Debrief

Persist the current task's findings as a self-contained, interactive HTML debrief at ./.ai/reports/<slug>/index.html. Pick a slug from the user's task, build the page using the playground skill's conventions, and pre-populate it with concrete findings drawn from the transcript. Pass --md to emit a plain Markdown report at ./.ai/reports/<slug>/index.md instead; Markdown mode does not require the playground skill.

Arguments

• <slug> (optional): kebab-case folder name, e.g. auth-security-review. If omitted, derive a topical slug from the task — short (3-5 words), lowercase, dash-separated.
• --md (optional): emit a Markdown report at <reports_dir>/index.md instead of HTML. Disables the playground dependency.

Prerequisites

The playground skill is required only for HTML mode (the default). With --md, this skill has no external dependencies. scripts/prepare.sh probes for playground only when building HTML; if missing it prints the install command and exits non-zero. Manual install:

npx skills add anthropics/skills --skill playground --global

Workflow

1. Resolve slug

• Use $ARGUMENTS if provided.
• Otherwise pick a topical kebab-case slug from the task: auth-security-review, bundle-size-analysis, tailwind-v4-migration, lcp-regression-q1. Avoid generic names (report, findings, debrief, output).
• Reject slugs that don't match ^[a-z0-9]([a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?$ — the helper script enforces this.

2. Prepare and verify dependencies

Run from the skill directory:

bash scripts/prepare.sh [--md] <slug>

The script:

• Validates the slug.
• In HTML mode (default), probes .agents/skills/playground, .claude/skills/playground, ~/.agents/skills/playground, ~/.claude/skills/playground. In --md mode the probe is skipped entirely.
• Exits 2 with the install command if playground is missing in HTML mode — relay the message verbatim and stop.
• Creates ./.ai/reports/<slug>/.
• Prints five KEY=VALUE lines on stdout: MODE, PLAYGROUND_DIR, REPORTS_DIR, REPORT_PATH, EXISTS. PLAYGROUND_DIR is empty when MODE=md; REPORT_PATH ends in index.md instead of index.html.

If EXISTS=true, ask the user before continuing: overwrite or pick a new slug.

3. Pick a playground template (HTML mode only)

Skip this step when --md is set.

Read $PLAYGROUND_DIR/SKILL.md, then load one template under $PLAYGROUND_DIR/templates/ whose shape best fits the debrief:

Debrief shape	Template
Code review / audit findings	diff-review.md
Document or spec critique	document-critique.md
Architecture / codebase tour	code-map.md
Learning, scope, knowledge gaps	concept-map.md
Data / query exploration	data-explorer.md
Visual / design decisions	design-playground.md

Read only the chosen template — don't load all six. If nothing fits cleanly, pick the closest and adapt; do not invent a new template.

4a. Build the debrief — HTML

Write a single HTML file to $REPORT_PATH that satisfies playground core requirements:

• Single file. Inline all CSS and JS. No external dependencies, fonts, or CDNs.
• Live preview updating on every control change. No "Apply" button.
• Prompt output at the bottom — natural language, mentions only non-default choices, with a "Copy" button and brief "Copied!" feedback.
• Sensible defaults plus 3-5 named presets that snap controls to a cohesive combination.
• Dark theme. System font for UI, monospace for code/values.
• Pre-populate with the actual findings from the transcript — concrete file paths, line numbers, severities, metrics, suggestions, code snippets. Not lorem ipsum. Not placeholders. If the transcript has no findings, ask the user for the source material before writing.

For larger payloads, embed findings as a JS array literal inside one inline <script> at the top of the file.

4b. Build the debrief — Markdown (when --md)

Write a single Markdown file to $REPORT_PATH. Recommended skeleton:

# <Slug in Title Case>

<One- or two-sentence summary of what was investigated and the headline takeaway.>

## Findings

### <Finding title> — severity: high|medium|low

- **File:** `path/to/file.ts:42`
- **Issue:** <one-line description>

```ts
// minimal snippet showing the issue
```

**Suggestion:** <concrete fix>.

## Next steps

- [ ] <actionable item>

Rules:

• Pre-populate with concrete findings from the transcript — real paths, line numbers, severities, snippets. No placeholders, no lorem ipsum. If the transcript has no findings, ask the user before writing.
• Keep it terse: one H3 per finding, fenced code only when the exact text matters.
• No HTML, no embedded scripts, no inline assets. Adjacent files (images, data) may live alongside in $REPORTS_DIR/ if needed.

5. Open

After writing $REPORT_PATH, open it in the user's default browser. Run this unconditionally — do not skip, prompt, or wait for confirmation:

open "$REPORT_PATH"

Then print the absolute $REPORT_PATH so the user can locate it.

Output

A self-contained HTML debrief at ./.ai/reports/<slug>/index.html that:

• Surfaces concrete findings from the user's task.
• Lets the user explore, filter, or annotate them interactively.
• Generates a copyable prompt to act on the selected items.

With --md, the output is instead a plain Markdown report at ./.ai/reports/<slug>/index.md containing the same findings without the interactive UI.

Notes

• Write only under ./.ai/reports/<slug>/. Never write elsewhere.
• The HTML must be self-contained — no external CSS, JS, fonts, or images.
• Re-run with a different slug to keep parallel debriefs.
• Suggest the user add .ai/reports/ to .gitignore if debriefs shouldn't be committed.
