Skills

Analyzes and resolves git merge conflicts by understanding the intent of both sides. Examines the conflict markers, surrounding context, and commit history to produce a correct merged result that preserves both changes without breaking functionality.

Generates TypeScript type definitions from various sources — JSON data, API responses, database schemas, or plain descriptions. Produces strict types with proper generics, utility types, discriminated unions, and JSDoc comments.

Designs and implements comprehensive error handling for APIs. Covers error response formats (RFC 7807 Problem Details), HTTP status code selection, error logging strategies, retry logic, and client-friendly error messages with proper i18n support.

Generates complete OpenAPI 3.1 specifications from API descriptions, existing code, or route definitions. Includes request/response schemas, authentication, error responses, examples, and server configurations. Produces valid YAML ready for Swagger UI.

Generates production-ready React components with TypeScript, proper props interfaces, accessibility attributes, responsive design, and test files. Follows modern patterns including Server Components, Suspense boundaries, and composition over inheritance.

Explains complex code in plain language at the requested level of detail. Breaks down algorithms, design patterns, and architecture decisions. Adapts explanation depth from high-level overview to line-by-line walkthrough based on audience.

Translates code between programming languages while preserving logic, idioms, and best practices of the target language. Handles differences in type systems, error handling, concurrency models, and standard library APIs. Produces idiomatic target code, not line-by-line transliteration.

Builds, explains, and tests regular expressions from natural language descriptions. Supports multiple regex flavors (PCRE, JavaScript, Python, Go). Provides step-by-step breakdowns, test cases, and performance considerations for complex patterns.

Identifies and resolves performance bottlenecks in code and systems. Covers algorithmic complexity analysis, memory optimization, caching strategies, database query tuning, and frontend performance (Core Web Vitals). Follows a measure-first approach.

Automated code review that provides actionable feedback on code quality, potential bugs, performance issues, security vulnerabilities, and style violations. Analyzes code changes with the rigor of a senior engineer, providing specific suggestions with code examples.

Designs RESTful and GraphQL APIs following contract-first principles. Covers endpoint structure, request/response schemas, error handling, versioning, pagination, authentication, and rate limiting. Produces OpenAPI/Swagger specifications and implementation scaffolding.

Systematic debugging workflow that helps identify, isolate, and fix bugs. Follows a structured approach: reproduce, localize, reduce, fix, guard. Analyzes error messages, stack traces, and logs to pinpoint root causes rather than symptoms.

Designs, optimizes, and iterates on prompts for LLM applications. Covers system prompt design, few-shot examples, chain-of-thought reasoning, output formatting, and prompt testing strategies. Helps build reliable AI-powered features.

Guides systematic code refactoring while preserving exact behavior. Identifies code smells, suggests appropriate refactoring patterns, and executes transformations incrementally with verification at each step. Follows Chesterton's Fence principle — understands why code exists before changing it.
