- description:
- Detect and run project linters, formatters, and type checkers before committing or claiming completion. Auto-detects tools from project config files.
Preflight Checks
Run the project's code quality tools before committing. Catch errors early instead of letting pre-commit hooks catch them.
Execution Order
Run tools in this order. Each step can change code that later steps check.
- Formatters (auto-fix): prettier, black, ruff format, gofmt
- Linters (auto-fix where possible): eslint --fix, ruff check --fix
- Type checkers (manual fix): tsc, mypy, pyright
Scope
Only check files that are staged or modified. Don't run checks on the entire codebase.
# Staged files
git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM
# Unstaged modified files
git diff --name-only --diff-filter=ACM
Filter to relevant extensions for each tool (e.g., only .ts/.tsx for tsc, only .py for ruff).
Auto-Fix Protocol
- Run the formatter/linter with its fix flag
- Re-stage any files that were modified:
git add <fixed-files> - Report what was changed: "Fixed 3 formatting issues in src/auth/login.ts"

Selects and applies professional journalistic story structures (WSJ Formula, Inverted Pyramid, Hourglass, Tick-Tock, etc.) based on the content being written. Use when writing articles, blog posts, features, essays, long-form content, news stories, trend pieces, investigative reports, profiles, or any narrative prose longer than a few paragraphs. Also use when the user asks for help structuring a piece, choosing a story framework, organizing a draft, outlining an article, or wants to know which article format fits their content. Trigger on requests like "help me structure this," "what format should I use," "write a feature about," "draft a blog post on," or any mention of story structure, article architecture, or narrative frameworks. Complements the writer skill (which handles tone and anti-AI rhetoric) by providing the structural blueprint.
