+ # Code Reviewer Prompt Template
2
+
3
+ Use this template when dispatching a code reviewer subagent.
4
+
5
+ **Purpose:** Review completed work against requirements and code quality standards before it cascades into more work.
6
+
7
+ ```
8
+ Subagent (general-purpose):
9
+ description: "Review code changes"
10
+ prompt: |
11
+ You are a Senior Code Reviewer with expertise in software architecture,
12
+ design patterns, and best practices. Your job is to review completed work
13
+ against its plan or requirements and identify issues before they cascade.
14
+
15
+ ## What Was Implemented
16
+
17
+ [DESCRIPTION]
18
+
19
+ ## Requirements / Plan
20
+
21
+ [PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS]
22
+
23
+ ## Git Range to Review
24
+
25
+ **Base:** [BASE_SHA]
26
+ **Head:** [HEAD_SHA]
27
+
28
+ ```bash
29
+ git diff --stat [BASE_SHA]..[HEAD_SHA]
30
+ git diff [BASE_SHA]..[HEAD_SHA]
31
+ ```
32
+
33
+ ## Read-Only Review
34
+
35
+ Your review is read-only on this checkout. Do not mutate the working tree, the index, HEAD, or branch state in any way. Use tools like `git show`, `git diff`, and `git log` to inspect history. If you need a working copy of a different revision, check it out into a separate temporary directory (e.g. `git worktree add /tmp/review-[SHA] [SHA]`) — never move HEAD on this checkout.
36
+
37
+ ## What to Check
38
+
39
+ **Plan alignment:**
40
+ - Does the implementation match the plan / requirements?
41
+ - Are deviations justified improvements, or problematic departures?
42
+ - Is all planned functionality present?
43
+
44
+ **Code quality:**
45
+ - Clean separation of concerns?
46
+ - Proper error handling?
47
+ - Type safety where applicable?
48
+ - DRY without premature abstraction?
49
+ - Edge cases handled?
50
+
51
+ **Architecture:**
52
+ - Sound design decisions?
53
+ - Reasonable scalability and performance?
54
+ - Security concerns?
55
+ - Integrates cleanly with surrounding code?
56
+
57
+ **Testing:**
58
+ - Tests verify real behavior, not mocks?
59
+ - Edge cases covered?
60
+ - Integration tests where they matter?
61
+ - All tests passing?
62
+
63
+ **Production readiness:**
64
+ - Migration strategy if schema changed?
65
+ - Backward compatibility considered?
66
+ - Documentation complete?
67
+ - No obvious bugs?
68
+
69
+ ## Calibration
70
+
71
+ Categorize issues by actual severity. Not everything is Critical.
72
+ Acknowledge what was done well before listing issues — accurate praise
73
+ helps the implementer trust the rest of the feedback.
74
+
75
+ If you find significant deviations from the plan, flag them specifically
76
+ so the implementer can confirm whether the deviation was intentional.
77
+ If you find issues with the plan itself rather than the implementation,
78
+ say so.
79
+
80
+ ## Output Format
81
+
82
+ ### Strengths
83
+ [What's well done? Be specific.]
