deliver
Inner-loop composer. Takes one backlog item to merge-ready code. Composes
/shape → /implement → {/code-review + /ci + /refactor + /qa} (clean loop)
and stops. Does not push, does not merge, does not deploy. Communicates
with callers via exit code + receipt.json — no stdout parsing.
Every run also ends with a tight operator-facing brief plus a full
/reflect session.
Use when: building a shaped ticket, "deliver this", "make it merge-ready",
driving one backlog item through review + CI + QA.
Trigger: /deliver.

deploy
Ship merged code to a deploy target. Thin router — detects target from
repo config, dispatches to platform-specific recipe, captures a
structured receipt (sha, version, URL, rollback handle), stops when the
target reports healthy. Does not monitor (→ /monitor), does not triage
(→ /diagnose), does not decide when to deploy.
Use when: "deploy", "ship this", "ship to prod", "release", "push to
staging", "deploy this branch", "release cut".
Trigger: /deploy, /ship-it, /release.

implement
Atomic TDD build skill. Takes a context packet (shaped ticket) and
produces code + tests on a feature branch. Red → Green → Refactor.
Does not shape, review, QA, or ship — single concern: spec to green tests.
Use when: "implement this spec", "build this", "TDD this", "code this up",
"write the code for this ticket", after /shape has produced a context packet.
Trigger: /implement, /build (alias).

refactor
Branch-aware simplification and refactoring workflow. On feature branches,
compare against base and simplify the diff before merge. On primary branch,
scan the full codebase, research prior art, and identify the highest-impact
simplification opportunity.
Use when: "refactor this", "simplify this diff", "clean this up",
"reduce complexity", "pay down tech debt", "make this easier to maintain",
"make this more elegant", "reduce the number of states", "clarify naming".
Trigger: /refactor.
