Convert existing projects into Apify Actors - serverless cloud programs. Actorize JavaScript/TypeScript (SDK with Actor.init/exit), Python (async context manager), or any language (CLI wrapper). Use when migrating code to Apify, wrapping CLI tools as Actors, or adding Actor SDK to existing projects.

Generate output schemas (dataset_schema.json, output_schema.json, key_value_store_schema.json) for an Apify Actor by analyzing its source code. Use when creating or updating Actor output schemas.

Integrate Apify into an existing JavaScript/TypeScript or Python application using the apify-client package. Use when adding web scraping, automation, or data extraction capabilities to an existing app via the Apify API.

>- Adds, migrates, or updates n8n Public API v1 endpoints with @PublicApiController — public DTOs, API-key and RBAC scopes, cursor pagination, OpenAPI + coverage wiring, and tests. Use when working under packages/cli/src/public-api/v1/ or when exposing an existing service through /api/v1.

>- Guides adding, changing, and reviewing telemetry through the `@n8n/telemetry` event registry. Use when working on telemetry, analytics, tracking, product events, `track()` calls, or RudderStack/PostHog product events, in frontend or backend code — and whenever you need to find which registered telemetry events exist, what an event means, or what properties it carries.

Use the n8n CLI to manage workflows, credentials, executions, and more on an n8n instance. Use when the user asks to interact with n8n, automate workflows, manage credentials, or operate their instance from the command line.

>- Load before calling build-workflow. Default path for all single-workflow and workflow-local data tables. Write or edit a workspace source file, run workflow-sdk validate via workspace_execute_command, then call build-workflow with filePath. When the workflow creates or writes Data Tables, load data-table-manager first, then this skill. Do not load planning or create-tasks first. Load planning only when multiple coordinated workflows or shared cross-task data tables require a dependency-aware task graph.

Use when adding, modifying, or reviewing VS Code configuration policies. Covers the full policy lifecycle from registration to export to platform-specific artifacts. Run on ANY change that adds a `policy:` field to a configuration property.

Identify all files a specific author contributed to on a branch vs its upstream, tracing code through renames. Use when asked who edited what, what code an author contributed, or to audit authorship before a merge. This skill should be run as a subagent — it performs many git operations and returns a concise table.

Find and read timestamped process logs from Code OSS dev builds, including main.log, renderer.log, extension host logs, and agenthost.log. For bundles produced by Export Agent Host Debug Logs, use agent-host-logs.

Guidelines for fixing unhandled errors from the VS Code error telemetry dashboard. Use when investigating error-telemetry issues with stack traces, error messages, and hit/user counts. Covers tracing data flow through call stacks, identifying producers of invalid data vs. consumers that crash, enriching error messages for telemetry diagnosis, and avoiding common anti-patterns like silently swallowing errors.

Analyze V8/Chrome CPU profiles (.cpuprofile) and DevTools trace files (Trace-*.json). Use when: profiling performance, investigating slow functions, comparing code paths, finding bottlenecks, analyzing timeToRequest, understanding call trees from sampling profiler data, analyzing layout/paint/rendering, investigating user timing marks.

Investigate and fix CI failures on a pull request. Use when CI checks fail on a PR branch — covers finding the PR, identifying failed checks, downloading logs and artifacts, extracting the failure cause, and iterating on a fix. Requires the `gh` CLI.

Use when making code changes to ensure they pass VS Code's hygiene checks. Covers the pre-commit hook, unicode restrictions, string quoting rules, copyright headers, indentation, formatting, ESLint, and stylelint. Run the hygiene check before declaring work complete.
