inherit-legacy-style
Legacy-project style inheritance skill. Use when the user types /inherit-legacy-style, or when onboarding an AI coding agent onto a hand-written legacy project and you need to prevent "style drift" (the model imposing its pretrained mainstream idioms onto the project). Language — and framework-agnostic — it aligns meta-architecture only, not syntax. Once run, it becomes a behavioral constraint on all subsequent…

An agent skill that scans a legacy codebase for implicit conventions across four meta-architecture dimensions and writes them to a `.ai-style-rules.md` file at the project root. Once generated, the rules act as a behavioral constraint on subsequent coding tasks, with incremental re-scans via Git diffs and per-turn compliance declarations.
Use it when onboarding an AI agent onto a hand-written legacy project and you need to stop the model from imposing its pretrained mainstream idioms on the codebase.
Use it to
- Run a first-time full style scan on a legacy repo
- Incrementally update style rules after new commits
- Enforce style compliance on every coding task
- Wire the rules file into CLAUDE.md
- Resolve conflicts between detected conventions with user input
