- ▌ Navvy · andrewgleave bundleDiagnose a codebase through its git history before reading any code. Surfaces churn hotspots, bus factor risks, bug clusters, velocity trends, and firefighting patterns. Only invoked directly via /navvy — does not auto-trigger.
- ▌ 5 Steps · andrewgleave bundleChallenges requirements, removes unnecessary work, and simplifies design before writing code. Activates when asked to build, implement, automate, add a feature, create a service, migrate, or replace a process. Does not activate for general code writing, bug fixes, or simple edits.
- ▌ Cleanse · andrewgleave bundleReview code for readability, then simplify it to be easy to follow and understand. Use this skill when the user wants to simplify code, improve readability, clean up for handoff, make code skimmable, reduce complexity, refactor for clarity, strip boilerplate, prepare code for future maintainers, or make a codebase easier to pick up. Trigger liberally — any request touching readability, simplification, cleanup, or "make this easier to understand" should use this skill. Also trigger when the user says things like "review this", "clean this up", "tidy this", "make this simpler", "reduce complexity", "flatten this", "strip the noise", or "I want to understand this code quickly next time I open it".
- ▌ Critical Reasoning · andrewgleave bundleApply critical rationalist epistemology (Popper, Deutsch) to evaluate reasoning, identify errors, and refine understanding. Use when the user explicitly requests help with reasoning - phrases like "help me think this through", "does this make sense", "any flaws in this", "what am I missing", "critique this", "is this reasoning sound", "stress test this idea", "devil's advocate", or any request to evaluate arguments, identify logical problems, or improve thinking. Also use when errors in reasoning are significant enough to materially affect the user's goals, even if not explicitly requested.
