Instructions and examples...

Skills vs Agents?

Skills = Knowledge (methodology, templates, best practices)
Agents = Workers (spawned via Task tool to do tasks independently)

Skills inform how to do something. Agents actually do things.

Debug hooks not running?

Enable debug mode:
```
CLAUDE_HOOK_DEBUG=1
```
Check
```
settings.json
```
has hook registered
Verify file is executable (
```
chmod +x
```
)

Skill not activating?

Check YAML frontmatter is valid (name + description)
Ensure description has trigger keywords
Try explicit reference: "Use the X skill"

Command workflow?

New Project:

/greenfield → SPEC.md + DESIGN.md + PLAN.md → /plan [feature] → implement → /review → /validate → /ship

Existing Project:

/plan [feature] → implement → /slop (optional) → /review → /validate → /ship

Research:

/research [topic] → findings → /progress (save as docs)

Project vs Global

Location	Scope
`~/.claude/`	All projects (personal)
`./.claude/`	This project only (team)

Project-level config takes precedence over global.

For Everything Else

Read the actual files. This skill points you where to look - don't rely on this skill having the latest info.
