Automate application deployment to cloud platforms and servers. Use when setting up CI/CD pipelines, deploying to Docker/Kubernetes, or configuring cloud infrastructure. Handles GitHub Actions, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Vercel, and deployment best practices.
Manage major dependency version upgrades with compatibility analysis, staged rollout, and comprehensive testing. Use when upgrading framework versions, updating major dependencies, or managing breaking changes in libraries.
Create architectural decision records (ADRs), system documentation, API documentation, and operational runbooks. Use when capturing design decisions, documenting system architecture, creating API references, or writing operational procedures.
Unified platform operations guidance for CI/CD pipeline design, deployment strategies, observability, SLI/SLOs, and incident-ready rollouts. Use when building release workflows, production monitoring, or reliability controls.
Orchestrates multi-agent task execution using a Royal Navy squadron metaphor — from mission planning through parallel work coordination to stand-down. Use when work needs parallel agent orchestration, tight task coordination with quality gates, structured delegation with progress checkpoints, or a documented decision log.
Version management, release verification, and deployment procedures for software releases. Includes semver guidance, version consistency checks, and platform-specific constraints.
Creates AI agent task management structure with feature backlog (ai/tasks/), TDD enforcement, and progress tracking. Use when setting up agent-foreman, initializing feature-driven development, creating task backlog, or enabling TDD mode. Triggers on 'init harness', 'setup feature tracking', 'create feature backlog', 'enable strict TDD', 'initialize agent-foreman'.
Use when configuring Maven plugins, setting up common plugins like compiler, surefire, jar, or creating custom plugin executions.
Use when working with Maven build phases, goals, profiles, or customizing the build process for Java projects.
Use when managing Maven dependencies, resolving dependency conflicts, configuring BOMs, or optimizing dependency trees in Java projects.
Review, merge, and release dependency update PRs. Merges green dependabot PRs, closes stale/failing ones, runs full verification, and publishes a patch release.
Maintain and upgrade the bgruening/docker-galaxy project: bump Galaxy/Ubuntu versions, update Ansible roles and scheduler support, adjust startup/CI/tests, and manage CVMFS.
Add the Retry mixin for automatic retry with exponential backoff on action failure. Covers using Retry alone for limited retries, combining with UnlimitedRetries for infinite retries, and configuring retry behavior.
Bernard Ladenthin's personal Java Test-Driven Development skill — version 1.0.0 — Red → Green → Refactor workflow with project-independent conventions
Safely rebases the current feature branch onto a target branch (default: main) with automatic stash handling and conflict detection.
Set up a Docker container for running Nextflow training examples. Handles basic setup, Docker-outside-of-Docker (DooD) for containerized processes, ARM Mac platform emulation, and troubleshooting. Use when you need to run Nextflow examples in a consistent environment.
Use this skill after completing implementation to run the full post-implementation validation workflow: structured review, mutation testing, self-check, and full build.
Use this skill when upgrading a Maven dependency, GitHub Action, or other versioned dependency in this repository.
Comprehensive GitHub code review with AI-powered swarm coordination
Create and run custom background analysis workers with composable phases. Use when you need automated code analysis, security scanning, pattern learning, or API documentation generation.
Run all automated checks for the project (LOCAL + PROD) and provide a unified summary.
