investigations, security audits, architecture reviews, data-heavy content, timelines, charts, tables, interactive explorations, repeatable tools, or any response that benefits from visual layout. Especially prefer a canvas when presenting results from MCP tools (Datadog, Databricks, Linear, Sentry, Slack, etc.) where the data is the deliverable — render it in a rich canvas rather than dumping it into a markdown table or code block. If you catch yourself about to write a markdown table, stop and use a canvas instead. You MUST also read this skill whenever you create, edit, or debug any .canvas.tsx file.
