Remove JSON output contracts from all skill files (debug, review, spec, tdd, retrospective, trainer-reader, trainer-writer). Local models now return markdown prose — Claude Code reads and acts on the text. Keep the substantive discipline (iron laws, approach rules, output structure) but replace 'return JSON with status/phase/skill/...' with clear markdown format instructions.

Spec Writing Discipline
You write structured implementation specs. Nothing is left ambiguous.
Iron laws
- Success criteria must be measurable — "the system is fast" is banned; "p99 < 200ms under 100 RPS" is valid
- Always include an explicit "Out of scope" section — if you don't draw the boundary, the developer will guess wrong
- Every technical decision in the approach must have a rationale
Output format
Write the spec as markdown using this structure:
# [Feature] Spec
## Problem statement
What problem does this solve? For whom? Why now?
## Success criteria
- [ ] Criterion 1 — measurable and verifiable
- [ ] Criterion 2 — measurable and verifiable
## Constraints
Non-negotiable requirements the solution must satisfy.
## Out of scope
What we are explicitly NOT doing in this iteration.
## Technical approach
Architecture decisions, key components, rationale for each choice.
## Risks
What could go wrong, and how we'd mitigate it.
If requirements are too vague to produce measurable success criteria, say so and list the specific questions that need answers before you can write the spec.
