▌
Xcode Disk Cleanup · patrickserrano bundle
Audit and safely clean Xcode-related developer storage on macOS. Use whenever a developer mentions low disk space, Xcode storage, DerivedData, simulator devices or runtimes, stale beta platforms in Xcode Settings, DeviceSupport, archives, dSYMs, CocoaPods caches, simulator dyld caches, project .build folders, downloaded Xcode DMGs/XIPs, duplicate Xcode installers, or old Xcode applications. Also use this skill proactively when you hit low storage during other work, such as a build, download, or install failing with an out-of-disk-space error. Always measure first, report recoverable GiB with evidence, and obtain explicit itemized approval before any mutation.

Video · patrickserrano bundle
When the user wants to create, generate, or produce video content using AI tools or programmatic frameworks. Also use when the user mentions 'video production,' 'AI video,' 'Remotion,' 'Hyperframes,' 'HeyGen,' 'Synthesia,' 'Veo,' 'Sora,' 'Runway,' 'Kling,' 'Seedance,' 'Hailuo,' 'MiniMax,' 'Pika,' 'Hunyuan,' 'Wan,' 'video generation,' 'AI avatar,' 'talking head video,' 'programmatic video,' 'video template,' 'explainer video,' 'product demo video,' 'video pipeline,' 'copy this edit,' 'match this video style,' 'reverse-engineer this video,' 'edit like this reference,' or 'make me a video.' Use this for video creation, generation, and production workflows. For video content strategy and what to post, see social. For paid video ad creative, see ad-creative.

▌
Caveman · patrickserrano
Use when the user says "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", "use caveman", "less tokens", or "be brief", invokes /caveman, or when token efficiency is requested. Switches responses to an ultra-compressed terse style (multiple intensity levels available, ~75% token reduction) while preserving full technical accuracy.

▌
Handoff · patrickserrano
Write a structured handoff document before a session ends, before a context-heavy interruption (SSH/tmux disconnect, context running low, a worktree being handed to another worker or agent), or when explicitly asked for a handoff — captures progress, what worked/failed, and the exact next step so a fresh session can resume without re-deriving context. Own version of the dx plugin's `/dx:handoff`.

installs
▌
Cold Email · patrickserrano bundle
Write B2B cold emails and follow-up sequences that get replies. Use when the user wants to write cold outreach emails, prospecting emails, cold email campaigns, sales development emails, or SDR emails. Also use when the user mentions "cold outreach," "prospecting email," "outbound email," "email to leads," "reach out to prospects," "sales email," "follow-up email sequence," "nobody's replying to my emails," or "how do I write a cold email." Covers subject lines, opening lines, body copy, CTAs, personalization, and multi-touch follow-up sequences. For warm/lifecycle email sequences, see emails. For sales collateral beyond emails, see sales-enablement.

▌
Manager Loop · patrickserrano
Run a large batch of independent work items (a fleet-wide harvest, a multi-repo sync-down, an overnight backlog) as a persistent coordinator loop instead of one item at a time. Use when there are enough independent units of work that dispatch-review-merge would otherwise repeat many times in a row, or when the batch should keep making progress across a heartbeat interval instead of stalling until the next message.

installs
▌
Claude Rescue · patrickserrano bundle
Use when running under Codex CLI and stuck, wanting a second implementation or diagnosis pass, or handing a substantial task to Claude Code through a real Claude Code subprocess — a genuinely different reasoning system, not another Codex run. Not relevant outside Codex sessions.

0
installs
▌
Github CI Fix · patrickserrano
Use when PR checks fail, CI is red, or GitHub Actions workflows break - systematically inspects failing checks via gh CLI, pulls logs, checks for flakiness and scopes the breaking commit, scopes external checks, then creates fix plan using existing plan skill

0
installs
▌
Xcsym · patrickserrano bundle
Symbolicate and triage iOS/macOS crash reports (.ips, MetricKit, legacy .crash, Xcode Organizer .xccrashpoint) via the `xcsym` CLI. Use when given a crash file to diagnose, when TestFlight/App Store Connect crashes need triage, when a crash comes back unsymbolicated, or when asked what kind of crash something is.

