Improve Architecture audits an area of the codebase and proposes the smallest structural moves that improve it—untangle boundaries, kill duplication, fix seams, break cycles. It produces a prioritized plan and decision records, not a rewrite. Use it when the codebase feels tangled, hard to change, or becoming a ball of mud.

LLM Gate sets up AI-powered prompt hooks in Claude Code to validate commit messages, code patterns, and file writes before operations run. Use it to block bad commits, destructive commands, or secret leaks with fast, cheap LLM checks.

Peer Review evaluates scientific manuscripts and grant proposals using structured checklists for methodology, statistics, and reporting standards. Use when writing formal peer reviews with constructive feedback.

Requesting Code Review dispatches a code reviewer subagent with precisely crafted context to catch issues before they cascade. Use it after completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements.

Scholar Evaluation applies the ScholarEval framework to systematically assess research papers, proposals, and literature reviews across key quality dimensions including problem formulation, methodology, analysis, and writing, with quantitative scoring and actionable feedback.

Scientific Critical Thinking evaluates scientific claims and evidence quality, applying methods like GRADE and Cochrane Risk of Bias to assess experimental design, statistical validity, biases, and confounding. Use it when reviewing research papers, planning studies, or conducting systematic reviews.

Systematic Debugging guides a root cause investigation before attempting any fix for bugs, test failures, or unexpected behavior. Use it to avoid symptom fixes and ensure fixes address the underlying issue.

Test-Driven Development enforces writing failing tests before implementation code for any feature, bugfix, or behavior change. It guides a strict Red-Green-Refactor cycle and rejects rationalizations for skipping tests.

Verification Before Completion enforces running verification commands and confirming output before claiming work is complete, fixed, or passing. Use it before committing or creating PRs.

Code Review Reception establishes a verification-first workflow for responding to code review feedback, requiring technical evaluation and clarification before implementation rather than performative agreement. Use it when receiving feedback from humans or external reviewers to avoid blind implementation and ensure changes fit the codebase.

Web Best Practices applies modern web development best practices for security, compatibility, and code quality. Use it when asked to apply best practices, audit security, modernize code, review code quality, or check for vulnerabilities.

Web Quality Audit runs a comprehensive Lighthouse-based audit covering performance, accessibility, SEO, and best practices. Use it when someone asks to audit a site, review web quality, run a Lighthouse audit, check page quality, or optimize a website.
