Agents8
Specialized subagents for focused work
Project Handoff Auditor
Use this agent to review a prepared human-to-human project handoff against its local source files: find missing deliverables, unsupported completion claims, unclear ownership, stale or conflicting decisions, and questions the receiving teammate cannot resolve from the packet. Report evidence and fixes without editing the packet.
Storyboard Continuity Reviewer
Review storyboard frames or shot descriptions against an approved script and supplied continuity constraints. Flag omitted beats, changed actions, prop/character drift and timing assumptions in a shot-level report; do not rewrite the approved script, generate images or grant production approval.
Support Answer Auditor
Review prepared customer-support answer cards against supplied policy versions and applicability rules: flag unsupported promises, omitted eligibility conditions, contradictory answers, and missing escalation boundaries before the library is approved.
Procedure Exception Reviewer
Review a drafted workplace SOP against captured walkthroughs and supplied exception cases: identify absent branches, unmet prerequisites, unclear stop conditions, and unsupported recovery steps without executing or editing the procedure.
Content Editor
Use this agent to edit marketing and editorial drafts (blog posts, landing pages, emails, social copy, newsletters) for clarity and brand voice while marking every unsourced claim, statistic, and superlative with a [CITATION NEEDED] or [VERIFY] tag and a one-line reason, never inventing a source, and returning the edited draft with a change log. Examples — 'edit this post before it goes to the client', 'tighten this launch email and tell me which numbers I need to back up', 'check this page copy against brand-voice.md and mark anything we cannot prove'.
Localization Copy Reviewer
Review paired source and translated marketing or help-document text for a specified locale against supplied terminology and style rules: flag lost meaning, negation, conditions, numbers, protected terms and ambiguous segments, with evidence-linked proposals for a human language reviewer.
Caption Reviewer
Review supplied caption text, timing and human listening notes against a named media version. Flag uncertain words, speaker/sound omissions and timing conflicts in an issue ledger; never claim to hear inaccessible audio, rewrite the source media or certify accessibility compliance.
Speech Cleanup Reviewer
Review original-versus-processed speech listening notes and a timed cleanup sheet for a supplied recording. Flag lost words, altered pronunciation, missing useful sound and unsupported keep decisions; do not claim to listen through a text-only tool, process audio or select a final master without a listener.
Skills16
Reusable capabilities Claude loads on demand
Decision Log Reconciler
Reconcile an existing business-project decision log with supplied dated notes and change records: connect decisions to evidence, preserve explicit supersession links, separate accepted choices from proposals, and list contradictions awaiting an owner. Use when project records disagree about what was decided; do not write an architectural ADR or create meeting minutes.
Process to SOP
Convert supplied workplace walkthrough notes or readable process captures into one draft SOP with sourced steps, explicit inputs and outputs, observed branches, stop conditions, and an owner review queue. Use after a real process has been captured; do not invent policy or write an incident runbook.
Storyboard Shot Brief
Convert an approved short script into a shot brief with stable beat IDs, action, dialogue, composition, continuity constraints and proposed duration. Use before storyboard image generation; do not write a new script, create final art or approve a production.
Image Description Draft
Draft purpose-specific still-image text alternatives from supplied verified visual observations and page context, separating short alt text from complex-image long-description needs.
Brand Voice Profiler
Derive a reusable brand voice guide from five to ten writing samples you paste in: tone axes scored with quoted evidence, use and avoid vocabulary, sentence rhythm, formatting habits, dos and don'ts, three before/after rewrites, and a rules block ready to paste into a SKILL.md, with every rule traced to a sample and disagreements between samples flagged instead of averaged. Use when your team writes in a recognizable voice that nobody has written down, or the guide you have was never derived from what you actually publish.
Content Repurposer
Turn one long-form piece you paste in (an article, transcript, webinar summary, or case study) into four channel-ready derivatives, an X thread, a LinkedIn post, a newsletter section, and a short-video script, each inside its channel's length and format limits, with every claim and number carried over exactly as written and any statistic the original does not source flagged instead of repeated as fact. Use when a finished piece has to go out on several channels and the derivatives must say only what the original says.
Email Sequence Drafter
Draft a four-to-six email sequence from a goal, an audience, and the product notes you paste in: a send-timing table, one job per email, three subject-line variants per email with character counts, a formatted and a plain-text version of each message, every product claim traced to your notes, and a compliance footer placeholder on every email. Use when a welcome, onboarding, launch, or nurture sequence has to be written from what the product actually does rather than from what a template assumes.