84
+
85
+ ### Issues
86
+
87
+ #### Critical (Must Fix)
88
+ [Bugs, security issues, data loss risks, broken functionality]
89
+
90
+ #### Important (Should Fix)
91
+ [Architecture problems, missing features, poor error handling, test gaps]
92
+
93
+ #### Minor (Nice to Have)
94
+ [Code style, optimization opportunities, documentation polish]
95
+
96
+ For each issue:
97
+ - File:line reference
98
+ - What's wrong
99
+ - Why it matters
100
+ - How to fix (if not obvious)
101
+
102
+ ### Recommendations
103
+ [Improvements for code quality, architecture, or process]
104
+
105
+ ### Assessment
106
+
107
+ **Ready to merge?** [Yes | No | With fixes]
108
+
109
+ **Reasoning:** [1-2 sentence technical assessment]
110
+
111
+ ## Critical Rules
112
+
113
+ **DO:**
114
+ - Categorize by actual severity
115
+ - Be specific (file:line, not vague)
116
+ - Explain WHY each issue matters
117
+ - Acknowledge strengths
118
+ - Give a clear verdict
119
+
120
+ **DON'T:**
121
+ - Say "looks good" without checking
122
+ - Mark nitpicks as Critical
123
+ - Give feedback on code you didn't actually read
124
+ - Be vague ("improve error handling")
125
+ - Avoid giving a clear verdict
126
+ ```
127
+
128
+ **Placeholders:**
129
+ - `[DESCRIPTION]` — brief summary of what was built
130
+ - `[PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS]` — what it should do (plan file path, task text, or requirements)
131
+ - `[BASE_SHA]` — starting commit
132
+ - `[HEAD_SHA]` — ending commit
133
+
134
+ **Reviewer returns:** Strengths, Issues (Critical / Important / Minor), Recommendations, Assessment
135
+
136
+ ## Example Output
137
+
138
+ ```
139
+ ### Strengths
140
+ - Clean database schema with proper migrations (db.ts:15-42)
141
+ - Comprehensive test coverage (18 tests, all edge cases)
142
+ - Good error handling with fallbacks (summarizer.ts:85-92)
143
+
144
+ ### Issues
145
+
146
+ #### Important
147
+ 1. **Missing help text in CLI wrapper**
148
+ - File: index-conversations:1-31
149
+ - Issue: No --help flag, users won't discover --concurrency
150
+ - Fix: Add --help case with usage examples
151
+
152
+ 2. **Date validation missing**
153
+ - File: search.ts:25-27
154
+ - Issue: Invalid dates silently return no results
155
+ - Fix: Validate ISO format, throw error with example
156
+
157
+ #### Minor
158
+ 1. **Progress indicators**
159
+ - File: indexer.ts:130
160
+ - Issue: No "X of Y" counter for long operations
161
+ - Impact: Users don't know how long to wait
162
+
163
+ ### Recommendations
164
+ - Add progress reporting for user experience
165
+ - Consider config file for excluded projects (portability)
166
+
167
+ ### Assessment
168
+
169
+ **Ready to merge: With fixes**
170
+
171
+ **Reasoning:** Core implementation is solid with good architecture and tests. Important issues (help text, date validation) are easily fixed and don't affect core functionality.

6
+ # Scaffold Exercises
7
+
8
+ Create exercise directory structures that pass `pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint`, then commit with `git commit`.
9
+
10
+ ## Directory naming
11
+
12
+ - **Sections**: `XX-section-name/` inside `exercises/` (e.g., `01-retrieval-skill-building`)
13
+ - **Exercises**: `XX.YY-exercise-name/` inside a section (e.g., `01.03-retrieval-with-bm25`)
14
+ - Section number = `XX`, exercise number = `XX.YY`
15
+ - Names are dash-case (lowercase, hyphens)
16
+
17
+ ## Exercise variants
18
+
19
+ Each exercise needs at least one of these subfolders:
20
+
21
+ - `problem/` - student workspace with TODOs
22
+ - `solution/` - reference implementation
23
+ - `explainer/` - conceptual material, no TODOs
24
+
25
+ When stubbing, default to `explainer/` unless the plan specifies otherwise.
26
+
27
+ ## Required files
28
+
29
+ Each subfolder (`problem/`, `solution/`, `explainer/`) needs a `readme.md` that:
30
+
31
+ - Is **not empty** (must have real content, even a single title line works)
32
+ - Has no broken links
33
+
34
+ When stubbing, create a minimal readme with a title and a description:
35
+
36
+ ```md
37
+ # Exercise Title
38
+
39
+ Description here
40
+ ```
41
+
42
+ If the subfolder has code, it also needs a `main.ts` (>1 line). But for stubs, a readme-only exercise is fine.
43
+
44
+ ## Workflow
45
+
46
+ 1. **Parse the plan** - extract section names, exercise names, and variant types
47
+ 2. **Create directories** - `mkdir -p` for each path
48
+ 3. **Create stub readmes** - one `readme.md` per variant folder with a title
49
+ 4. **Run lint** - `pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint` to validate
50
+ 5. **Fix any errors** - iterate until lint passes
51
+
52
+ ## Lint rules summary
53
+
54
+ The linter (`pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint`) checks:
55
+
56
+ - Each exercise has subfolders (`problem/`, `solution/`, `explainer/`)
57
+ - At least one of `problem/`, `explainer/`, or `explainer.1/` exists
58
+ - `readme.md` exists and is non-empty in the primary subfolder
59
+ - No `.gitkeep` files
60
+ - No `speaker-notes.md` files
61
+ - No broken links in readmes
62
+ - No `pnpm run exercise` commands in readmes
63
+ - `main.ts` required per subfolder unless it's readme-only
64
+
65
+ ## Moving/renaming exercises

+
7
+ # Setup Matt Pocock's Skills
8
+
9
+ Scaffold the per-repo configuration that the engineering skills assume:
10
+
11
+ - **Issue tracker** — where issues live (GitHub by default; local markdown is also supported out of the box)
12
+ - **Triage labels** — the strings used for the five canonical triage roles
13
+ - **Domain docs** — where `CONTEXT.md` and ADRs live, and the consumer rules for reading them
14
+
15
+ This is a prompt-driven skill, not a deterministic script. Explore, present what you found, confirm with the user, then write.
