This is a meta-skill, loaded as a SKILL.md, that governs how an AI coding agent discovers and invokes other agent skills. It describes skill discovery by development phase, a lifecycle sequence, and six core operating behaviors (surfacing assumptions, pushing back, enforcing simplicity, verifying with evidence).
Reach for it at session start or when deciding which skill or workflow applies to the task at hand.
Use it to
- Initialize a session with skill discovery rules
- Match an incoming task to the right development-phase skill
- Enforce verification before declaring work complete
- Keep implementation scope and complexity in check
