Henning's skills for a basic software development lifecycle

Posted . Visible to the public.

I maintain some agent skills Show archive.org snapshot that move software requirements from idea to deployment, with strong human direction but minimal context switches. Each skill hands off to the next, and every skill also works on its own.

🧭 /explore-solutions Show archive.org snapshot

Explores the solution space for a requirement before planning: scans the codebase, generates genuinely different approaches, compares their trade-offs from a bird's-eye view, and narrows down to a primary candidate and its fallbacks.

🀝 /agree-on-everything Show archive.org snapshot

Turns a requirement with a settled approach into a plan an agent can execute without further questions. Walks through the future implementation, surfaces every decision, edge case and blocker, and settles each one with you before any code is written.

πŸ—οΈ /build-alone Show archive.org snapshot

Carries a set of requirements all the way to a tested, self-reviewed implementation that is ready to hand back. Confirms requirements, branches, tests, verifies and self-reviews on its own, interrupting you only for true showstoppers.

  agree-on-everything \
  work-in-branch \
  pass-all-checks \
  self-review

The first name is the skill itself, the rest are the skills it uses for single steps of its process. They are optional: leave any of them out and the agent tells you in one line what is missing and what it does instead.

πŸ—ΊοΈ /diff-tour Show archive.org snapshot

Walks you through a diff you did not write but must review and take responsibility for. Produces one self-contained HTML report that narrates the change as a tour: chapters in a reading order that builds understanding, every hunk beside
prose that says what it is for, and a mark on each hunk saying how carefully it deserves to be read.
