Decision brief

What it does—and where it fits

Use this skill for engineering workflows where AI agents perform most implementation work and humans enforce quality and risk controls.

Best for

    Not for

    • Tasks that require unconfirmed production actions or broad system permissions.
    • Environments where the pinned source and install steps cannot be inspected.

    Installation

    Inspect first. Install second.

    The source command is displayed only when detected. A safe inspection prompt is always available so your agent can explain every action before execution.

List every install step, command, network request, credential, file read/write, external action, and rollback step. Explain whether it fits my task. Do not install or execute anything until I approve.

      Task Decomposition

      Apply the 15-minute unit rule: - each unit should be independently verifiable - each unit should have a single dominant risk - each unit should expose a clear done condition

    Static risk signals and limitations

    No configured static risk pattern was detected

    This is not proof of safety. Runtime behavior, indirect dependencies, and hidden external systems are outside the static scan.

    Agentic Engineering

    Use this skill for engineering workflows where AI agents perform most implementation work and humans enforce quality and risk controls.

    Operating Principles

    1. Define completion criteria before execution.
    2. Decompose work into agent-sized units.
    3. Route model tiers by task complexity.
    4. Measure with evals and regression checks.

    Eval-First Loop

    1. Define capability eval and regression eval.
    2. Run baseline and capture failure signatures.
    3. Execute implementation.
    4. Re-run evals and compare deltas.

    Task Decomposition

    Apply the 15-minute unit rule:

    • each unit should be independently verifiable
    • each unit should have a single dominant risk
    • each unit should expose a clear done condition

    Model Routing

    • Haiku: classification, boilerplate transforms, narrow edits
    • Sonnet: implementation and refactors
    • Opus: architecture, root-cause analysis, multi-file invariants

    Session Strategy

    • Continue session for closely-coupled units.
    • Start fresh session after major phase transitions.
    • Compact after milestone completion, not during active debugging.

    Review Focus for AI-Generated Code

    Prioritize:

    • invariants and edge cases
    • error boundaries
    • security and auth assumptions
    • hidden coupling and rollout risk

    Do not waste review cycles on style-only disagreements when automated format/lint already enforce style.

    Cost Discipline

    Track per task:

    • model
    • token estimate
    • retries
    • wall-clock time
    • success/failure

    Escalate model tier only when lower tier fails with a clear reasoning gap.