▌
Claudemd Review · patrickserrano
Use right after being corrected on something a CLAUDE.md file should already have told you, when explicitly asked to review CLAUDE.md, or periodically after a session with a lot of back-and-forth — reviews THIS conversation for friction and proposes a bounded CLAUDE.md edit. A lightweight, single-session complement to skill-tuning-loop (which mines many sessions and validates a proposal against held-out cases before surfacing it — reach for that instead when the ask is "make this systematic," not "check right now"). Own version of the dx plugin's `/dx:review-claudemd`.

installs
▌
Security Review · patrickserrano
Adversarial security review of a change (branch diff, PR, or working tree) before merge. Use when the user asks to "review this for security", "security review", "check for vulnerabilities", "is this safe to merge", or before merging anything that touches a trust boundary — auth/authz, input parsing, secrets/keychains, file writes, shelling out, untrusted-input-into-shell/YAML, CI workflows that run on privileged runners, or generated LLM instructions. Also the standing gate this repo runs on every lacquer PR.

installs
▌
Helm Asc · patrickserrano bundle
Use this skill whenever the task involves `helm-asc`, the Helm CLI, or App Store Connect automation through Helm. Trigger for app discovery, versions, localizations, screenshots, previews, TestFlight groups, group aliases, builds, in-app purchases, subscriptions, IAP pricing, offers, review replies, review signatures, review submissions, and Helm account setup or switching, even if the user only asks to "use the CLI" or automate App Store Connect work.

▌
Exploring An Idea · patrickserrano
Use at the very start of a new product idea — before a PRD, PCD, repo, or name exists, and any time someone says "I have an idea for", "should we build", "let's scope out", or asks for a PRD/PCD from scratch. Separates what is known from what is assumed, and forces the load-bearing assumptions to be measured before they become architecture. Works in Claude Desktop (research only) and Claude Code (research plus probes).

▌
Skill Tuning Loop · patrickserrano
Empirically test whether a lacquer skill needs an edit by mining real session transcripts for friction, proposing a bounded fix, and validating it against held-out cases before it ships. Use when a skill in core/skills/ or profiles/*/skills/ keeps getting corrected in practice, when triaging a scheduled tuning-pass PR, or when skill-authoring-standard's manual rubric isn't enough to tell whether a proposed edit actually helps. Distinct from skill-authoring-standard (a static prose rubric checked by a human) — this is an empirical, evidence-gated loop checked by rollouts.

▌
Advisor Checkpoint · patrickserrano
Consult a stronger model mid-task for a second opinion before committing to an approach, when stuck, or before declaring a non-trivial task done — the fast-executor + strong-advisor pattern, implemented with the Agent and Workflow tools (Claude Code does not expose Anthropic's raw API advisor tool). Use when running on a cheaper/faster model for mechanical work and a hard design/architecture/risk decision needs a stronger check, or when authoring a Workflow script that should get expert review partway through instead of only at the end.

installs
▌
Antigravity Rescue · patrickserrano bundle
Use when stuck, wanting a second implementation or diagnosis pass, or handing a substantial task to Google's Antigravity CLI (agy) through a real subprocess -- a genuinely different agent harness, not just another model. Not relevant when already running under Antigravity CLI itself.

installs
▌
Evaluator Optimizer · patrickserrano
Generate a solution, evaluate it against explicit pass/fail criteria, refine using the feedback, repeat until it passes or a round cap is hit. Use for tasks with a clear, checkable bar and demonstrable value from iteration — a bug fix that must pass a test suite, code that must satisfy a lint/style rubric, a document that must meet stated requirements. Distinct from advisor-checkpoint (one strategic consult before committing) — this is a convergence loop against a concrete standard.

installs
▌
Nameplate Attention · patrickserrano
On-screen agent alert: topmost message card + pulsating screen borders via Nameplate. Use before password-manager auth prompts or whenever blocked on the human.

0
installs
▌
Private Repo Search · patrickserrano
Use when you need to find code, a pattern, or a past implementation across GitHub repos — including private ones you have access to — not just the current working directory. grep/Glob only reach the checked-out repo; this reaches everywhere `gh` is authenticated for. Own version of the dx plugin's `/dx:private-github-search`.

installs
▌
Working With Lacquer · patrickserrano
Use when working in a lacquer-managed project (one with a .lacquer.toml) and anything about that management comes up: the drift audit inside the "Detect changed paths" CI job fails, `lacquer audit` exits 3/4/6, a lint config or CI workflow you edited reverts on the next sync, a hook or workflow needs changing, the project can't meet a baseline yet, a new stack (Swift package, backend, web app) is added to the repo, or a project needs onboarding.

installs
▌
Github Issue Fix Flow · patrickserrano
Use when asked to take a GitHub issue number, implement a fix, run builds/tests, commit with a closing message, and push. End-to-end workflow using gh CLI, local code changes, and git.

0
installs
▌
Skill Authoring Standard · patrickserrano
The bar a SKILL.md must clear before it ships in this lacquer — tight trigger-oriented frontmatter, single responsibility, no padding, companion files only when genuinely needed. Use when writing a new skill, reviewing an existing one, or auditing the skill set for quality.

