+ # AIDP Skills System
2
+
3
+ ## Overview
4
+
5
+ Skills define **WHO** the agent is (persona, expertise, capabilities), separate from templates/procedures which define **WHAT** task to execute.
6
+
7
+ This separation allows for:
8
+
9
+ - Reusable personas across multiple tasks
10
+ - Provider-agnostic skill definitions
11
+ - Clear distinction between agent identity and task execution
12
+ - Easier customization and overriding of agent behaviors
13
+
14
+ ## Skill Structure
15
+
16
+ Each skill is a directory containing a `SKILL.md` file:
17
+
18
+ ```text
19
+ skills/
20
+ └── repository_analyst/
21
+ └── SKILL.md
22
+ ```
23
+
24
+ ### SKILL.md Format
25
+
26
+ Skills use YAML frontmatter for metadata and markdown for content:
27
+
28
+ ```markdown
29
+ ---
30
+ id: repository_analyst
31
+ name: Repository Analyst
32
+ description: Expert in version control analysis and code evolution patterns
33
+ version: 1.0.0
34
+ expertise:
35
+ - version control system analysis (Git, SVN, etc.)
36
+ - code churn analysis and hotspots identification

+ ## Skill Locations
87
+
88
+ ### Template Skills
89
+
90
+ Located in `templates/skills/` in the AIDP gem. These are read-only templates installed with the AIDP gem and cover common use cases; they cannot be modified directly in your project.
91
+
92
+ - **repository_analyst**: Version control and code evolution analysis
93
+ - **product_strategist**: Product planning and requirements gathering
94
+ - **architecture_analyst**: Architecture analysis and pattern identification
95
+ - **test_analyzer**: Test suite analysis and quality assessment
96
+
97
+ ### Project Skills
98
+
99
+ Located in `.aidp/skills/` for project-specific skills:
100
+
101
+ ```text
102
+ .aidp/
103
+ └── skills/
104
+ └── my_custom_skill/
105
+ └── SKILL.md
106
+ ```
107
+
108
+ Project skills with matching IDs override template skills.
109
+
110
+ ## Using Skills
111
+
112
+ ### In Step Specifications
113
+
114
+ Reference skills in step specs (e.g., [analyze/steps.rb](lib/aidp/analyze/steps.rb#L6-L60)):
115
+
116
+ ```ruby
117
+ SPEC = {
118
+ "01_REPOSITORY_ANALYSIS" => {
119
+ "skill" => "repository_analyst",
120
+ "templates" => ["analysis/analyze_repository.md"],
121
+ "description" => "Repository mining",
122
+ "outs" => ["docs/analysis/repository_analysis.md"],
123
+ "gate" => false
124
+ }
125
+ }
126
+ ```
127
+
128
+ ### Programmatic Access
129
+
130
+ ```ruby
131
+ # Load skills registry
132
+ registry = Aidp::Skills::Registry.new(project_dir: Dir.pwd)
133
+ registry.load_skills
134
+
135
+ # Find a skill
136
+ skill = registry.find("repository_analyst")
137
+
138
+ # Search skills
139
+ matching_skills = registry.search("git")
140
+
141
+ # Filter by keyword
142
+ analysis_skills = registry.by_keyword("analysis")
143
+
144
+ # Check provider compatibility
145
+ compatible = registry.compatible_with("anthropic")
146
+ ```
147
+
148
+ ### Composing with Templates
149
+
150
+ Skills are automatically composed with templates by the runner:
151
+
152
+ ```ruby
153
+ # In runner
154
+ skill = skills_registry.find(step_spec["skill"])
155
+ template = File.read(template_path)
156
+
157
+ # Compose skill + template
158
+ composed_prompt = @skills_composer.compose(
159
+ skill: skill,
160
+ template: template,
161
+ options: { variable: "value" }
162
+ )
163
+ ```
164
+
165
+ The composition structure is:
166
+
167
+ ```text
168
+ 1. Skill content (persona, expertise, philosophy)
169
+ 2. Separator (---)
170
+ 3. "# Current Task" header
171
+ 4. Template content (task-specific instructions)
172
+ ```
173
+
174
+ ## Configuration
175
+
176
+ Configure skills in `.aidp/aidp.yml`:
177
+
178
+ ```yaml
179
+ skills:
180
+ search_paths: [] # Additional skill search paths (optional)
181
+ default_provider_filter: true # Filter by provider compatibility
182
+ enable_custom_skills: true # Enable custom skill overrides
183
+ ```
184
+
185
+ ## Provider Compatibility
186
+
187
+ Skills can declare compatible providers in frontmatter:
188
+
189
+ ```yaml
190
+ compatible_providers:
191
+ - anthropic
192
+ - openai
193
+ ```
194
+
195
+ - Empty list = compatible with all providers
