What problem does it solve? Contributors to the dlthub-start repository can accidentally hand-edit auto-generated AI workbench files, causing make check-ai failures and lost changes on the next regeneration. This Skill ensures those rules are read before any file in the codebase is modified. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Mandatory pre-edit rules: Instructs the agent to always read project-wide rules before modifying any file in the repo. - Generated-file protection: Flags the vendored AI workbench files under src/create_dlthub_workspace/scaffolds/minimal_workspace/_agents/** (Claude, Cursor, Codex) as auto-generated and off-limits to direct edits. - Correct change workflow: Directs contributors to edit the upstream dlt-hub/dlthub-ai-workbench source and regenerate via make update-ai or make generate-ai against the pinned WORKBENCH_REF. - Use Case: Before refactoring a scaffold template, the agent checks this Skill, avoids editing the vendored files directly, and instead regenerates them from the pinned workbench ref. ## Quick Start Read the repo-rules skill before modifying any file in the dlthub-start repository to confirm whether the target file is auto-generated.
