Adversarial code review using cross-model approach. Spawns reviewers on the opposing model (Claude uses Codex, Codex uses Claude) to challenge work from distinct critical lenses. Produces a synthesized verdict with findings and lead judgment. Triggers: "adversarial review".
Structural code search via ast-grep — use when code shape and element relationships matter, not just text. E.g., "find async functions without error handling", "refactor foo(a, b) to foo({ a, b })". Use Grep for simple name lookups.
Read/write brain files (Obsidian vault at brain/). Use for any task that persists knowledge — reflection, planning, or direct edits. Triggers after debugging sessions, mistakes, corrections, architectural decisions, or any insight worth preserving across sessions. Use on 'add to brain', 'remember this', 'write a…
Run Codex CLI (exec, resume) for parallel work, delegating tasks to another model, or background code generation. Handles code analysis, refactoring, and automated editing. Includes Spark vs standard guidance. Triggers: "codex", "run codex", "use codex to".
Create conventional commit messages. Use when the user says "commit this", "save changes", "git commit", asks to commit code, write a commit message, or format git history. Follows conventional commits specification.
Systematic root-cause debugging methodology. Use for any technical problem — errors, failures, unexpected behavior, or when stuck. Triggers: "debug", "fix this", "what's wrong", "investigate".
Discover and install agent skills from the open ecosystem. Use IMMEDIATELY when the user asks "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill for X", "can you do X" for specialized capabilities, wants to extend agent functionality, mentions a domain they wish they had help with, or asks about…
Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality. Use this skill when the user asks to build web components, pages, artifacts, posters, or applications (examples include websites, landing pages, dashboards, React components, HTML/CSS layouts, or when styling/beautifying any web UI).…
Production Go patterns — lifecycle, concurrency, config, testing, CI. Use when writing, reviewing, or refactoring Go code. Triggers on Go code review, Go refactoring, or 'go best practices'.
Design and implement microinteractions, motion design, transitions, and user feedback patterns. Use when adding polish to UI interactions, implementing loading states, creating gesture-based interactions, designing hover/focus states, building notification/toast systems, adding scroll-triggered animations…
Design engineering principles for making interfaces feel polished. Use when building UI components, reviewing frontend code, implementing animations, hover states, shadows, borders, typography, micro-interactions, enter/exit animations, or any visual detail work. Triggers on UI polish, design details, "make it feel…
Operate the Noodle CLI — explain commands, find flags, create/edit .noodle.toml config. Also covers writing skills for Noodle: the orders pipeline, task-type schedule fields, stage composition, and the orders-next.json schema. Use when running noodle commands, editing .noodle.toml, writing or updating a skill's…
Infrastructure fix for broken builds, failed tests, stale state, and environment drift. Covers both user-project and Noodle-internal failures. Triggers when builds break, tests fail, state is stale, or environment drifts. Use on 'oops', 'fix the build', 'tests are failing', 'something broke', 'broken build'.
Systematic planning for medium-to-large tasks. Gathers context, identifies domain skills, writes phased plans to brain/plans/. Does NOT implement. Use for new features, multi-file refactors, or architectural changes — not small fixes. Triggers: "plan this", "break this down".
Post-cook quality gate. Reviews completed cook work for correctness, scope discipline, and principle compliance. Emits stagemessage events with findings. Triggers after execute stages, on '/quality', 'review this', 'check the work', 'assess quality'.
React performance optimization guidelines. Use when writing, reviewing, or refactoring React components, hooks, effects, data fetching, or bundle optimization. Includes useEffect best practices — when NOT to use effects and better alternatives. Triggers: "when writing React code", "reviewing a React PR", "why is this…
Reflect on the conversation and update the brain. Use when wrapping up, after mistakes or corrections, or when significant codebase knowledge was gained. Triggers: "reflect", "remember this".
Mine past Claude Code and Codex conversations for uncaptured patterns, corrections, and knowledge. Cross-references with existing brain content. Triggers: "ruminate", "mine my history", "what have I been working on", "review past sessions", "extract learnings".
Orders scheduler. Reads .noodle/mise.json, writes .noodle/orders-next.json. Schedules work orders based on backlog state, plan phases, session history, and task type schedules. Triggers when orders are empty, after backlog changes, when the loop re-evaluates, or when /schedule is invoked.
