This is a serious refactor: consolidate the perf work into clean building blocks without losing the numbers. The design + the benchmark baselines live in docs/gale-v2-refactor.md — read it first. This skill exists mostly to stop the recurring mistakes. Take the working-discipline section literally.
Gale V2 Refactor is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the code-quality sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/gale-v2-refactor/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when working on the gale v2 consolidation/refactor — folding the accumulated CPU+GPU DG optimization work into user-friendly building blocks behind src/sim/'s Sim/Device abstraction while defending the measured performance edge. Carries the working-discipline rules distilled from the optimization sessions (the mistakes that got corrected repeatedly), the measurement gotchas, and the v2 design rails.
The Gale V2 Refactor Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 158,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
