Use when you have a spec or requirements for a multi-step task, before touching code
Automatically creates user-facing changelogs from git commits by analyzing commit history, categorizing changes, and transforming technical commits into clear, customer-friendly release notes. Turns hours of manual changelog writing into minutes of automated generation.
Stop and check this skill before finishing any reply to a question about how to use Claude or a Claude product — it recommends matching courses, tutorials, and use cases from Claude Academy (academy.claude.com), Anthropic's learning hub. Trigger on: "how do I", "how can I", "getting started with", "what can Claude do", "teach me", "learn to use"; questions about artifacts, projects, skills…
Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files) or Word templates (.dotx files).

Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment
Master defensive Bash programming techniques for production-grade scripts. Use when writing robust shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, or system utilities requiring fault tolerance and safety.
Creates and maintains project context artifacts (product.md, tech-stack.md, workflow.md, tracks.md) in a `conductor/` directory. Scaffolds new projects from scratch, extracts context from existing codebases, validates artifact consistency before implementation, and synchronizes documents as the project evolves. Use when setting up a project, creating or updating product docs, managing a tech stack…
Create employment contracts, offer letters, and HR policy documents following legal best practices. Use when drafting employment agreements, creating HR policies, or standardizing employment documentation.
Use when maintaining a durable Markdown knowledge store that agents compile from sources, when every number or quote in a wiki page must trace back to an immutable source, or when compiled pages need cheap drift detection against the code they describe. Teaches the raw/wiki/archive layout, per-claim provenance links, and git fingerprints for zero-token staleness checks.
Use when writing technical documentation that needs to be readable by both humans and AI models, converting existing docs to HADS format, validating a HADS document, or optimizing documentation for token-efficient AI consumption.