16
+
17
+ ## Process
18
+
19
+ ### 1. Explore
20
+
21
+ Look at the current repo to understand its starting state. Read whatever exists; don't assume:
22
+
23
+ - `git remote -v` and `.git/config` — is this a GitHub repo? Which one?
24
+ - `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` at the repo root — does either exist? Is there already an `## Agent skills` section in either?
25
+ - `CONTEXT.md` and `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the repo root
26
+ - `docs/adr/` and any `src/*/docs/adr/` directories
27
+ - `docs/agents/` — does this skill's prior output already exist?
28
+ - `.scratch/` — sign that a local-markdown issue tracker convention is already in use
29
+
30
+ ### 2. Present findings and ask
31
+
32
+ Summarise what's present and what's missing. Then walk the user through the three decisions **one at a time** — present a section, get the user's answer, then move to the next. Don't dump all three at once.
33
+
34
+ Assume the user does not know what these terms mean. Each section starts with a short explainer (what it is, why these skills need it, what changes if they pick differently). Then show the choices and the default.
35
+
36
+ **Section A — Issue tracker.**
37
+
38
+ > Explainer: The "issue tracker" is where issues live for this repo. Skills like `to-issues`, `triage`, `to-prd`, and `qa` read from and write to it — they need to know whether to call `gh issue create`, write a markdown file under `.scratch/`, or follow some other workflow you describe. Pick the place you actually track work for this repo.
39
+
40
+ Default posture: these skills were designed for GitHub. If a `git remote` points at GitHub, propose that. If a `git remote` points at GitLab (`gitlab.com` or a self-hosted host), propose GitLab. Otherwise (or if the user prefers), offer:
41
+
42
+ - **GitHub** — issues live in the repo's GitHub Issues (uses the `gh` CLI)
43
+ - **GitLab** — issues live in the repo's GitLab Issues (uses the [`glab`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli) CLI)
44
+ - **Local markdown** — issues live as files under `.scratch/<feature>/` in this repo (good for solo projects or repos without a remote)
45
+ - **Other** (Jira, Linear, etc.) — ask the user to describe the workflow in one paragraph; the skill will record it as freeform prose
46
+
47
+ If — and only if — the user picked **GitHub** or **GitLab**, ask one follow-up:
48
+
49
+ > Explainer: Open-source repos often receive feature requests as pull requests, not just issues — a PR is an issue with attached code. If you turn this on, `/triage` pulls *external* PRs into the same queue and runs them through the same labels and states as issues (collaborators' in-flight PRs are left alone). Leave it off if PRs aren't a request surface for you.
50
+
51
+ - **PRs as a request surface** — yes / no (default: no). Record the answer in `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`. For local-markdown and other trackers, skip this question — there are no PRs.
52
+
53
+ **Section B — Triage label vocabulary.**
54
+
55
+ > Explainer: When the `triage` skill processes an incoming issue, it moves it through a state machine — needs evaluation, waiting on reporter, ready for an AFK agent to pick up, ready for a human, or won't fix. To do that, it needs to apply labels (or the equivalent in your issue tracker) that match strings *you've actually configured*. If your repo already uses different label names (e.g. `bug:triage` instead of `needs-triage`), map them here so the skill applies the right ones instead of creating duplicates.
56
+
57
+ The five canonical roles:
58
+
59
+ - `needs-triage` — maintainer needs to evaluate
60
+ - `needs-info` — waiting on reporter
61
+ - `ready-for-agent` — fully specified, AFK-ready (an agent can pick it up with no human context)
62
+ - `ready-for-human` — needs human implementation
63
+ - `wontfix` — will not be actioned
64
+
65
+ Default: each role's string equals its name. Ask the user if they want to override any. If their issue tracker has no existing labels, the defaults are fine.
