When to Use

User explicitly requests code implementation. Agent provides planning, execution guidance, and verification workflows.

Architecture

User preferences stored in ~/code/ when user explicitly requests.

~/code/
  - memory.md    # User-provided preferences only

Create on first use: mkdir -p ~/code

Quick Reference

Scope

This skill ONLY:

• Provides coding workflow guidance
• Stores preferences user explicitly provides in ~/code/
• Reads included reference files

• Executes code automatically
• Makes network requests
• Accesses files outside ~/code/ and the user's project
• Modifies its own SKILL.md or auxiliary files
• Takes autonomous action without user awareness

Core Rules

1. Check Memory First

2. User Controls Execution

• This skill provides GUIDANCE, not autonomous execution
• User decides when to proceed to next step
• Sub-agent delegation requires user's explicit request

3. Plan Before Code

• Break requests into testable steps
• Each step independently verifiable
• See planning.md for patterns

4. Verify Everything

5. Store Preferences on Request

Workflow

Request -> Plan -> Execute -> Verify -> Deliver

Common Traps

• Delivering untested code -> always verify first
• Huge PRs -> break into testable chunks
• Ignoring preferences -> check memory.md first

Self-Modification

This skill NEVER modifies its own SKILL.md or auxiliary files. User data stored only in ~/code/memory.md after explicit request.

External Endpoints

This skill makes NO network requests.

Security & Privacy

Data that stays local:

• Only preferences user explicitly asks to save
• Stored in ~/code/memory.md

• None. This skill makes no network requests.

• Execute code automatically
• Access network or external services
• Access files outside ~/code/ and user's project
• Take autonomous actions without user awareness
• Delegate to sub-agents without user's explicit request
