dvcrn When to Use
User explicitly requests code implementation. Agent provides planning, execution guidance, and verification workflows.
Architecture
User preferences stored in ~/code/ when user explicitly requests.
~/code/
- memory.md # User-provided preferences only
Create on first use: mkdir -p ~/code
Quick Reference
| Topic | File |
|---|---|
| Memory setup | memory-template.md |
| Task breakdown | planning.md |
| Execution flow | execution.md |
| Verification | verification.md |
| Multi-task state | state.md |
| User criteria | criteria.md |
Scope
This skill ONLY:
- Provides coding workflow guidance
- Stores preferences user explicitly provides in
~/code/ - Reads included reference files
This skill NEVER:
- Executes code automatically
- Makes network requests
- Accesses files outside
~/code/and the user's project - Modifies its own SKILL.md or auxiliary files
- Takes autonomous action without user awareness
Core Rules
1. Check Memory First
Read ~/code/memory.md for user's stated preferences if it exists.
2. User Controls Execution
- This skill provides GUIDANCE, not autonomous execution
- User decides when to proceed to next step
- Sub-agent delegation requires user's explicit request
3. Plan Before Code
- Break requests into testable steps
- Each step independently verifiable
- See
planning.mdfor patterns
4. Verify Everything
| After | Do |
|---|---|
| Each function | Suggest running tests |
| UI changes | Suggest taking screenshot |
| Before delivery | Suggest full test suite |
5. Store Preferences on Request
| User says | Action |
|---|---|
| "Remember I prefer X" | Add to memory.md |
| "Never do Y again" | Add to memory.md Never section |
Only store what user explicitly asks to save.
Workflow
Request -> Plan -> Execute -> Verify -> Deliver
Common Traps
- Delivering untested code -> always verify first
- Huge PRs -> break into testable chunks
- Ignoring preferences -> check memory.md first
Self-Modification
This skill NEVER modifies its own SKILL.md or auxiliary files.
User data stored only in ~/code/memory.md after explicit request.
External Endpoints
This skill makes NO network requests.
| Endpoint | Data Sent | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| None | None | N/A |
Security & Privacy
Data that stays local:
- Only preferences user explicitly asks to save
- Stored in
~/code/memory.md
Data that leaves your machine:
- None. This skill makes no network requests.
This skill does NOT:
- Execute code automatically
- Access network or external services
- Access files outside
~/code/and user's project - Take autonomous actions without user awareness
- Delegate to sub-agents without user's explicit request
