Skills

Navigator ships 28 skills (23 documented here as individual workflow skills; configuration/ops skills are covered under Configuration and Reference; 2 are deprecated). They auto-invoke on natural-language intent — say what you want, the matching skill runs. No command memorization.

"Create a React component for profile"   → frontend-component
"Run until done: add auth"               → nav-loop
"What do we know about payments?"         → nav-graph
"Dispatch TASK-42 to Pilot"              → nav-pilot

Getting Started

• nav-start — load the Navigator session: version check, profile, assigned tasks.
• nav-init — scaffold the .agent/ structure in a new project.
• nav-onboard — interactive, learn-by-doing tutorial.

Context Management

• nav-marker — save a context checkpoint (intent + corrections + belief state).
• nav-compact — clear context while preserving knowledge via an auto-marker.

Autonomous Execution

• nav-loop — run until done with a dual-condition exit gate.
• nav-workflow — unified orchestration by complexity.
• nav-simplify — post-implementation clarity pass, functionality preserved.

Task Management & Docs

• nav-task — create/archive implementation plans.
• nav-sop — capture Standard Operating Procedures.
• nav-graph — query the knowledge graph and capture memories.
• nav-brief — one-screen intent brief before ambiguous tasks, with an optional Contradict row.
• nav-triz — three competing candidates from different TRIZ separation modes when a contradiction is declared.

Research

• nav-deep-research — web deep research: fenced sources, adversarial critic, deterministic ship gate, cited report ingested into the knowledge graph (v7.3.0, ships off).

Theory of Mind

• nav-profile — bilateral modeling: remember your preferences across sessions.
• nav-diagnose — detect collaboration drift and re-anchor.

Frontend Development

• frontend-component — component + tests + styles.
• frontend-test — tests for existing components.
• visual-regression — screenshot testing + CI.

Backend Development

• backend-endpoint — REST/GraphQL endpoint with validation + tests.
• backend-test — unit/integration tests for existing code.
• database-migration — migrations with rollback + safety checks.

Design-to-Code

• product-design — Figma review → tokens → component mapping.

Extensibility

• nav-skill-creator — generate custom project skills.
• plugin-slash-command — generate new slash commands.

Insights

• nav-stats — session efficiency report (token savings, cache, recommendations).

Configuration

• nav-features — show and toggle features, shared or per person (--local).

Integrations & Ops

• nav-pilot — dispatch a task doc to Pilot for autonomous execution.
• Ops skills (nav-upgrade, nav-sync-claude, nav-release) → Configuration and Reference.
