Supports: Converting PlantUML diagrams to ASCII art, Creating sequence diagrams, class diagrams, flowcharts in ASCII format, Generating Unicode-enhanced ASCII art with -utxt flag

Guides Qdrant deployment selection. Use when someone asks 'how to deploy Qdrant', 'Docker vs Cloud', 'local mode', 'embedded Qdrant', 'Qdrant EDGE', 'which deployment option', 'self-hosted vs cloud', or 'need lowest latency deployment'. Also use when choosing between deployment types for a new project.

Guides Qdrant monitoring and observability setup. Use when someone asks 'how to monitor Qdrant', 'what metrics to track', 'is Qdrant healthy', 'optimizer stuck', 'why is memory growing', 'requests are slow', or needs to set up Prometheus, Grafana, or health checks. Also use when debugging production issues that require metric analysis.

Different techniques to optimize the performance of Qdrant, including indexing strategies, query optimization, and hardware considerations. Use when you want to improve the speed and efficiency of your Qdrant deployment.

Diagnoses and fixes slow Qdrant indexing and data ingestion. Use when someone reports 'uploads are slow', 'indexing takes forever', 'optimizer is stuck', 'HNSW build time too long', or 'data uploaded but search is bad'. Also use when optimizer status shows errors, segments won't merge, or indexing threshold questions arise.

Diagnoses and reduces Qdrant memory usage. Use when someone reports 'memory too high', 'RAM keeps growing', 'node crashed', 'out of memory', 'memory leak', or asks 'why is memory usage so high?', 'how to reduce RAM?'. Also use when memory doesn't match calculations, quantization didn't help, or nodes crash during recovery.

Diagnoses and fixes slow Qdrant search. Use when someone reports 'search is slow', 'high latency', 'queries take too long', 'low QPS', 'throughput too low', 'filtered search is slow', or 'search was fast but now it's slow'. Also use when search performance degrades after config changes or data growth.

Guides sliding time window scaling in Qdrant. Use when someone asks 'only recent data matters', 'how to expire old vectors', 'time-based data rotation', 'delete old data efficiently', 'social media feed search', 'news search', 'log search with retention', or 'how to keep only last N months of data'.

Guides Qdrant multi-tenant scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to scale tenants', 'one collection per tenant?', 'tenant isolation', 'dedicated shards', or reports tenant performance issues. Also use when multi-tenant workloads outgrow shared infrastructure.

Guides Qdrant query throughput (QPS) scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to increase QPS', 'need more throughput', 'queries per second too low', 'batch search', 'read replicas', or 'how to handle more concurrent queries'.

Analyze Terraform plan JSON output for AzureRM Provider to distinguish between false-positive diffs (order-only changes in Set-type attributes) and actual resource changes. Use when reviewing terraform plan output for Azure resources like Application Gateway, Load Balancer, Firewall, Front Door, NSG, and other resources with Set-type attributes that cause spurious diffs due to internal ordering changes.

Microsoft Store Developer CLI (msstore) for publishing Windows applications to the Microsoft Store. Use when asked to configure Store credentials, list Store apps, check submission status, publish submissions, manage package flights, set up CI/CD for Store publishing, or integrate with Partner Center. Supports Windows App SDK/WinUI, UWP, .NET MAUI, Flutter, Electron, React Native, and PWA applications.

Bootstrap and run a multi-agent AI development team. Use when: starting a new software project with AI agents, setting up parallel dev/QA teams, creating sprint plans, writing brainstorm prompts with distinct agent voices, recovering a project workflow, or planning sprints.

Setup and initialization guide for developing AWS CDK (Cloud Development Kit) applications in Python. This skill enables users to configure environment prerequisites, create new CDK projects, manage dependencies, and deploy to AWS.

Reusable investigation patterns for AWS CloudWatch: Logs Insights query templates, alarm-to-deployment correlation, blast-radius narrowing decision tree, and PromQL-style metric query patterns for structured incident triage.

Analyze AWS resources used in the app (IaC files and/or resources in a target account/region) and optimize costs - creating GitHub issues for identified optimizations.

Analyze AWS resource health, diagnose issues from CloudWatch logs and metrics, and create a remediation plan for identified problems.

Analyze Azure resources used in the app (IaC files and/or resources in a target rg) and optimize costs - creating GitHub issues for identified optimizations.

Performs comprehensive preflight validation of Bicep deployments to Azure, including template syntax validation, what-if analysis, and permission checks. Use this skill before any deployment to Azure to preview changes, identify potential issues, and ensure the deployment will succeed. Activate when users mention deploying to Azure, validating Bicep files, checking deployment permissions, previewing infrastructure changes, running what-if, or preparing for azd provision.

Manage Azure DevOps resources via CLI including projects, repos, pipelines, builds, pull requests, work items, artifacts, and service endpoints. Use when working with Azure DevOps, az commands, devops automation, CI/CD, or when user mentions Azure DevOps CLI.
