status-progression
Navigate role transitions for MCP work items using advance_item. Shows current role, gate status, required notes, and the correct trigger to use. Use when a user says "advance this item", "move to work", "start this task", "complete this item", "what's the next status", "why can't I advance", "unblock this", "cancel this item", or "check gate status".

-
manage-schemas
Create, view, edit, delete, and validate note schemas for the MCP Task Orchestrator in .taskorchestrator/config.yaml — the templates that define which notes agents must fill at each workflow phase. Use when user says "create schema", "show schemas", "edit schema", "delete schema", "validate config", "what schemas exist", "add a note to schema", "remove note from schema", or "configure gates".

-
session-retrospective
Analyze the current implementation run — evaluate schema effectiveness, delegation alignment, note quality, plan-to-execution fit. Captures cross-session trends and proposes improvements when patterns repeat. Use after implementation runs, or when user says 'retrospective', 'session review', 'what did we learn', 'analyze this run', 'how did that go', 'evaluate our process', 'wrap up', 'end of session review'. Also use when the output style's retrospective nudge fires after complete_tree.

feature-implementation
Guide the full lifecycle of a feature-implementation tagged MCP item (the feature container) — from queue through review

-
schema-workflow
Guide an MCP work item through its schema-defined lifecycle — filling required notes using guidancePointer and advancing through gate-enforced phases. Internal skill triggered by hooks and output styles during orchestration workflows. Use when an item has schema tags and needs to progress through queue, work, review, or terminal phases with note gates.

-
dependency-manager
Visualize, create, and diagnose dependencies between MCP work items. Use when a user says "what blocks this", "add a dependency", "show dependency graph", "why can't this start", "link these items", "unblock this", "remove dependency", or "show blockers".
jpicklyk/task-orchestrator 177
-
review-quality
Review quality framework for the work-to-review transition gate. Guides verification of plan alignment, test quality, and code simplification before marking implementation complete. Referenced by schema guidance fields during review-phase note filling. Read this skill when filling review-checklist notes or when asked to review completed implementation work.

-
create-item
Create an MCP work item from conversation context. Scans existing containers to anchor the item in the right place (Bugs, Features, Tech Debt, Observations, etc.), infers type and priority, creates single items or work trees, and pre-fills required notes. Use this whenever the conversation surfaces a bug, feature idea, tech debt item, or observation worth tracking persistently. Also use when user says "track this", "log this bug", "create a task for", or "add this to the backlog".

-
pre-plan-workflow
Internal workflow for plan mode — checks MCP for existing work, note schemas, and gate requirements to set the definition floor before planning begins. Triggered automatically when entering plan mode for any non-trivial implementation task.
jpicklyk/task-orchestrator 177
-
batch-complete
Complete or cancel multiple items at once — close out features, clean up old work, archive completed workstreams. Use when a user says "close out this feature", "complete everything under X", "cancel this workstream", "clean up old items", "bulk complete", "finish this feature", or "archive completed work".

-
implement
End-to-end workflow for taking MCP work items from backlog to merged PR. Handles git branching, schema-driven planning, implementation, independent review, and PR creation. Composes spec-quality, review-quality, and schema-workflow skills into a single pipeline. Use when a user says "implement this", "work on this item", "fix these bugs", "pick up the next task", "create a PR for this", "go through the backlog", or references specific MCP item IDs for implementation.

-
prepare-release
End-to-end release automation — reads commits since last tag, infers semver bump, drafts changelog, creates release PR, merges it, waits for CI green, tags, and monitors the Docker build to completion.
jpicklyk/task-orchestrator 177
-
post-plan-workflow
Internal workflow for post-plan materialization — creates MCP items from the approved plan and dispatches implementation. Triggered automatically after plan approval when MCP tracking is active.

utility-pm-skill-validate
Audits an existing pm-skills skill against structural conventions and quality criteria. Produces a structured validation report with pass/fail checks, severity-graded findings, and actionable recommendations. Use when checking whether a skill meets repo standards before shipping or after making changes.

-
utility-update-pm-skills
Validates internet access, compares the locally installed pm-skills version against the latest public release, and updates local files with conflict-aware overwrite-or-skip options. Produces an update report listing changed files, skipped files, and new capabilities. Use when you want to bring a local pm-skills installation up to date.

-
deliver-acceptance-criteria
Generates structured Given/When/Then acceptance criteria for a user story or feature slice. Use when translating product requirements into testable scenarios that cover the happy path, edge cases, error states, and non-functional expectations for engineering handoff and QA.

-
wrap-session
End-of-session documentation workflow that updates README, CHANGELOG, agent context files, and creates session logs. Use when wrapping up a working session, when asked to document session progress, when preparing handoff documentation, or when the user says "wrap up", "end session", "document progress", or "save session".

utility-update-pm-skills
Checks for newer pm-skills releases, compares local vs. latest version, previews what would change, and updates local files after user confirmation. Generates a structured update report documenting changed files, new capabilities, and the value delta between versions. Use when you want to bring a local pm-skills installation up to date.
