Summary
AI summarySkills overhaul adds Red Flags sections, concrete examples, and portability improvements.
Full changelog
Skills overhaul
All 9 bundled skills improved across 12 iterations:
- Sharper descriptions — every skill now leads with concrete trigger phrases so the model selects the right one
- Cross-references — debug→tdd, tdd→refactor, plan↔tasks wired up at decision points
- Red Flags sections — added to debug, tdd, verify, refactor, review so agents know when to stop and ask
- Concrete examples — review FINDINGS format, debug observation template, verify per-tool output patterns
- File-writing guidance — debug and tdd now warn against echo+\n and sed for multi-line files
- Portability — harness exports MI_PATH; delegate skill uses it instead of hardcoded paths
- plan — explicit /tmp/mi-/plan.md path with copy-pasteable command
- tasks — explicit work loop (pick → mark in-progress → do → mark done); slug collision guidance
- delegate — log-reading strategies (tail, grep, wc); blocked-subagent handling in review
Fixes
- Fixed test suite deleting bundled skills/ directory after test runs
- Harness now sets MI_PATH env var so subagents can spawn further subagents
- .gitignore added; .npmignore tightened