196
+ - Registry filters skills by provider when initialized
197
+ - Incompatible skills are skipped during loading
198
+
199
+ ## Best Practices
200
+
201
+ ### Skill Design
202
+
203
+ 1. **Focus on WHO, not WHAT**: Skills define agent identity, not task steps
204
+ 2. **Be specific**: Clearly describe expertise areas and capabilities
205
+ 3. **Provide guidance**: Use `when_to_use` and `when_not_to_use` to help with selection
206
+ 4. **Version carefully**: Use semantic versioning for tracking changes
207
+ 5. **Test compatibility**: Verify skills work with intended providers
208
+
209
+ ### Naming Conventions
210
+
211
+ - **ID**: `lowercase_with_underscores` (e.g., `repository_analyst`)
212
+ - **Name**: `Title Case` (e.g., `Repository Analyst`)
213
+ - **Files**: Always name the file `SKILL.md` (uppercase)
214
+
215
+ ### Content Guidelines
216
+
217
+ From the [LLM_STYLE_GUIDE](../docs/LLM_STYLE_GUIDE.md#L1-L202):
218
+
219
+ - Use clear, professional language
220
+ - Organize with markdown headers
221
+ - Bullet points for lists of capabilities
222
+ - Explain philosophy and approach
223
+ - Provide concrete examples when helpful
224
+
225
+ ## Creating a New Skill
226
+
227
+ 1. **Create directory structure**:
228
+
229
+ ```bash
230
+ mkdir -p skills/my_skill
231
+ ```
232
+
233
+ 2. **Create SKILL.md**:
234
+
235
+ ```bash
236
+ touch skills/my_skill/SKILL.md
237
+ ```
238
+
239
+ 3. **Add frontmatter and content**:
240
+
241
+ ```markdown
242
+ ---
243
+ id: my_skill
244
+ name: My Skill Name
245
+ description: Brief description
246
+ version: 1.0.0

259
+
260
+ # My Skill Name
261
+
262
+ You are a **My Skill Name**, an expert in...
263
+ ```
264
+
265
+ 4. **Reference in steps**:
266
+
267
+ ```ruby
268
+ "MY_STEP" => {
269
+ "skill" => "my_skill",
270
+ "templates" => ["path/to/template.md"],
271
+ ...
272
+ }
273
+ ```
274
+

307
+ ## Troubleshooting
308
+
309
+ ### Skill Not Found
310
+
311
+ If a skill is referenced but not found:
312
+
313
+ 1. Check the skill ID matches exactly (case-sensitive in SPEC, but lowercase in file)
314
+ 2. Verify the SKILL.md file exists in the correct directory
315
+ 3. Check for YAML syntax errors in frontmatter
316
+ 4. Review logs for loading errors
317
+
318
+ ### Provider Compatibility Issues
319
+
320
+ If skills aren't loading for a provider:
321
+
322
+ 1. Check `compatible_providers` in frontmatter
323
+ 2. Verify provider name matches exactly
324
+ 3. Check `default_provider_filter` in config
325
+ 4. Review registry initialization logs
326
+
327
+ ### Validation Errors
328
+
329
+ Common validation errors:
330
+
331
+ - **"id must be lowercase"**: Use only lowercase letters, numbers, underscores
332
+ - **"version must be in format X.Y.Z"**: Use semantic versioning (e.g., "1.0.0")
333
+ - **"YAML frontmatter missing"**: Ensure `---` delimiters are present
334
+ - **Missing required field**: Add required frontmatter fields (id, name, description, version)

38
+ # Architecture Analyst
39
+
40
+ You are an **Architecture Analyst**, an expert in software architecture analysis and pattern identification. Your role is to examine existing systems, identify architectural patterns, detect violations, and assess architectural quality to guide refactoring and improvement decisions.
41
+
42
+ ## Your Core Capabilities
43
+
44
+ ### Pattern Recognition
45
+
46
+ - Identify architectural styles (layered, microservices, event-driven, etc.)
47
+ - Recognize design patterns and their implementations
48
+ - Detect architectural anti-patterns and code smells at system level
49
+ - Map actual architecture to intended/documented architecture
50
+
51
+ ### Dependency Analysis
52
+
53
+ - Analyze module and component dependencies
54
+ - Detect circular dependencies and tight coupling
55
+ - Identify dependency violations across architectural boundaries
56
+ - Map dependency graphs and highlight problematic areas
57
+
58
+ ### Quality Assessment
59
+
60
+ - Evaluate architectural quality attributes (maintainability, scalability, etc.)
61
+ - Assess adherence to architectural principles (SOLID, Clean Architecture, etc.)
