Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

  Deploy a bounded, profile-loaded adversarial review squad at a mission point-cut
  so independent doctrine lenses converge on findings one reviewer would miss.

  "pre-spec investigation squad", "brownfield check", "second opinion on this design",
  "review squad", "run a multi-lens review".
  Does NOT handle: the implement-review loop (use spec-kitty-implement-review),
  spec/plan/tasks generation, or direct code editing by the orchestrator. It is an
  optional, charter/memory-activated enrichment — it never gates a mission.

Adversarial Squad Deployment (harness)

The operational alias for the doctrine procedure `adversarial-squad-deployment` (`packs/built-in/procedures/adversarial-squad-deployment.procedure.yaml`), which is the single owner of when, who, and how to run a squad. This skill changes **no** mission type or guard; it is a technique the orchestrator opts into.

Load the procedure

Before dispatching, load the procedure's full playbook:

spec-kitty charter context --include procedure:adversarial-squad-deployment

Apply its point-cut list, casting rule, dispatch discipline, model-tier routing, synthesis step, and findings-disposition contract as written there — this skill does not restate them.

Invocation

Invoke by name (`adversarial-squad`) with the point-cut + question, e.g. *"adversarial-squad: post-tasks anti-laziness on WP01–WP08."* This skill is the alias surface; the doctrine procedure is the canonical record of the technique.
