Guidance for improving the Windmill AI chat (copilot), especially global mode — tools, prompts, and context-window discipline. Use when editing chat tools, system prompts, or tool-result shapes under frontend/src/lib/components/copilot/chat, or when changing how the chat manages its context window.

Author and run black-box benchmark cases for the Windmill AI generation modes (flow/app/script/cli/global) in ai_evals/. Use when adding or changing eval cases, or when running before/after benchmarks for AI chat / copilot changes.

MUST use when using the CLI, including debugging job failures and inspecting run history via `wmill job`.

Shared vocabulary for designing deep modules. Use when the user wants to design or improve a module's interface, find deepening opportunities, decide where a seam goes, make code more testable or AI-navigable, or when another skill needs the deep-module vocabulary.

Create a git commit with conventional commit format. MUST use anytime you want to commit changes.

Build and sharpen a project's domain model. Use when the user wants to pin down domain terminology or a ubiquitous language, or when another skill needs to maintain the domain model.

Grill the user relentlessly about a plan, decision, or idea. Use when the user wants to stress-test their thinking, or uses any 'grill' trigger phrases.

A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design.

Scan a codebase for deepening opportunities, present them as a visual HTML report, then grill through whichever one you pick.

Code review the current PR (or branch diff against main) for bugs, security, and AGENTS.md compliance. MUST use when asked to review code.

Run the CI Codex PR review locally against this branch's unpushed work (committed + uncommitted) before pushing. Same policy and reasoning effort as the codex-pr-review GitHub action, on a newer model.

Guidance for adding native trigger services to Windmill. Use when implementing or modifying native trigger integrations across the backend and frontend.

Open a draft pull request on GitHub and drive CI review rounds until it is ready. MUST use when you want to create/open a PR.

MUST use when opening the Windmill dev page / visual preview of a flow, script, or app. Triggers on words like preview, open, navigate to, visualize, see the flow/app/script, and after writing a flow/script/app for visual verification.

MUST use when creating raw apps.

End-of-session reflection. Reviews friction encountered during the session and proposes updates to docs/ to capture lessons learned.

MUST use when managing resources.

Rust coding guidelines for the Windmill backend. MUST use when writing or modifying Rust code in the backend directory.

MUST use when configuring schedules.

Svelte coding guidelines for the Windmill frontend. MUST use when writing or modifying code in the frontend directory.
