Enforce structured JSON logging, OpenTelemetry distributed tracing, and RED metrics across backend services. Use when adding request correlation, setting up tracing spans, defining SLO burn-rate alerts, or instrumenting middleware. (triggers: **/*.service.ts, **/*.handler.ts, **/*.middleware.ts, **/*.interceptor.ts, **/*.go, **/*.java, **/*.kt, **/*.py, logging, tracing, metrics, opentelemetry, observability, slo)

Enforce universal mobile UX principles for touch-first interfaces including touch targets, safe areas, and mobile-specific interaction patterns. Use when building mobile screens, handling touch interactions, or validating safe area compliance. (triggers: **/*_page.dart, **/*_screen.dart, **/*_view.dart, **/*.swift, **/*Activity.kt, **/*Screen.tsx, mobile, responsive, SafeArea, touch, gesture, viewport)

Apply motion design principles for mobile apps covering timing curves, transitions, gestures, and performance-conscious animations. Use when implementing screen transitions, gesture-driven interactions, shared-element animations, or optimizing animation frame rates on iOS, Android, or Flutter. (triggers: **/*_page.dart, **/*_screen.dart, **/*.swift, **/*Activity.kt, **/*Screen.tsx, Animation, AnimationController, Animated, MotionLayout, transition, gesture)

Cross-cutting standards for error design, response shapes, error codes, and boundary placement across API, domain, and infrastructure layers. Use when defining error hierarchies, wrapping exceptions, building standardized error responses, or placing error boundaries in layered architectures. (triggers: **/*.service.ts, **/*.handler.ts, **/*.controller.ts, **/*.go, **/*.java, **/*.kt, **/*.py, error handling, exception, try catch, error boundary, error response, error code, throw)

Standards for creating clear, audience-appropriate C4 and UML architecture diagrams with Mermaid. Use when producing system context diagrams, container views, sequence diagrams, or updating ARCHITECTURE.md files. (triggers: ARCHITECTURE.md, **/*.mermaid, **/*.drawio, diagram, architecture, c4, system design, mermaid)

Audit structural debt, logic leakage, and monolithic components across Web, Mobile, and Backend codebases. Use when reviewing architecture, assessing tech debt, detecting logic in wrong layers, or identifying God classes. (triggers: package.json, pubspec.yaml, go.mod, pom.xml, nest-cli.json, architecture audit, code review, tech debt, logic leakage, refactor)

Apply REST API conventions — HTTP semantics, status codes, versioning, pagination, and OpenAPI standards for any framework. Use when designing endpoints, choosing HTTP methods, implementing pagination, or writing OpenAPI specs. (triggers: **/*.controller.ts, **/*.router.ts, **/*.routes.ts, **/routes/**, **/controllers/**, **/handlers/**, rest api, endpoint, http method, status code, versioning, pagination, openapi, api design, api contract)

Enforce WCAG 2.2 AA compliance with semantic HTML, ARIA roles, keyboard navigation, and color contrast standards for web UIs. Use when building interactive components, adding form labels, fixing focus traps, or auditing a11y compliance. (triggers: **/*.tsx, **/*.jsx, **/*.html, **/*.vue, **/*.component.html, accessibility, a11y, wcag, aria, screen reader, focus, alt text)

Design distinctive, production-grade frontend UI with bold aesthetic choices. Use when building web components, pages, interfaces, dashboards, or applications in any framework (React, Next.js, Angular, Vue, HTML/CSS). (triggers: build a page, create a component, design a dashboard, landing page, UI for, build a layout, make it look good, improve the design, build UI, create interface, design screen)

Implements a strict Red-Green-Refactor loop to ensure zero production code is written without a prior failing test. Use when: creating new features, fixing bugs, or expanding test coverage. (triggers: **/*.test.ts, **/*.spec.ts, **/*_test.go, **/*Test.java, **/*_test.dart, **/*_spec.rb, tdd, unit test, write test, red green refactor, failing test, test coverage)

Enforce separation of concerns, dependency inversion, and resilience patterns across layered and distributed architectures. Use when designing new features, evaluating module boundaries, selecting architectural patterns, or resolving scalability bottlenecks. (triggers: architecture, design, system, scalability, microservice, module boundary, coupling)

Generate user-facing release notes for the Apple App Store and Google Play Store by collecting git history, triaging user-impacting changes, and drafting store-compliant changelogs. Enforces character limits (App Store ≤4000, Google Play ≤500), tone, and bullet format. Use when generating release notes, app store changelog, play store release, what's new, or version release notes for any mobile app. (triggers: generate changelog, app store notes, play store release, what's new, release notes, version notes, store release)
