Claude Skills

Implement and maintain compliance with SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR using unified control mapping, policy-as-code enforcement, and automated evidence collection. Use when building systems requiring regulatory compliance, implementing security controls across multiple frameworks, or automating audit preparation.

API design and implementation across REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and tRPC patterns. Use when building backend services, public APIs, or service-to-service communication. Covers REST frameworks (FastAPI, Axum, Gin, Hono), GraphQL libraries (Strawberry, async-graphql, gqlgen, Pothos), gRPC (Tonic, Connect-Go), tRPC for TypeScript, pagination strategies (cursor-based, offset-based), rate limiting, caching, versioning, and OpenAPI documentation generation. Includes frontend integration patterns for forms, tables, dashboards, and ai-chat skills.

When distributing traffic across multiple servers or regions, use this skill to select and configure the appropriate load balancing solution (L4/L7, cloud-managed, self-managed, or Kubernetes ingress) with proper health checks and session management.

Apply and enforce cloud resource tagging strategies across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes for cost allocation, ownership tracking, compliance, and automation. Use when implementing cloud governance, optimizing costs, or automating infrastructure management.

Implements feedback and notification systems including toasts, alerts, modals, progress indicators, and error states. Use when communicating system state, displaying messages, confirming actions, or showing errors.

Engineer effective LLM prompts using zero-shot, few-shot, chain-of-thought, and structured output techniques. Use when building LLM applications requiring reliable outputs, implementing RAG systems, creating AI agents, or optimizing prompt quality and cost. Covers OpenAI, Anthropic, and open-source models with multi-language examples (Python/TypeScript).

Design cloud network architectures with VPC patterns, subnet strategies, zero trust principles, and hybrid connectivity. Use when planning VPC topology, implementing multi-cloud networking, or establishing secure network segmentation for cloud workloads.

Design and implement Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) with self-service capabilities, golden paths, and developer experience optimization. Covers platform strategy, IDP architecture (Backstage, Port), infrastructure orchestration (Crossplane), GitOps (Argo CD), and adoption patterns. Use when building developer platforms, improving DevEx, or establishing platform teams.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "build a feature", "create a spec", "start spec-driven development", "run research phase", "generate requirements", "create design", "plan tasks", "implement spec", "check spec status", or needs guidance on the spec-driven development workflow.

Output rules for all agents - concise, scannable, actionable. Based on Matt Pocock's planning principles.

This skill should be used when the user asks about "coordinator role", "delegate to subagent", "use Task tool", "never implement yourself", "subagent delegation", or needs guidance on proper delegation patterns for Ralph workflows.

Core principle that the main agent is a coordinator, not an implementer. All work must be delegated to subagents.

This skill should be used when the user asks about "ralph arguments", "quick mode", "commit spec", "max iterations", "ralph state file", "execution modes", "ralph loop integration", or needs guidance on common Ralph plugin arguments and state management patterns.

This skill should be used when the user asks about "output formatting", "concise responses", "Matt Pocock planning style", "scannable output", "action steps format", or needs guidance on communication and output formatting rules for Ralph agents.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "verify a fix", "reproduce failure", "diagnose issue", "check BEFORE/AFTER state", "VF task", "reality check", or needs guidance on verifying fixes by reproducing failures before and after implementation.

Standard single-question adaptive interview loop used across all spec phases

Comprehensive understanding of the spec-kit methodology. Constitution-driven feature development with specify, plan, tasks, and implement phases.

Core Smart Ralph skill defining common arguments, execution modes, and shared behaviors across all Ralph plugins.
