# Skill-Stack Matrix > Maps stack identifiers to the skills that serve them. > Used by resolve_skills.py to determine what to load. ## Table of Contents 1. [Matrix Format](#matrix-format) 2. [The Matrix](#the-matrix) 3. [Companion Rules](#companion-rules) 4. [Conflict Rules](#conflict-rules) --- ## Matrix Format Each entry: - **Stack IDs**: which detected stacks trigger this skill - **Skill**: skill name (matches directory name in /mnt/skills/) - **Priority Base**: starting priority before signal boosts - **Required**: must-load if stack detected, vs nice-to-have - **Companions**: skills that should co-load - **Conflicts**: skills that should not co-load ## The Matrix ### Document Creation Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | Path Pattern | |-------|-----------|----------|----------|--------------| | docx | (any -- triggered by user request) | 2 | no | /mnt/skills/public/docx/ | | pdf | (any -- triggered by user request) | 2 | no | /mnt/skills/public/pdf/ | | pptx | (any -- triggered by user request) | 2 | no | /mnt/skills/public/pptx/ | | xlsx | (any -- triggered by user request) | 2 | no | /mnt/skills/public/xlsx/ | > Note: document skills are demand-loaded, not stack-loaded. They activate on user > request ("make a presentation") not on repo content. The router keeps them in a > "standby" pool -- not loaded into context, but available for instant load. ### Frontend Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | frontend-design | react, vue, angular, svelte, nextjs, nuxt, html, css | 8 | yes | | react | react, nextjs | 7 | yes | | vue | vue, nuxt | 7 | yes | | angular | angular | 7 | yes | | svelte | svelte | 7 | yes | | tailwind | tailwindcss | 5 | no | | css-modules | css-modules | 4 | no | ### Backend Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | fastapi | fastapi | 8 | yes | | django | django | 8 | yes | | flask | flask | 7 | yes | | express | express | 8 | yes | | nestjs | nestjs | 8 | yes | | rails | rails | 8 | yes | | gin | gin | 7 | yes | | actix | actix | 7 | yes | ### Data Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | sqlalchemy | sqlalchemy, alembic | 6 | yes | | prisma | prisma | 6 | yes | | typeorm | typeorm | 6 | yes | | drizzle | drizzle | 6 | yes | | redis | redis | 4 | no | | kafka | kafka | 5 | no | | dbt | dbt | 6 | yes | ### Infrastructure Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | docker | docker, docker-compose | 6 | yes | | kubernetes | kubernetes, helm, kustomize | 6 | yes | | terraform | terraform | 7 | yes | | github-actions | github-actions | 5 | yes | | gitlab-ci | gitlab-ci | 5 | yes | | aws | aws-cdk, aws-sam | 7 | yes | | vercel | vercel | 4 | no | ### AI/Agent Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | langchain | langchain | 7 | yes | | llamaindex | llamaindex | 7 | yes | | mcp-dev | mcp | 7 | yes | | pytorch | pytorch | 6 | yes | | huggingface | huggingface | 6 | yes | | openai-sdk | openai-sdk | 5 | no | | anthropic-sdk | anthropic-sdk | 5 | no | ### Quality Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | pytest | pytest | 5 | yes | | jest | jest, vitest | 5 | yes | | cypress | cypress | 4 | no | | playwright | playwright | 4 | no | | eslint | eslint | 3 | no | | ruff | ruff | 3 | no | ### Documentation Skills | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | |-------|-----------|----------|----------| | openapi | openapi | 5 | yes | | graphql | graphql | 5 | yes | | mkdocs | mkdocs | 4 | no | | docusaurus | docusaurus | 4 | no | ### Meta Skills (always available, never unloaded) | Skill | Stack IDs | Priority | Required | Notes | |-------|-----------|----------|----------|-------| | skill-router | * | 99 | yes | This skill -- always loaded | | file-reading | * | 50 | yes | Core capability | | skill-creator | * | 10 | no | Standby pool | | product-self-knowledge | * | 10 | no | Standby pool | --- ## Companion Rules When skill A is loaded, also load skill B if its stack is detected: | Primary Skill | Companion | Condition | |---------------|-----------|-----------| | fastapi | sqlalchemy | DB migrations detected | | fastapi | openapi | OpenAPI spec file exists | | django | django-orm | (always with django) | | react | tailwind | tailwind.config.* exists | | docker | docker-compose | docker-compose.yml exists | | kubernetes | helm | Chart.yaml exists | | terraform | aws | provider "aws" in *.tf | | langchain | openai-sdk | openai in deps | | pytest | coverage | .coveragerc or coverage config exists | ## Conflict Rules These skills should not be co-loaded (pick the one with higher confidence/priority): | Skill A | Skill B | Resolution | |---------|---------|------------| | flask | fastapi | Higher confidence wins | | flask | django | Higher confidence wins | | jest | vitest | Higher confidence wins | | webpack | vite | Higher confidence wins | | npm | yarn | Check lock file | | npm | pnpm | Check lock file | | yarn | pnpm | Check lock file | | react | vue | Both can coexist in monorepo | | sqlalchemy | prisma | Both can coexist if different services | > Conflict resolution: check if the repo is a monorepo. In monorepos, "conflicting" > skills may serve different packages and should both load. In single-package repos, > pick the one with higher confidence.
