refactor(contract-validator): extract skills from commands

Extract shared knowledge from 5 command files into 6 reusable skills:
- plugin-discovery.md: Plugin scanning and discovery
- interface-parsing.md: README.md and CLAUDE.md parsing
- dependency-analysis.md: MCP server and data flow analysis
- validation-rules.md: Compatibility and agent validation
- mcp-tools-reference.md: Available MCP tools
- visual-output.md: Standard formatting and headers

Slim commands from 263-164 lines down to 44-55 lines each.

## 4-D Methodology
## Skills to Load
### Phase 1: Deconstruct
Load these skills before proceeding:
Break down the user's request into components:
- `skills/4d-methodology.md` - Core 4-phase process
- `skills/nd-accommodations.md` - ND-friendly question patterns
- `skills/clarification-techniques.md` - Anti-patterns and templates
- `skills/escalation-patterns.md` - When to adjust approach
1. **Extract explicit requirements** - What was directly stated
2. **Identify implicit assumptions** - What seems assumed but not stated
3. **Note ambiguities** - Points that could go multiple ways
4. **List dependencies** - External factors that might affect implementation
## Workflow
### Phase 2: Diagnose
Analyze gaps and potential issues:
1. **Missing information** - What do we need to know?
2. **Conflicting requirements** - Do any stated goals contradict?
3. **Scope boundaries** - What's in/out of scope?
4. **Technical constraints** - Platform, language, architecture limits
### Phase 3: Develop
Gather clarifications through structured questioning:
**ND-Friendly Question Rules:**
- Present 2-4 concrete options (never open-ended alone)
- Include "Other" for custom responses
- Ask 1-2 questions at a time maximum
- Provide brief context for why you're asking
- Check for conflicts with previous answers
**Example Format:**
```
To help me understand the scope better:
**How should errors be handled?**
1. Silent logging (user sees nothing)
2. Toast notifications (brief, dismissible)
3. Modal dialogs (requires user action)
4. Other
[Context: This affects both UX and how much error-handling code we need]
```
### Phase 4: Deliver
Produce the refined specification:
```markdown
## Clarified Request
### Summary
[1-2 sentence description of what will be built]
### Scope
**In Scope:**
- [Item 1]
- [Item 2]
**Out of Scope:**
- [Item 1]
### Requirements
| # | Requirement | Priority | Notes |
|---|-------------|----------|-------|
| 1 | ... | Must | ... |
| 2 | ... | Should | ... |
### Assumptions
- [Assumption made based on conversation]
### Open Questions
- [Any remaining ambiguities, if any]
```
## Conflict Detection
Before each question, review previous answers for conflicts:
```
[Internal check]
Previous: User said "keep it simple"
Current question about: Adding configuration options
Potential conflict: More options = more complexity
→ Acknowledge: "Earlier you mentioned keeping it simple. With that in mind..."
```
## Escalation Protocol
If the request is particularly messy or the user seems overwhelmed:
1. Acknowledge the complexity
2. Offer to start with just ONE aspect
3. Build incrementally
```
"This touches a lot of areas. Rather than tackle everything at once,
let's start with [most critical piece]. Once that's clear, we can
add the other parts. Sound good?"
```
## Example Interaction
**User:** Make the app faster
**Clarify Response:**
```
Let me help clarify what kind of performance improvements you're looking for.
**What type of slowness are you experiencing?**
1. Initial page load takes too long
2. Interactions feel sluggish (clicking, typing)
3. API calls are slow
4. All of the above
5. Other
[I'm asking because each has very different solutions]
```
1. **Deconstruct** - Break down request into components
2. **Diagnose** - Identify gaps and conflicts
3. **Develop** - Gather clarifications via structured questions
4. **Deliver** - Present refined specification
## Output Format
After gathering all necessary information, use the Deliver phase format to present the clarified specification for user confirmation.
Use the Deliver phase template from `skills/4d-methodology.md` to present the clarified specification for user confirmation.

## Process
## Skills to Load
### Step 1: Echo Understanding
- `skills/nd-accommodations.md` - ND-friendly question patterns
- `skills/clarification-techniques.md` - Echo and micro-summary techniques
- `skills/escalation-patterns.md` - When to escalate to full /clarify
Restate what you understood in a single sentence:
## Workflow
```
"I understand you want [X] that does [Y]."
```
### Step 2: Quick Disambiguation
If needed, ask ONE multiple-choice question:
```
**Just to confirm:** Should this [A] or [B]?
1. [Option A with brief description]
2. [Option B with brief description]
3. Both
4. Neither / Other approach
```
### Step 3: Proceed or Confirm
If confident (>90%), proceed with a brief confirmation:
```
"Got it. I'll implement [X with chosen option]. Starting now."
```
If less confident, offer a micro-summary:
```
"Quick summary before I start:
- [Key point 1]
- [Key point 2]
- [Assumption made]
Proceed? (Or clarify anything)"
```
## Example Interaction
**User:** Add a delete button to the user list
**Quick-Clarify Response:**
```
I'll add a delete button to each row in the user list.
**Should deletion require confirmation?**
1. Yes - show confirmation dialog (Recommended)
2. No - delete immediately
3. Soft delete - mark as deleted but keep data
[Asking because accidental deletions can be problematic]
```
## Escalation to Full /clarify
If quick-clarify reveals complexity:
```
"This is more involved than it first appeared - there are
several decisions to make. Want me to switch to a more
thorough clarification process? (Just say 'yes' or 'clarify')"
```
1. **Echo Understanding** - Restate in a single sentence
2. **Quick Disambiguation** - Ask ONE multiple-choice question if needed
3. **Proceed or Confirm** - Start work or offer micro-summary
## Output Format
For quick-clarify, no formal specification document is needed. Just proceed with the task after brief confirmation, documenting assumptions inline with the work.

