config/comments_research.md scope constraintsdocumentation
Generate or update README.md files across three scopes — repo (with project-type detection), account (GitHub user profile), and org (organization profile). Use when creating, updating, or aligning a README to org conventions.
development
Audit README.md files against best practices for repos, accounts, or orgs. Detects missing sections, stale links, inconsistent formatting, and convention violations. Use when reviewing README quality across one or many repos.
development
Analyzes industry websites for design patterns, layout, typography, and content strategies using first-principles thinking. Use when researching website design, UI patterns, or competitive design analysis.
development
Audits website usability for UX optimization, covering forms, navigation, validation, and microcopy. Use when reviewing user experience, task completion flows, or interface friction points.
