Apply when context is filling up: large outputs, long files, repeated reads, fan-out planning. Route bulk to subagents; keep summaries in the main thread, not raw payloads.

Guard the Context Window

The context window is finite and non-renewable within a session. Every token should be worth its cost.

Why: Context overflow degrades reasoning quality, creates compression artifacts, and halts progress.

Pattern:

  • Isolate large payloads. Route verbose outputs, screenshots, and large documents to subagents. The main context gets summaries, not raw data.
  • Keep frequently used content inline. Templates and references used on every invocation belong in the skill file, not in separate files that cost a read each time.
  • Size phases and cap scope. Limit files per phase, set turn budgets, account for mechanism costs.

code-review

Review the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along five axes: Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding standards?), Spec (does the code match what the originating issue/spec asked for?), Evidence (does each claim in the pull request have evidence that shows it?), Bugs (does the changed code have logic errors, unhandled states, races, or regressions?), and Security (does the change open injection, auth, secret, input, or CI workflow holes?). Runs the reviews in parallel sub-agents, tags every finding Important, Nit, or Pre-existing, and reports them side by side with what blocks merge. Given an earlier reviewed head and its findings, it reviews only the newer commits, rechecks the earlier findings, and never repeats one. Use when the user wants to review a branch, a PR, work-in-progress changes, or asks to "review since X".

wizard

Generate an interactive bash wizard that walks a human through steps only they can perform. Use when provisioning infrastructure, setting up credentials or CI secrets, walking an unfamiliar third-party dashboard, or running a one-off migration or cutover. Don't invoke this for steps the agent can perform itself.

wayfinder

Plan a huge chunk of work (more than one agent session can hold) as a shared map of decision tickets on your issue tracker, and resolve them one at a time until the way to the destination is clear.
