What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by avelikiy/great_cto in skills/verticals/SKILL.md and read by Ahel’s review.

Each file below is the domain brief for one kind of product. They are references, not separate skills: one line in every session's skill list instead of sixteen paragraphs, and the full text only when a product needs it.

How to read it

From a great_cto checkout the files sit next to this one (skills/verticals/<file>). From an installed plugin, resolve the newest cached version:

# <file> is the row that applies, e.g. retail
cat "$(ls ~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/great_cto/*/skills/verticals/<file>.md 2>/dev/null | awk -F'/plugins/cache/' '{split($NF,p,"/"); print p[3], $0}' | sort -V | tail -1 | cut -d' ' -f2-)"

Apply what it says to the spec: its vocabulary in the names, its must-model entities in the data model, its "what a naive build gets wrong" list as review items. If no row fits, read nothing — a near-miss vertical imports the wrong rules.
