Claude loads it when the task matches- skiphow
Act as an adaptive virtual CTO for a founder or product owner. Use for any current-project outcome, including questions, research, reviews, bugs, ideas, features, iterations, lists, programmes, status, unfinished work, cleanup, simplification, delivery, process problems, pauses, resumes, and enabling, checking, or disabling SkipHow itself. The owner keeps product decisions; the agent owns the technical lifecycle through verified completion and keeps the system small. If context was compacted while this skill governed, reopen this file before the next consequential action. Not for unrelated conversation.
- skiphow-bug
Find and fix a reported defect at its cause, including the sibling paths that share that cause. Use for bug fixes and recurring failures; a diagnosis-only request stays read-only. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
- skiphow-deploy-ready
Prepare agreed changes for delivery with deferred checks, review, commits, and authorized integration. Use for deploy-ready, release preparation, or clean at the end of an iteration session. Also carry an explicitly authorized deploy prod through verified release; preparation alone grants no production action. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
- skiphow-fast-fixes
Coordinate a live stream of local fixes and feedback before delivery, across interfaces, services, scripts, configuration, and artifacts. Use for bounded changes that may arrive while others run, with proportional delegation, focused checks, and recoverable shown results. A request to ship uses the delivery workflow. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
- skiphow-longrun
Deliver an accepted epic, milestone, or issue set through delegated slices that the CTO sequences, reviews in proportion to consequence, integrates, and carries to the agreed destination. Use for sustained execution and resumes of tracked work. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
- skiphow-plan
Prepare the whole requested scope for implementation with research, a completed product interview, a reviewed specification, bounded tasks, and an execution prompt suited to its size. Explicit invocation requests durable planning records; ordinary read-only planning stays read-only. Stop before implementation. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
- skiphow-simplify
Shrink an existing project by measuring it, removing code, tests, tooling, and records that do not pay for themselves, and delivering the cuts through the project's normal path. Use only when the owner asks to simplify, clean up, slim down, or shrink the project or codebase; not for ordinary changes, bug fixes, or a refactor inside other work, and not for a bare clean that ends an iteration session, which is a delivery request. If context was compacted while this workflow governed, reopen this file and the SkipHow CTO skill before the next consequential action.