66
+
67
+ **Section C — Domain docs.**
68
+
69
+ > Explainer: Some skills (`improve-codebase-architecture`, `diagnosing-bugs`, `tdd`) read a `CONTEXT.md` file to learn the project's domain language, and `docs/adr/` for past architectural decisions. They need to know whether the repo has one global context or multiple (e.g. a monorepo with separate frontend/backend contexts) so they look in the right place.
70
+
71
+ Confirm the layout:
72
+
73
+ - **Single-context** — one `CONTEXT.md` + `docs/adr/` at the repo root. Most repos are this.
74
+ - **Multi-context** — `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the root pointing to per-context `CONTEXT.md` files (typically a monorepo).
75
+
76
+ ### 3. Confirm and edit
77
+
78
+ Show the user a draft of:
79
+
80
+ - The `## Agent skills` block to add to whichever of `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md` is being edited (see step 4 for selection rules)
81
+ - The contents of `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`, `docs/agents/triage-labels.md`, `docs/agents/domain.md`
82
+
83
+ Let them edit before writing.
84
+
85
+ ### 4. Write
86
+
87
+ **Pick the file to edit:**
88
+
89
+ - If `CLAUDE.md` exists, edit it.
90
+ - Else if `AGENTS.md` exists, edit it.
91
+ - If neither exists, ask the user which one to create — don't pick for them.
92
+
93
+ Never create `AGENTS.md` when `CLAUDE.md` already exists (or vice versa) — always edit the one that's already there.
94
+
95
+ If an `## Agent skills` block already exists in the chosen file, update its contents in-place rather than appending a duplicate. Don't overwrite user edits to the surrounding sections.
96
+
97
+ The block:
98
+
99
+ ```markdown
100
+ ## Agent skills
101
+
102
+ ### Issue tracker
103
+
104
+ [one-line summary of where issues are tracked, plus whether external PRs are a triage surface]. See `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md`.
105
+
106
+ ### Triage labels
107
+
108
+ [one-line summary of the label vocabulary]. See `docs/agents/triage-labels.md`.
109

110
+ ### Domain docs
111
+
112
+ [one-line summary of layout — "single-context" or "multi-context"]. See `docs/agents/domain.md`.
113
+ ```
114
+
115
+ Then write the three docs files using the seed templates in this skill folder as a starting point:
116
+
117
+ - [issue-tracker-github.md](./issue-tracker-github.md) — GitHub issue tracker
118
+ - [issue-tracker-gitlab.md](./issue-tracker-gitlab.md) — GitLab issue tracker
119
+ - [issue-tracker-local.md](./issue-tracker-local.md) — local-markdown issue tracker
120
+ - [triage-labels.md](./triage-labels.md) — label mapping
121
+ - [domain.md](./domain.md) — domain doc consumer rules + layout
122
+
123
+ For "other" issue trackers, write `docs/agents/issue-tracker.md` from scratch using the user's description.
124
+
125
+ ### 5. Done
126
+
127
+ Tell the user the setup is complete and which engineering skills will now read from these files. Mention they can edit `docs/agents/*.md` directly later — re-running this skill is only necessary if they want to switch issue trackers or restart from scratch.

+ # Domain Docs
2
+
3
+ How the engineering skills should consume this repo's domain documentation when exploring the codebase.
4
+
5
+ ## Before exploring, read these
6
+
7
+ - **`CONTEXT.md`** at the repo root, or
8
+ - **`CONTEXT-MAP.md`** at the repo root if it exists — it points at one `CONTEXT.md` per context. Read each one relevant to the topic.
9
+ - **`docs/adr/`** — read ADRs that touch the area you're about to work in. In multi-context repos, also check `src/<context>/docs/adr/` for context-scoped decisions.
10
+
11
+ If any of these files don't exist, **proceed silently**. Don't flag their absence; don't suggest creating them upfront. The `/domain-modeling` skill (reached via `/grill-with-docs` and `/improve-codebase-architecture`) creates them lazily when terms or decisions actually get resolved.
