[<h3>**/lightweight-implementation-analysis-protocol**</h3>This skill should be used when fixing bugs, implementing features, debugging issues, or making code changes. Ensures understanding of code flow before implementation by: (1) Tracing execution path with specific file:line references, (2) Creating lightweight text diagrams showing class.method() flows, (3) Verifying understanding with user. Prevents wasted effort from assumptions or guessing. Triggers when users request: bug fixes, feature implementations, refactoring, TDD cycles, debugging, code analysis. /lightweight-implementation-analysis-protocol](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/lightweight-implementation-analysis-protocol)

Updated 8 months ago

[<h3>**/lightweight-task-workflow**</h3>FOLLOW THE STATE MACHINE IN SKILL.MD. When user says 'continue': (1) FIRST: Run pwd, (2) Announce STATE: CHECK\_STATUS, (3) Read .claude/session.md to check Status field, (4) Route based on Status. NEVER auto-advance tasks. NEVER use TodoWrite. NEVER create git commits. /lightweight-task-workflow](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/lightweight-task-workflow)

Updated 8 months ago

[<h3>**/observability-first-debugging**</h3>Systematic debugging methodology that eliminates guessing and speculation. Add instrumentation to gather specific data that fully explains the problem. Evidence before hypothesis. Observation before solution. Triggers on: debugging, error investigation, 'why is this failing', unexpected behavior, test failures, non-zero exit codes, stack traces. /observability-first-debugging](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/observability-first-debugging)

Updated 8 months ago

[<h3>**/questions-are-not-instructions**</h3>Engage with what the user said before taking action. Triggers on: questions ('?'), feedback ('this is wrong', 'that doesn't look right', 'there are issues'), challenges ('why did you', 'have you considered'), criticism ('this isn't working', 'I don't like'), observations ('I notice', 'it seems like'), naming a skill or concept. STOP and respond to the user's actual words before doing anything. /questions-are-not-instructions](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/questions-are-not-instructions)

Updated 8 months ago

[<h3>**/software-design-principles**</h3>Object-oriented design principles including object calisthenics, dependency inversion, fail-fast error handling, feature envy detection, and intention-revealing naming. Triggers on: writing new classes or functions, refactoring, code review, 'clean up', method longer than 10 lines, feature envy, primitive obsession, deep nesting. /software-design-principles](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/software-design-principles)

[<h3>**/independent-research**</h3>Use when about to ask the user a factual question, propose a solution, diagnose an error, or choose between approaches. Triggers on: 'Do you have X installed?', 'What version?', 'Is X configured?', 'We should...', 'The fix is...', 'Options: 1...', 'Based on my understanding...', 'I believe X supports...'. Before deciding anything, spin up parallel subagents to WebSearch for current docs, community solutions, framework best practices, and GitHub issues. Your memory is stale — verify everything. /independent-research](https://skilld.dev/gh/ntcoding/claude-skillz/independent-research)
