Async Learning Teacher turns saved links, papers, posts, videos, and pasted text into teaching artifacts for later study. Use it to explain one source step by step, or to run an interactive tutor that checks understanding over multiple sessions.

Build Scenario Tests turns a narrow Markdown behavior scenario into a deterministic, repository-native test. Use it to add acceptance tests, reproduce regressions, or convert Given/When/Then specs into executable coverage.

Code Standards applies a disciplined workflow for code changes: orient, baseline, make the smallest change, test, verify, and self-review. Use it before implementing features, bug fixes, or refactors, especially when changing shared interfaces or security-sensitive code.

Create Marketing Kit turns verified product truth into campaign copy, artwork, and editable layouts. Use it for launch materials, social assets, README banners, or selective website integration when claims must stay evidence-based.

Create Skill turns a skill idea into a complete repository skill with instructions, metadata, references, scripts, artwork, README wiring, and validation. Use it when creating a new skill or making an existing workflow reusable and consistent.

Lead turns an approved goal into coordinated agent work for autonomous builds. It plans, delegates implementation and review, and finishes with one pull request without writing or running code itself.

Lead Research orchestrates deep research by delegating scouting, verification, synthesis, and audit to subagents. Use it for brainstorming, technology choices, comparisons, and state-of-the-art surveys when you need a managed research workflow.

Make Playbook guides solo makers through idea, build, launch, growth, monetization, automation, and exit decisions for bootstrapped apps. Use it to choose what to build next, diagnose stalled growth, and maintain a per-app MAKE.md tracker.

Map The Landscape builds a mental model of a topic or repository by outlining its boundaries, layers, actors, relationships, flows, and open questions. Use it when you need the big picture, need orientation, or want to understand how the pieces fit together.

Market Validation Audit runs an evidence-first market-fit and viability review for a project or idea and produces a decision doc. Use it to assess demand, competitors, timing, and next steps before spending more time building.

Name Your Business generates, refines, compares, and validates names for startups, products, tools, and organizations. Use it when you need a naming shortlist, a source-inspired variation, or current conflict checks before choosing a final name.

Orwell Writing helps draft, rewrite, and edit prose using George Orwell’s rules and ASD-STE100 plain-English principles. Use it for technical, business, creative, or general writing when clarity, brevity, and preserved meaning matter.

Paper Opportunity Radar runs a bounded literature sweep to audit paper claims, methods, integrity signals, and follow-on evidence. It is used to find credible, underexplored research ideas and separate them from hype, weak evidence, or contradicted results.

Repo System Map analyzes a repository’s implemented architecture and turns it into an interactive isometric system map with citations, dependency and data-flow paths, and a learner-focused explainer panel. It is used when you want to visualize or explain how a repo’s runtime, services, and deployment fit together.

Run Smoke Tests inspects a repository, executes a broad real-user journey through the product, and records an auditable pass, fail, or blocked judgment. Use it for release candidates, dogfooding, authentication flows, and other non-deterministic paths that need evidence.

Session Profiler turns Hermes JSONL transcripts into searchable session analysis. Use it to inspect agent and subagent activity, build timelines and cost breakdowns, find errors, and export a Perfetto trace.

Top One Percent teaches topics from first principles and builds evidence-based paths to strong capability. Use it to understand a subject deeply, compare alternatives, or create a curriculum, practice plan, or mastery roadmap.

Write Blog opens a workflow for drafting, editing, and publishing project blog posts that read naturally and target a distinct search angle. It also wires posts into the site and checks for the house voice, SEO, and no em dashes.
