Frequently Asked Questions About epicodic
FAQPage SchemaWhat tasks can I accomplish with epicodic's skills?▼
You can commit staged changes with proper messages, practice test-driven development, debug systematically, write and execute implementation plans, request and receive code reviews, write documentation, and run ponytail modes that enforce minimal, standard-library-first code with repo-wide over-engineering audits.
Who are epicodic's skills designed for?▼
Software engineers and developers who want disciplined coding practices: TDD practitioners, reviewers hunting over-engineering, and teams executing multi-step plans with verification checkpoints. The ponytail suite targets anyone fighting bloat, boilerplate, and unnecessary dependencies in a codebase.
How do the ponytail skills work in practice?▼
Invoke ponytail with lite, full, or ultra intensity on any coding task to force the simplest working solution. Use ponytail-review on diffs, ponytail-audit on whole repos, ponytail-debt to harvest deferred-shortcut comments into a ledger, and ponytail-gain or ponytail-help for scoreboards and command references.
What license and cost apply to epicodic's skills?▼
The ponytail skill is explicitly licensed under MIT, permitting free use, modification, and redistribution. Other skills in the manifest do not state a license, so users should check individual repository folders before commercial redistribution.
What prerequisites or dependencies do these skills require?▼
No external dependencies are specified in the manifest. Skills are invoked by trigger phrases or slash commands within a skill-capable session; using-skills establishes discovery at conversation start, and verification-before-completion requires the ability to run project test and build commands.
