|---|---|---|
| **SaaS product** | 01-OS → 02-Brief → 05-Arch → 06-Build → 07-QA → 08-Deploy + all agents | `claude plugin install heymegabyte/claude-skills` |
| **API / backend** | 01-OS → 05-Arch → 06-Build → 08-Deploy → 13-Observability | `npm i @heymegabyte/claude-skills` |
| **Marketing site** | 01-OS → 09-Brand → 10-Design → 11-Motion → 12-Media | `npm i @heymegabyte/claude-skills` |
| **Features on existing project** | 01-OS → 06-Build → 07-QA (skill router auto-selects from context) | `claude plugin install heymegabyte/claude-skills` |
| **Just rules for your AI tool** | No skills — use a platform variant file directly | See [32 variants](#cross-platform-support-32-variants) below |

## Task Routing
The router loads the smallest useful subset per task — never the full 149 docs. See [`_router.md`](_router.md) for the complete routing table. This plugin ships 149 reference docs across 23 skill categories.
| When you say... | Skills loaded |
|-----------------|---------------|
| "Build a new project" | 02 → 03 → 05 → 06 → 09 |
| "Add a feature" | 05 → 06 → 07 |
| "Fix CI" | 07 → 08 (especially `gh-fix-ci`) |
| "Deploy this" | 08 (+ 09 if content changed) |
| "Polish the frontend" | 09 → 10 → 11 → 12 |
| "Set up billing" | 05/auth → 06/webhooks → 13/stripe |
| "Add analytics" | 13 (+ 09/social if publishing) |
| "Brainstorm ideas" | 03 → 14 |
## Ideal Prompts
Copy-paste as-is — each routes through the skill graph to a deployed, gate-cleared product. Shorter prompt = more inference; a domain name alone is enough.
### Build a SaaS from a domain
```
Build acmebilling.dev — recurring subscription billing for indie SaaS founders. Stripe-native, Clerk auth, Inngest for retry workflows.
```
- **Skills** — 01 → 02 → 03 → 05 → 06 → 07 → 08 → 13
- **Agents** — architect (Opus) → 5 parallel build agents → deploy-verifier + seo-auditor + visual-qa
- **Gate fires** — API Key Gate checks `STRIPE_*`, `CLERK_*`, `INNGEST_*`, `CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY` (global) before any scaffold
- **Output** — live Worker on `acmebilling.dev` with checkout, dashboard, webhook handler, Sentry + PostHog + GA4 wired
### Rebuild an existing site
```
Rebuild brianzalewski.com — pull current site from Wayback if dead, keep every page, modernize design, ship to CF Workers.
```
- **Skills** — 01 → 02 → 09 (brand extraction) → 15 (full corpus + media+video extraction + grammar audit) → 07 → 08
- **Agents** — architect → content-writer + visual-qa + seo-auditor
- **Gate** — every original URL = 200 or 301; logo retention; theme match; favicon set via real-favicongenerator
### Spin up a portfolio from one line
```
Make me a portfolio site at brian.dev — I'm a principal engineer, AI builder, Megabyte Labs founder.
```
- **Skills** — 01 → 02 (founder inference) → 09 → 10 → 11 → 12 → 14 (auto-suggests project tiles + impact stats) → 07 → 08
- **Optional pairing** — if a flagship SaaS exists, portfolio links to it as primary work
- **Output** — dark-first single-page with hero + work + writing + contact
### Local-business site (NAP + reviews + map)
```
Build paterson-dental.com — family dental practice in Paterson NJ, online booking, insurance verification, Spanish/English.
```
- **Skills** — 01 → 02 → 09 → 10 → 13 (local conversion patterns: phone_click, direction_click, booking_click)
- **Gate** — `GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY` + `GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY` required
- **Output** — full-width Maps embed, NAP schema.org `LocalBusiness`, OpenTable/Booksy embed, Twilio SMS booking
### Non-profit with donation flow
```
Build sjsk.org — community clothing distribution for SJSK in Newark, donor portal, impact counter, tax receipt PDFs.