0
installs
▌
Core Data Expert · patrickserrano bundle
Expert Core Data guidance (iOS/macOS) covering stack setup, fetch requests & NSFetchedResultsController, saving/merge conflicts, threading & Swift Concurrency, batch operations & persistent history, migrations, performance, and NSPersistentCloudKitContainer/CloudKit sync. Use when setting up a Core Data stack, debugging threading/concurrency crashes, resolving NSMergeConflict or constraint violations, planning a schema migration, integrating CloudKit sync, or diagnosing Core Data performance/memory issues.

▌
Macos CI Recipes · patrickserrano
Copy-in CI recipes for adding macOS build/test/lint to a project on the ios profile — either a macOS-only app with no iOS target, or a hybrid app that also ships a separate macOS scheme sharing code with an iOS target. Use when scaffolding CI for a new macOS app, or adding a macOS target/scheme to an existing iOS project. The lacquer does not auto-sync macOS CI (only two fleet projects have needed it so far — not enough signal to justify conditional asset sync yet); these are reference recipes you copy into your project's own workflow files, adapted from two real, working implementations (a macOS-only app and an iOS+macOS hybrid).

installs
▌
IOS Secrets Setup · patrickserrano
Use when wiring a new app-runtime service key (RevenueCat, Aptabase, …) into a project — setting up `Secrets.xcconfig`, surfacing a key through `project.yml` into `Info.plist`, and reading it at runtime. Distinct from CI/server secrets, which live in GitHub Actions secrets and never touch an xcconfig — see the project's `CLAUDE.md` Secrets section for that split.

0
installs
▌
Macos Development · patrickserrano bundle
Use when building or debugging a macOS app and the request involves — (1) AppKit/SwiftUI interop or modernizing AppKit code, (2) App Sandbox / file-access entitlement errors, especially "works in Xcode, fails in TestFlight", (3) menu bar commands, keyboard shortcuts, or a menu item stuck disabled, (4) multi-window scenes (WindowGroup, Window, MenuBarExtra, openWindow), (5) the Settings/Preferences scene, (6) ScreenCaptureKit screen recording or sharing, (7) SwiftUI-on-macOS behavior that differs from iOS (Table, Inspector, NavigationSplitView, focus), or (8) notarized Developer ID distribution outside the App Store.

installs
▌
Swift Concurrency · patrickserrano bundle
Diagnose data races, convert callback-based code to async/await, implement actor isolation patterns, resolve Sendable conformance issues, and guide Swift 6 migration. Use when developers mention: (1) Swift Concurrency, async/await, actors, or tasks, (2) "use Swift Concurrency" or "modern concurrency patterns", (3) migrating to Swift 6, (4) data races or thread safety issues, (5) refactoring closures to async/await, (6) @MainActor, Sendable, or actor isolation, (7) concurrent code architecture or performance optimization, (8) concurrency-related linter warnings (SwiftLint or similar; e.g. async_without_await, Sendable/actor isolation/MainActor lint).

installs
▌
Swiftui View Refactor · patrickserrano
Refactor a SwiftUI view file for consistent property ordering, MV patterns, view model handling, and Observation usage; split an oversized body via same-file computed view properties or MARK-organized extensions. Use when asked to clean up a SwiftUI view's layout, reorder its properties, or standardize dependency/view-model initialization. For extracting reusable subviews, @ViewBuilder, container patterns, AnyView, or ZStack vs overlay/background composition, use swiftui-expert-skill instead.

0
installs
▌
Xcode Build Benchmark · patrickserrano bundle
Benchmark Xcode clean and incremental builds with repeatable inputs, timing summaries, and timestamped `.build-benchmark/` artifacts. Use when a developer wants a baseline, wants to compare before and after changes, asks to measure build performance, mentions build times, build duration, how long builds take, or wants to know if builds got faster or slower.

0
installs
▌
Xcode Project Analyzer · patrickserrano bundle
Audit Xcode project configuration, build settings, scheme behavior, and script phases to find build-time improvements with explicit approval gates.

0
installs
▌
Swift Testing Wait Until · patrickserrano
Use when a test needs to wait for an async state change instead of a fixed delay — the `no_task_sleep_in_tests` lint rule bans arbitrary `Task.sleep` in tests because it causes flaky failures. Provides the `waitUntil` polling helper to add to a test target instead.

0
installs
▌
Xcode Build Orchestrator · patrickserrano bundle
Orchestrate Xcode build optimization by benchmarking first, running the specialist analysis skills, prioritizing findings, requesting explicit approval, delegating approved fixes to xcode-build-fixer, and re-benchmarking after changes.
