Those critic skills are great. I see a real business opportunity for someone who can bundle everything you describe into a turnkey solution for a programmer like me who doesn't want to take months coming up with their own system and extensive .md files.

I'm currently, very painfully, removing a tiny bit of tech debt at a time from a massively complex project that we inherited from a 3rd-party vendor. Some of the tech debt is AI-related, some because it's a vendor who rarely has to maintain anything they create, some because when we first inherited it we had no grasp on the entire codebase and were just trying to change the plane wheels while flying (we still are).

What I'm doing now is the hardest kind of programming imo. I spend hours/week just meditating on how to chip away at this out-of-control codebase, figuring out how I can surgically remove some leaky abstraction that's spawned 5 cousins w/o disrupting the whole project. I'd be fascinated to see if the latest frontier model with a system like yours can actually help me. But I don't have the time or desire to invest the months of trial and error that I'm sure it took you to get to that point.

I used Claude Code's /insights function. It gets Claude himself to go over your sessions and usage patterns. It'll produce an HTML report that you can view.

In my case Claude saw that code review was my main activity and that I was manually and repeatedly asking claude to "review X, Y, Z..." so he suggested turning it into a skill. So I fired up the superpowers:brainstorming skill and bikeshedded it until I ended up with this heavy duty massively parallel super reviewing super claude. Refined it a bit after a couple weeks of use and the result is what you see in my repository.
