brooks-debt
Tech debt assessment drawing on twelve classic engineering books: The Mythical Man-Month, Code Complete, Refactoring, Clean Architecture, The Pragmatic Programmer, Domain-Driven Design, A Philosophy of Software Design, Software Engineering at Google, xUnit Test Patterns, The Art of Unit Testing, Working Effectively with Legacy Code, and How Google Tests Software. Triggers when: user asks about tech debt, where to refactor, health check, or systemic maintainability questions. Also triggers when user asks why the codebase is hard to maintain, why adding developers isn't helping, or why complexity keeps growing. Use this skill proactively when maintainability or refactoring priorities are discussed.
