Skill Documentation

End-user-facing documentation for compound-engineering plugin skills. Each page covers the skill's high-level purpose, novel mechanics, use cases, and chain position relative to other skills.

For runtime behavior and contributor reference, the SKILL.md in each skill's source folder under skills/ is authoritative.

The compound-engineering core loop

   [/ce-ideate]       (optional) "What's worth exploring?"
        │
        ▼
┌─→ /ce-brainstorm    "What does this need to be?"
│       │
│       ▼
│   /ce-plan          "What's needed to accomplish this?"
│       │
│       ▼
│   /ce-work          "Build it."

└── /ce-compound      "Capture what we learned."

/ce-compound is the closer that makes the loop compound: it writes learnings into docs/solutions/, which the next iteration's /ce-brainstorm and /ce-plan read as grounding — that return arrow is the whole point. /ce-ideate is an optional prelude for when you don't yet know what to work on. Everything else in this catalog is either an anchor around the loop or an on-demand tool used when a specific need arises — not a step you walk through every time.

The Core Loop

The steps of every engineering iteration. /ce-ideate runs only when you need to find a direction first; the other four run in order per piece of work.

Skill Description
/ce-ideate Optional first step — discover strong, qualified directions worth exploring with six conceptual frames, warrant requirement, adversarial filtering
/ce-brainstorm Define what something should become — collaborative dialogue, named gap lenses, requirements-only unified plan
/ce-plan Bound execution with guardrails — enrich unified plans with U-IDs, test scenarios, automatic confidence check; WHAT decisions, not HOW code
/ce-work Execute against implementation-ready plan guardrails — figure out the HOW with code in front of you, ship through quality gates
/ce-compound Close the loop by capturing what you learned into docs/solutions/ so the next iteration starts smarter — bug track + knowledge track

Around the Loop

Skills that anchor, feed, or maintain the loop without being steps inside it.

Skill Description
/ce-strategy Create or maintain STRATEGY.md — the upstream anchor read by ce-ideate, ce-brainstorm, and ce-plan as grounding
/ce-product-pulse Outer feedback loop — single-page time-windowed report on usage, performance, errors, followups; saved to docs/pulse-reports/ as a timeline
/ce-sweep Recurring feedback sweep — ingest Slack/GitHub items (email experimental) since per-source cursors, acknowledge at source, analyze recordings, verify fixes merged, and reconcile an /lfg-ready rolling plan
/ce-compound-refresh Maintain docs/solutions/ over time — five outcomes (Keep / Update / Consolidate / Replace / Delete), Interactive + Autofix modes

On-Demand

Invoked when a specific need arises — not part of any chain.

Skill Description
/ce-pov Form a decisive, project-grounded POV as an adoption verdict, holistic document take, or position on supplied approaches — optional named/oracle panel with repository grounding, bounded debate, and distinct Cursor-default/Composer routes
/ce-explain Turn a concept, a diff, an idea, or a window of your own recent work into a dense, visual explainer written for you personally — optional check-in (predict-then-reveal for diffs, corrected exercises), capability-detected destination ask
/ce-debug Find root causes systematically — causal chain gate, predictions, post-fix polish/review, PR handoff
/ce-code-review Structured code review with skill-local reviewer personas, confidence-gated findings, four modes
/ce-doc-review Review requirements or plan documents using skill-local reviewer personas — coherence, feasibility, product-lens, design-lens, security-lens, scope-guardian, adversarial
/ce-simplify-code Refine recently changed code — reuse, quality, and efficiency review; behavior preservation verified
/ce-optimize Metric-driven iterative optimization loops — three-tier evaluation, parallel experiments, persistence discipline

Research & Context

Skill Description
/ce-riffrec-feedback-analysis Turn raw Riffrec recordings into structured feedback — quick bug or extensive analysis with ce-brainstorm handoff

Git Workflow

Skill Description
/ce-commit Create a single, well-crafted git commit — convention-aware, sensitive-file-safe, file-level logical splitting
/ce-commit-push-pr Go from working changes to an open PR with adaptive descriptions, related-reference handling, three modes (full workflow / description update / description-only generation), and a concept-teaching section for anything the change newly introduces
/ce-babysit-pr Watch an open PR and keep it moving toward merge — react to incoming review comments (via /ce-resolve-pr-feedback) and CI failures (via /ce-debug) as each arrives, comments-first, with a crash-safe resumable tick, continuous or checkpoint mode per harness, and a settle window that avoids premature "ready to merge"
/ce-worktree Ensure work happens in an isolated git worktree — detect existing isolation, prefer the harness's native worktree tool, fall back to plain git

Autonomous Pipeline

Skill Description
/lfg Run the full hands-off engineering pipeline from planning through a green PR — plan, work, simplify, review, fix, browser-test, ship, and watch CI

Frontend Design

Skill Description
/ce-polish Conversational UX polish — start dev server, open browser, iterate together; auto-detects 8 frameworks (manual invocation only)

Collaboration

Skill Description
/ce-proof Publish, view, comment on, and edit markdown via Proof, Every's collaborative editor — hosted v3 web API with owner credential lifecycle

Workflow Utilities

Skill Description
/ce-promote Draft user-facing announcement copy for a shipped feature (X, changelog, LinkedIn, email) — voice-matched via the optional Spiral CLI, a lite layer of editorial & social expertise without it, drafts only
/ce-resolve-pr-feedback Evaluate, fix, and reply to PR review feedback in parallel — including nitpicks
/ce-dogfood Hands-off diff-scoped browser QA of the active branch — maps flows, autonomously fixes small breakages with regression tests and commits, writes a durable report (manual invocation only)
/ce-test-browser End-to-end browser tests using a host-native browser with agent-browser fallback
/ce-test-xcode Build and test iOS apps on simulator using XcodeBuildMCP — screenshots, logs, human verification
/ce-setup Diagnose optional tool capabilities and bootstrap safe project-local config
/ce-handoff Create a session handoff at the default temp store or a requested destination, then discover or orient from a selected source — no automatic continuation
