Define and manage cognitive patterns for agent reasoning and decision-making
Use when working on the Chat Customizations editor — the management UI for agents, skills, instructions, hooks, prompts, MCP servers, and plugins.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a plugin", "scaffold a plugin", "understand plugin structure", "organize plugin components", "set up plugin.json", "use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}", "add commands/agents/skills/hooks", "configure auto-discovery", or needs guidance on plugin directory layout, manifest configuration, component organization, file naming conventions, or Claude Code plugin architecture best practices.
Create Git branches, commits, pushes, and GitHub pull requests for Next.js. Use when the user asks to create a branch, commit current changes, open a PR or draft PR, publish a pull request, or recover from gh pr create / PR template issues. Covers .github/pull_request_template.md, --body formatting, codex/ branch names, and Codex app git directives.
Read every docs/benchmarks/runs/*.json and surface drift in win rate, latency, escalation rate, and LLM-baseline cost over time
Run agent-driven VS Code performance or memory investigations. Use when asked to launch Code OSS, automate a VS Code scenario, run the Chat memory smoke runner, capture renderer heap snapshots, take workflow screenshots, compare run summaries, or drive a repeatable scenario before heap-snapshot analysis.
This skill should be used when the user asks about "plugin settings", "store plugin configuration", "user-configurable plugin", ".local.md files", "plugin state files", "read YAML frontmatter", "per-project plugin settings", or wants to make plugin behavior configurable. Documents the .claude/plugin-name.local.md pattern for storing plugin-specific configuration with YAML frontmatter and markdown content.
How to create and maintain agent skills in .agents/skills/. Use when creating a new SKILL.md, writing skill descriptions, choosing frontmatter fields, or deciding what content belongs in a skill vs AGENTS.md. Covers the supported spec fields, description writing, naming conventions, and the relationship between always-loaded AGENTS.md and on-demand skills.
Auto-capture per-session token usage from the Claude Code session jsonl and persist to the cost-tracking namespace
Analyze Agent Host debug log exports. Use when given an ah-logs or ahp-logs zip/folder, an Export Agent Host Debug Logs bundle, events.jsonl, AHP JSONL transport logs, Agent Host.log, remote-agenthost.log, or copilot-logs.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "add MCP server", "integrate MCP", "configure MCP in plugin", "use .mcp.json", "set up Model Context Protocol", "connect external service", mentions "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} with MCP", or discusses MCP server types (SSE, stdio, HTTP, WebSocket). Provides comprehensive guidance for integrating Model Context Protocol servers into Claude Code plugins for external tool and service integration.
Create and maintain Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) optimized for agentic coding workflows. Use when you need to propose, write, update, accept/reject, deprecate, or supersede an ADR; bootstrap an adr folder and index; consult existing ADRs before implementing changes; or enforce ADR conventions. This skill uses Socratic questioning to capture intent before drafting, and validates output against an agent-readiness checklist.
Use when writing, recording, updating, validating, or troubleshooting the agent host end-to-end tests under src/vs/platform/agentHost/test/node/e2e (black-box tests that drive the whole agent host over the AHP protocol, using a CapiReplayProxy record/replay system for Claude/Copilot/Codex). Covers adding a cross-provider test, re-recording fixtures after an SDK bump, cross-platform Azure validation, gating non-deterministic or platform-specific tests, and diagnosing replay cache misses.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a hook", "add a PreToolUse/PostToolUse/Stop hook", "validate tool use", "implement prompt-based hooks", "use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}", "set up event-driven automation", "block dangerous commands", or mentions hook events (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStop, SessionStart, SessionEnd, UserPromptSubmit, PreCompact, Notification). Provides comprehensive guidance for creating and implementing Claude Code plugin hooks with focus on advanced prompt-based hooks API.
Guide for adding new AI SDK harness packages. Use when creating a new @ai-sdk/harness-<name> package that adapts a coding-agent runtime to HarnessV1.
Route tasks through hooks_route, partition by Agent Booster availability, and report Tier 1 bypass utilization with $0 cost
Build and review cross-cutting agent-host chat behavior through lifecycle contributions. Use when adding turn lifecycle side effects, prompt or context injection, restored-history transformation, protocol-action observation, or when reviewing changes that add code to AgentSideEffects or AgentService.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create a slash command", "add a command", "write a custom command", "define command arguments", "use command frontmatter", "organize commands", "create command with file references", "interactive command", "use AskUserQuestion in command", or needs guidance on slash command structure, YAML frontmatter fields, dynamic arguments, bash execution in commands, user interaction patterns, or command development best practices for Claude Code.
Build AI chat interfaces using ai-elements components — conversations, messages, tool displays, prompt inputs, and more. Use when the user wants to build a chatbot, AI assistant UI, or any AI-powered chat interface.
Apply a simple code transform via agent-booster's WASM engine — sub-millisecond, deterministic, $0 (no LLM call). Companion to cost-booster-route.
Review an implementation plan produced by the Plan agent. It is CRITICAL to review plans before handing off to implementation — plans often have gaps, incorrect assumptions, or suboptimal sequencing that are cheaper to catch now than after coding. Use when the user asks to 'review the plan', 'check my plan', 'is this plan ready', or after the Plan agent produces a plan.md.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create an agent", "add an agent", "write a subagent", "agent frontmatter", "when to use description", "agent examples", "agent tools", "agent colors", "autonomous agent", or needs guidance on agent structure, system prompts, triggering conditions, or agent development best practices for Claude Code plugins.
