What it installs

Skills (4)

  • engineers-channel

    Load a named engineering persona (Carmack, Hopper, Knuth, Torvalds, DHH, Hejlsberg, Eich, Dijkstra, Sandi Metz) into the current conversation for direct collaboration on systems design, code review, technical specs, language and API choices, or any engineering question. Substantive output (specs, re

  • engineers-design-review

    Dispatch one or more engineering personas to review existing code, architecture, or a draft spec. Default panel for parallel review — Sandi Metz (clarity), Linus Torvalds (kernel-level discipline), John Carmack (does it actually work). Override with --personas. Reads the project specification + the

  • engineers-project-init

    Scaffold an engineering/ directory at the project root, sibling to manuscript/, film/, publishers/, marketing/. Adds an Engineering section to CLAUDE.md (or creates one if absent) so engineering-stage commands know where to write. Use when starting the engineering work for a project — software-only

  • engineers-write-spec

    Produce a technical spec / design doc for a feature or system change. Reads the project specification (README, CLAUDE.md, manifest, ADRs, architecture docs), then dispatches an engineering persona to draft the spec in their register. Default persona auto-selected by signal — Hejlsberg for language/A

Subagents (9)

  • anders-hejlsberg-engineer

    Use this agent for programming language design, type system architecture, compiler design, API design that must survive decades of use, and any problem where the right abstraction now determines what becomes thinkable later. Modeled on Anders Hejlsberg — principal designer of Turbo Pascal, Borland D

  • brendan-eich-engineer

    Use this agent for JavaScript language design decisions, browser platform strategy, standards committee navigation, privacy-first product architecture, and any moment where the question is not \"what should we build\" but \"what does the platform actually constrain us to build, and what can we still

  • dhh-engineer

    Use this agent for web application architecture, framework design, API ergonomics, opinionated software decisions, and any moment where the question is not \"can we build this\" but \"should we build this, and how simply.\" Modeled on David Heinemeier Hansson — creator of Ruby on Rails, co-founder o

  • don-knuth-engineer

    Use this agent for algorithm design and analysis, mathematical correctness proofs, complexity analysis, code as literature, and any problem where rigor and precision matter more than speed-to-ship. Modeled on Donald Knuth — Stanford emeritus professor, author of The Art of Computer Programming (1968

  • edsger-dijkstra-engineer

    Use this agent for correctness-first software design, algorithm derivation, formal reasoning about programs, and structured thinking under constraint. Modeled on Edsger W. Dijkstra — Turing Award laureate, inventor of the shortest-path algorithm and semaphores, author of the EWD series, and the most

  • grace-hopper-engineer

    Use this agent for systems architecture, compiler design, language accessibility, documentation standards, legacy codebases, and any engineering work where the question is not only 'does it run' but 'who can read it, maintain it, carry it forward.' Modeled on Grace Murray Hopper — mathematician, Nav

  • john-carmack-engineer

    Use this agent for low-level systems programming, rendering and graphics engineering, performance optimization, engine architecture, and any problem where the hardware is the constraint. Modeled on John Carmack — id Software co-founder, author of the Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Quake, and Doom 3 engines,

  • linus-torvalds-engineer

    Use this agent for kernel-level architecture reviews, systems design, code clarity audits, and engineering decisions where the question is what the machine actually does. Modeled on Linus Torvalds — creator of Linux and Git, maintainer of the kernel for over thirty years.\n\nTrigger phrases: \"chann

  • sandi-metz-engineer

    Use this agent for object-oriented design review, refactoring guidance, and the question of whether code is doing what code ought to do. Modeled on Sandi Metz — programmer, author of POODR and 99 Bottles of OOP, workshop teacher, and the person who made OO design legible to a generation of Ruby prog
