- ▌ Lore · hugobowne bundleSpecStory Lore - mine your SpecStory coding histories (any agent - Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, and more) into a persistent corpus, surface your reproducible workflows with corroborated evidence, and interactively forge the chosen ones into skills installed across all your agent harnesses. Use when the user wants to turn past AI coding sessions into reusable skills, asks "what could I make into a skill", "mine my lore", "forge skills from my history", or points at a .specstory/history directory.
- ▌ Explain · hugobowne bundleGuided tour of changes or codebase - explains how things work conceptually rather than listing changes mechanically. Use anytime you're asked to explain, review, walk through, or summarize work, branch changes, or codebase architecture.
- ▌ Ship It · hugobowne bundleUse this skill any time you are opening a PR to ship code or the user tells you to "ship it". It explains how to write PR bodies effectively and follow the style guide.
- ▌ Here Now · hugobowne bundlehere.now lets agents publish websites and store private files in cloud Drives. Use Sites to publish HTML, documents, images, PDFs, videos, and static files to live URLs at {slug}.here.now or custom domains. Use Drives as private cloud folders where agents can store files (documents, context, memory, plans, assets, media, research, code, etc), share them with other agents, and continue across sessions and tools. Use when asked to "publish this", "host this", "deploy this", "share this on the web", "make a website", "put this online", "create a webpage", "generate a URL", "build a chatbot", "save this to my Drive", "store this for later", "write this to cloud storage", "share a folder with another agent", or "use my here.now Drive".
- ▌ Research · hugobowne bundleBuild, extend, AND query a persistent LLM-maintained wiki for any research topic. Conversational entry point that routes between four modes — query (read-only Q&A against existing research with optional Q&A save-back), init (new topic ingest), append-deep (add sources to existing topic via short rounds), and append-trusted (add a single user-vouched file to existing topic). Ingests from the Second Brain (Obsidian + Readwise + NotebookLM + GitHub repos + web seeds + user-dropped PDFs) and maintains a wiki layer (per-source pages, entities, concepts, comparisons, overview, synthesis, open questions, contradictions). Use for any research interaction — first-time research on a topic, "what do I have on X", "load my research on Y", "add this PDF to my research", "deep dive on Z", "pull together my notes on Y", "extend my research with this file". Trigger on the phrases above plus "search my research", "use my research", "find sources about X".
- ▌ Impeccable · hugobowne bundleUse 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.
- ▌ Pre Mortem · hugobowne bundleImagine future bug post-mortems for the codebase. Identifies fragile code, implicit assumptions, and likely failure modes by writing realistic incident reports for bugs that haven't happened yet.
- ▌ Try Except · hugobowne bundleAudit try/except blocks for overly broad scope, by-catch risk, and catches of built-in exceptions that should be conditional checks. Tightens each block so the try covers only the operation that can actually fail.
- ▌ Marimo Pair · hugobowne bundleWork inside a running marimo notebook's kernel — execute code, create cells, and build a notebook as an artifact. Use when the user wants to start a marimo notebook or work in an active marimo session.
- ▌ Anki Connect · hugobowne bundleThis skill is for interacting with Anki through AnkiConnect, and should be used whenever a user asks to interact with Anki, including to read or modify decks, notes, cards, models, media, or sync operations.
- ▌ Github Reply · hugobowne bundleDraft maintainer replies to GitHub PRs and issues in the user's voice. Use when the user asks to reply, respond, comment on, or review a PR/issue, or when drafting feedback for contributors. Handles approvals, change requests, closures, and issue triage. Copies result to clipboard.
- ▌ Resend Email · hugobowne bundleSend emails via Resend.com API. Use when the user wants to (1) send an email, (2) email someone, (3) send a message to an email address, (4) send email with attachments, (5) schedule an email for later. Requires RESEND_API_KEY environment variable.
- ▌ Writing Style · hugobowne bundleZinsser-first plain writing style for any writing or editing task. Invoke before creating, editing, critiquing, rewriting, outlining, prompting, or polishing prose, docs, posts, proposals, teardown notes, social posts, emails, prompts, or skill instructions.**
- ▌ Remotion Video · hugobowne bundleHow to build high-quality Remotion animated videos for social media (square 1080×1080 and vertical 1080×1920). Use this skill whenever the user asks to create, build, fix, or improve a Remotion video, animated scene, social media animation, motion design, kinetic typography, talking-head integration, scene pacing, or any motion-design work in a Remotion project. Also trigger when the user mentions scene components, animation timing, frame extraction, ease curves, or motion primitives. If you're about to write a Scene*.tsx file, read this skill first — the difference between a good and bad scene is in the approach, not the code. For re-editing existing footage into TikTok / Shorts / Reels short-form vertical with running captions and jump cuts, see the `tiktok-shorts-edit` skill instead.
