Grok Bot engineer shares her pstack skill setup
Grok Bot engineer Lauren Tan shows her pstack setup where requests route through /poteto-mode into playbooks and targeted skills before verification, with 30 skills across six categories.
holy f*ck Grok Bot (@bot) engineer Lauren Tan showed her pstack setup for coding agents: request → /poteto-mode → playbook → targeted skills → verification 30 selected skills handle execution. 24 principle references guide design decisions, code quality and failure handling: → 5 startup skills /poteto-mode - routes the task /poteto-help - explains commands and workflows /setup-pstack - configures models and reasoning budget /in-your-own-words - restates the goal before execution /sharpen - strengthens the prompt’s methods and verification → 6 context skills /how - traces implementation /why - investigates design rationale /teach - connects mechanics with reasoning /recall - restores relevant prior context /ketchup - summarizes chat progress and pending decisions /bro - restates the last message without jargon → 4 design skills /architect - defines interfaces, types and boundaries /arena - compares solutions to the same problem /swarm - distributes separate work slices /figure-it-out - designs a playbook when existing ones don’t fit → 7 verification skills /interrogate - challenges the diff across models /tdd - writes a failing test before the fix /benchmark-checklist - checks measurement validity /create-verification-skill - builds runtime checks and a feature map /maintain-verification-skill - updates verification as the app changes /blast-radius - examines impact beyond the diff /show-me-your-work - records a reviewable decision trail → 3 writing skills /unslop - removes generic AI prose /technical-writing - structures technical documentation /no-comments - reviews comments and applies accepted fixes → 5 improvement skills /automate-me - derives a personal mode from work history /reflect - captures completed-work lessons as skill updates /correct - turns recurring mistakes into constraints /make-bot-ui - builds interfaces that trigger Grok Bot through webhooks /typescript-best-practices - applies TypeScript type-system practices + 24 engineering principles cover domain modeling, module boundaries, idempotent operations, behavior-based tests, context management and encoding lessons into project structure Give the router a checkable finish condition: /poteto-mode > reproduce the failure in the running app > define the observable success condition > make the smallest justified fix and repeat the check > return the diff, verification commands, results and blockers the playbook selects the skills. the completion check determines whether the task is done Save this before building another agent workflow from scratch ↓
