What it is and why it matters

It is a collection of skills by Addy Osmani that aims to raise coding-agent output from intern level to a more disciplined senior engineer. It imposes a clear work sequence: define, plan, build, verify, review and ship. It is useful mostly for those who code with AI without an engineering background and want to trust a repeatable process.

Key points

  • Sets an explicit sequence: define, plan, build, verify, review and ship
  • The biggest skill spawns a second agent with clean context to attack non-trivial decisions before they stand
  • The reviewer never sees the original conclusion to avoid biasing it toward agreement; three rounds maximum
