Muse Dev Patterns

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
The distilled per-slice engineering discipline of the Muse repo — how to triage a failing gate, probe the live path, prove a test isn't vacuous, calibrate a constant from measurement, and land a slice with the right writeback. Use this whenever working on Muse code — especially when a gate/test/battery fails and you must decide "my bug, stale expectation, or pre-existing rot?", when adding or tuning any threshold constant, when writing a test for a fix, when creating a live eval battery, or when landing/committing a slice. Also use it when a claim like "X works" needs verification — it says which proof is the cheapest sufficient one.

From the source SKILL.md

Distilled from 200+ loop fires (docs/goals/loops/*), the backlog's dedup ledger, and live sessions. improve-muse decides WHAT to build and drives the end-to-end cycle; THIS skill is the HOW at each step — the moves that kept working, and the failure classes each one exists to prevent.

What this skill does

Muse Dev Patterns is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/muse-dev-patterns/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Muse Dev Patterns Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
