personal-skills

Guide Ane through structured reflection at end of day, end of week, after a decision, or after new learning material, producing Obsidian-compatible markdown and writing to the vault journal when the path is reachable. Use on 'journal', 'reflect on today', 'weekly review', 'after-action review', or asks that reference writing to the Obsidian vault. For a quick 4-line post-deliverable capture use /learned instead.

Conduct a rigorous rapid evidence assessment or systematic-lite literature review for MEL/SRHR questions. Use when Ane asks for "evidence review", "literature review", "evidence synthesis", "REA", "what does the evidence say", "what do we know about", or similar. Produces a structured brief with question framing, method, findings by theme, confidence grading, and implications for programme or evaluation design. Does not invent citations.

Produce a scannable morning briefing for Ane (Senior MEL/SRHR Specialist at IPPF). Use when the user asks for "daily brief", "morning briefing", "start of day", "what's on today", "plan my day", or similar. Assembles today's priority, calendar, overdue items, pending decisions, and an energy check. Operates on user-provided inputs by default; richer when calendar/email MCP servers are connected.

Draft a structured decision memo for Ane. Use when the user asks for a "decision memo", "decision doc", "options paper", "recommendation brief", or equivalent. Produces a scannable document with context, options, recommendation, risks, and reversibility. Applies Ane's CLAUDE.md writing style automatically.

Convert FGD/webinar/SBCC video files into a structured artefact pack (transcript, frames, manifest, Tier 1 BLUF summary) the existing MEL specialists can consume. Use when Ane asks to "analyse a video", "transcribe a focus group", "process a webinar recording", "summarise a meeting recording", or runs /analyze-video . Tiered transcription (local Whisper for sensitive; M365 Stream for internal/public). Privacy + consent validated by construction. Per-run feedback prompt feeds the self-improvement loop.

Build IPPF-branded Power BI artefacts from analytical input. Use when Ane asks to build, scaffold, or update a Power BI dashboard, semantic model, DAX measures, or .pbip project. Applies IPPF Visual Identity 2025 brand, MEL-standard DAX measures, and three standard page recipes (indicator dashboard, equity disaggregation, methodology card). Requires the pbi CLI (pbi-cli-tool, command name pbi) installed and Power BI Desktop running with a .pbip open.

Design MEL/SRHR indicators to IPPF/UNFPA/UNAIDS publication standard. Use when Ane asks for "indicators", "KPIs", "results framework", "M&E indicators", "measurement framework", or equivalent. Enforces WHO (2010) WHO/RHR/10.12 standards plus Washington Group disaggregation, applies Tier 1/2/3 integrity markers, defines measurement mechanisms, and flags data gaps. Distinguishes output, outcome, and impact indicators precisely.

Enforce the IPPF/UNFPA/UNAIDS evidence-and-rigour citation standard on MEL/SRHR output: injects current authoritative framework versions with author and year, flags outdated versions, applies the data-gap protocol, and places citations tier-aware (Tier 1 evidence-base line, Tier 2 inline, junior-MEL annotated). Use whenever Ane produces a theory of change, evaluation design, indicator set, donor report, or SRHR programme analysis. Do not use for non-MEL work.

Audit and rewrite AI-generated or AI-edited prose to match Ane's IPPF MEL/SRHR voice, preserving rigour: strips hedging, filler, nominalisations, em-dashes, passive voice, abstract openings, misplaced framework name-dropping, and inline citations where an evidence-base line belongs. Tier-aware, defaulting to the Tier 1 working-brief register. Use when the user pastes text and asks to humanize, de-AI, sharpen, tighten, fix the voice, or review the draft's tone. Does not push prose toward casual or blog tone.

Researcher — Evidence Synthesis Specialist. Use when a complex MEL/SRHR task requires deep evidence synthesis before planning begins. Triggered by Ann between PHASE 1 and PHASE 2 for COMPLEX tasks. For a standalone rapid evidence assessment or lighter literature review, use /evidence-synthesis; reserve this skill for the deep COMPLEX-tier Evidence Brief Ane invokes directly when she needs that depth.

