Guides Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR) with cacheComponents enabled. Implements 'use cache', cacheLife(), cacheTag(), revalidateTag(), static/dynamic optimization, and cache debugging.
Migrates code, prompts, and API calls from Claude Sonnet 4.0/4.5 or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5, updating model strings on Anthropic, AWS, GCP, Azure platforms.
Details PluginEval's skill quality evaluation: 3 layers (static, LLM judge), 10 dimensions, rubrics, formulas, anti-patterns, badges. Use to interpret scores, improve triggering, calibrate thresholds.
The data backbone for Foreman_OS. This skill owns the project intelligence store, the report history log, and all operational data. Every other skill reads from and writes to the data layer through the patterns defined here.
All JSON files are stored in folder_mapping.ai_output (typically AI - Project Brain/). If folder_mapping is not yet set up, fall back to the user's working directory root.
IMPORTANT — File Location Rule: When searching for these files, always check AI - Project Brain/ first, then fall back to the project root. When saving, always save to folder_mapping.ai_output if available.

When a skill needs project data, it should only load the specific files it needs — never all 28 files at once.
When the user describes work being performed, pull the relevant cross-section:
| User mentions | Files to read | Retrieve |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete work | specs-quality.json, plans-spatial.json, schedule.json | Concrete spec sections, mix designs, testing frequency, cold/hot weather thresholds, hold points, compaction reqs if SOG |

When the user mentions a location, resolve it from plans-spatial.json:
| User says | Resolve to |
|---|---|
| "east side" | Building area with "east" in name → grid lines → floor levels for that area |
| "second floor" | Floor level "Level 2" → rooms on that level → building areas at that level |
| "by the elevator" | Central core area → grid lines for core → floor level |
| "at Grid C" | All building areas that include Grid C → activities at that location |
When the user mentions a sub (even casually), match from directory.json:
| User says | Match to |
|---|---|
| "Walker" | Walker Construction → Excavation/Sitework → scope details → schedule dates |
| "the electrician" | Sub with trade = "Electrical" → company name → foreman → scope |
| "HVAC guys" | Sub with trade containing "HVAC" or "Mechanical" → full record |
The power of the data layer is connecting related information across files. When serving data, always include cross-references:
A subcontractor is linked to their scope, which maps to spec sections, which have testing and inspection requirements. When "Walker Construction" is on site doing excavation:
directory.jsonspecs-quality.jsonspecs-quality.jsonspecs-quality.jsonschedule.json for earthwork milestonesA location mention cascades through spatial data in plans-spatial.json:
specs-quality.json)When documenting work, check if today's weather affects that work:
