docs-product-alignment
Audit and update docs/copilot/ documentation to accurately reflect current VS Code AI capabilities. Use when: competitive analysis reveals gaps, product launches new features, docs use outdated framing, or keyword coverage needs strengthening for discoverability by users and AI agents. Produces a gap analysis plus targeted edits across affected files.
release-note-reviewer
Review VS Code release notes for style, structure, and completeness. Use for reviewing Insiders or Stable release notes against writing guidelines. Produces an actionable list of recommendations.
create-skill
Guide for creating effective skills. This skill should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends your capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations.
create-plan
Generate detailed implementation plans for complex tasks. Creates comprehensive strategic plans in Markdown format with objectives, step-by-step implementation tasks using checkbox format, verification criteria, risk assessments, and alternative approaches. All plans MUST be validated using the included validation script. Use when users need thorough analysis and structured planning before implementation, when breaking down complex features into actionable steps, or when they explicitly ask for a plan, roadmap, or strategy. Strictly planning-focused with no code modifications.
post-forge-feature
Generate a Twitter/X post highlighting a Forge feature. Use when the user asks to write a tweet, create a Twitter post, or promote a ForgeCode feature on social media. The post always accompanies an attached video demonstrating the feature.
test-reasoning
Validate that reasoning parameters are correctly serialized and sent to provider APIs. Use when the user asks to test reasoning serialization, run reasoning tests, verify reasoning config fields, or check that ReasoningConfig maps correctly to provider-specific JSON (OpenRouter, Anthropic, GitHub Copilot, Codex).
execute-plan
Execute structured task plans with status tracking. Use when the user provides a plan file path in the format `plans/{current-date}-{task-name}-{version}.md` or explicitly asks you to execute a plan file.
github-pr-description
Generate and create pull request descriptions automatically using GitHub CLI. Use when the user asks to create a PR, generate a PR description, make a pull request, or submit changes for review. Analyzes git diff and commit history to create comprehensive, meaningful PR descriptions that explain what changed, why it matters, and how to test it.
create-github-issue
Create GitHub issues using GitHub CLI with support for templates, labels, assignees, milestones, and draft issues. Use when the user asks to create a GitHub issue, file a bug report, submit a feature request, or open an issue in a GitHub repository.
resolve-conflicts
Use this skill immediately when the user mentions merge conflicts that need to be resolved. Do not attempt to resolve conflicts directly - invoke this skill first. This skill specializes in providing a structured framework for merging imports, tests, lock files (regeneration), configuration files, and handling deleted-but-modified files with backup and analysis.
create-agent
Create new agents for the code-forge application. Agents are stored as .md files in the <cwd>/.forge/agents directory with YAML frontmatter (id, title, description, reasoning, tools, user_prompt) and markdown body containing agent instructions. Use when users need to add new agents, modify existing agents, or understand the agent file structure.
write-release-notes
Generate engaging, high-energy release notes for a given version tag. Fetches the release from GitHub, retrieves every linked PR's title and description, then synthesizes all changes into a polished, user-facing release note with an enthusiastic tone. Use when the user asks to write, generate, or create release notes for a version (e.g. "write release notes for v1.32.0", "generate release notes for the latest release", "create changelog for v2.0").
create-command
Create new commands for the code-forge application. Commands are stored as .md files in the <cwd>/.forge/commands directory with YAML frontmatter (name, description) and markdown body containing command steps. Use when users need to add new commands, modify existing commands, or understand the command file structure. Supports special command tags like <lint> and <test> for automated workflows.
github-pr-comments
Resolve inline code review comments on a GitHub PR. Use when asked to "resolve review comments", "address PR feedback", "fix PR comments", or "work through review comments". Fetches every inline comment with its surrounding code context, then applies each change systematically.
resolve-fixme
Find all FIXME comments across the codebase and attempt to resolve them. Use when the user asks to fix, resolve, or address FIXME comments, or when running the "fixme" command. Runs a script to locate every FIXME with surrounding context (2 lines before, 5 lines after) and then works through each one systematically.
add-module
Create a new module (bounded context) with proper project structure, permissions, DbContext, and registration. Use when adding a new business domain that needs its own entities and endpoints.
