Code Style

Language: JavaScript

Naming Conventions

Import Style: Relative Imports

Export Style: Mixed Style

Preferred import style

// Use relative imports
import { Button } from '../components/Button'
import { useAuth } from './hooks/useAuth'

Testing

Test Framework

No specific test framework detected — use the repository's existing test patterns.

File Pattern: *.test.js

Test Types

• Unit tests: Test individual functions and components in isolation
• Integration tests: Test interactions between multiple components/services

Coverage

This project has coverage reporting configured. Aim for 80%+ coverage.

Error Handling

Error Handling Style: Try-Catch Blocks

Standard error handling pattern

try {
  const result = await riskyOperation()
  return result
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Operation failed:', error)
  throw new Error('User-friendly message')
}

Common Workflows

These workflows were detected from analyzing commit patterns.

Database Migration

Database schema changes with migration files

Add Language Rules

Adds a new programming language to the rules system, including coding style, hooks, patterns, security, and testing guidelines.

Frequency: ~2 times per month

Steps:

1. Create a new directory under rules/{language}/
2. Add coding-style.md, hooks.md, patterns.md, security.md, and testing.md files with language-specific content
3. Optionally reference or link to related skills

Files typically involved:

Create a new directory under rules/{language}/
Add coding-style.md, hooks.md, patterns.md, security.md, and testing.md files with language-specific content
Optionally reference or link to related skills

Add New Skill

Adds a new skill to the system, documenting its workflow, triggers, and usage, often with supporting scripts.

Frequency: ~4 times per month

Steps:

1. Create a new directory under skills/{skill-name}/
2. Add SKILL.md with documentation (When to Use, How It Works, Examples, etc.)
3. Optionally add scripts or supporting files under skills/{skill-name}/scripts/
4. Address review feedback and iterate on documentation

Files typically involved:

• skills/*/SKILL.md
• skills/*/scripts/*.sh
• skills/*/scripts/*.js

Example commit sequence:

Create a new directory under skills/{skill-name}/
Add SKILL.md with documentation (When to Use, How It Works, Examples, etc.)

Add New Agent

Adds a new agent to the system for code review, build resolution, or other automated tasks.

Frequency: ~2 times per month

Steps:

1. Create a new agent markdown file under agents/{agent-name}.md
2. Register the agent in AGENTS.md
3. Optionally update README.md and docs/COMMAND-AGENT-MAP.md

Add New Workflow Surface

Adds or updates a workflow entrypoint. Default to skills-first; only add a command shim when legacy slash compatibility is still required.

Frequency: ~1 times per month

Steps:

1. Create or update the canonical workflow under skills/{skill-name}/SKILL.md
2. Only if needed, add or update commands/{command-name}.md as a compatibility shim

Add or update hook scripts in hooks/ or scripts/hooks/
Register the hook in hooks/hooks.json or similar config
Optionally add or update tests in tests/hooks/

Address Review Feedback

Addresses code review feedback by updating documentation, scripts, or configuration for clarity, correctness, or convention alignment.

Frequency: ~4 times per month

Steps:

1. Edit SKILL.md, agent, or command files to address reviewer comments
2. Update examples, headings, or configuration as requested
3. Iterate until all review feedback is resolved

Example commit sequence:

Edit SKILL.md, agent, or command files to address reviewer comments

Best Practices

Based on analysis of the codebase, follow these practices:

Do

• Use conventional commit format (feat:, fix:, etc.)
• Follow *.test.js naming pattern
• Use camelCase for file names
• Prefer mixed exports

Don't

• Don't write vague commit messages
• Don't skip tests for new features
• Don't deviate from established patterns without discussion
