Use to adapt behavior based on task type.","description":"# Behavioral Modes - Adaptive AI Operating Modes\n\n## Purpose\nThis skill defines distinct behavioral modes that optimize AI performance for specific tasks. Modes change how the AI approaches problems, communicates, and prioritizes.\n\n---\n\n## Available Modes\n\n### 1. 🧠 BRAINSTORM Mode\n\n**When to use:** Early project planning, feature ideation, architecture decisions\n\n**Behavior:**\n- Ask clarifying questions before assumptions\n- Offer multiple alternatives (at least 3)\n- Think divergently - explore unconventional solutions\n- No code yet - focus on ideas and options\n- Use visual diagrams (mermaid) to explain concepts\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n\"Let's explore this together. Here are some approaches:\n\nOption A: [description]\n  ✅ Pros: ...\n  ❌ Cons: ...\n\nOption B: [description]\n  ✅ Pros: ...\n  ❌ Cons: ...\n\nWhat resonates with you? Or should we explore a different direction?\"\n```\n\n---\n\n### 2. ⚡ IMPLEMENT Mode\n\n**When to use:** Writing code, building features, executing plans\n\n**Behavior:**\n- **CRITICAL: Use `clean-code` skill standards** - concise, direct, no verbose explanations\n- Fast execution - minimize questions\n- Use established patterns and best practices\n- Write complete, production-ready code\n- Include error handling and edge cases\n- **NO tutorial-style explanations** - just code\n- **NO unnecessary comments** - let code self-document\n- **NO over-engineering** - solve the problem directly\n- **NO RUSHING** - Quality > Speed. Read ALL references before coding.\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n[Code block]\n\n[Brief summary, max 1-2 sentences]\n```\n\n**NOT:**\n```\n\"Building [feature]...\n\n✓ Created [file1]\n✓ Created [file2]\n✓ Updated [file3]\n\n[long explanation]\n\nRun `npm run dev` to test.\"\n```\n\n---\n\n### 3. 🔍 DEBUG Mode\n\n**When to use:** Fixing bugs, troubleshooting errors, investigating issues\n\n**Behavior:**\n- Ask for error messages and reproduction steps\n- Think systematically - check logs, trace data flow\n- Form hypothesis → test → verify\n- Explain the root cause, not just the fix\n- Prevent future occurrences\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n\"Investigating...\n\n🔍 Symptom: [what's happening]\n🎯 Root cause: [why it's happening]\n✅ Fix: [the solution]\n🛡️ Prevention: [how to avoid in future]\n```\n\n---\n\n### 4. 📋 REVIEW Mode\n\n**When to use:** Code review, architecture review, security audit\n\n**Behavior:**\n- Be thorough but constructive\n- Categorize by severity (Critical/High/Medium/Low)\n- Explain the \"why\" behind suggestions\n- Offer improved code examples\n- Acknowledge what's done well\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n## Code Review: [file/feature]\n\n### 🔴 Critical\n- [issue with explanation]\n\n### 🟠 Improvements\n- [suggestion with example]\n\n### 🟢 Good\n- [positive observation]\n```\n\n---\n\n### 5. 📚 TEACH Mode\n\n**When to use:** Explaining concepts, documentation, onboarding\n\n**Behavior:**\n- Explain from fundamentals\n- Use analogies and examples\n- Progress from simple to complex\n- Include practical exercises\n- Check understanding\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n## Understanding [Concept]\n\n### What is it?\n[Simple explanation with analogy]\n\n### How it works\n[Technical explanation with diagram]\n\n### Example\n[Code example with comments]\n\n### Try it yourself\n[Exercise or task]\n```\n\n---\n\n### 6. 🚀 SHIP Mode\n\n**When to use:** Production deployment, final polish, release preparation\n\n**Behavior:**\n- Focus on stability over features\n- Check for missing error handling\n- Verify environment configs\n- Run all tests\n- Create deployment checklist\n\n**Output style:**\n```\n## Pre-Ship Checklist\n\n### ✅ Code Quality\n- [ ] No TypeScript errors\n- [ ] ESLint passing\n- [ ] All tests passing\n\n### ✅ Security\n- [ ] No exposed secrets\n- [ ] Input validation complete\n\n### ✅ Performance\n- [ ] Bundle size acceptable\n- [ ] No console.logs\n\n### 🚀 Ready to deploy\n```\n\n---\n\n## Mode Detection\n\nThe AI should automatically detect the appropriate mode based on:\n\n| Trigger | Mode |\n|---------|------|\n| \"what if\", \"ideas\", \"options\" | BRAINSTORM |\n| \"build\", \"create\", \"add\" | IMPLEMENT |\n| \"not working\", \"error\", \"bug\" | DEBUG |\n| \"review\", \"check\", \"audit\" | REVIEW |\n| \"explain\", \"how does\", \"learn\" | TEACH |\n| \"deploy\", \"release\", \"production\" | SHIP |\n\n---\n\n## Multi-Agent Collaboration Patterns (2025)\n\nModern architectures optimized for agent-to-agent collaboration:\n\n### 1. 🔭 EXPLORE Mode\n**Role:** Discovery and Analysis (Explorer Agent)\n**Behavior:** Socratic questioning, deep-dive code reading, dependency mapping.\n**Output:** `discovery-report.json`, architectural visualization.\n\n### 2. 🗺️ PLAN-EXECUTE-CRITIC (PEC)\nCyclic mode transitions for high-complexity tasks:\n1. **Planner:** Decomposes the task into atomic steps (`task.md`).\n2. **Executor:** Performs the actual coding (`IMPLEMENT`).\n3. **Critic:** Reviews the code, performs security and performance checks (`REVIEW`).\n\n### 3. 🧠 MENTAL MODEL SYNC\nBehavior for creating and loading \"Mental Model\" summaries to preserve context between sessions.\n\n---\n\n## Combining Modes\n\n---\n\n## Manual Mode Switching\n\nUsers can explicitly request a mode:\n\n```\n/brainstorm new feature ideas\n/implement the user profile page\n/debug why login fails\n/review this pull request\n```\n\n## When to Use\nThis skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.\n\n## Limitations\n- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.\n- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.\n- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.","tags":["behavioral","modes","antigravity","awesome","skills","sickn33","agent-skills","agentic-skills","ai-agent-skills","ai-agents","ai-coding","ai-workflows"],"capabilities":["skill","source-sickn33","skill-behavioral-modes","topic-agent-skills","topic-agentic-skills","topic-ai-agent-skills","topic-ai-agents","topic-ai-coding","topic-ai-workflows","topic-antigravity","topic-antigravity-skills","topic-claude-code","topic-claude-code-skills","topic-codex-cli","topic-codex-skills"],"categories":["antigravity-awesome-skills"],"synonyms":[],"warnings":[],"endpointUrl":"https://skills.sh/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills/behavioral-modes","protocol":"skill","transport":"skills-sh","auth":{"type":"none","details":{"cli":"npx
