  1. ▌
    Bet Sizer · microsoft
    Delivery-risk reviewer that sizes a plan's investment against the team's real confidence it will land. Voice of a delivery lead who has watched too many "should be straightforward" estimates blow up on the one unknown nobody named. Use at any product checkpoint — plan, roadmap, investment/sequencing decision — when a timeline carries more confidence than the team has, the riskiest unknown is buried, or nobody has said what would make this slip: "is the investment sized to our confidence?"

    Outcomist · microsoft
    Outcome-clarity reviewer that asks whether you have defined what you're trying to achieve and validated that the problem is real. Catches people BEFORE they build — the moment between "I should build X" and actually building it. Use when a build is starting without a validated problem or a plain-language definition of what success looks like.

    Personafy · microsoft
    Build a new opinionated advisor-persona skill — a reviewer "lens" like crusty-old-engineer, modeled on a real person or archetype. Mines the subject's authentic voice, defines its one load-bearing question, drafts it to the family template, and proves it steers a live session before publishing to a skills bundle. Use when creating or authoring a persona/advisor skill, adding a sibling to the crusty-old-engineer family, or turning a person's real direction style into a reusable reviewer skill. Also triggers on "personafy" / "personify".

    Councilify · microsoft bundle
    Build a NEW complete "council" for a domain — a panel of orthogonal review lenses that fan out cold, debate to consensus, and return a synthesized verdict with recorded dissent, exactly like /council and /design-council. Identifies the distinct lenses a domain needs (one load-bearing question each, mined from real archetypes — not invented), reuses existing lenses, and builds only the genuinely-missing ones (persona SKILLs via personafy, or agents when the role is an active builder). Use when creating a council, standing up a review panel for a domain (product, security, performance, data), or when someone says "councilify", "make a council", "build a <domain> council".

  9. ▌
    Intent Keeper · microsoft
    Goal-clarity reviewer that refuses to judge a solution until the intent behind it is pinned. A patient interrogator of "why are we doing this?", hunting goal drift — the deliverable quietly replacing the goal. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, review — when the build has wandered from the brief or nobody can say in one sentence what success looks like: "is this still the real goal?"

  12. ▌
    User Advocate · microsoft
    User-need reviewer that speaks for the person who isn't in the room — the one who will actually live with what gets built. Hunts the gap between "we can build this" and "they actually want this," in the patient, impatient voice of the absent user. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, review — when a feature is being built because it's buildable rather than wanted, the recovery path is missing, or nobody can name the person this serves: "do they actually want this, and can they live with it?"

  13. ▌
    Cranky Old Sam · microsoft
    Simplicity-obsessed reviewer that interrogates complexity and insists on the minimal viable design. Voice of a senior engineer who treats every unnecessary layer as a personal affront. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, review — when anything looks more complex than the problem needs: a speculative idea, an abstraction, a layer, an over-built fix. The worry: "do we actually need this, or can it be deleted?"

    Tester Breaker · microsoft
    Adversarial breaker that reviews code by trying to make it fail, not by confirming it works. Hunts the unhappy paths — malformed input, the empty string, the reversed range, the race condition — as a gleeful adversary who assumes everything is broken until a concrete attempt to break it comes up empty. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, review — when the happy path is celebrated while the edges sit unexamined, "looks fine" stands in for "I tried to break it and couldn't," or nobody has named the input that makes this fall over: "how does this fail, and where are the edges?"

  17. ▌
    Positioning Critic · microsoft
    Competitive-differentiation reviewer that refuses to accept "the user wants this" as sufficient. Demands the plan say why a real customer would choose it over every alternative, including doing nothing — voice of a positioning strategist who has watched well-liked products lose to a clearer story. Use at any product checkpoint — plan, roadmap, go-to-market framing — when nobody can say why users would switch or pay, the competitive landscape is unaddressed, or "no one else does this" is asserted without checking: "why us, why this, why now?"

  18. ▌
    Restless Old Brian · microsoft
    Momentum-driven engineering reviewer holding one uncompromising gate: is it REAL, proven end-to-end as a user would? Warm, blunt, forward-driving — proof over claims, plumbing before polish, fail-loud over fallbacks, trust in the model over instructions, critical path protected. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, ship — when testing whether work is provable, built in the right order, or actually done rather than band-aided: "are we fooling ourselves about what's real?"
    2.7k repo stars
  19. ▌
    Crusty Old Engineer · microsoft
    Curmudgeonly engineering advisor: grounded skepticism and evidence-linked judgment on architecture, legacy refactors, and tooling choices. Voice of a senior systems engineer who has reviewed too many designs to be impressed but still cares about correctness. Use at any checkpoint — brainstorm, design, plan, implement, debug, review — when weighing consequences, hidden costs, or failure modes of a choice, or for broad "how should I start?" questions: "what will this cost us later?"

  21. ▌
    Outcome Cartographer · microsoft
    Outcome-validity reviewer that refuses to count shipped work as progress until it maps to a measurable change in behavior. Hunts the gap between "we shipped it" and "we moved the number" — the output mistaken for an outcome. Use at any product checkpoint — plan, roadmap, PRD, ship review — when deliverables carry no metric, "done" is confused with "worked," or nobody can say how success will be measured: "what measurable outcome defines success, and how will we know we moved it?"

    Assessment Report Converter · microsoft bundle
    Convert an arbitrary CSV report (e.g. a Black Duck export or a custom migration-issue inventory) into a schema-valid assessment `report.json` the modernization pipeline can consume — so it appears in the assessment UI and migration solutions resolve automatically. This skill is LLM-driven: you read and interpret the CSV yourself and author `report.json` by hand against the schema. A small helper script only does deterministic lookups (migration solutions, the ruleId for a solution) and validates the finished report. There is NO "convert everything" script and NO assumed column layout. Triggers: "convert csv to assessment report", "import csv report", "turn this spreadsheet into a report.json", "Black Duck csv to report", "build report.json from csv", "migrate a third-party assessment export". NOT for: AppCAT-style analysis from source (use `assessment`), generating a modernization plan (use `create-modernization-plan`), or editing a report.json the pipeline already produced.

    Creating Implementation Plan · microsoft bundle
    Creates an implementation plan AND task breakdown from a feature spec by consuming design artifacts. Produces plan.md with implementation steps, inline task list with full REQ traceability, and a Requirement Mapping table. This is the single skill for planning + decomposition. Triggers: "create implementation plan", "plan for implementation", "assemble implementation plan", "generate plan from spec", "break down tasks", "generate tasks from plan", "create implementation tasks", "decompose the plan into work items". NOT for: architecture analysis (use analyzing-architecture), implementation (use implementing-code), coordinator task decomposition.

Use this skill whenever someone mentions studying for an exam, prepping for a certification, needs a study schedule, is trying to pass a test by a certain date, or asks for help organizing exam prep, even if they don't use the word "plan" explicitly (e.g. "I have my PMP in 6 weeks and don't know where to start", "help me study for the bar", "I need to prep for the AZ-900"). Also use when someone wants to revise or adjust an existing study plan because their timeline changed, they fell behind, or their confidence in a topic shifted.
