▌
Til · aka-kika
Teach ONE concept from THIS session — a term that flew past, the idea behind a fixed mistake, or a tool that did silent work — and save it to the Obsidian vault's TIL/ folder in the same turn. Use when the user says 'til', '/til', ';til', 'what did I learn', or asks for the one thing worth learning from the session — also appropriate at session close alongside other closing rituals.

▌
Spread · aka-kika
Before improving anything, show the spread of what can concretely be done on this specific input — a short menu of 3-5 interventions from lightest to heaviest touch, then wait for the user to pick. Domain-agnostic; works on any material the user hands over. Trigger when the user says "spread", "show me my options", "what can you do with this", or asks to improve or fix something without specifying how. Do NOT trigger when the user has already named a specific fix — then just do the fix.

▌
Social Post Kit · aka-kika
Use when the user wants a ready-to-paste social post kit for an app, tool, or project launch or update — "make social posts", "launch posts", "post kit", "prep socials", "promote this". Produces one Markdown file with finished posts for X, Reddit, Instagram, LinkedIn, Threads, and short-form video, plus a pre-post checklist. Pull real facts from the project (repo, release, what it does, OS, links).

▌
Color Principles · aka-kika
Use when reviewing or designing a color palette for a UI, website, or app — seven principles for premium, calm, accessible color (palette size, muted tones, contrast, accent restraint, near-black/white, consistency, whitespace).

▌
Docs Update · aka-kika
Use when the user needs to update, improve, audit, or maintain documentation in a project. Covers READMEs, changelogs, API docs, inline comments, missing docs, and overall documentation quality. Works well before releases or when documentation has fallen behind the code.

▌
Local AI Ollama · aka-kika
Use when integrating an app with local AI models through Ollama — connection checks, model listing/selection, local-only mode, cloud-fallback consent, visible run states, and recovering from Ollama errors.

▌
Kika Design System · aka-kika bundle
Use when building or modifying SwiftUI views, settings windows, menu-bar UIs, or any surface for the KIKA app — or any calm, premium app you want to feel the same way. Encodes the KIKA Design System v2 (June 2026) — a calm, premium, modern dark UI with first-class light mode, inspired by Cursor, Linear, and high-quality dev tools — that you can adopt or adapt for your own app. Apply it to keep color, typography, spacing, and component styling consistent.

▌
Apple Hig Settings · aka-kika
Use when designing, reviewing, or implementing Settings/Preferences for Apple-platform apps — what belongs in Settings vs Inspector/Toolbar, grouped forms, native controls, secure storage, launch at login, and destructive actions.

Blog Post Publishing · aka-kika bundle
Use when the user asks to create, add, convert, publish, or deploy a blog post from a draft, notes, Markdown, outline, or topic. Turns a draft into a complete, SEO/GEO-optimized post wired into the site (template, blog index, sitemap, routing) with QA and deploy. Framework-agnostic — discover the project's own conventions first.

▌
Agent State Machine · aka-kika
Use when designing or implementing states for AI agent tasks, background jobs, local model runs, queues, and notifications — one shared set of states, only legal transitions, and a recovery path out of every failure.

▌
Apple App Intents · aka-kika

installs
▌
Apple Hig Empty States · aka-kika
Use when designing or implementing empty, first-run, no-result, offline, error, or waiting states in Apple-platform apps — every empty state explains what is missing, why it matters, and what to do next.

installs
▌
Butterfly Effect · aka-kika
At the end of a long working session, produce a counterfactual trace note — a backward walk through the session that identifies the small number of load-bearing moments (observations, failures, accidents, decisions) without which the final outcome would not exist. Use this whenever the user asks to "close the session", "run the butterfly", "trace back", "what actually mattered here", asks for a session retrospective, or asks how the session arrived at its result. Also use it when a session ends with a significant outcome (a fix, a design decision, a shipped artifact) and the user wants a note capturing why it happened, not just what happened. Do NOT use for simple summaries of short sessions — this skill is for causal tracing, and it only earns its cost when the session was long enough to contain real forks.

▌
Macos Launch At Login · aka-kika
Use when adding, reviewing, or debugging Launch at Login in a macOS app — SMAppService registration, the requiresApproval state, a Settings toggle that reflects reality, and migration off deprecated login-item APIs.

0
installs
▌
Macos Menubar Swiftui · aka-kika
Use when building, refactoring, or debugging a macOS menu bar app with SwiftUI, or when a MenuBarExtra misbehaves — the icon renders wrong or vanishes, the Settings window opens behind other apps, the popover cannot be closed, controls inside a .menu style do not render, the Dock icon comes back, or the app quits when the item is dragged off the menu bar. Triggers include menu bar app, status bar app, tray app, MenuBarExtra, NSStatusItem, LSUIElement, hide Dock icon.

installs
▌
Emergency Switch App · aka-kika
Use when designing a user-initiated macOS emergency switch that helps the user save context before stopping, switching tasks, or leaving the computer — capture must be transparent, local-first, and easy to delete.

0
installs
▌
Project Folder Cleanup · aka-kika bundle
Safely clean regenerable clutter from a project folder by scanning for build artifacts and caches, backing up every removed path into a timestamped archive with a BACKUP.md manifest, zipping the backup to save space, and only deleting originals after explicit confirmation. Use when the user asks to clean a project directory, remove node_modules, clear build output, reclaim disk space, or tidy a repo before archiving.

