  • Reviewing assigned code changes
  • Checking duplication and inconsistent patterns
  • Reviewing fixes that lack a written specification
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

Develop features and fix bugs by writing a behavior test first, observing its expected failure, and adding the minimum code needed to pass. Then clean up the code while keeping tests passing, applying this process where regression risk warrants it.

  • Developing a feature from a failing behavior test
  • Reproducing a bug before implementing its fix
  • Refactoring while keeping behavior tests passing
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

Manage OpenRig development work from setup to completion using shared specification, progress, and evidence files. Record what was actually checked and pass work to the next owner so handoffs and conversation compaction preserve the context.

  • Starting a development task with clear completion criteria
  • Recording progress and verification evidence
  • Handing work to another agent
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

queue-handoff

FreeSummary

Hand off OpenRig work through persistent queue items that record the next owner, blockers, and closure reasons. The skill covers notifying recipients, escalating to a human, and keeping supporting evidence accessible across interruptions and missed messages.

FreeSummary

Look up exact syntax, options, JSON output, defaults, and error meanings for a known OpenRig command. Use the reference to check command behavior and diagnose runtime differences against the installed help and running daemon.

  • Checking required flags for a known rig command
  • Looking up queue commands and handoff syntax
  • Investigating command errors and daemon compatibility
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

rig-lifecycle

FreeSummary

Plan and verify OpenRig startup, shutdown, and recovery. Compare reported status with actual running sessions, distinguish recovery outcomes, and define reboot tests that expose partial failures instead of hiding them behind a fresh launch.

  • Checking rig status after a host reboot
  • Designing recovery tests across runtimes
  • Investigating partially restored agent sessions
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

Guides agents through sending human decision requests and updates using registered recipients. It covers concise briefs, delivery checks, duplicate prevention, and linking replies to the correct work so that delivery receipts are kept distinct from human decisions.

  • Sending a decision request with clear options
  • Reporting an outcome that needs no action
  • Investigating a failed or uncertain delivery
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

backlog-capture

FreeSummary

Turn rough meeting notes, customer requests, and product ideas into structured backlog entries, a list of possible improvements. Capture who needs each idea and why, categorize it, and update matching entries with new evidence.

  • Capturing feature ideas after a meeting
  • Recording requests from customers or sales
  • Logging product gaps found in competitor research
mvschwarz/openrig8KUpdated Oct 21, 2026

context-builder

FreeSummary

Collects and summarizes background research for a product feature, including customer needs, competitors, regulations, and internal decisions. Produces a source-linked background.md and updates shared context documents when findings are useful across features.

  • Gathering background research for a new feature
  • Organizing customer requests and pain points

  • Resuming interrupted operations from verified evidence
  • Deciding whether an agent or ordinary code should control a procedure
