World-Class Technology & Data Playbook. Use for: software development best practices, IT infrastructure design, cybersecurity strategy, data analytics, business intelligence, automation & DevOps, cloud computing architecture, AI/ML adoption, technical architecture decisions, digital transformation strategy, platform engineering, CI/CD pipelines, zero-trust security, data governance, FinOps, edge computing, observability, MLOps, and technology leadership. Trigger when discussing ANY technology strategy, engineering practice, data platform, security posture, cloud architecture, AI implementation, or digital transformation topic. If in doubt, use this skill.

Security engineering toolkit for threat modeling, vulnerability analysis, secure architecture, and penetration testing. Includes STRIDE analysis, OWASP guidance, cryptography patterns, and security scanning tools. Use when the user asks about security reviews, threat analysis, vulnerability assessments, secure coding practices, security audits, attack surface analysis, CVE remediation, or security best practices.

Senior SecOps engineer skill for application security, vulnerability management, compliance verification, and secure development practices. Runs SAST/DAST scans, generates CVE remediation plans, checks dependency vulnerabilities, creates security policies, enforces secure coding patterns, and automates compliance checks against SOC2, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR. Use when conducting a security review or audit, responding to a CVE or security incident, hardening infrastructure, implementing authentication or secrets management, running penetration test prep, checking OWASP Top 10 exposure, or enforcing security controls in CI/CD pipelines.

Generates unit tests, integration tests, and E2E tests for React/Next.js applications. Scans components to create Jest + React Testing Library test stubs, analyzes Istanbul/LCOV coverage reports to surface gaps, scaffolds Playwright test files from Next.js routes, mocks API calls with MSW, creates test fixtures, and configures test runners. Use when the user asks to "generate tests", "write unit tests", "analyze test coverage", "scaffold E2E tests", "set up Playwright", "configure Jest", "implement testing patterns", or "improve test quality".

This skill should be used when the user asks to "optimize prompts", "design prompt templates", "evaluate LLM outputs", "build agentic systems", "implement RAG", "create few-shot examples", "analyze token usage", or "design AI workflows". Use for prompt engineering patterns, LLM evaluation frameworks, agent architectures, and structured output design.

Senior Project Manager for enterprise software, SaaS, and digital transformation projects. Specializes in portfolio management, quantitative risk analysis, resource optimization, stakeholder alignment, and executive reporting. Uses advanced methodologies including EMV analysis, Monte Carlo simulation, WSJF prioritization, and multi-dimensional health scoring. Use when a user needs help with project plans, project status reports, risk assessments, resource allocation, project roadmaps, milestone tracking, team capacity planning, portfolio health reviews, program management, or executive-level project reporting — especially for enterprise-scale initiatives with multiple workstreams, complex dependencies, or multi-million dollar budgets.

ML engineering skill for productionizing models, building MLOps pipelines, and integrating LLMs. Covers model deployment, feature stores, drift monitoring, RAG systems, and cost optimization. Use when the user asks about deploying ML models to production, setting up MLOps infrastructure (MLflow, Kubeflow, Kubernetes, Docker), monitoring model performance or drift, building RAG pipelines, or integrating LLM APIs with retry logic and cost controls. Focused on production and operational concerns rather than model research or initial training.

Fullstack development toolkit with project scaffolding for Next.js, FastAPI, MERN, and Django stacks, code quality analysis with security and complexity scoring, and stack selection guidance. Use when the user asks to "scaffold a new project", "create a Next.js app", "set up FastAPI with React", "analyze code quality", "audit my codebase", "what stack should I use", "generate project boilerplate", or mentions fullstack development, project setup, or tech stack comparison.

Frontend development skill for React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS applications. Use when building React components, optimizing Next.js performance, analyzing bundle sizes, scaffolding frontend projects, implementing accessibility, or reviewing frontend code quality.

Comprehensive DevOps skill for CI/CD, infrastructure automation, containerization, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). Includes pipeline setup, infrastructure as code, deployment automation, and monitoring. Use when setting up pipelines, deploying applications, managing infrastructure, implementing monitoring, or optimizing deployment processes.

World-class senior data scientist skill specialising in statistical modeling, experiment design, causal inference, and predictive analytics. Covers A/B testing (sample sizing, two-proportion z-tests, Bonferroni correction), difference-in-differences, feature engineering pipelines (Scikit-learn, XGBoost), cross-validated model evaluation (AUC-ROC, AUC-PR, SHAP), and MLflow experiment tracking — using Python (NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn), R, and SQL. Use when designing or analysing controlled experiments, building and evaluating classification or regression models, performing causal analysis on observational data, engineering features for structured tabular datasets, or translating statistical findings into data-driven business decisions.

Computer vision engineering skill for object detection, image segmentation, and visual AI systems. Covers CNN and Vision Transformer architectures, YOLO/Faster R-CNN/DETR detection, Mask R-CNN/SAM segmentation, and production deployment with ONNX/TensorRT. Includes PyTorch, torchvision, Ultralytics, Detectron2, and MMDetection frameworks. Use when building detection pipelines, training custom models, optimizing inference, or deploying vision systems.