0
installs
▌
Macos Global Shortcuts · aka-kika
Use when adding or reviewing keyboard shortcuts in a macOS app — in-app vs global, RegisterEventHotKey vs the KeyboardShortcuts package vs NSEvent monitors, user-configurable recording, conflict handling, and which defaults won't collide with the system.

0
installs
▌
Apple Hig Command Palette · aka-kika bundle
Use when designing, reviewing, or implementing a command-palette / ⌘K layer for an Apple-platform app — keyboard-first global search, ranked and grouped results, native floating panel, and protected destructive commands.

▌
Apple Hig Search Filtering · aka-kika

installs
▌
New Project Gate · aka-kika
Run before building anything new — a pre-build gate that decides whether an idea deserves its own tool, judged from both the agent lens (legible, drivable, automatable) and the human lens (will I touch it, do I want to maintain it). Trigger on "should I build X", "starting a new project / app / tool / repo", "is this worth making", "want to spin up", or any new-build intent — even if the word "checklist" never appears. Outputs a backed GATE.md with checkmarks and a one-line verdict note in the project root docs. Do NOT load for small config tweaks, one-off scripts, bug fixes on existing things, or anything that is clearly a feature of something you already run.

0
installs
▌
Project Catch Up · aka-kika bundle
Use when returning to a repo after a break, asking what changed, what's new for this stack, or invoking project-catch-up after explain-new-project. Scans the stack for important updates, deprecations, new helper tools, agent skills, and MCP servers online—plain-language brief saved as PROJECT_CATCH_UP.md.

0
installs
▌
Project Workflow · aka-kika
Use when the user wants the full package on a repo, says run my project workflow, project check-in, or is overwhelmed opening an old or new folder. Runs the project onboarding checklist—explain-new-project, project-worth-my-time, and project-catch-up—in order or on demand.

0
installs
▌
Macos Permissions Privacy · aka-kika
Use when a macOS app needs a TCC permission or touches private data — the map of which API, Info.plist key, and entitlement each permission needs, pre-prompt explanation patterns, denied-state recovery with System Settings deep links, and honest privacy copy.

installs
▌
Old Project Audit · aka-kika
Run on an existing project to decide KEEP / MERGE / ARCHIVE — never limbo. Forces a call on tools that already exist and may have stopped earning their keep. Trigger on "is this still worth keeping", "audit this repo", "tech-debt cleanup", "sweep the folder", "what's dead here", or any signal that something hasn't been touched in months. Judged from both the agent lens (still legible, still drivable, still safe) and the human lens (do I still reach for it, does it nag). Includes a non-negotiable footgun check for stale pipelines that can overwrite live data. Outputs a backed AUDIT.md and a one-line verdict note in the project root docs. Do NOT load for greenfield projects (use new-project-gate), one-off bug fixes, or when the answer is already obvious.

0
installs
▌
Macos App Distribution Dmg · aka-kika
Use when shipping a macOS app outside the App Store — Developer ID signing with hardened runtime, notarization with notarytool, stapling, building a clean drag-to-Applications DMG, and verifying the result launches on a stranger's Mac.

0
installs
▌
Macos Clipboard Pasteboard · aka-kika
Use when reading, writing, or watching the macOS clipboard — NSPasteboard types and multiple representations, the changeCount polling pattern, the transient/concealed pasteboard conventions clipboard tools must respect, and the Sequoia paste-privacy alerts.

0

▌
Apple Hig Macos Window Layout · aka-kika
Use when designing or implementing the overall macOS app window shell — titlebar, toolbar, sidebar, content, inspector, window sizing, panels, sheets, and menu bar companion windows.

0
installs
▌
Between Runs Audit · aka-kika
Use between coding-agent runs (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, etc.) to stop the project from drifting, overbuilding, or accumulating dead weight. Forces a read-only audit that classifies every active item as KEEP / DELAY / REMOVE and ends with a single, unambiguous next action. Trigger on "audit before continuing", "what should I do next", "this project got too big", "between runs", "trim scope", "stop adding stuff", or any signal that the project feels noisy and the next step is unclear. Do NOT load for trivial one-line fixes, when the next action is already obvious, or when you're mid-run and just need to keep going.

0
installs
▌
Product Hunt Polish Review · aka-kika
Use when reviewing an app for launch-readiness — Product Hunt polish, first impression, visual hierarchy, onboarding, empty states, screenshots, positioning, and the tiny details that make it feel premium.

0
installs
▌
Explain New Project · aka-kika bundle
Use when the user adds a project to the workspace, opens an unfamiliar repo, asks "what is this project", "explain this codebase", or invokes explain-new-project. Explores a newly opened workspace project and writes a plain-language report for a self-taught, non-technical user—quick start (what it is + how to run) first, then optional depth—and always saves PROJECT_GUIDE.md in the project root.

0
installs
▌
Project Worth My Time · aka-kika bundle
Use after PROJECT_GUIDE.md exists, when the user asks if a project is worth their time, should they build vs buy, or invokes project-worth-my-time. Follow-up to explain-new-project—weighs project context (files, git history, chat) to recommend whether to invest in a repo, cherry-pick a feature, park the idea, pass, or use an existing polished product instead. Optionally enriched by a personal-memory MCP (e.g. Pieces) when one is available.
