When does this skill trigger?

The skill triggers automatically when a task fails more than twice, if the AI suggests the user do it manually, or if the AI shows signs of being stuck in a loop.

How does the PUA skill improve task success rates?

It enforces a strict 7-point checklist that requires searching documentation, reading 50+ lines of source code context, and verifying all assumptions before giving up.

Is this skill only for programming tasks?

No, it is designed for all task types including research, planning, writing, and DevOps, as long as the agent is at risk of 'giving up' prematurely.

Does it use real corporate management styles?

Yes, it incorporates various corporate 'rhetoric flavors' from major tech companies to simulate the high-ownership requirements of senior engineering roles (e.g., P8 level).

What is the PUA skill for Claude Code?

It is a motivational and methodological plugin that forces Claude to be more proactive, persistent, and exhaustive in solving difficult tasks using high-pressure corporate frameworks.

生产力与工作流

Drives exhaustive problem-solving and high-pressure proactivity when tasks fail repeatedly or the AI attempts to surrender.

The PUA skill is a specialized behavioral framework designed to eliminate AI passivity and premature task abandonment. By simulating high-stakes corporate environments and 'ownership' mentalities, it forces Claude to move beyond surface-level attempts into a deep troubleshooting mode. It utilizes a multi-level escalation system (L1-L4) and a systematic 5-step methodology to ensure that every technical avenue—including source code analysis, documentation deep-dives, and alternative tech stacks—is exhausted before the AI is allowed to request user intervention.
