What's Changed

Skill Quality Improvements

WHY reasoning added to 34 directives across 7 skill files — Following Anthropic's skill-creator guidelines, bare ALWAYS/NEVER directives now explain the consequence of skipping, so Claude understands why the rule exists rather than just following it mechanically.

  • flow-parallel (9): Gather inputs, WBS content, file paths, 6 prohibitions (Task tool, WBS skip, stagger timing, WP limit, monitoring, wave ordering)
  • flow-discover (5): Context detection, PROHIBITED block, DO NOT substitute, banner display
  • flow-define (5): PROHIBITED block, DO NOT substitute, context capture, banner display
  • flow-deliver (5): PROHIBITED block, DO NOT substitute, context detection, banner display
  • flow-develop (5): PROHIBITED block, DO NOT substitute, context detection, banner display
  • flow-spec (4): Gather inputs, PROHIBITED block, DO NOT substitute, completeness validation
  • skill-validate (4): Extract issues, interactive questions, simulation, quality scoring

24 skill descriptions improved for better triggering — More specific language helps Claude Code match user intent to the correct skill.

5 redundant "This is NOT optional" directives removed — These were duplicative with execution_mode: enforced in frontmatter.

Test Results

  • 30/30 test suites pass (66 individual tests)
  • All enforcement pattern assertions preserved
  • OpenClaw registry in sync (88 entries)
