skill-governance-loop
Use when the user asks to review a skill, analyze skill quality, update a skill version, or run a repeatable keep/disable/archive decision loop from real failures instead of abstract best practices.
Best use case
skill-governance-loop is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Use when the user asks to review a skill, analyze skill quality, update a skill version, or run a repeatable keep/disable/archive decision loop from real failures instead of abstract best practices.
Teams using skill-governance-loop should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill

# Skill Governance Loop ## Overview Use this skill for evidence-based governance of one skill or a small target set. It starts from a concrete problem, audits the skill, and ends with an explicit keep, disable, merge, split, or archive decision. ## Rules - Start from a concrete case such as poor triggering, overlap, bloat, or a version update request. - Produce three outputs every time: the case, the audit, and the decision. - Separate static quality from observed usefulness; a pretty skill is not automatically a useful skill. - Use inventory tooling first when the scope is broad enough to need filesystem evidence. - Record the next hypothesis so the next governance pass has a sharper starting point. ## When to Use Use when: - the user asks to review a skill, analyze skill quality, or update a skill version - a skill may need to be kept, disabled, merged, split, archived, or moved - the user wants a repeatable governance loop instead of one-off edits Do not use when: - the task is broad inventory scanning of many skills at once - the work is simple skill authoring with no governance decision - the request is only to discover whether a skill exists

timestamped-video-summary
Generate a detailed, professional video content summary from timestamped subtitles/transcripts (e.g., lines starting with 00:00 / 1:23:45). Enforce strict per-segment structure (timestamp range + bold segment title + 2-paragraph body: first-person creator summary + expert 【导师评注】 critique with uncertainty handling). Use when the user provides time-coded subtitles and asks for a规范化纪要/内容纪要/逐段总结, and optionally wants a clean PDF export (do NOT include the full raw transcript in the PDF unless explicitly requested).

session-recovery-codex
Use when recovering a Codex session, especially if the user provides a Codex session id or wants recent Codex sessions listed before resuming work.
research-lead-sidecar
Use when the user wants multi-agent division of labor for research-led work and the lead should stay on the critical path while 1-2 bounded sidecars handle low-coupling tasks. Do not use this for tiny tasks, fully sequential debugging, or overlapping refactors.
question-refiner
Use when a research question is still vague and must be clarified into a structured deep-research brief before actual literature research or execution. Skip this if the user already has a concrete paper draft or a ready-to-run research specification.
prompt-polisher
Use when receiving messy, unstructured input like voice transcriptions, stream-of-consciousness notes, or rough document content that needs to be transformed into a polished, optimized prompt. Cleans up filler words, extracts intent, asks clarifying questions, applies Claude 4.x/Opus 4.5/Sonnet 4.5 best practices, and previews the polished prompt for approval before execution. Trigger phrases include "polish this", "clean this up", "turn this into a prompt", or when input is clearly rough/unstructured.
