Addy Osmani Agent Skills

Interview Me is Addy’s strongest entry point for vague work. It asks one question at a time until underlying intent is clear, creating a measured human checkpoint before the broader lifecycle begins.

A strong bridge between discovery and implementation. It expresses a change as independently testable capabilities, making large requests easier to review, sequence, and hand to agents without turning the specification into implementation trivia.

A broad pre-merge review that treats correctness as only one axis. Its value is the systematic inclusion of maintainability, test quality, security, and performance before a change enters main.

Security and Hardening widens an agent’s implementation lens to trust boundaries, untrusted input, sessions, data handling, external integrations, and privacy. It is one of the clearest capabilities Addy’s lifecycle adds beyond an inner-loop coding methodology.

Shipping and Launch makes deployment an engineering phase rather than the moment after tests pass. It forces explicit monitoring, staged exposure, rollback, ownership, and go/no-go evidence.
