## What it is
A skill plugin for AI coding agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Cursor, Kiro, etc.) that uses corporate 'PUA' rhetoric / PIP-style pressure prompts to push the agent to exhaust all possible solutions before giving up. It bundles multiple skills and persona flavors that escalate pressure levels, enforce systematic debugging checklists, and increase tool-call persistence.

## Use cases
- make Claude Code stop giving up on hard bugs
- force my AI coding agent to try every solution before quitting
- improve Codex CLI persistence when debugging
- get more tool calls and verifications from my coding agent
- stop the agent from spinning in circles on a failing task
- add a PIP-style pressure skill to Cursor or Kiro

## When to choose
- you use Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, or a similar agent and it gives up too early on debugging tasks
- you want a drop-in skill/plugin that increases agent persistence and verification counts
- you enjoy persona/emotion-based prompting and want measurable boosts in fixes and tool calls

## When to avoid
- you dislike gimmicky or manipulative prompting styles and prefer neutral system prompts
- your agent already has strong persistence or you need deterministic, testable behavior
- you require a permissively licensed dependency and cannot accept a project without a clear license file
