What problem does it solve?

This skill codifies VM0's essential coding standards and architectural principles to keep the codebase simple, reliable, and maintainable across projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces YAGNI: Avoid unnecessary features and abstractions; encourages simple, verifiable implementations.
  • Avoid Defensive Programming: Promote letting errors bubble up and rely on runtime/framework error handling.
  • Strict Type Checking: Enforce strong typing, no use of any, explicit types, and rigorous data structure definitions.
  • Zero Tolerance for Lint Violations: Mandate linted, clean code with strict adherence to rules.
  • Use Case: Teams onboarding VM0 can align on a shared set of practices to reduce bugs and speed up development.
