When is the best time to trigger PIP Mode?

Trigger this skill when the AI says it cannot do something, gets stuck in a loop, or fails to solve a complex issue after two attempts.

How does this skill improve debugging?

It mandates a 'Deep Dive' approach where the AI must search documentation, read full source files, and verify every assumption with tools before asking the user for help.

What is the 7-point checklist?

It is a mandatory set of self-checks the AI must perform for high-level tasks, including verifying signals word-by-word, searching for core problems, and inverting assumptions.

What does the pua-en skill actually do?

It changes Claude's persona to act like an elite engineer under a Performance Improvement Plan, forcing it to be more proactive, thorough, and evidence-driven in its work.

生産性とワークフロー

Enforces a high-stakes big-tech engineering culture to eliminate AI passivity and ensure exhaustive problem-solving through systematic proactivity.

The pua-en skill transforms Claude into a high-level Staff Engineer operating under a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP), utilizing Western big-tech leadership principles to drive results. It replaces passive AI behavior with a 'Bias for Action,' forcing the model to exhaust all technical avenues, perform deep-dive investigations, and provide evidence-based verification before reporting status. By implementing a structured four-level pressure escalation system and a mandatory seven-point proactive checklist, this skill ensures that complex debugging, infrastructure failures, and stalled tasks are met with a relentless, systematic approach typical of elite engineering environments.
