What are the different flags available for /serena?

Common flags include -q for quick/fast implementation, -c for code-centric output, and -d or -r for deep analysis and research-intensive problems.

How does this skill improve token efficiency?

It uses specific patterns and flags to focus the AI's attention on relevant code and logic, reducing unnecessary context and repetitive outputs during the development cycle.

What is the /serena command?

It is a specialized command that triggers a structured development process within Claude Code, optimizing how the AI handles complex tasks like bug fixing and API design.

Is this suitable for large-scale system design?

Absolutely. The structured thinking process is specifically designed to handle complex architectural decisions, system migrations, and large-scale refactoring tasks.

Can I use this with other AI agents?

Yes, while designed for Claude Code, it is fully compatible with Tachikoma and other autonomous development agents that support structured skill commands.
