Skills¶
Skills are step-by-step playbooks the assistant loads when you ask for them. In Claude
Code, call one as /anti-hall:<name>, or just describe what you want ("is anti-hall
working", "write a handover") and the matching skill is picked.
Working well¶
| Skill | Use it when | What it does |
|---|---|---|
root-cause |
A bug, crash, failing or flaky test, "why is X failing" | Evidence first: reproduce, collect evidence, add logging if it is missing, prove the cause, then fix it and verify. No proven cause, no fix. |
ship-it |
Building a feature or fixing something, small or large | Scales to the size of the change: plan in plan mode, review the plan, build in phases, and verify each phase with fresh evidence. |
deadly-loop |
Before merging something risky (security, data, shell, CI, prompts) | Parallel Reviewer, Auditor and Critic agents debate the change and fix what they find, round after round, until no new serious findings appear. |
deadly-loop-multi |
You want a deeper review | Two to four deadly-loop passes in parallel, each with a different focus. |
orchestration |
Heavy, long or parallel work | Keeps the main session free: helper agents run in the background in parallel, and the main session checks their results. |
simplify |
"Simplify this", "deslop", over-engineered code | A cleanup that keeps behaviour the same and reports the net line change. |
debt |
Tracking a deliberate shortcut | Registers and audits // anti-hall: debt markers so shortcuts do not rot unnoticed. |
handover |
Before /compact or /clear, or at the end of a session |
Writes a complete session handover. See Handovers. |
Running anti-hall¶
| Skill | Use it when | What it does |
|---|---|---|
doctor |
"Is anti-hall working?" | Live self-tests on every guard. --repair applies safe fixes. |
settings |
"Turn off X", "set auto-handover to 80%" | Shows or changes settings. See Changing settings. |
update |
"Update anti-hall", "is anti-hall up to date" | Updates in place and shows the changelog. See Update. |
activate |
First-time setup | Installs the statusline and the model-routing state in one go. |
install-statusline |
"Install the statusline" | Installs the two-line statusline. See Statusline. |
system-briefing |
"Brief me on anti-hall", "what does X mean" | An operator guide to the terms, rules, commands and settings, with a live list of what is installed. |
defects |
"File an anti-hall bug", "did they fix my report" | Files and tracks reports about anti-hall itself. |
jev |
"Activate jev", "jev report" | Sets up and reports on the optional Jev classifier. |
devswarm |
Using DevSwarm workspaces | Explains and tunes the optional DevSwarm integration. See DevSwarm. |
On Codex¶
The Codex port has its own skill set, named anti-hall-<name> (for example
anti-hall-root-cause, anti-hall-doctor). It mirrors most of the skills above, with
some differences where Codex works differently, such as no /config panel. The list is in
the Codex port README.
