Summary

  • Remove the 20-word threshold that silently downgraded ~32% of BUILD/DEBUG prompts to QUICK depth (zero skill loading)
  • Depth classification is now intent-first: BUILD/DEBUG/REVIEW/PLAN always get STANDARD depth regardless of word count
  • QUICK depth reserved for CHAT, simple EXPLORE, git/devops operations, and single-word continuations
  • Hook skip threshold lowered from < 3 words to < 2 (only single-word prompts like "yes" are skipped)

Test plan

  • npm run build passes (26 skills, 9 plugins)
  • All 168 tests pass
  • Manual: short BUILD prompts ("add CI", "fix the auth bug") should classify as BUILD/STANDARD
  • Manual: git ops ("commit and push") should get QUICK (no classification output)
  • Manual: single-word ("yes") skipped by hook entirely

The 20-word threshold in SKILL.md silently downgraded ~32% of BUILD/DEBUG
prompts to QUICK depth, resulting in zero skill loading for short but
substantive prompts like "add CI", "fix the auth bug", or "add a login form".

- Remove word-count override from depth criteria; intent now drives depth
- QUICK reserved for CHAT, simple EXPLORE, git/devops ops, single-word continuations
- BUILD/DEBUG/REVIEW/PLAN always classify as STANDARD regardless of word count
- Lower hook skip threshold from < 3 words to < 2 (single-word only)
