Guided rollback of the last /hv-work cycle on the base branch — resets the merge commit, restores TODO entries to their type sections, refuses on cycles with post-merge commits…
Remove a captured backlog item and clean up its dependencies — strips the TODO entry, removes Related cross-references, deletes the detail file…
Review the backlog, reconcile active work against git state, archive old completions, show sorted tables with relationship clusters, suggest the next item, and route to /hv-work.
Gracefully pause mid-session — writes a handoff note (current hypothesis, next planned step, mid-edit files, uncommitted work strategy) to .hv/handoff/<branch>.md so /hv-resume in…
Staff-engineer review of a feature branch before merge or PR — reads commits, diff, referenced item IDs, and matching KNOWLEDGE.md topics; dispatches an Opus reviewer that checks…
Initialize the .hv/ folder structure with TODO.md, KNOWLEDGE.md, counters.json, config.json, status.json, and CLI helpers.
Orchestrator-driven parallel implementation — plans tasks, dispatches worker subagents, verifies, commits atomically per task.
Capture a hard-boundary decision into .hv/DECISIONS.md — manually confirmed, never auto-invoked. Decisions differ from learnings in KNOWLEDGE.md by being active commitments with…
Capture one item and immediately implement it — combines /hv-capture and /hv-work, skipping the /hv-next review.
Throwaway feasibility experiment on a dedicated git branch — answers a specific question without polluting main or the backlog.
Brainstorm a project's vision and break it into milestones — Socratic discovery, web research, deliberate challenge, then write MILESTONES.md and per-milestone detail files.
Change hv-skills configuration interactively — pick which settings to edit from a checklist showing current values, then choose new values from the same options used at init.
Capture bugs, features, and tasks into TODO.md without executing them. Classifies each item, assigns priority/size, mints zero-padded IDs ([B01], [F01], [T01]).
Extract durable session learnings (gotchas, conventions, constraints) into .hv/KNOWLEDGE.md grouped by topic, and update the CLAUDE.md topic index.
Print the orchestrator's intended approach for an item, slice, or milestone — files it would touch, files it would create, tests it would add, assumptions it's making, known…
Maintain the project map of subsystems under .hv/map/. Modes — first-run (scaffold), after-work (update touched subsystems), consolidate (merge stale/duplicate entries).
Systematic root-cause investigation for a bug — reads the TODO entry + detail file, consults KNOWLEDGE.md, reproduces, hypothesizes, verifies, fixes with one atomic commit, and…
Scaffold and maintain a public-facing user guide under <docs.path>/ (default docs/) — aimed at consumers, not contributors.
Run a full architectural refactor cycle — explores the codebase for friction, categorizes dependencies, designs competing approaches for structural changes, then fixes everything…
Pull open GitHub/GitLab issues into .hv/BACKLOG.md — list candidates from the upstream repo(s), capture selected ones with GH/GL cross-references, label them in-progress upstream…
Capture or refine a domain term in .hv/CONTEXT.md — the project's canonical glossary. Use on "save X as Y", "let's call this X", "by Y I mean…", "add X to context", or to refine…
Cut a release — bump version (major/minor/patch), generate categorized release notes from commits since the last tag, prepend a section to CHANGELOG.md, create an annotated git…
Write an implementation plan as a first-class artifact before execution — keyed by milestone and slice or item (M01-S01.md, M01-B07.md).
Check for a newer hv-skills release on GitHub and tell the user how to update — detects install type (plugin, stow, repo clone), compares plugin.json version against the latest…
Per-item design exploration before /hv-plan — Socratic discovery, 2-3 approaches with tradeoffs, sectioned design with per-section approval, writes .hv/designs/<ID>.md, hands off…
Shortcut for /hv-capture — forwards verbatim. See hv-capture for behavior.
