Skill Execution Criteria

When to Use This Skill

• [AUTO-EXTRACTED from skill description and content]
• [Task patterns this skill is optimized for]
• [Workflow contexts where this skill excels]

When NOT to Use This Skill

• [Situations where alternative skills are better suited]
• [Anti-patterns that indicate wrong skill choice]
• [Edge cases this skill doesn't handle well]

Success Criteria

• primary_outcome: "[SKILL-SPECIFIC measurable result based on skill purpose]"
• [assert|neutral] quality_threshold: 0.85 [ground:acceptance-criteria] [conf:0.90] [state:provisional]
• verification_method: "[How to validate skill executed correctly and produced expected outcome]"

Edge Cases

• case: "Ambiguous or incomplete input" handling: "Request clarification, document assumptions, proceed with explicit constraints"
• case: "Conflicting requirements or constraints" handling: "Surface conflict to user, propose resolution options, document trade-offs"
• case: "Insufficient context for quality execution" handling: "Flag missing information, provide template for needed context, proceed with documented limitations"

Skill Guardrails

NEVER:

• "[SKILL-SPECIFIC anti-pattern that breaks methodology]"
• "[Common mistake that degrades output quality]"
• "[Shortcut that compromises skill effectiveness]" ALWAYS:
• "[SKILL-SPECIFIC requirement for successful execution]"
• "[Critical step that must not be skipped]"
• "[Quality check that ensures reliable output]"

Evidence-Based Execution

self_consistency: "After completing this skill, verify output quality by [SKILL-SPECIFIC validation approach]" program_of_thought: "Decompose this skill execution into: [SKILL-SPECIFIC sequential steps]" plan_and_solve: "Plan: [SKILL-SPECIFIC planning phase] -> Execute: [SKILL-SPECIFIC execution phase] -> Verify: [SKILL-SPECIFIC verification phase]"

Token Budget Advisor

Kanitsal Cerceve (Evidential Frame Activation)

Kaynak dogrulama modu etkin.

Purpose: Proactively manage token budgets by analyzing current usage, estimating task complexity, generating intelligent chunking strategies, prioritizing work, and creating step-by-step execution plans that stay within budget limits.

When to Use This Skill

• Before starting large or complex tasks
• When approaching token budget limits
• During multi-phase project planning
• When tasks fail due to token exhaustion
• For optimizing resource allocation
• When coordinating multiple agents

Analysis Dimensions

1. Budget Assessment

• Current token usage vs. limits
• Remaining budget calculation
• Historical usage patterns
• Projected usage for pending tasks
• Buffer allocation for safety

2. Task Complexity Analysis

• Token estimation by task type
• Agent requirements and costs
• Integration complexity
• Testing overhead
• Documentation needs

3. Chunking Strategy

• Logical task boundaries
• Dependency analysis
• Chunk size optimization
• Inter-chunk communication
• State management between chunks

4. Priority Optimization

• Critical path identification
• Value vs. cost analysis
• Risk assessment
• Quick wins identification
• Deferrable work detection

5. Execution Planning

• Step-by-step task sequence
• Budget tracking per step
• Checkpoint planning
• Rollback strategies
• Progress monitoring

Execution Process

Phase 1: Budget Assessment

# Initialize budget analysis
npx claude-flow@alpha hooks pre-task --description "Analyzing token budget"

# Retrieve current usage
npx claude-flow@alpha memory retrieve --key "token-usage/current"

Budget Calculation:

function assessBudget(tokenLimit = 200000) {
  const usage = {
    limit: tokenLimit,
    used: getCurrentTokenUsage(),
    remaining: 0,
    buffer: 0,
    available: 0,
    status: "unknown"
  };

  usage.remaining = usage.limit - usage.used;
  usage.buffer = Math.floor(usage.limit * 0
