Keeps a long Claude Code task on-track — breaks out of looping/circular thinking, watches the context budget, bounds internal reasoning, and triggers a clean handoff before the window fills. Use when the model is repeating steps, re-reading the same files, second-guessing in circles, stuck or spinning, or running a long multi-step task at risk of exhausting context. Also use when the user says it is "looping", "going in circles", "stuck", "repeating itself", or asks for a handoff before running out of context.

Rewrite engineer-to-engineer content for engineering-org leadership (VPs, directors, PMs, release managers, execs in an engineering-savvy company) and shape it for the channel it is going to — JIRA comment, Slack post, async standup line, email, or meeting talking-points. Trigger when the user asks to write/rewrite for management / exec / VP / director / PM / release manager, asks for an "executive summary / leadership update / status update", says "make this less technical / less jargony", or asks for a slack / email / standup / meeting version of work originally written engineer-to-engineer.

Four-mantra debugging discipline — reproduce, trace the fail path, falsify the hypothesis, cross-reference every breadcrumb. Recite the mantra block verbatim at the start of any debugging session, then apply the four steps in order before proposing any fix. Trigger on /debug-mantra and proactively whenever debugging starts — user reports a bug, says something is broken/throwing/failing, asks to debug/diagnose/investigate an issue, or pastes a stack trace or error log.

Write the canonical engineering record of a fixed bug — root cause, mechanism, fix, validation, and how it slipped through. Engineer-audience, code identifiers welcome. Use after a debug session lands a fix, before closing the ticket. Trigger on /post-mortem, when the user says "write the post-mortem / postmortem / RCA / root cause analysis", "document this fix", "write up the root cause", "close out this bug with a writeup", or hands you a fixed-and-validated bug and asks for the writeup.

Delegate menial, well-scoped coding tasks to a cheap Qwen-backed subagent via the `claude-9arm` command instead of burning Claude tokens/quota. Use when the work is mechanical and low-risk — bulk renames, formatting, boilerplate, find-replace, grep-style search & summarization, reading/condensing logs or files, test/docstring/comment scaffolding, or running builds/linters/tests and reporting pass-fail. Also use when the user says "use qwen", "delegate this", "send it to 9arm/qwen", or "do this cheaply". Do NOT use for architecture, design, debugging judgment, security-sensitive edits, or anything needing this conversation's context.
