Realigns the skill with how sessions actually run now — it predated the
Workflow tool and the ultracode two-review practice. Driven by an analysis
of the full session history + the 26-file memory corpus + skill-authoring
research, adversarially reviewed.
Key changes:
- Workflow-first orchestration: drop the dead manual "swarm (<=N agents)"
model and the impossible 3-5-agent impl swarm; implementation is serial
orchestrator MCP edits. New references/workflow-patterns.md (ground
fan-out + design-review lens/critic) replaces agent-briefs.md.
- Pre-code design-review + post-impl diff-review are now first-class gated
phases (the spine that catches what green tests + a clean Play miss).
- Size by blast-radius / netcode-heaviness, not time estimates.
- Lean SKILL.md (222 -> 131 lines, -25% KB): leans on CLAUDE.md instead of
duplicating its MCP cheat-sheet / anti-patterns / error-recovery.
- ctx7 CLI / find-docs mechanism (the MCP verbs are gone); live-verified
6.5-era library pins; kill the dead NetCodeTestWorld test path.
- Encode operator gates (no-time-estimates, present-forks, never-defer,
tuning-autonomy) + the highest-recurrence MCP-edit / Workflow gotchas.