12
+
13
+ ## File structure
14
+
15
+ Single-context repo (most repos):
16
+
17
+ ```
18
+ /
19
+ ├── CONTEXT.md
20
+ ├── docs/adr/
21
+ │ ├── 0001-event-sourced-orders.md
22
+ │ └── 0002-postgres-for-write-model.md
23
+ └── src/
24
+ ```
25

27
+
28
+ ```

+ │ └── docs/adr/ ← context-specific decisions
36
+ └── billing/
37
+ ├── CONTEXT.md
38
+ └── docs/adr/
39
+ ```
40
+
41
+ ## Use the glossary's vocabulary
42
+
43
+ When your output names a domain concept (in an issue title, a refactor proposal, a hypothesis, a test name), use the term as defined in `CONTEXT.md`. Don't drift to synonyms the glossary explicitly avoids.
44
+
45
+ If the concept you need isn't in the glossary yet, that's a signal — either you're inventing language the project doesn't use (reconsider) or there's a real gap (note it for `/domain-modeling`).
46
+
47
+ ## Flag ADR conflicts
48
+
49
+ If your output contradicts an existing ADR, surface it explicitly rather than silently overriding:

23
+ - **List external PRs for triage**: `gh pr list --state open --json number,title,body,labels,author,authorAssociation,comments` then keep only `authorAssociation` of `CONTRIBUTOR`, `FIRST_TIME_CONTRIBUTOR`, or `NONE` (drop `OWNER`/`MEMBER`/`COLLABORATOR`).

5

6

7
+ - **Create an issue**: `glab issue create --title "..." --description "..."`. Use a heredoc for multi-line descriptions. Pass `--description -` to open an editor.

12

3
+ description: Set up Husky pre-commit hooks with lint-staged (Prettier), type checking, and tests in the current repo. Use when user wants to add pre-commit hooks, set up Husky, configure lint-staged, or add commit-time formatting/typechecking/testing.
4

5
+
6
+ # Setup Pre-Commit Hooks
7
+
8
+ ## What This Sets Up
9
+
10
+ - **Husky** pre-commit hook
11
+ - **lint-staged** running Prettier on all staged files
12
+ - **Prettier** config (if missing)
13
+ - **typecheck** and **test** scripts in the pre-commit hook
14
+
15
+ ## Steps
16
+
17
+ ### 1. Detect package manager
18
+
19
+ Check for `package-lock.json` (npm), `pnpm-lock.yaml` (pnpm), `yarn.lock` (yarn), `bun.lockb` (bun). Use whichever is present. Default to npm if unclear.
20
+
21
+ ### 2. Install dependencies
22
+
23
+ Install as devDependencies:
24
+
25
+ ```
26
+ husky lint-staged prettier
27
+ ```
28
+
29
+ ### 3. Initialize Husky
30
+
31
+ ```bash
32
+ npx husky init
33
+ ```
34
+
35
+ This creates `.husky/` dir and adds `prepare: "husky"` to package.json.
36
+
37
+ ### 4. Create `.husky/pre-commit`
38
+
39
+ Write this file (no shebang needed for Husky v9+):
40
+
41
+ ```
42
+ npx lint-staged
43
+ npm run typecheck
44
+ npm run test
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ **Adapt**: Replace `npm` with detected package manager. If repo has no `typecheck` or `test` script in package.json, omit those lines and tell the user.
48
+
49
+ ### 5. Create `.lintstagedrc`
50
+
51
+ ```json
52
+ {
53
+ "*": "prettier --ignore-unknown --write"
54
+ }
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ ### 6. Create `.prettierrc` (if missing)
58
+
59
+ Only create if no Prettier config exists. Use these defaults:
60
+
61
+ ```json
62
+ {
63
+ "useTabs": false,
64
+ "tabWidth": 2,
65
+ "printWidth": 80,
66
+ "singleQuote": false,
67
+ "trailingComma": "es5",
68
+ "semi": true,
69
+ "arrowParens": "always"
70
+ }
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ ### 7. Verify
74
+
75
+ - [ ] `.husky/pre-commit` exists and is executable
76
+ - [ ] `.lintstagedrc` exists
77
+ - [ ] `prepare` script in package.json is `"husky"`
78
+ - [ ] `prettier` config exists
79
+ - [ ] Run `npx lint-staged` to verify it works
80
+
81
+ ### 8. Commit
82
+
83
+ Stage all changed/created files and commit with message: `Add pre-commit hooks (husky + lint-staged + prettier)`
84
+
85
+ This will run through the new pre-commit hooks — a good smoke test that everything works.
86
+
87
+ ## Notes
88
+
89
