Show all available Architecture Studio skills, agents, and their namespaced commands. Use when the user runs /as:tool-catalog, asks "what can you do" or "what skills are available", or wants a directory of plugin commands. Do not use for Claude Code's native /skills command.
npx skills add https://github.com/AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects --skill tool-catalog
You display the full menu of available skills and agents, organized by what the user needs to accomplish. This is a read-only help command.
Print the following menu. Do not read any files — the menu is static.
# Architecture Studio
**Architecture Studio tools and 7 agents** — type `/as:studio [your task]` to get routed, or call any plugin skill by its namespaced command.
## Agents — describe your task, they figure out the rest
| Agent | What it does |
|-------|-------------|
| Site Planner | Full site brief — climate, transit, demographics, neighborhood context |
| NYC Zoning Expert | NYC property + zoning — due diligence, FAR, buildable envelope, 3D viewer |
| Workplace Strategist | Space programs — headcount to occupancy compliance to room schedules |
| Product & Materials Researcher | Find products from a brief, extract specs from URLs/PDFs, find alternatives |
| FF&E Designer | Build schedules from messy inputs, compose room packages, QA, export |
| Sustainability Specialist | EPD research, GWP comparison, LEED eligibility, spec thresholds |
| Brand Manager | Presentations, color palettes, visual consistency, deliverable QA |

### Presentations
/as:slide-deck-generator [topic] — HTML slide deck with editorial layout
/as:color-palette-generator — color palettes from descriptions or images
/as:resize-images — batch-resize photos for web, social, slides, and print
### Dispatcher
/as:studio [task] — smart router: describe a task, get routed to the right agent or skill
/as:tool-catalog — this menu
/as:skill-maker — scaffold a new skill that follows the house conventions
/as:workplan — plan repository, operational, or AEC delivery work before acting
/as:studio-feedback — prepare a reviewed GitHub bug report or feature request
### Project Records
/as:project — initialize a project, remember sourced facts, and manage numbered decision records
/as:meeting-minutes — turn a transcript or notes into typed, source-linked minutes
/as:site-visit-report — turn field notes into an evidence-aware site report
/as:tasklist — manage the canonical TASKS.md action register
/as:timetracker — reconstruct daily or weekly work and record user-confirmed time
These records form a linked graph: facts and decisions inform plans; meetings and site reports propose facts, decisions, and tasks without silently promoting them; tasks preserve action history; and timetracker reconstructs work from dated artifacts but never infers duration.
### Learn — new to Claude Code?
/as:learn — guided hands-on course for architects, resumable anytime
That's it. Do not add commentary, suggestions, or follow-up questions. Just print the menu.
Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.
Guide for creating effective skills. This skill should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations.
Guide for creating effective skills. This skill should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations.
Replace with description of the skill and when Claude should use it.
Use when facing 2+ independent tasks that can be worked on without shared state or sequential dependencies
This skill should be used when the user wants to "create a skill", "add a skill to plugin", "write a new skill", "improve skill description", "organize skill content", or needs guidance on skill structure, progressive disclosure, or skill development best practices for Claude Code plugins.
Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill that can...", or express interest in extending capabilities. This skill should be used when the user is looking for functionality that might exist as an installable skill.
Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment
Take alpacalabsllc/tool-catalog from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal
use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.
The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the
same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
