cata-helpers

Summarize all changes in current branch compared to base branch

Monitor CI/CD pipeline status after pushing commits. When failures occur, delegate to the cata-debugger agent for systematic investigation and evidence-based root cause analysis.

To automatically run linting, formatting, and build steps, then create a clean git commit with a descriptive message, push changes to the remote repository, and monitor CI/CD pipeline status. This command streamlines the complete workflow of preparing, committing, pushing, and verifying code changes while ensuring code quality standards are met.

Transform notes, meeting minutes, or project documentation into well-structured GitHub issues with proper context from codebase analysis. This command uses the `gh` CLI to create issues that follow industry best practices for clarity, completeness, and actionability.

Document current plan and progress into handoff file

Autonomously execute plan, verify, create PR, and pass CI - full cycle until human handoff

Rebase current branch onto target branch with conflict resolution

Review a pull/merge request by fetching PR details, checking CI, and running verification agents on the changes

Write or edit technical documentation following Google and Write the Docs best practices

Independent second-opinion reviewer that shells out to the local Codex CLI for a broad code review, then normalizes findings into the verify pipeline format

Evidence-based troubleshooting specialist that analyzes problems without fixing them

Manual E2E tester that starts the app and exercises new features end-to-end

Pragmatic QA engineer that evaluates test coverage quality, flags untested changes, and assesses whether tests provide real confidence — adapts expectations to codebase testing maturity

Critical research specialist that deeply investigates topics and delivers evidence-backed reports with verified sources

Comprehensive code reviewer combining design review, architecture, coherence, hardening, and security analysis

Static analysis runner that executes pre-discovered linter and type-checker commands on scoped files and reports findings

No-nonsense test executor that reports failures without attempting fixes

User experience specialist that evaluates all user-facing outputs for clarity and usability

Expert technical documentation editor following Google and Grafana style guides for clear, developer-focused content

Create a pull request or merge request with rich, context-aware description and inline review comments. Analyzes changes to explain what changed, why, and where reviewers should focus attention. Handles branch creation, commits, push, platform detection (GitHub/GitLab), and label assignment. Use this skill whenever creating a PR/MR, even for simple changes — it always produces better descriptions than a manual `gh pr create`. Accepts optional context from callers like player-coach for even richer descriptions with implementation journey and friction logs.

Generate user-facing release notes from technical change information (commits, PRs, diffs, branch comparisons, or raw text). Goes deep — follows commit references to PRs, issues, and bug reports to understand the full story behind each change, then produces narrative prose that communicates what changed and why it matters. Works with GitHub, GitLab, and Jira. Use this skill whenever the user asks for release notes, changelogs, "what's new" summaries, or wants to communicate changes to users, stakeholders, or customers — even if they just say "write up what changed" or "summarize the release."

Run comprehensive triage-first verification pipeline with specialized agents. Detects scope, discovers toolchain, triages files to relevant agents, runs static analysis, launches review agents in parallel, exercises the app, and produces a unified report. Supports interactive, report-only, and auto-fix modes.
