Agent Dev Guardrails

Mental model: The agent is an extremely confident junior dev with amnesia. This skill provides guardrails, progressive context, and automated quality checks.

This skill enforces disciplined development workflows. Essentials are here in SKILL.md; detailed patterns are in references/, loaded only when needed.

Non-Negotiables (Always Apply)

  1. Plan first, implement second. For non-trivial changes: produce plan, risks, and task checklist before editing.
  2. Work in small slices. Implement 1–2 checklist items at a time; pause for review/testing between slices.
  3. Never leave errors behind. Run checks and fix failures before moving on.
  4. Be explicit about changes. Every response that edits code must include:
    • Files changed (paths)
    • Why the change is correct
    • How it was validated (commands + outcome)
  5. If stuck for 30 minutes, stop. Ask for narrower scope or propose different approach; don't thrash.