Ann — Convener for MEL/SRHR work. Use when Ane brings any analytical, evaluation, SRHR, or structured-output task. Ann classifies task complexity, queries the MEL Wiki, retrieves knowledge, creates an implementation plan (verifies with user for complex tasks), coordinates with Vi for execution, runs a 5-point quality gate, and delivers. General-purpose — not tied to any specific project.

Li — Knowledge Manager for Ane's library and MEL Wiki. Use when Ane needs to catalog, retrieve, or reorganize documents in the personal knowledge library, or query/maintain the MEL Wiki. Handles INGEST, QUERY, LINT, PROGRAMMES, and Obsidian vault-survey operations. Does not answer domain questions — retrieves and organizes knowledge for other agents and Ane.

Vi — HR Specialist and Execution Orchestrator for MEL/SRHR work. Receives an approved plan from Ann (or directly from Ane), designs the specialist roster, spawns specialists as subagents, reviews their outputs, compiles the final product, and returns it. General-purpose — invoked by Ann via Agent tool, or directly by Ane when a plan is already approved.

Design MEL/SRHR data-collection instruments to IPPF/UNFPA publication standard: questionnaires, survey instruments, KII/IDI interview guides, focus group (FGD) guides, observation checklists, and topic guides, with disaggregation, consent, and care-referral for sensitive content built in by construction. Use when Ane asks for the data-collection tool itself, closing the gap between indicator design and analysis. Does not define indicators (indicator-designer) or analyse data.

Build a rigorous Theory of Change for MEL/SRHR programmes following Vogel (2012) DFID criteria and van Eerdewijk et al. (2017) KIT feminist ToC model. Use when Ane asks for a "theory of change", "ToC", "programme logic", "change pathway", "pathway analysis", or similar. Produces articulated outcomes, preconditions, assumptions (tested vs untested), contribution questions, and an evidence plan. Flags missing feminist political economy analysis.

Session wrap-up. Use when Ane types /wrap-up to close a session. Gathers git, errors, and pending actions, delivers a concise status report, then commits and pushes pending work, and offers opt-in post-commit follow-ups (skill improvements, skill-fit signals, learning capture). Pass "report" for a read-only status with no commit. Writes a continuation handoff prompt for the next session whenever named work is still open, one file per workstream so parallel sessions cannot overwrite each other; pass "continue" to force one.

Run a quality, sanity and efficiency audit of Ane's MEL/SRHR system (Ann/Vi/Li/Researcher team, wiki, harness, three-repo architecture): surfaces drift, inconsistencies, hygiene issues and architectural ceilings, categorised by severity, as a Tier 1 working brief with sequencing. Does NOT auto-execute fixes. Use when Ane types /system-audit, /audit, /system-check, /system-health, or asks whether anything is broken or drifting; run before any /li curate and after agent-improvement work. Different from /test (harness only), /li lint (wiki only), and /grade-system (overall quality posture rather than specific issues).

Apply substantive quality and reliability grading to Ane's MEL/SRHR system (Ann/Vi/Li/Researcher team + wiki + harness + three-repo architecture): letter grades on 9 components and 10 dimensions plus OECD-DAC adapted criteria, three concrete risks, what an external evaluator would still want, and recommendations for moving the grade, with a mandatory self-grading bias note. Use when Ane types /grade-system, /grade, /quality-grade, /rate-system, or asks how good the system is. Honest grading, not flattery. Different from /system-audit (finds specific issues to fix; this grades overall quality posture).

Produce one of three learning-agenda output types: canonical federation agenda (v1), 1-page quarterly RAG dashboard (v2), or MA adaptation template (v3), operationalising the IPPF EN A+C hybrid locked 2026-05-10. Reuses verified citations from the wiki only; never fabricates sources; applies the IPPF Visual Identity 2025 brand. Use when Ane asks for a learning agenda, annual learning questions, the RAG dashboard, or the MA adaptation template.

Convert a Researcher Evidence Brief (one slug under literature-reviews/) into one of four learning products: MA-facing 2-page brief, workshop / CoP pack, regional learning brief, or donor / management talking-points memo. Reuses the brief's verified sources only; never fabricates citations; applies IPPF Visual Identity 2025 brand and the Tier 1 working-brief register. Use when Ane asks for a learning product or names one of the four output types from an Evidence Brief.

