Resonance

Operator-grade AI agent skills for builders. A cross-tool skill library and slash-command system for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and opencode, covering strategy, design, engineering, marketing, sales, and ops.

What it is

Resonance is an AI agent skill library you drop into any project. It turns a general coding agent into a roster of specialists that follow the same expert protocol every time, on whatever tool you use.

• 50+ domain-tested skills across strategy, engineering, design, marketing, sales, ops, and research. Each skill is a structured procedure with prerequisites, a step-by-step algorithm, a Recovery path, and a Definition of Done, backed by a deep reference library. Not a prompt. A protocol.
• 29 slash commands like /plan, /grill, /build, /debug, /design, /test, /review-pr, and /ship. Type the command, or describe the job and let the specialist auto-fire.
• Cross-tool by design. One source compiles to the native format of every major agent tool. The SKILL.md / AGENTS.md open standard is the shared content; the Forge emits the per-tool command shims so /ship works after a clone in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and opencode.
• A project memory (.resonance/) the agent reads before every task and writes to after. It does not forget your architecture, your decisions, or your voice.
• Token-efficient. The shared operating standard is stated once in AGENTS.md, not repeated in every skill. Compiled skills are lean, so per-session context stays cheap.

You get consistent, high-quality output because the agent runs the same protocol every time, not because you remembered to ask nicely.

Works in your tool

The command shims are generated from one source (.forge/commands.json) by the Forge. Adding a new tool is one host-config line.

Quickstart (60 seconds)

git clone https://github.com/manusco/resonance
cd resonance

Open the folder in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or opencode. The slash commands are already committed, so they work immediately. In your AI chat:

/init          # scaffold this project's memory (.resonance/)
/plan          # turn an idea into an atomic, approved plan
/grill         # stress-test that plan before any code
/build         # execute it with a TDD loop
/ship          # release with pre-flight checks

That is the whole setup. No install step, no plugin required.

The command catalog

Every command is a structured procedure with a Definition of Done, not a loose prompt. Full map in AGENTS.md.

The skill domains

50+ skills across 7 domains, each a self-contained protocol backed by reference docs.

• Strategy: plan, grill, architect, venture, growth, researcher, gtm-thinker. Planning, system design, business modeling, and pre-build interrogation.
• Engineering: backend, frontend, mobile, database, devops, debugger, build, automation, performance, game-dev. Build, debug, and ship, with defense-in-depth and deterministic tests.
• Design: designer, studio. First-principles UI craft: optical precision, perceptual color (OKLCH), typographic hierarchy, motion with physics, the subconscious detail layer, and cross-canvas design from phone to TV.
• Marketing: seo, conversion, copywriter, paid-acquisition, analytics, lifecycle. Search and GEO, conversion, paid media, measurement and attribution, and the full lifecycle from activation to win-back.
• Sales: pipeline, cold-call, call-intelligence, account-intelligence, lead-ops, outbound-sequence. Qualification, outreach, and call analysis.
• Ops: audit, qa, security, reviewer, refactor, ship, incident, observability, librarian, handover, retro, product, productivity, voice, core, skill-author. Quality, security, delivery, reliability, incident response, and governance.
• Research: market-research. Market sizing, competitive intelligence, and positioning.

How it works

Determinism beats improvisation. When the agent runs /debug, it does not guess. It writes a reproduction script that fails 100% of the time before it writes a single line of fix, then hardens every layer the bad data crossed so the bug class cannot recur. When it runs /audit, it follows a fixed swarm order, not a vibe. Same protocol, same checklist, every time.

The Forge compiles one source to many targets. Skills are authored once as templates in .forge/skills/, then compiled per tool and per model into ready SKILL.md files, with shared sections (voice, decisions, completion, the operating standard) injected from one place. A static validator checks every skill, and each ships with at least three golden evals.

template.skill.md   x   host (tool)   x   overlay (model)   ->   SKILL.md

Rebuild after editing a template:

py .forge/forge.py build --all        # compile every skill
py .forge/forge.py commands --host all # regenerate the slash-command shims
py .forge/validate_skill.py --all .agents/skills

Use it inside your own project

Working in the Resonance repo directly is the simplest path (everything is committed and ready). To add Resonance to an existing project, copy the identity file, the skills, and the compiler, then generate the command shims:

macOS / Linux

git clone https://github.com/manusco/resonance ~/resonance-tmp
cp ~/resonance-tmp/AGENTS.md ./AGENTS.md
cp -r ~/resonance-tmp/.agents ./.agents
cp -r ~/resonance-tmp/.forge ./.forge
py ./.forge/forge.py commands --host all   # writes .claude/skills, .cursor/skills, .codex/prompts, .opencode/command
rm -rf ~/resonance-tmp

Windows (PowerShell)

git clone https://github.com/manusco/resonance $env:TEMP\resonance-tmp
Copy-Item "$env:TEMP\resonance-tmp\AGENTS.md" ".\AGENTS.md"
Copy-Item "$env:TEMP\resonance-tmp\.agents" ".\.agents" -Recurse
Copy-Item "$env:TEMP\resonance-tmp\.forge" ".\.forge" -Recurse
py .\.forge\forge.py commands --host all
Remove-Item "$env:TEMP\resonance-tmp" -Recurse -Force

Then open your AI tool and type /init. It writes your project's vision to .resonance/00_soul.md and sets up the memory structure.

Project memory

The .resonance/ folder is what makes the agent persistent across sessions. You own it; upgrades never touch it.

Upgrading

Resonance reorganizes its skill library between versions, so a plain copy leaves ghost files the agent will still read. Delete the generated trees first, then copy the new version in. Your .resonance/ memory is never part of this.

git clone https://github.com/manusco/resonance ~/resonance-tmp
rm -rf .agents .claude/skills .cursor/skills .codex/prompts .opencode/command
cp -r ~/resonance-tmp/.agents ./.agents
cp -r ~/resonance-tmp/.forge ./.forge
cp ~/resonance-tmp/AGENTS.md ./AGENTS.md
py ./.forge/forge.py commands --host all
rm -rf ~/resonance-tmp

Verify with /system-health.

Extend it

Add your own skill with the meta-skill:

/skill-author

It walks the eval-first loop: prove the gap, write the golden evals, author the template, compile with the Forge, pass the validator, and only then ship. See .forge/README.md for the compiler and .agents/skills/ops/skill-author/resonance-skill-author/ for the spec.
