What this skill does
# coding-java
## Purpose
This skill enables the AI to assist with Java 21+ development, focusing on modern features like records, sealed classes, pattern matching, and virtual threads from Project Loom, plus Spring Boot 3 applications using Maven or Gradle for building and dependency management.
## When to Use
Use this skill for projects requiring Java 21+ syntax, such as implementing sealed classes for restricted inheritance, pattern matching in switch statements, or scalable applications with virtual threads. Apply it in backend development with Spring Boot 3, or when managing builds with Maven/Gradle for enterprise-grade Java apps.
## Key Capabilities
- Handle Java records for immutable data classes: Define with `record Point(int x, int y) {}`.
- Implement sealed classes to limit subclasses: Use `sealed interface Shape permits Circle, Square {}`.
- Utilize pattern matching in switch: Example: `switch (obj) { case String s -> process(s); default -> handleDefault(); }`.
- Manage virtual threads for concurrency: Launch with `Thread.startVirtualThread(() -> task());` in Java 21+.
- Build Spring Boot 3 apps: Configure with `@SpringBootApplication` and use embedded Tomcat.
- Automate builds: Run Maven with `mvn spring-boot:run` or Gradle with `gradle bootRun` for project compilation.
## Usage Patterns
To accomplish tasks, structure code or commands precisely. For example, to create a Java record for a data model:
1. Write: `public record User(String name, int age) {}`.
2. Use in main method: `User user = new User("Alice", 30); System.out.println(user);`.
Another example: Set up a Spring Boot 3 app with virtual threads.
1. Add dependency in pom.xml: `<dependency><groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId><artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId></dependency>`.
2. In controller: `@RestController public class MyController { @GetMapping("/") public String home() { Thread.startVirtualThread(() -> logMessage()); return "Hello"; } }`.
3. Run with Maven: `mvn spring-boot:run --define spring.threads.virtual.enabled=true`.
## Common Commands/API
Use these exact commands for building and running projects:
- Maven: `mvn clean install -DskipTests` to compile; `mvn spring-boot:run` to start app.
- Gradle: `gradle build --no-daemon` for compilation; `gradle bootRun --args='--server.port=8080'` for running.
- Java API for virtual threads: `ExecutorService executor = Executors.newVirtualThreadPerTaskExecutor(); executor.submit(() -> { /* task code */ });`.
- Spring Boot API: Access endpoints like `http://localhost:8080/api/data` after defining `@GetMapping("/api/data") public ResponseEntity<?> getData() { return ResponseEntity.ok(data); }`.
- Config formats: Use application.properties for settings, e.g., `server.port=8080`; or YAML: `server: port: 8080`.
## Integration Notes
Integrate by setting environment variables for secure keys, e.g., export `$SPRING_API_KEY` for external services in Spring Boot. For IDEs, add plugins like Spring Tools Suite and configure build tools: In VS Code, use extensions for Maven/Gradle. To link with databases, add dependencies in build.gradle: `implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa'`, then configure datasource in application.yml: `spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost/dbname`. Ensure Java 21+ is set via SDK manager.
## Error Handling
Handle errors prescriptively: For build failures, check logs for "Compilation error" and fix syntax, e.g., if sealed class is misused, ensure all permitted subclasses are defined. For virtual threads, catch `InterruptedException` with `try { Thread.startVirtualThread(() -> { throw new RuntimeException(); }); } catch (Exception e) { log.error(e.getMessage()); }`. In Spring Boot, use `@ExceptionHandler` for API errors: `@ControllerAdvice public class GlobalExceptionHandler { @ExceptionHandler(Exception.class) public ResponseEntity<?> handleError(Exception e) { return ResponseEntity.status(500).body("Error: " + e.getMessage()); } }`. For Maven/Gradle, use `--debug` flag to diagnose, e.g., `mvn clean install --debug`.

jfrog
IncludedInteract with the JFrog Platform via the JFrog CLI and REST/GraphQL APIs. Use this skill when the user wants to manage Artifactory repositories, upload or download artifacts, manage builds, configure permissions, manage users and groups, work with access tokens, configure JFrog CLI servers, search artifacts, manage properties, set up replication, manage JFrog Projects, run security audits or scans, look up CVE details, query exposures scan results from JFrog Advanced Security, manage release bundles and lifecycle operations, aggregate or export platform data, or perform any JFrog Platform administration task. Also use when the user mentions jf, jfrog, artifactory, xray, distribution, evidence, apptrust, onemodel, graphql, workers, mission control, curation, advanced security, exposures, or any JFrog product name.
cupynumeric-migration-readiness
IncludedPre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.
alibabacloud-data-agent-skill
IncludedInvoke Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI to perform natural language-driven data analysis on enterprise databases. Data Agent for Analytics is an intelligent data analysis agent developed by Alibaba Cloud Database team for enterprise users. It automatically completes requirement analysis, data understanding, analysis insights, and report generation based on natural language descriptions. This tool supports: discovering data resources (instances/databases/tables) managed in DMS, initiating query or deep analysis sessions, real-time progress tracking, and retrieving analysis conclusions and generated reports. Use this Skill when users need to query databases, analyze data trends, generate data reports, ask questions in natural language, or mention "Data Agent", "data analysis", "database query", "SQL analysis", "data insights".
token-optimizer
IncludedReduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
resend-cli

Trigger on mentions of Resend CLI, `resend`, `resend doctor`, `resend emails send`, `resend domains`, `resend webhooks listen`, `resend emails receiving`, or agent-friendly terminal automation.
