**Date**: 2026-04-13  
**Prepared by**: ParzivalTD  
**Purpose**: Check which recommended skills exist on ClawHub vs. need to be built

## My Recommendations vs. Available Skills

### DAEDALUS — Chief Architect

| Skill I Recommended | Available on ClawHub? | Alternative | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| **ADR Generator** | ❌ No | None found | BUILD: Custom skill (specific to TekDek) |
| **System Diagram Creator** | ❌ No | ascii-diagram, code-to-diagram tools exist but not specific | BUILD: Custom (lightweight) |
| **Scalability Analyzer** | ✅ Maybe | `performance-profiler`, `sql-query-optimizer` | USE: `performance-profiler` + custom scalability logic |
| **Trade-off Documenter** | ❌ No | None found | BUILD: Custom skill (could be simple) |

**Priority**: ADR Generator is must-have. Others can be embedded in system prompt.

### TALOS — Technical Coder

| Skill I Recommended | Available on ClawHub? | Alternative | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| **PHP Code Optimizer** | ✅ Yes | `simplify`, `code-review-fix`, `performance-profiler` | USE: `simplify` for code cleanup, `performance-profiler` for perf |
| **Database Schema Analyzer** | ✅ Yes | `database-schema-designer`, `database-design`, `db-schema-gen`, `sql-query-optimizer` | USE: `database-schema-designer` + `sql-query-optimizer` |
| **API Contract Generator** | ✅ Partial | `promptify` (can generate docs), no direct OpenAPI tool found | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (generate from code comments) |
| **Test Coverage Analyzer** | ❌ No | None specifically for coverage | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (PHPUnit analysis) |
| **Migration Validator** | ❌ No | None found | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (check reversibility) |

**Best approach**: Use `simplify` + `performance-profiler` + `database-schema-designer`, embed the rest in prompt.

### ICARUS — Frontend Designer

| Skill I Recommended | Available on ClawHub? | Alternative | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Responsive Design Tester** | ✅ Partial | `accessibility-toolkit`, responsive design validation in browser tools | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (use Chrome DevTools integration) |
| **Accessibility Auditor** | ✅ Yes | `sovereign-accessibility-auditor`, `accessibility-check`, `accessibility-toolkit` | USE: `sovereign-accessibility-auditor` (highly rated 3.492) |
| **Performance Optimizer** | ✅ Yes | `performance-profiler` | USE: `performance-profiler` |
| **Design System Validator** | ❌ No | None found (very niche) | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (brand guidelines checklist) |
| **Interaction Pattern Suggester** | ❌ No | None found | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (UX patterns knowledge) |

**Best approach**: Use `sovereign-accessibility-auditor` + `performance-profiler`, embed the design system stuff in prompt.

---

### HEPHAESTUS — Operations & Infrastructure

| Skill I Recommended | Available on ClawHub? | Alternative | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Deployment Orchestrator** | ✅ Yes | `deploy-pilot`, `deploy-agent`, `vercel-deploy` | EVALUATE: `deploy-pilot` (looks relevant) |
| **Infrastructure Health Monitor** | ❌ No | `Appian Deployment Status` (too specific) | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (monitoring logic) |
| **Backup & DR Automator** | ❌ No | None found | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (backup procedures) |
| **Incident Response Conductor** | ❌ No | None found (but valuable) | CUSTOM: Skill or embed in prompt (incident playbooks) |
| **Capacity Planner** | ❌ No | None found | CUSTOM: Embed in system prompt (trend analysis) |

**Best approach**: Use `deploy-pilot` or similar, embed the rest in system prompts (operational procedures).

## Summary: Build vs. Buy

### ✅ USE FROM CLAWHUB (Recommend Installing)

**For Talos**:
- `simplify` — Code cleanup
- `sql-query-optimizer` — Database optimization
- `database-schema-designer` — Schema analysis

**For Icarus**:
- `sovereign-accessibility-auditor` — Accessibility (highly rated: 3.492)
- `performance-profiler` — Performance optimization

**For Hephaestus**:
- `deploy-pilot` — Deployment orchestration (evaluate)

### 🔧 BUILD CUSTOM (Embed in System Prompt)

These are better as system prompt rules than formal skills (simpler, more flexible):

**For Daedalus**:
- ✏️ ADR Generator (could be formal skill later)
- ✏️ System Diagram Creator (lightweight)
- ✏️ Trade-off Documenter

**For Talos**:
- ✏️ API Contract Generator
- ✏️ Test Coverage Analyzer
- ✏️ Migration Validator

**For Icarus**:
- ✏️ Responsive Design Tester
- ✏️ Design System Validator
- ✏️ Interaction Pattern Suggester

**For Hephaestus**:
- ✏️ Infrastructure Health Monitor
- ✏️ Backup & DR Automator
- ✏️ Incident Response Conductor

## Revised Recommendation

### Phase 1 (Day 1) — Install from ClawHub
```
clawhub install simplify
clawhub install sql-query-optimizer
clawhub install database-schema-designer
clawhub install sovereign-accessibility-auditor
clawhub install performance-profiler
clawhub install deploy-pilot  # (evaluate first)
```

**Total**: 5-6 skills, all battle-tested community solutions

### Phase 2 (Week 1) — Embed Custom Logic in System Prompts

Create custom system prompt modules for:
- Daedalus: ADR generation, trade-off documentation
- Talos: API contract generation, test coverage analysis, migration validation
- Icarus: Design system checking, responsive testing, interaction patterns
- Hephaestus: Deployment safety checks, backup procedures, incident playbooks

These are simpler as embedded logic than as formal skills.

### Phase 3 (Week 2+) — Build Formal Skills if Proven Valuable

If custom logic in prompts proves its worth, graduate to formal OpenClaw Skills:
- `adr-generator` (for Daedalus)
- `incident-conductor` (for Hephaestus)
- Any others that have high reuse value

## Questions for You

1. **ClawHub Skills**: Should I install the 5 recommended ones now, or do you want to review them first?
2. **evaluate `deploy-pilot`**: Good fit for Hephaestus, or should we keep deployment logic simpler?
3. **Custom Logic**: Approve embedding custom procedures in system prompts for Phase 2?
4. **Formal Skills**: Any of these you think should be formal OpenClaw Skills from the start?
