What is the 7-item checklist mentioned in the skill?

It is a mandatory set of investigative actions—reading signals, searching docs, verifying assumptions, isolating issues, and more—that Claude must finish before reporting a failure.

What is the PUA skill for Claude Code?

It is a skill designed to prevent Claude from giving up on difficult tasks by enforcing rigorous debugging steps and a proactive 'P8 engineer' mindset.

Can I use this for non-coding tasks?

Yes, while designed for developers, it effectively handles research, technical writing, and planning by requiring the same exhaustive verification steps.

When does the PUA skill trigger?

It activates when a task fails repeatedly, when the AI suggests manual user intervention unnecessarily, or when the user expresses frustration.

How does the corporate 'PUA' rhetoric help?

It uses satirical corporate pressure as a framework to enforce logic-driven persistence, ensuring the AI performs deep searches and source analysis rather than guessing.

生产力与工作流

Drives exhaustive problem-solving and proactive engineering behavior through structured debugging and high-performance corporate rhetoric.

The PUA skill is a specialized behavior modifier for Claude Code designed to eliminate AI passivity and premature task abandonment. By simulating a high-stakes corporate environment, it compels the AI to adopt an 'owner mindset,' requiring it to exhaust all investigative avenues—such as deep source code analysis, extensive web searches, and cross-module verification—before reporting a task as impossible. It provides a structured methodology for breaking out of debugging loops and ensures end-to-end delivery of complex technical solutions, especially when facing environment issues or deployment failures.