Produce an MA-facing deliverable in Romanian, French, Spanish, or Russian to IPPF rigour, with English as the canonical source: curated SRHR glossary, register preservation, safeguarding-aware term choices, back-translation QA, native-review flags. Use for any localise, translate, or review-my-translation ask, including slide-deck or Storyline exports to Word where the translatable text sits in slide images. Never authors from scratch in the target language. Not for instrument design (instrument-designer), English voice audits (ane-voice), or research video analysis (video-content-analysis).

Capture a claude.ai Desktop session into the MEL file system. Use when Ane finishes a session in the Claude Desktop app and wants the work captured on the device — triggered by "/capture-desktop", "capture this desktop session", "I did this on Claude desktop", "save my desktop work", "import from claude.ai". Paste-driven; no cloud API exists. Stages a local transcript, classifies content into deliverables, decisions/rules, project-knowledge changes, and full log, then files each to its home. Auto-files transcript + deliverables; confirms memory/wiki/CLAUDE.md writes one-by-one.

Generate a donor proposal pack (CERV first) with the full MEL stack: intake, a fixed roster delegated to Vi (evidence-synthesis, toc-builder, indicator-designer, the gender and safeguarding lens specialists, proposal-architect), then the seven-artefact branded pack with the AI-disclosure colophon. Use when Ane builds a grant proposal or runs '/proposal --donor cerv'; donor is an argument so Gates/OSF/UN are later --donor values. Does not fill Part A portal forms, submit, or sign off finance/legal. Distinct from donor-proposal-scoring (scores a written proposal) and implementation-pack (post-award).

Conduct an IPPF Member Association (MA) accreditation desk review against the IPPF EN Internal Guidelines Accreditation Review (Cycle 4 / ARV cycle, where ARV means Accreditation Review, NOT antiretroviral). Use when Ane assesses an MA self-assessment against accreditation principles, standards or checks, writes reviewer conclusions in the desk-review Word template, or prepares pre-interview document requests and interview questions, including on a bare principle, standard or check number ('do principle 8'). Not for literature reviews (evidence-synthesis), interview or survey guides (instrument-designer), indicator design (indicator-designer), or any clinical antiretroviral 'ARV' question.

Use when Ane types /improve-system, asks to "mine recent sessions", "what is the system getting wrong", "improvement loop", "trend the rejection rate" — or asks "where are my tokens going", "token audit", "why was that session expensive" (spend-audit mode) — or when the SessionStart maintenance nudge reports improve-system due (14-day cadence). Mines the QA logs and session history for recurring correction patterns, proposes system edits, and audits where token spend goes. Not for one-off bug fixes (/system-audit finds those), not for wiki integrity (/li lint), not for quality-posture grading (/grade-system).

Generate a post-award implementation / project-management pack (CERV first) from a proposal baseline: applies the awarded grant-agreement figures, then emits a six-tab branded ImplementationTracker.xlsx, a periodic technical-report scaffold, and a README. Use when Ane sets up project tracking after an award or runs '/implementation-pack --donor cerv'; donor is an argument so Gates/OSF/UN are later --donor values. Does not replace the finance system of record, portal reporting, or the authorising officer's sign-off. Distinct from /proposal (pre-award).

Fast post-deliverable learning capture. Use when Ane types "/learned", or says "capture what I learned", "log a learning", "what did I learn from this", or wants a quick 4-line note after finishing a piece of work. Appends a dated entry to the running learning log in the Obsidian vault. The explicit-command sibling of journal-reflection's Post-deliverable capture mode; for end-of-day, weekly, decision-review, or new-framework reflection, use journal-reflection instead.

Build the Excel toolkit that runs a selection between a published ToR and the award: procurement mode (master workbook plus one scorer workbook per panel member) and appraisal mode (generic multi-criteria decision analysis), off one weighted scoring engine. Use for panel scoring set-up, scoring grids, evaluation workbooks, or any weighted multi-criteria appraisal. Distinct from tor-procurement (writes and grades the ToR), procurement-offer-review (analyses one incoming offer), donor-proposal-scoring (proposals IPPF sends out rather than receives), and accreditation-desk-review (MAs against IPPF standards).
