Tour: What Can I Do?

Friendly onboarding when users ask about capabilities.

Triggers

Activate when user says things like:

"what can you do?"
"what can I do?"
"help me get started"
"show me around"
"what features are available?"
"how does this work?"

Response Template

Give a warm, practical overview:

What I Can Do

I'm Claude Code with persistent memory and specialized capabilities. Here's what makes me useful:

Code & Development

Write & edit code - any language, any framework
Debug issues - trace errors, find root causes
Refactor - improve structure without breaking things
Test - write and run tests, validate changes

Memory & Context

Remember across sessions - learnings persist to SQLite/PostgreSQL
Recall past work - search what worked/failed before
Handoffs - create snapshots to resume complex work

Research & Planning

Explore codebases - understand unfamiliar projects fast
Plan implementations - architect before coding
Search the web - find docs, solutions, best practices

Specialized Agents

I can spawn sub-agents for complex tasks:

explorer - map codebase structure
kraken - implement with TDD workflow
debug - investigate issues systematically

Quick Tips

Ask naturally - I'll figure out which tools to use
Say "create a handoff" before ending sessions
Say "what worked for X before?" to recall past learnings

What would you like to work on?

Style Notes

Be welcoming, not overwhelming
Focus on practical value, not feature lists
End with an invitation to start working
Don't list every skill - highlight categories

Excalidraw Diagram Generator

by github

vendor ×3

Generate Excalidraw diagrams from natural language descriptions. Use when asked to "create a diagram", "make a flowchart", "visualize a process", "draw a system architecture", "create a mind map", or "generate an Excalidraw file". Supports flowcharts, relationship diagrams, mind maps, and system architecture diagrams. Outputs .excalidraw JSON files that can be opened directly in Excalidraw.

Build and distribute Expo development clients locally or via TestFlight

Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute in a separate session with review checkpoints

Data structure for annotated matrices in single-cell analysis. Use when working with .h5ad files or integrating with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take parcadei/tour from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

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.