- ▌ 8 Bit Video Gen · hugobowne bundleTurns a photo of a person into a short 8-bit pixel-art video via a two-step pipeline. Gemini stylizes the photo as an 8-bit still, then Replicate's seedance-2.0 animates that still into an MP4. Use when the user supplies a portrait photo and asks for an "8-bit video", "pixel art animation", or "retro video game version" of themselves. Trigger even if they only mention one of the two steps.
- ▌ Mutation Testing · hugobowne bundlePerform mutation testing on the codebase. Introduces deliberate bugs one at a time, checks whether the test suite catches each one, and reports on test suite gaps. Optionally implements missing tests.
- ▌ Project Planning · hugobowne bundlePlan new software projects by decomposing the goal into MVP tasks, researching frameworks and libraries with subagents, and preferring opinionated prebuilt solutions over bespoke complexity. Use when starting a new project, scoping an idea, choosing a stack, or producing an implementation plan for a single-user MVP.
- ▌ Writing Revision · hugobowne bundleDraft or revise any kind of writing so it is clearer, better structured, and more effective for its audience. Use for essays, emails, memos, articles, narratives, speeches, social posts, marketing copy, personal writing, documentation, technical writing, reports, proposals, and mixed-format prose while preserving meaning and facts.
- ▌ Goal Rider Author · hugobowne bundleDraft a goal+rider document pair to brief the next agentic turn on a project. Two documents — a ≤4000-char goal (the spine) and an unbounded rider (the prescriptive detail with eleven phases and depth-tests-first discipline). Run when user says "draft a goal", "new goal", "write a goal+rider", "goal+rider for the next agentic turn", "rider for X", or anything in the shape of "brief the next agent on Y".
- ▌ Prompt Refinement · hugobowne bundleRefine a prompt by interviewing the user's intent from multiple angles, generating multiple variations at different magnitudes of change, and scoring each against an editorial rubric defined before the refinement starts.
- ▌ Thread Postmortem · hugobowne bundleAnalyzes threads for friction points where the model struggled or user corrected it. Produces actionable improvements for AGENTS.md, skills, tools, and codebase. Use when asked to review a thread, do a postmortem, or analyze what went wrong.
- ▌ Verified Frontend · hugobowne bundleHelps an agent and human turn Chip Huyen's verified frontend pattern into a local skill matched to their browser tools, development environments, visual standards, and evidence workflow. Use when setting up or adapting visual verification for frontend changes.
- ▌ Magazine Explainer · hugobowne bundleResearch a topic and build a beautiful, magazine-style PDF explainer written for a specific kid — designed cover, sections, cards, comparison tables, callouts, real photos, and a closing prompt. Use this whenever Tim wants to make a guide, explainer, handbook, or "writeup" for one of his kids (e.g. "make James a guide to volcanoes", "build a magazine explainer about how rockets work for my daughter", "turn this chat into a nice PDF for my son", "research X and make it into something my kid can read"). Triggers on "explainer", "magazine-style", "field guide for my kid", "make a PDF for [child]", or any kid-facing illustrated explainer — even if Tim doesn't say "magazine". Produces a print-ready PDF via headless Chrome and always audits the prose against PROSE.md and the stop-slop skill before finalizing.
- ▌ Wikipedia Discovery · hugobowne bundleUse when navigating Wikipedia inside the split-pane extension—finding articles from a topic or phrase, teaching or routing the user toward articles, choosing what to explore next, Wikimedia REST or Action APIs with paging, or sending message_parent url_change (optional section `#fragment` on the same wiki). Use for Wikipedia search, summaries, links/backlinks, or updating the mirrored page URL.
- ▌ Formatting Notion Pages · hugobowne bundleApply rich formatting to Notion pages - toggles, callouts, headers, and styled text. Use when creating or formatting Notion documents via the Notion MCP server.
- ▌ Hermes Workflows Creating · hugobowne bundleDesign and author Hermes Workflows with typed inputs/outputs, agent/bash/ask/parallel/pipeline/goal primitives, Review Queue gates, artifacts, and verification receipts. Use when creating or modifying workflow definitions.
- ▌ High Signal Chart Workflow · hugobowne bundleUse when you have an idea for a data story and want a publication-quality chart back. The agent finds an authoritative public dataset, drafts three chart-type variants in parallel, picks the strongest, then iterates against a design checklist and a chart-design evaluator until the chart actually carries the story.
- ▌ Youtube Watch Later Gist Summaries · hugobowne bundleUse when a user wants an agent to summarise every video in their YouTube Watch Later playlist, publish one secret GitHub gist per summary with gh, and return channel/title/gists.sh summary links. Browser-tool agnostic; assumes the agent can operate the user's logged-in browser/session.
