## Skills

- api-test: Test API endpoints in a workspace using OpenAPI specs, auth tokens from Infisical, and self-healing debugging for common failures
- app-provision: Provision a new app across Cloudflare, Infisical, Neon, Fly, Sentry, Grafana, Upstash and the rest, decide which vendors it needs, create what's scriptable, and print the manual checklist
- app-scaffold: Stand up a NEW app repo from project-template, config, catalog, design pack, generated DESIGN.md, CI wiring: and hand off to app-provision for vendors. Use when the user says "new app", "scaffold an app", "create the <name> repo", "bootstrap <name>", or asks what a new app needs. Covers the repo…
- app-store: App Store Connect as code for any bokendell mobile app. Use when touching store metadata, screenshots, TestFlight, review submission or a mobile release; it names the folder, scripts, secrets and authentication every app shares, and defers the command detail to the installed `asc` binary's own help.
- ci-local: Run every CI check on your own machine before pushing, so GitHub Actions minutes are spent confirming rather than discovering. Use when a PR is about to be opened, when CI just failed on something a local run would have caught, or when deciding which workflows should be allowed to run on a draft PR.
- close-out: Retrospective on a finished piece of work, where the loop deviated from its skills, what was done by hand that no skill covers, which playbook command lied, emitted as improvement signals per `improve`. Use after a merge, or when a session ends with something worth counting. Recommends only; appl…
- cloud-agent: How to run a bokendell app repo inside a cloud VM, a Cursor Cloud Agent or a Claude Code cloud session (vs `swarm workspace dev` on a laptop). Use when starting servers/apps (API, admin, web, mobile/Metro, Inngest, workers, MCP servers), deciding which services a task needs, wiring Infisical/swarm…
- commit-change: Run the local gate, the lefthook / CI-equivalent checks via `dev:ci-local` and the repo's verification skill, then stage deliberately and commit. Only runs when the user asks to commit; never auto-invoked by another stage. Refuses to commit on a red gate.
- consult-knowledge: Surface what already governs a piece of work before designing it, the repo's docs map, decision records, product journeys, and the memories that apply. Use at plan time (there is no file yet for auto-loading to anchor on) and at review time to load the rubric. Reads only.
- context-patterns: Auto-loads the correct pattern docs based on what's being worked on. Triggers when working on golf, portfolio, or hive apps, during planning, development, testing, or code review. Ensures DDD, API, frontend, mobile, and testing patterns are always in context. Use proactively whenever implementing,…
- copy: Voice and copy for every word a user reads. Use when writing or reviewing UI strings, empty and error states, buttons, toasts, push notifications, emails, onboarding, marketing headlines, or App Store text. Also use when the user says copy sounds "generic", "AI-written", "off-brand", "slop", or ask…
- design-comments: Inbox + address workflow for design annotations. Lists every `open` annotation across an app's flows (or filters to one flow), then walks through each, reading the comment + the source file + the flow's decisions.md, making the fix, and posting a reply that marks the annotation `addressed`. Trigge…
