brigade

In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.

• bug-hunt

  Use when asked to find bugs, hunt for correctness issues, sweep a codebase for defects, or verify a repo behaves as intended. Not for style or architecture review; this is defect-finding only.

• check

  Use when about to claim anything works, is fixed, is complete, or passes - before committing, replying to the user, or moving to the next task. Also use when relaying a subagent's or tool's success report, and especially at the end of a long session when the pull to say "done" is strongest.

• latent-premises

  Use when reviewing a diff or module for hidden assumptions - things the code takes for granted that nothing guarantees - or when asked "what could break this later", "what does this assume", or to harden code that works today. Complements bug-hunt: bug-hunt finds defects with triggers today; this finds the ones waiting for tomorrow.

• reduce

  Use when asked to simplify, clean up, tidy, or refactor code for clarity without changing what it does, or when the user says "simplify this", "clean this up", "make it readable", "reduce the complexity", or "tidy this". Behavior-preserving only; not a bug or security audit (use bug-hunt or security-sweep for those).

• refire

  Use when anything misbehaves - a failing test, a production bug, a build break, flaky or unexpected behavior - before proposing or attempting any fix. Especially under pressure ("CI is blocking everyone", "just get it green") and after a previous fix didn't hold.

• retry-safety

  Use when a diff carries side effects - database writes, migrations, file mutations, network calls, payments, queue messages - to check whether running it twice is safe. Also when reviewing retry logic, crash recovery, or anything a scheduler, queue, or impatient caller might re-run. Silent when the diff touches no side-effecting surface.

• taste

  Use when implementing any feature, bugfix, or behavior change, before writing the implementation code. Especially use under pressure - production is down, "just make it work", "quick fix" - which is when it gets skipped.

• verify-brigade

  Prove a Brigade change works by driving the real `brigade` CLI against a throwaway temp target, then capture receipts as evidence. Use when you changed anything under src/brigade/ and need proof beyond pytest - init/doctor wiring, work-verify receipts, Grok Bot connector packs, feed manifests, handoff lint. Also use before claiming a CLI behavior in a PR body, handoff, or job report.

• brigade-work

  Use at the start of any work session and whenever you verify a change in a Brigade-wired repo or workspace - routes work through Brigade so verification, outcomes, evidence export, and handoffs are captured (verify with capture → outcome from run → evidence brief next time) instead of leaving Brigade installed-but-dormant. Triggers on starting a task, running tests/checks, or finishing a session.

• enforce

  Use when the user asks to turn on Brigade's full work loop (verification capture, raw-check blocking, and the handoff-before-stop gate) in the current repository.
