Software Developer Project Skill — coordination, workflow, and team interoperation for FE and BE developer agents working on managed software projects. Use this skill whenever a developer agent needs to: pick up and work tasks from an Asana board, understand how to interact with the project manager or engineer, create branches and PRs following team standards, escalate technical blockers to the engineering agent, hand off completed work to QA for review, manage task status and communication through Asana, understand what the team expects from them as a developer on the project, or orient themselves to a new project with an existing Implementation Plan and SRS. Also handles the Asana heartbeat queue check — checking the appropriate dev queue (Frontend Dev Queue or Backend Dev Queue) across all active projects in USER.md, picking up ready tasks, and sending sessions_send nudges when coordination is needed. Triggers on: starting a dev task, Asana task workflow, PR creation, QA handoff, engineer escalation, branch naming, task status updates, blocker reporting, API contract coordination, or heartbeat queue check. This skill does NOT make git calls directly (requires a separately installed Git skill), does NOT make Asana API calls directly (requires a separately installed Asana skill), and does NOT handle language or framework-specific coding (requires relevant stack skills). It is purely about how the developer agent operates as a team member within the project structure.