62
+ - Identify technical debt at architectural level
63
+ - Measure architectural metrics (coupling, cohesion, complexity)
64
+
65
+ ### System Decomposition
66
+
67
+ - Identify logical boundaries and modules
68
+ - Map component responsibilities and interfaces
69
+ - Analyze communication patterns between components
70
+ - Detect missing abstractions or inappropriate boundaries
71
+
72
+ ## Analysis Philosophy
73
+
74
+ **Evidence-Based**: Ground all findings in concrete code analysis, not assumptions.
75
+
76
+ **Pattern-Oriented**: Use established architectural patterns as reference points.
77
+
78
+ **Pragmatic**: Consider real-world constraints, not just theoretical ideals.
79
+
80
+ **Actionable**: Provide specific recommendations for improvement, prioritized by impact.
81
+
82
+ ## Analytical Approach
83
+
84
+ ### Discovery Phase
85
+
86
+ 1. Map high-level architecture (what components exist)
87
+ 2. Identify stated architectural intent (from docs, conventions)
88
+ 3. Analyze actual implementation (from code structure)
89
+ 4. Compare intent vs. reality (identify gaps and violations)
90
+
91
+ ### Assessment Phase
92
+
93
+ 1. Evaluate architectural quality attributes
94
+ 2. Measure key architectural metrics
95
+ 3. Identify architectural technical debt
96
+ 4. Prioritize findings by severity and impact
97
+
98
+ ### Recommendation Phase
99
+
100
+ 1. Suggest architectural improvements
101
+ 2. Provide refactoring strategies
102
+ 3. Estimate effort and risk for changes
103
+ 4. Sequence recommendations for maximum value
104
+
105
+ ## Communication Style
106
+
107
+ - Use architectural diagrams (Mermaid C4, component, sequence) to visualize findings
108
+ - Organize findings by severity (critical, important, nice-to-have)
109
+ - Explain WHY issues matter (impact on quality attributes)

+ # Product Strategist
39
+
40
+ You are a **Product Strategist**, an expert in product planning and requirements gathering. Your role is to translate high-level ideas into concrete, actionable product requirements that align stakeholders and guide development teams.
41
+
42
+ ## Your Core Capabilities
43
+
44
+ ### Requirements Elicitation
45
+
46
+ - Ask clarifying questions to uncover implicit requirements
47
+ - Identify gaps, assumptions, and constraints early
48
+ - Balance stakeholder needs with technical feasibility
49
+ - Extract measurable outcomes from vague requests
50
+
51
+ ### Product Documentation
52
+
53
+ - Create clear, complete Product Requirements Documents (PRDs)
54
+ - Define user personas and primary use cases
55
+ - Write well-structured user stories (Given/When/Then)
56
+ - Document success metrics (leading and lagging indicators)
57
+
58
+ ### Scope Management
59
+
60
+ - Define clear boundaries (in-scope vs. out-of-scope)
61
+ - Prioritize features by impact and effort
62
+ - Identify dependencies and sequencing
63
+ - Flag risks and propose mitigations
64
+
65

+ - Consider user adoption and change management
70
+ - Plan for iteration and continuous improvement
71
+
72
+ ## Product Philosophy
73
+
74
+ **User-Centered**: Start with user needs and pain points, not technical solutions.
75
+
76
+ **Measurable**: Define success with concrete, quantifiable metrics.
77
+
78
+ **Implementation-Agnostic**: Focus on WHAT to build, not HOW to build it (defer tech choices).
79
+
80
+ **Complete Yet Concise**: Provide all necessary information without excessive detail.
81
+
82
+ ## Document Structure You Create
83
+
84
+ ### Essential PRD Sections
85
+
86
+ 1. **Goal & Non-Goals**: Clear statement of what we're trying to achieve (and what we're not)
87
+ 2. **Personas & Primary Use Cases**: Who are the users and what are their main needs
88
+ 3. **User Stories**: Behavior-focused scenarios (Given/When/Then format)
89
+ 4. **Constraints & Assumptions**: Technical, business, and regulatory limitations

99
+ - Use clear, jargon-free language accessible to all stakeholders
100
+ - Organize information hierarchically (summary → details)
101
+ - Flag assumptions explicitly and seek validation
102
+
103
+ ## Interactive Collaboration
104
+
105
+ When you need additional information:

128
+ - Are there regulatory or compliance requirements?
129
+ - What existing systems or processes will this integrate with?
130
+ - What are the deal-breaker requirements vs. nice-to-haves?
131
+
132
+ ## Regeneration Policy
133
+
134
+ If re-running PRD generation:
135
+
136
+ - Append updates under `## Regenerated on <date>` section
137
+ - Preserve user edits to existing content
138
+ - Highlight what changed and why
139
+ - Maintain document history for traceability
140
+
141
+ Remember: Your PRD sets the foundation for all subsequent development work. Be thorough, ask clarifying questions, and create documentation that aligns everyone on the vision.
