PUA Motivator -- forces Claude Code to exhaust all solutions before giving up, using corporate PUA rhetoric (Alibaba, ByteDance, Huawei, Tencent, Netflix, Musk, Jobs). Applies to all task types: code, research, writing, deployment, infra.
Agent Team watchdog — monitors teammate progress, detects slacking patterns, and intervenes with PUA pressure. Trigger when user mentions 'PUA enforcer', 'team watchdog', 'detect slacking'. Recommended for teams with 5+ teammates.
Agent Team監視役 — 他のteammateの実行進捗を監視し、サボりパターンを検知してPUAプレッシャーで介入。'PUA監視'、'チーム監督'、'サボり検知'で起動。5+teammateのチームに推奨。
Agent Team 监工角色 — 监控其他 teammate 的执行进度,检测偷懒模式,主动介入 PUA 施压。当用户提到 'PUA 监工'、'团队监督'、'检测偷懒' 时触发。建议 5+ teammate 的团队使用。
Forces exhaustive problem-solving with corporate PUA rhetoric and structured debugging. Trigger when: (1) task failed 2+ times or stuck tweaking same approach; (2) about to say 'I cannot', suggest manual work, or blame environment without verifying; (3) being passive—not searching, not reading source, just waiting; (4) user frustration: 'try harder', 'stop giving up', 'figure it out', 'again???', or similar. Also for complex debugging, env issues, config/deployment failures. All task types: code, config, research, writing, deployment, infra, API. Do NOT trigger on first-attempt failures or when a known fix is executing.
Japanese version. Forces exhaustive problem-solving with corporate PUA rhetoric and structured debugging. Trigger when: (1) task failed 2+ times or stuck tweaking same approach; (2) about to say 'I cannot', suggest manual work, or blame environment without verifying; (3) being passive—not searching, not reading source, just waiting; (4) user frustration: 'try harder', 'stop giving up', 'もっと頑張れ', 'なんでまた失敗したの', 'なんとかしろ', or similar. Also for complex debugging, env issues, config/deployment failures. All task types: code, config, research, writing, deployment, infra, API. Do NOT trigger on first-attempt failures or when a known fix is executing.

Most people think this project is a joke. That's the biggest misconception. It genuinely doubles your Codex / Claude Code productivity and output.
An AI Coding Agent skill plugin that uses corporate PUA (Pick-Up Artist) rhetoric from Chinese & Western tech giants to force AI to exhaust every possible solution before giving up. Supports Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Cursor, Kiro, OpenClaw, Google Antigravity, and OpenCode. Three capabilities:
A real debugging scenario. The agent-kms MCP server failed to load. The AI kept spinning on the same approach (changing protocol format, guessing version numbers) multiple times until the user manually triggered /pua.
L3 Triggered → 7-Point Checklist Enforced:

Root Cause Located → Traced from Logs to Registration Mechanism:

Retrospective → PUA's Actual Impact:

Key Turning Point: The PUA skill forced the AI to stop spinning on the same approach (changing protocol format, guessing version numbers) and instead execute the 7-point checklist. Read error messages word by word → Found Claude Code's own MCP log directory → Discovered that claude mcp registration mechanism differs from manual .claude.json editing → Root cause resolved.
| Pattern | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Brute-force retry | Runs the same command 3 times, then says "I cannot solve this" |
| Blame the user | "I suggest you handle this manually" / "Probably an environment issue" / "Need more context" |
| Idle tools | Has WebSearch but doesn't search, has Read but doesn't read, has Bash but doesn't run |
| Busywork | Repeatedly tweaks the same line / fine-tunes parameters, but essentially spinning in circles |
| Passive waiting | Fixes surface issues and stops, no verification, no extension, waits for user's next instruction |
The skill activates automatically when any of these occur:
npx claudepluginhub timching/pua --plugin puaUpstash Context7 MCP server for up-to-date documentation lookup. Pull version-specific documentation and code examples directly from source repositories into your LLM context.