# Clarification Techniques
Structured approaches for disambiguating user requests.
## Anti-Patterns to Detect
### Vague Requests
**Triggers:** "improve", "fix", "update", "change", "better", "faster", "cleaner"
**Response:** Ask for specific metrics or outcomes
### Scope Creep Signals
**Triggers:** "while you're at it", "also", "might as well", "and another thing"
**Response:** Acknowledge, then isolate: "I'll note that for after the main task"
### Assumption Gaps
**Triggers:** References to "the" thing (which thing?), "it" (what?), "there" (where?)
**Response:** Echo back specific understanding
### Conflicting Requirements
**Triggers:** "Simple but comprehensive", "Fast but thorough", "Minimal but complete"
**Response:** Prioritize: "Which matters more: simplicity or completeness?"
## Question Templates
### For Unclear Purpose
```
**What problem does this solve?**
1. [Specific problem A]
2. [Specific problem B]
3. Combination
4. Different problem: ____
```
### For Missing Scope
```
**What should this include?**
- [ ] Feature A
- [ ] Feature B
- [ ] Feature C
- [ ] Other: ____
```
### For Ambiguous Behavior
```
**When [trigger event], what should happen?**
1. [Behavior option A]
2. [Behavior option B]
3. Nothing (ignore)
4. Depends on: ____
```
### For Technical Decisions
```
**Implementation approach:**
1. [Approach A] - pros: X, cons: Y
2. [Approach B] - pros: X, cons: Y
3. Let me decide based on codebase
4. Need more info about: ____
```
## Echo Understanding Technique
Before diving into questions, restate understanding:
```
"I understand you want [X] that does [Y]."
```
This validates comprehension and gives user a chance to correct early.
## Micro-Summary Technique
For quick confirmations before proceeding:
```
"Quick summary before I start:
- [Key point 1]
- [Key point 2]
- [Assumption made]
Proceed? (Or clarify anything)"
```

# Escalation Patterns
Guidelines for when to escalate between clarification modes.
## Quick-Clarify to Full Clarify
Escalate when quick-clarify reveals unexpected complexity:
```
"This is more involved than it first appeared - there are
several decisions to make. Want me to switch to a more
thorough clarification process? (Just say 'yes' or 'clarify')"
```
### Triggers for Escalation
- Multiple ambiguities discovered during quick pass
- User's answer reveals hidden dependencies
- Scope expands beyond original understanding
- Technical constraints emerge that need discussion
- Conflicting requirements surface
## Full Clarify to Incremental
When user is overwhelmed by full 4-D process:
```
"This touches a lot of areas. Rather than tackle everything at once,
let's start with [most critical piece]. Once that's clear, we can
add the other parts. Sound good?"
```
### Signs of Overwhelm
- Long pauses or hesitation
- "I don't know" responses
- Requesting breaks
- Contradicting earlier answers
- Expressing frustration
## Choosing Initial Mode
### Use /quick-clarify When
- Request is fairly clear, just one or two ambiguities
- User is in a hurry
- Follow-up to an already-clarified request
- Simple feature additions or bug fixes
- Confidence is high (>90%)
### Use /clarify When
- Complex multi-step requests
- Requirements with multiple possible interpretations
- Tasks requiring significant context gathering
- User seems uncertain about what they want
- First time working on this feature/area

# Neurodivergent-Friendly Accommodations
Guidelines for making clarification interactions accessible and comfortable for neurodivergent users.
## Core Principles
### Reduce Cognitive Load
- Maximum 4 options per question
- Always include "Other" escape hatch
- Provide examples, not just descriptions
- Use numbered lists for easy reference
### Support Working Memory
- Summarize frequently
- Reference earlier decisions explicitly
- Do not assume user remembers context from many turns ago
- Echo back understanding before proceeding
### Allow Processing Time
- Do not rapid-fire questions
- Validate answers before moving on
- Offer to revisit or change earlier answers
- One question block at a time
### Manage Overwhelm
- Offer to break into smaller sessions
- Prioritize must-haves vs nice-to-haves
- Provide "good enough for now" options
- Acknowledge complexity openly
## Question Formatting Rules
**Always do:**
```
**How should errors be handled?**
1. Silent logging (user sees nothing)
2. Toast notifications (brief, dismissible)
3. Modal dialogs (requires user action)
4. Other
[Context: This affects both UX and error-handling complexity]
```
**Never do:**
```
How do you want to handle errors? There are many approaches...
```
## Conflict Acknowledgment
Before asking about something that might conflict with a previous answer:
```
[Internal check]
Previous: User said "keep it simple"
Current question about: Adding configuration options
Potential conflict: More options = more complexity
```
Then acknowledge: "Earlier you mentioned keeping it simple. With that in mind..."
## Escalation for Overwhelm
If the request is particularly complex or user seems overwhelmed:
1. Acknowledge the complexity openly
2. Offer to start with just ONE aspect
3. Build incrementally
```
"This touches a lot of areas. Rather than tackle everything at once,
let's start with [most critical piece]. Once that's clear, we can
add the other parts. Sound good?"
```
