About this skill
Ark Architecture Skill
Design architecture for Ark features following existing patterns and principles.
Process
- Analyze Current Solution - Use the ark-analysis skill to examine relevant parts of the codebase
- Identify Patterns - Find existing idioms, data models, and service structures to reuse
- Design for Reuse - Extend existing components rather than creating new ones
- Enable Incremental Updates - Break changes into small, independent pieces
- Flag One-Way Decisions - Raise questions on choices that are hard to reverse
Principles
- Reuse over creation - Extend existing services, models, and patterns
- Follow existing idioms - Match current code style, naming, and structure
- Incremental delivery - Design so features can be shipped in stages
- Reversibility - Identify and question decisions that lock in future options
Conventions
- Watch endpoints: Use
?watch=truequery param for SSE streaming (Kubernetes-style) - Service ports: Use named ports (e.g.,
port: mcp) rather than port numbers
Output
Architecture documents should include:
- Component diagram showing how new pieces fit with existing ones
- Data model extending current schemas
- API design following existing conventions
- List of one-way decisions requiring team input
- Implementation phases for incremental delivery

Create professional draw.io (diagrams.net) diagrams in XML format (.drawio files) with integrated PMP/PMBOK methodologies, extensive visual asset libraries, and industry-standard professional templates. Use this skill when users ask to create flowcharts, swimlane diagrams, cross-functional flowcharts, org charts, network diagrams, UML diagrams, BPMN, project management diagrams (WBS, Gantt, PERT, RACI), risk matrices, stakeholder maps, or any other visual diagram in draw.io format. This skill includes access to custom shape libraries for icons, clipart, and professional symbols.
godot
bfollington
This skill should be used when working on Godot Engine projects. It provides specialized knowledge of Godot's file formats (.gd, .tscn, .tres), architecture patterns (component-based, signal-driven, resource-based), common pitfalls, validation tools, code templates, and CLI workflows. The `godot` command is available for running the game, validating scripts, importing resources, and exporting builds. Use this skill for tasks involving Godot game development, debugging scene/resource files, implementing game systems, or creating new Godot components.
nano-banana-pro

Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.
pdf-to-markdown
aliceisjustplaying
Convert entire PDF documents to clean, structured Markdown for full context loading. Use this skill when the user wants to extract ALL text from a PDF into context (not grep/search), when discussing or analyzing PDF content in full, when the user mentions "load the whole PDF", "bring the PDF into context", "read the entire PDF", or when partial extraction/grepping would miss important context. This is the preferred method for PDF text extraction over page-by-page or grep approaches.
