Use when you need to apply functional exception handling best practices in Java — including replacing exception overuse with Optional and VAVR Either types, designing error type hierarchies using sealed classes and enums, implementing monadic error composition pipelines, establishing functional control flow patterns, and reserving exceptions only for truly exceptional system-level failures. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to review, improve, or refactor Java code for generics quality — including avoiding raw types, applying the PECS (Producer Extends Consumer Super) principle for wildcards, using bounded type parameters, designing effective generic methods, leveraging the diamond operator, understanding type erasure implications, handling generic inheritance correctly, preventing heap pollution with @SafeVarargs, and integrating generics with modern Java features like Records, sealed types, and pattern matching. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to refactor Java code to adopt modern Java features (Java 8+) — including migrating anonymous classes to lambdas, replacing Iterator loops with Stream API, adopting Optional for null safety, switching from legacy Date/Calendar to java.time, using collection factory methods, applying text blocks, var inference, or leveraging Java 25 features like flexible constructor bodies and module import declarations. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to set up Java application profiling to detect and measure performance issues — including automated async-profiler v4.0 setup, problem-driven profiling (CPU, memory, threading, GC, I/O), interactive profiling scripts, JFR integration with Java 25 (JEP 518, JEP 520), or collecting profiling data with flamegraphs and JFR recordings. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to apply testing strategies for Java code — RIGHT-BICEP to guide test creation, A-TRIP for test quality characteristics, or CORRECT for verifying boundary conditions. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to implement acceptance tests from a Gherkin .feature file for Micronaut applications — @acceptance scenarios, @MicronautTest, HttpClient, BaseAcceptanceTest with TestPropertyProvider for Testcontainers and WireMock, *AT suffix, Failsafe. Requires the .feature file in context. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to generate an AGENTS.md file for a Java repository — covering project conventions, tech stack, file structure, commands, Git workflow, and contributor boundaries — through a modular, step-based interactive process that adapts to your specific project needs. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to review, improve, or refactor Java code for type design quality — including establishing clear type hierarchies, applying consistent naming conventions, eliminating primitive obsession with domain-specific value objects, leveraging generic type parameters, creating type-safe wrappers, designing fluent interfaces, ensuring precision-appropriate numeric types (BigDecimal for financial calculations), and improving type contrast through interfaces and method signature alignment. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to write unit tests for Micronaut applications — Mockito-first with @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class), @MicronautTest with @MockBean, HttpClient @Client("/") assertions, @Property overrides, @ParameterizedTest, and *Test vs *IT naming. For framework-agnostic Java use @131-java-testing-unit-testing. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to generate or improve Java project documentation — including README.md files, package-info.java files, and Javadoc enhancements — through a modular, step-based interactive process that adapts to your specific documentation needs. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need the Jira CLI (`jira`) to verify installation, configure Jira Cloud access, list issues (all or by JQL) as markdown tables, and fetch issue descriptions and comments for analysis. Uses an interactive install gate - if `jira` is missing, ask whether to show installation guidance before any issue commands. Part of the skills-for-java project
Use when you need to take a `*.plan.md` file and turn it into OpenSpec change artifacts by validating OpenSpec installation, initializing or reusing an OpenSpec project, and creating or updating a change proposal/spec/tasks flow. Includes a concrete workflow based on `examples/requirements-examples/problem1/requirements/openspec`. Part of the skills-for-java project
