ai-factory

Set up agent context for a project. Analyzes tech stack, installs relevant skills from skills.sh, generates custom skills, and configures MCP servers. Use when starting new project, setting up AI context, or asking "set up project", "configure AI", "what skills do I need".

Generate architecture guidelines for the project. Analyzes tech stack from DESCRIPTION.md, recommends an architecture pattern, and creates .ai-factory/ARCHITECTURE.md. Use when setting up project architecture, asking "which architecture", or after /aif setup.

Archive completed plans and roadmap milestones. Moves finished plans to the archive directory and optionally trims closed milestones from ROADMAP.md. Use when user says "archive plans", "clean up plans", "archive completed", or "trim roadmap".

Code quality guidelines and best practices for writing clean, maintainable code. Covers naming, structure, error handling, testing, and code review standards. Use when writing code, reviewing, refactoring, or asking "how should I name this", "best practice for", "clean code".

Analyze project and generate or enhance build automation file (Makefile, Taskfile.yml, Justfile, Magefile.go). If a build file already exists, improves it by adding missing targets and best practices. Use when user says "generate makefile", "create taskfile", "add justfile", "setup mage", or "build automation".

Generate CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI) with linting, static analysis, tests, security. Use when user says "ci", "setup ci", "github actions", "gitlab ci", "pipeline".

Create conventional commit messages by analyzing staged changes. Generates semantic commit messages following the Conventional Commits specification. Use when user says "commit", "save changes", or "create commit".

Distill books, documents, folders, or URLs into compact, practical Agent Skills. Use when source material should become either one reusable skill package or a split set of focused skills, each with a concise SKILL.md plus detailed references and examples.

Analyze project and generate Docker configuration: Dockerfile (multi-stage dev/prod), compose.yml, compose.override.yml (dev), compose.production.yml (hardened), and .dockerignore. Includes production security audit. Use when user says "dockerize", "add docker", "docker compose", "containerize", or "setup docker".

Generate and maintain project documentation. Creates a lean README as a landing page with detailed docs pages split by topic in the configured docs directory. Use when user says "create docs", "write documentation", "update docs", "generate readme", or "document project".

Self-improve AI Factory skills based on project context, accumulated patches, and codebase patterns. Analyzes what went wrong, what works, and enhances skills to prevent future issues. Use when you want to make AI smarter for your project.

Enter explore mode to investigate ideas, systems, problems, and requirements before planning. Use ultra mode, explicitly or through config, when the user wants a durable adaptive research bundle with an index and only the justified C4, ADR, or dependency artifacts.

Fix a bug or problem. Supports fix-now or plan-first; no args executes FIX_PLAN.md. When a regression check is needed, reproduce first, then implement and rerun it. Adds logging and suggests extra coverage.

Reliability gate for answers. Forces evidence-based reasoning, explicit uncertainty, and “insufficient information” instead of guesses. Use when user says “be 100% sure”, “no hallucinations”, “only if verified”, “grounded answer”, or when stakes are high.

A hello world skill provided by the aif-ext-hello extension. Demonstrates extension-provided skills.

Execute implementation tasks from the current plan. Works through tasks sequentially, marks completion, and preserves progress for continuation across sessions. Use when user says "implement", "start coding", "execute plan", or "continue implementation".

Refine an existing implementation plan with a second iteration. Re-analyzes the codebase for gaps, missing tasks, and wrong dependencies. Use after /aif-plan or to improve an /aif-fix plan. Optional +check flag validates refinements via a fresh-context subagent.

Run a strict multi-iteration Reflex Loop with phases (PLAN, PRODUCE||PREPARE, EVALUATE, CRITIQUE, REFINE) to improve an artifact until quality gates pass or iteration limits are reached. Use when user asks for iterative refinement, quality-gated generation, or "generate -> critique -> refine" loops.

Plan a feature or task in fast, full, or ultra mode. Ultra creates an indexed multi-file bundle with deeply specified phases for execution by a smaller model. Use for "plan", "new feature", "start feature", "create tasks", or exhaustive implementation planning.

QA workflow for testing a feature or task implementation. Analyzes changes, produces test plans, and describes concrete test scenarios. Use when user says "test this", "write test plan", "what should I test", or "QA this branch".
