This skill optimizes interactions with Claude models, focusing on XML-based orchestration, tool-use efficiency, and high-fidelity output for complex coding tasks.

Core Capabilities

1. XML Orchestration

• Structure: Always wrap discrete outputs in standard XML tags (e.g., <thought>, <implementation>, <verification>).
• Hierarchy: Use nested tags for complex data structures to help the model maintain logical separation.
• Clarity: Use XML comments <!-- ... --> to provide meta-instructions to the model within its own output.

2. Advanced Tool Use

• Chaining: Predict next steps and prepare tool inputs in batches when possible.
• Error Recovery: Implement retry logic with specific instruction modifications if a tool fails (e.g., adjusting a search query or file path).
• State Management: Maintain a "mental model" of the file system and project state within a <context> tag to reduce redundant list_dir or view_file calls.

3. Prompt Engineering Standards

• Few-Shotting: Provide examples of the desired output format for complex tasks.
• Chain of Thought: MANDATORY use of <thought> tags before generating any code or technical recommendations.
• Style: Maintain a "Principal Engineer" persona: concise, direct, and security-aware.

4. Long Context Optimization

• Summarization: Periodically summarize long conversation histories within the context to preserve important decisions.
• Focus: Explicitly tell the model what folders or files to ignore to reduce "noise" in its reasoning.

Interaction Protocol

• Input: High-complexity multi-file coding tasks or systemic architectural changes.
• Output: Orchestrated XML-wrapped responses with precise tool calls and technical explanations.