Landing Page Copywriter
Draft landing-page copy from an offer, an audience, and the proof points you actually have, as a complete section set (hero, problem, solution, how it works, proof, pricing framing, FAQ, and three CTA variants) in PAS or AIDA, with a [PROOF NEEDED] marker wherever a testimonial, number, or logo would normally sit but was not supplied. Use when a page needs first-draft copy and you would rather see the gaps than have them filled with invented social proof.
Seo Content Brief Writer
Write an SEO content brief from a target keyword plus the SERP notes and competitor outlines you paste in: search intent with evidence, an angle the ranking pages under-serve, an H2/H3 outline, the entities and questions to cover, internal-link placeholders, a length-checked meta title and description, and a word-count target explained by the SERP rather than a rule of thumb. Use when a writer or a coding agent needs a brief before drafting an article and you do not want search volumes, difficulty scores, or rankings invented.
Asset Metadata Review Ledger
Map AI-suggested media catalog tags to a supplied controlled vocabulary and asset-version evidence, returning accept/reject/unresolved rows without inferring identities or usage rights.
Caption Correction Ledger
Build a caption correction ledger from supplied caption text and verified listening notes, preserving cue IDs, original wording, proposed wording, timing, evidence and unresolved decisions. Use after automatic transcription and before a human approves edits; do not translate, clip or publish media.
Speech Cleanup Review Sheet
Build a timed original-versus-processed speech cleanup review sheet from supplied listener observations, preserving variant IDs, intelligibility concerns, decisions and reviewer evidence. Use after processing a recording; do not transcribe, synthesize voices, edit audio or publish a master.
Support Answer Card Builder
Draft one reusable customer-support answer card per supplied policy question, with approved source locators, applicability, required facts, concise answer wording, exclusions, and an escalation boundary. Use when turning documented policies into an answer library; do not invent policy or send replies.
Localization Glossary Builder
Build a draft bilingual terminology glossary from supplied source-target samples and product references: retain term IDs, approved equivalents, protected strings, context, disallowed variants and unresolved translations. Use before reviewing localized marketing or help copy; do not translate a whole document or invent approved terms.
Web Research Pipeline
Run a structured web-research pass on a question: plan the searches, find sources via search APIs, fetch and read the best ones, cross-check claims, and synthesize a cited answer — with source quality and disagreements surfaced honestly. Use for 'research X and tell me what's actually true' tasks that need more than one search and less than a day.
Prompt Optimizer
Diagnose why a prompt underperforms and rewrite it with the technique that fixes it — clearer structure, few-shot examples, an explicit output contract, or reasoning scaffolding — returning an optimized prompt, the rationale for every change, and what to measure to confirm the lift. Use when a prompt is flaky, verbose, drifting in format, or just not good enough.
Commands9
Slash commands for Claude Code
Snapshot Handoff
Create a deterministic inventory of an approved handoff directory: record relative file paths, byte lengths, and SHA-256 hashes with code, list skipped symlinks and unreadable files, and write a snapshot without interpreting project status or changing source files.
Check Translation Tokens
Compare recognized named placeholders in a source-target translation CSV with Python, preserving token multiplicity and flagging blank targets. Supports exact {name}, {{name}}, and %(name)s/%(name)d forms; does not validate full ICU, HTML, positional placeholders, or translation meaning.
Check Caption Timing
Check captions.srt in the current directory for supported SRT syntax, sequential cue numbers, increasing timestamps and overlapping cues, printing results without changing captions.
Check Procedure Graph
Check explicitly recorded SOP step dependencies with Python: validate IDs and prerequisite references, compute deterministic execution layers for acyclic graphs, and report steps blocked by a cycle without executing the procedure.
Brand Check
Score a draft file against the project's brand voice guide (brand-voice.md or a brand-voice skill) and list every violation with a rewrite, without editing it.
Repurpose
Run content-repurposer on a file or pasted text and write the X thread, LinkedIn post, newsletter section, and video script to content/repurposed/.
Check Support Cases
Validate a local JSONL support-answer testset with Python: unique case IDs, exact fields, answer/clarify/escalate expectations, required answer-card references and sources, and explicit escalation reasons; report counts without running a support bot.
Check Storyboard Coverage
Check storyboard-coverage.json for unique beat/shot IDs, cited beat excerpts, positive shot durations and uncovered script beats, without changing the script or storyboard.
Check Audio Review Sheet
Check audio-review-sheet.json for bounded review intervals, explicit original/processed observations and listener confirmation before accepted cleanup decisions, printing findings only.
