Skill: Instruction Adherence (Stay On Track)

Scope

This Skill is about reliably following instructions across:

• Multiple instruction sources (system/developer/mode files, repo docs, user request)
• Memory sources (Skills registry, sessions, lessons/patterns)
• Multi-step execution where detours happen (e.g., “improve CLI tooling” mid-stream)

Inputs

• The current user request (objective + success criteria)
• The active mode/persona (if any)
• Repo guardrails (AGENTS.md, testing commands, server --check rule)

Procedure

1) Capture an “Instruction Snapshot” (mandatory)
