Six skills for working with coding agents seriously: methodical (spec-first execution, with a failure model for stateful work), review (independent second opinion on the plan before building, ideally from a different model family), verify (adversarial check of agent work against its spec), independent-tests (failure-model tests written from the spec alone), handoff (survive context exhaustion), reflect (proactive offers without nagging).

handoffWrite a handoff document so work survives a context reset. Use when a task is outgrowing a single context window, when you're pausing work someone (or a fresh session) will pick up later, or when the user asks to "hand this off" or "create a handoff document". A deliberate handoff beats lossy automa
independent-testsHave the tests for risky, stateful work written by an agent that has seen only the spec and never the implementation, so the tests encode what the invariants require rather than what the code happens to do. Use when a spec has a failure model (states, concurrency, restarts, retries, cancels), or whe
methodicalLightweight methodical execution for multi-step coding tasks. Spec first, task list, verify-as-you-go loop, strict escalation policy. Use when the user says "be methodical" / "work methodically" / "use a task list", or when starting any multi-step implementation task. A middle tier between raw promp
reflectBefore ending an idle turn, re-read the conversation with fresh eyes and either make one or two specific, low-effort offers of help, or say nothing. Use at a natural pause when the user has gone quiet and work is parked. The discipline is proactive help WITHOUT nagging: silence is the default, and a
reviewGet an independent second opinion on a plan, diagnosis, or about-to-be-sent instruction, from a reviewer that judges direction and premises rather than spec conformance. Use before acting on a risky or wide-blast-radius decision, before dispatching work to someone else, or any time you catch yoursel
verifyIndependently verify that work an agent (or you) just produced actually satisfies its spec, before it reaches the human. Spawns a read-only verifier subagent that reviews the diff against the spec and returns a structured pass/fail verdict with evidence. Use before claiming a task is done, before op
