🛡️ CLEAN CODE: THE FOUNDATION

Philosophy: This skill is the FOUNDATION - it applies to ALL other skills. Every piece of code must pass these gates. ALGORITHMIC ELEGANCE MANDATE (CRITICAL): Never prioritize "clever" code over readable, intent-revealing engineering. AI-generated code often fails by introducing unnecessary abstractions or using vague naming conventions that obscure logic. You MUST use intent-revealing names for every variable and function. Any implementation that increases cognitive complexity without a proportional gain in performance or scalability must be rejected. Avoid "Hype-Driven Development"—proven patterns trump trending but unstable frameworks. </domain_overview> <iron_laws>

🚨 IRON LAWS

1. NO HALLUCINATED PACKAGES - Verify before import
2. NO LAZY PLACEHOLDERS - Code must be runnable
3. NO SECURITY SHORTCUTS - Production-ready defaults
4. NO OVER-ENGINEERING - Simplest solution first

📦 PROTOCOL 1: SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY

LLMs hallucinate packages that sound real but don't exist.

1. Verify before import - npm search or pip show for unfamiliar packages
2. Prefer battle-tested - lodash, date-fns, zod over obscure alternatives
3. Check npm audit / pip-audit before adding new dependencies
