Brand Guidelines DocWrites a brand guidelines document - personality traits with is/is-not definitions, voice principles, a tone-by-context matrix, writing mechanics, a say-this-not-that word list, and visual usage rules - all made concrete with do/don't examples. Use when someone asks "write our brand guidelines", "document our voice and tone", "make a style guide the whole team can follow", or teams keep producing off-brand copy and design. Do NOT use for inventing the brand name itself - use brand-naming instead; for organizing messaging by audience and claim, use messaging-hierarchy.Writing
Color Palette BuilderBuilds an accessible brand color palette - one anchor color, role assignments, 9-step tonal scales, 60-30-10 distribution, and documented usage rules - ready for a developer to implement without guessing. Use when someone asks "pick our brand colors", "build a color system for our app", "what shade should our buttons be", or is defining the color layer of a design system. Do NOT use for auditing or fixing contrast failures and color-blindness issues in an existing product - use color-accessibility instead; for assembling the full brand book around the palette, use brand-guidelines.Design
Typography SystemChooses and pairs typefaces and builds a modular type scale - ratio, named roles, line heights, measure limits, and responsive values - as a complete design-system type layer. Use when someone asks "what fonts should we use", "build our type scale", "why does our typography feel inconsistent", or is establishing the typographic voice for a brand or product. Do NOT use for animated or motion typography - use kinetic-typography instead; for page-level emphasis, spacing, and layout decisions, use visual-hierarchy; for assembling the full brand book, use brand-guidelines.Design
Git Commit WriterGenerates conventional commit messages from diffs with scope, breaking change flags, and issue refs.Coding
Brand NamingGenerates twenty-plus brand or product name candidates across five naming archetypes, scores them against weighted criteria without averaging, and runs linguistic and memorability safety checks. Use when someone asks "help me name my startup", "is this a good product name", "generate name ideas for this feature", or is auditing an existing name for distinctiveness, strategic fit, and risk. Not a substitute for professional trademark clearance. Do NOT use for crafting the positioning the name must express - use positioning-statement instead; for briefing the visual identity around a chosen name, use logo-brief-writer.Design
Karpathy Behavioral RulesFour hard rules that stop Claude from silently over-engineering, making wrong assumptions, or touching code it was never supposed to.Coding
Changelog GeneratorGenerate or update a repository CHANGELOG.md in Keep a Changelog format from git history - grouping commits since the last tag into Added/Changed/Deprecated/Removed/Fixed/Security, rewriting them as user-facing entries, and recommending the semantic version bump. Use when someone asks "generate a changelog from the git log", "update CHANGELOG.md for this release", "what version bump does this release need", or "turn these commits into release notes". Do NOT use for writing benefit-first product announcement changelogs for end users from release notes - use changelog-writer instead; this skill produces the versioned CHANGELOG.md file that lives in the repo.Coding
TDD ExpertDrive development with strict Red-Green-Refactor discipline - write one failing test, write the minimum code to pass it, refactor on green - including test-list planning and a worked kata cycle. Use when someone asks "write this test-first", "do TDD on this feature", "help me practice red-green-refactor", "write a failing test for this bug", or wants tests to drive a new module's design. Do NOT use for adding tests to existing untested legacy code before a refactor - use characterization-test-writer instead - or for designing shared fixtures and factories - use test-data-builder instead.Coding
