context-first

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents AI agents from implementing solutions prematurely or with corrupted context, ensuring that necessary information is gathered and validated before any coding begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Mandatory Context Loading: Enforces a strict protocol to load relevant artifacts before implementation.
• 3-Step Validation: Guides the agent through dry reading, context gathering, and plan validation.
• Artifact Freshness & Tiering: Manages document lifecycles and ensures lower-tier documents align with higher-tier governing documents.
• Use Case: When asked to refactor a component, the agent must first load the architecture diagrams and relevant stories, validate its understanding, and then proceed with the refactoring plan.

Quick Start

Ensure all necessary context is loaded and validated before proceeding with any implementation task.
