State-of-the-art observability and reliability engineering (2026). Use when instrumenting code (structured logging, metrics, distributed tracing with OpenTelemetry, SLOs, alerting, health endpoints) or auditing an existing codebase's observability posture (can on-call answer "why is this request slow?" and "what broke…
State-of-the-art performance engineering for building fast systems and auditing existing code for bottlenecks. Use when the task involves performance, optimization, latency, profiling, slow code, memory usage, caching, or throughput — designing latency budgets, fixing N+1 and accidental-quadratic patterns, tuning…
State-of-the-art privacy and compliance engineering guidance for building privacy-respecting systems and auditing existing code for privacy/compliance gaps. Use when work involves privacy, GDPR, PII, personal data, consent, data retention, deletion, DSAR (data subject access requests), SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI…
State-of-the-art sandboxing and isolation engineering (2026). Use when designing isolation for untrusted code, untrusted input parsing, multi-tenant workloads, or AI/agent execution — and when auditing existing systems for isolation gaps. Covers least privilege, defense in depth, isolation boundary selection…
State-of-the-art secrets management for building and auditing software. Use whenever a task involves creating, storing, injecting, rotating, or scanning for credentials — or reviewing code/infrastructure for secret leaks and misuse. BUILD mode: implementing secrets handling; AUDIT mode: sweeping a repo for leaked…
State-of-the-art security & compliance engineering (2026) for the cybersecurity control frameworks and product-security regulations that drive architecture, code, and CI gates — not the organizational policy binder. Use when work must satisfy or be audited against NIST CSF 2.0, SP 800-53, SP 800-171 / CMMC, the Secure…
State-of-the-art shell scripting (bash-focused, defensive) for writing and auditing shell scripts, CI scripts, init/deploy scripts, container entrypoints, and Makefile recipes. Use when the task involves creating, modifying, reviewing, or hardening any shell code — trigger keywords: bash, shell script, sh, zsh…
State-of-the-art software testing strategy and practice (2026) for designing test strategy, writing unit/integration/e2e tests, or auditing test suites. Covers suite shape (pyramid/trophy/honeycomb), test design quality (behavior-first, AAA, determinism, smells), test doubles (mocks/fakes/stubs), test data (builders…
State-of-the-art threat modeling for both designing new systems and auditing existing ones. Use when designing a feature, service, integration, or architecture that touches untrusted input, new trust boundaries, sensitive data, or third-party dependencies (BUILD mode), and when reviewing, auditing, or pen-test-scoping…
State-of-the-art UX writing and product-copy guidance (2026) covering voice and tone systems, plain language (ISO 24495-1), microcopy (buttons, labels, empty states, onboarding, notifications), error and feedback message craft, and the accessibility and localization of interface language (WCAG 2.2 language criteria…
State-of-the-art engineering rules (2026) for the JavaScript SSR meta-frameworks: React 19 + Next.js (App Router, React Server Components, Server Actions) and Vue 3 + Nuxt 4 (Nitro server routes, composables) — plus the cross-cutting concerns of server rendering: hydration correctness, SSR state serialization, the…
Master router for the SOTA engineering skills library. Use this skill whenever the user asks to build, design, implement, refactor, harden, optimize, review, or audit an application, service, or codebase and the request spans more than one domain — or when you are unsure which specific sota- skill applies. Also use…
