Six Quality Characteristics
- Accuracy: Factually correct, technically sound, current | Validation: expert review, automated testing
- Completeness: All necessary info present for doc type | Validation: checklist, gap analysis
- Clarity: Easy to understand, logical flow, appropriate level | Validation: Flesch 70-80
- Consistency: Uniform terminology, formatting, structure | Validation: style guide compliance
- Correctness: Proper grammar, spelling, punctuation | Validation: automated check, zero errors
- Usability: User achieves goal efficiently | Validation: task success, DIVIO type purpose served

Type-Specific Validation Checklists
Tutorial Checklist
- [ ] Completable without external references | [ ] Steps numbered and sequential
- [ ] Each step has verifiable outcome | [ ] No assumed prior knowledge | [ ] Builds confidence
How-to Checklist
- [ ] Clear goal stated upfront | [ ] Assumes fundamentals known
- [ ] Single task focus | [ ] Ends with completion indicator | [ ] No basics teaching
Reference Checklist
- [ ] All parameters documented | [ ] Return values specified
- [ ] Error conditions listed | [ ] Examples per entry | [ ] No narrative
Explanation Checklist
- [ ] Addresses "why" not "what" | [ ] Provides context and reasoning
- [ ] Discusses alternatives | [ ] No task steps | [ ] Builds conceptual model
Verdict Criteria
- approved: Passes all type-specific validation, no collapse violations, meets quality gates
- needs-revision: Minor issues fixable in place (clarity, missing examples, small gaps)
- restructure-required: Collapse detected requiring split, or fundamental type mismatch

Guide users through a structured workflow for co-authoring documentation. Use when user wants to write documentation, proposals, technical specs, decision docs, or similar structured content. This workflow helps users efficiently transfer context, refine content through iteration, and verify the doc works for readers. Trigger when user mentions writing docs, creating proposals, drafting specs, or similar documentation tasks.
Intelligently organizes your files and folders across your computer by understanding context, finding duplicates, suggesting better structures, and automating cleanup tasks. Reduces cognitive load and keeps your digital workspace tidy without manual effort.
Generates creative domain name ideas for your project and checks availability across multiple TLDs (.com, .io, .dev, .ai, etc.). Saves hours of brainstorming and manual checking.
You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.
Implements Manus-style file-based planning for complex tasks. Creates task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md. Use when starting complex multi-step tasks, research projects, or any task requiring >5 tool calls.
Creative research ideation and exploration. Use for open-ended brainstorming sessions, exploring interdisciplinary connections, challenging assumptions, or identifying research gaps. Best for early-stage research planning when you do not have specific observations yet. For formulating testable hypotheses from data use hypothesis-generation.
Comprehensive GitHub project management with swarm-coordinated issue tracking, project board automation, and sprint planning
Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their design, or mentions "grill me".
