Use when writing, reviewing, or debugging pure Ruby code — idiomatic patterns, modern 3.x+ features (pattern matching, Data.define, endless methods), error handling conventions (raise vs fail, result objects), memoization, and performance idioms. For Rails use rails-guides. For testing use minitest. For code style use sandi-metz-rules.

--- name: ruby-upgrade description: Use when upgrading the Ruby interpreter version of a Bundler/Rails app — especially "upgrade to Ruby 4", "bump Ruby to 4.0", "audit Ruby 4 compatibility", "what breaks on Ruby 4", or a specific target like "Ruby 4.0.5". Triggers on Ruby-major risk symptoms: CGI.parse/CGI::Cookie removal, Net::HTTP implicit Content-Type dropped, demoted default gems (ostruct/logger/benchmark/irb), SortedSet, Set#inspect changes, native-extension recompile crashes, openssl 4 pin

Use when stuck after multiple debug attempts and want to escalate to a stronger one-shot model (GPT-5 Pro, Opus, Gemini Pro) — packages a self-contained "oracle prompt" with Ruby/Rails project briefing, verbatim error, what-was-tried, constraints, and just-enough attached files. Triggers include "ask the oracle", "write a letter to GPT-5", "I'm stuck, draft a prompt for another model", "/tmp/letter.md".
