What Exploration does

Exploration turns rough ideas into validated designs through collaborative interview, or creates throwaway spike code to answer one design question. It is used when an agent needs to clarify scope before planning or prototype a risky choice.

Exploration is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Exploration comes from a repository tagged agent-harness, claude-code, claude-code-plugin, context-engineering and harness-engineering.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Exploration (Design + Spike)

Two modes, selected by router dispatch context: design (brainstorm a design) or spike (throwaway prototype). DESIGN includes an optional inline sub-procedure, the Doubt Pass, for high-stakes decisions — it is not a third mode.

Mode: DESIGN

Turn rough ideas into validated designs through collaborative dialogue. Understand what to build BEFORE designing how to build it. Use the user's domain language — don't invent new terminology when the repo or prompt already has a stable name.

Scope Triage (Front of Flow)

Before opening the interview, decide whether this is ONE design or MANY. A request spanning multiple independent subsystems produces a sprawling, unfocused design.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.

Frequently asked about Exploration

What else does romiluz13 publish alongside Exploration?
Exploration is one of 21 skills that DirSkills catalogs from romiluz13/cc10x, the repository it ships in. Its siblings there include Agent Common, Architecture and Building. Each one is a separate skill with its own page in this directory, installs the same way Exploration does, and is maintained by romiluz13 in that same repository. The rest of the collection is listed on the romiluz13/cc10x page.
How does Exploration compare to other AI Engineering skills?
Exploration ranks #3378 by stars among the 3670 AI Engineering skills in this catalog. The most-starred ones next to it are Architecture Decision Records, AI-First Engineering and Agentic OS. DirSkills ranks by the star count of the repository each skill ships in, so that order reflects how popular those repositories are rather than any review of Exploration against them. Open each page to compare what they document and how they install.

Agent Common

Agent Common provides the shared preamble for cc10x agents, including memory loading, contract formatting, and output rules. Use it when an agent needs the standard workflow and read-only domain glossary.

Architecture

Architecture designs greenfield systems by mapping functionality flows, components, APIs, dependencies, and observability. Use it for new systems or major multi-component features; for existing code with shallow modules, use codebase-hygiene instead.

Building

Building writes production code with test-first discipline using RED-GREEN-REFACTOR, vertical slicing, and safe refactoring. Use it when implementing features or fixes that need reliable tests and code generation patterns.

Cc10X Update

Cc10X Update safely upgrades cc10x while preserving local changes. Use it to check for new versions, pull upstream, rebuild the cache, and reapply patches.

Cc10x Guide

Cc10x Guide answers questions about cc10x itself, including installation, configuration, workflows, memory, hooks, and troubleshooting. It is for explanation only; setup, updates, and work requests route to other skills.

Cc10x Router

Cc10x Router routes code requests into build, debug, review, plan, triage, or orient workflows. Use it when a request needs immediate orchestration, task execution, validation, and persistence.

Architecture Decision Records

Architecture Decision Records captures architectural decisions made during Claude Code sessions as structured ADRs, recording context, alternatives, and rationale. Use it when significant technical choices are made so future developers understand why the codebase is shaped the way it is.

AI-First Engineering

AI-First Engineering defines process, review, and architecture standards for teams where AI agents produce most implementation output. Use it to set ownership rules, quality gates, and evaluation criteria for agent-generated code.

Agentic OS

Agentic OS codifies a persistent multi-agent operating system architecture for Claude Code. Use it when building a multi-agent workflow with file-based memory, slash commands, and scheduled automation that survives session restarts.