```
- **Skills** — 01 → 02 → 09 → 13 (Stripe-first GiveDirectly UX)
- **Gate** — `STRIPE_*` keys
- **Output** — Donate CTA in nav, recurring + one-time, Resend tax receipts, impact counters with IO+rAF roll-in
### Brainstorm before you build
```
What's the highest-ROI thing I can ship this week? Read PORTFOLIO.md, scan current projects, propose 3 ideas with confidence scores.
```
- **Skills** — 14 (idea engine) → bounded web research → self-critique filter
- **Output** — 3 evidence-backed proposals with `apa_citation` per claim, viral coefficient + AI search visibility scoring, auto-implements `confidence ≥ 0.85` aligned ideas
### Add a feature to an existing project
```
Add a magic-link auth flow to acme.dev — passwordless email via Resend, Clerk session, redirect to /dashboard.
```
- **Skills** — 05 (architecture decision) → 06 (build slice) → 07 (Playwright E2E homepage-first)
- **Agents** — test-writer (failing test FIRST) → implementation → deploy-verifier
### Debug a wedged pipeline
```
projectsites.dev workflow stuck on site_id 47 for 3 hours. Diagnose, fix, retrigger.
```
- **Skills** — 08 (deploy/runtime) → 07
- **Rule loaded** — `failed-pipeline-protocol.md` (5 canonical failure modes)
- **Sequence** — detect via D1 query → diagnose root cause (CHECK constraint? timeout? OOM?) → fix → verify in isolation → mint session → retrigger via direct worker URL → background monitor
### Ship a content-driven blog at scale
```
Generate 50 programmatic SEO pages for acme.dev — integration|comparison|use-case|template|location templates, GEO-optimized, citations.
```
- **Skills** — 09 (pSEO 5 types + GEO + sourced facts via APA citations) → 06 → 07
- **Output** — 50 unique routes, no templated copy, every quantitative claim cites APA 7th source, Schema.org `Article` with `citation:CreativeWork[]`
### One-line magic
```
ghost.megabyte.space
```
- **Skills** — 01 (one-line prompt mode inference) → 02 → 05 → 09 → 10 → 11 → 12 → 07 → 08
- Domain alone routes to a complete product
- Gate fires
- Brand extracted from existing infrastructure
- Curated dark/neon aesthetic from `~/Snapchat/best/` 622-shot reference
- Logo from Ideogram
- Deployed to CF Workers
### Prompt patterns that work
| Phrase | Effect |
|--------|--------|
| `boil the lake` | Force complete-not-shortcut mode for the next decision |
| `parallel everything` | Decompose first, spawn 3-5 agents per phase |
| `skip api key gate` | Bypass key check (rare — deploys will likely 500) |
| `recommendations loop until zero` | Keep finding+fixing until no rec remains |
| `chain MCPs` | Use meta-orchestrator across 19+ services |
| `homepage-first` | Reset E2E flow to start at `/` and click through |
| `boil X, flag Y` | Do X completely; surface Y as issue |
| `make it shorter` | Reduce 40-60% (Brian's #1 most-used phrase, 670+ logged uses) |
| `the whole thing` | Never truncate — full file output |
| `Now ...` | Chain to previous task, don't reset context |
## Philosophy
- **Distribution > Technology** — The best tool nobody knows about is the worst tool. Auto-create repos for new skills. Integrate into every ecosystem. Broadcast widely.
- **Boil the Lake** — When completeness costs minutes more than a shortcut, do complete. Boil lakes, flag oceans.
- **TDD Always** — Failing test first → implement → pass. Real user flows. Homepage first. Click through UI. Never `page.goto()` for internal navigation.
- **One Person + AI = Twenty** — The barrier is gone. What remains is taste, judgment, and willingness to do the complete thing.
## Can You Make This Better?
Seriously — [open an issue](https://github.com/heymegabyte/claude-skills/issues/new?title=Improvement%20suggestion&body=I%20think%20this%20could%20be%20better%20if...) or submit a PR: more categories, sharper agent routing, missing templates, other stacks, better prompting patterns. Built something similar or stolen ideas from here? We want to hear it — the whole point is this gets better every day.
