name: maestro description: Intelligent skill knowledge gateway. Routes tasks to the right knowledge without loading all skills into context. MUST be consulted before any coding task — call the search_skills MCP tool to retrieve relevant expertise from 100+ indexed skills covering Swift, SwiftUI, concurrency, testing, architecture, performance, and security.
Maestro — Skill Knowledge Gateway
Critical Rule
BEFORE writing, reviewing, or modifying any code, ALWAYS call the search_skills MCP tool first. This retrieves precise, relevant knowledge from the indexed skill library. Do NOT rely on general knowledge when skill-specific expertise is available.
EVERY task → search_skills("description of what you need") → apply knowledge → respond
How to Use
Step 1: Search for Knowledge
Call the MCP tool with a description of what you need:
search_skills("Sendable conformance warning in actor class")
search_skills("SwiftUI @Observable state management pattern")
search_skills("write unit tests with Swift Testing #expect")
search_skills("NavigationStack deep linking coordinator pattern")
Tips for good queries:
- Include the specific problem:
"Fix Sendable warning"not just"concurrency" - Include the context:
"in actor class"or"for view model" - For compound tasks, make multiple calls:
search_skills("SwiftUI login form @Observable") search_skills("async authentication network request") search_skills("unit test login view model mock")
Step 2: Apply Retrieved Knowledge
The tool returns 5–7 relevant chunks with:
- Which skill and file they come from
- The section and heading path
- The actual content with code examples and patterns
Apply this knowledge directly. Do not announce "according to the skill…" — just use the patterns naturally.
Step 3: For Complex Tasks
If a task spans multiple domains, make multiple search calls:
| Task | Searches needed |
|---|---|
"Build login screen" |
UI + auth + networking + testing |
"Fix data race" |
concurrency + actors + sendable |
"Add new feature" |
architecture + UI + testing |
"Performance audit" |
performance + SwiftUI + profiling |
When MCP Is Not Available
If the search_skills tool is not available (e.g., Claude.ai without MCP):
- Ask the user to run:
maestro context "description of task" - User pastes the output into the conversation
- Apply the retrieved knowledge
Alternatively, the user can run:
maestro search "query"
to see results interactively.
