    brief-to-tasks

    Break a design brief into an ordered checklist of independently buildable tasks using vertical slices. Saves as a markdown checklist. Use when user wants to break down work, create tasks from a brief, plan implementation order, or mentions "tasks" or "breakdown".

  • LesaniSkill

    writing-beats

    Shape an article as a journey of beats, choose-your-own-adventure style. The user picks a starting beat from the raw material, you write only that beat, then offer options for where to pivot next, beat by beat, until the article reaches a natural end. Use when the user has raw material and wants to assemble it as a narrative rather than an argument.

    writing-shape

    Take a markdown file of raw material and shape it into an article through a conversational session — drafting candidate openings, growing the piece paragraph by paragraph, arguing about format (lists, tables, callouts, quotes) at each step. Use when the user has a pile of notes, fragments, or a rough draft and wants help turning it into something publishable.

    setup-ts-deep-modules

    Wire dependency-cruiser into a TypeScript repo so each package is a deep module — implementation hidden in subfolders, reachable only through its entry-point files. User-invoked.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 177 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 4

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Follow .cursor/skills/grilling/SKILL.md (rounds, frontier, facts vs decisions).

    line 10
  2. Distinctive:

    Do not implement, refactor, or "just start building."

    line 11
  3. Distinctive:

    Do not supply a solution pitch unless they ask after the grill.

    line 12
  4. Distinctive:

    Stop when the frontier is empty, they say stop, or remaining uncertainty is named.

    line 14
  5. Distinctive:

    If they pointed at a doc or ADR, grill *that claim set*.

    line 16

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 177 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Grill me

The user is the subject. You are the interviewer only.

  1. Follow .cursor/skills/grilling/SKILL.md (rounds, frontier, facts vs decisions).
  2. Do not implement, refactor, or "just start building."
  3. Do not supply a solution pitch unless they ask after the grill.
  4. Attack assumptions and contradictions with CURRENT / accepted ADRs, not the person.
  5. Stop when the frontier is empty, they say stop, or remaining uncertainty is named.

If they pointed at a doc or ADR, grill that claim set. If they pointed at an idea in chat, grill the idea — then offer to record survivors as an ADR.
