highcharts Highcharts Tooling Guardrails
Use this skill for changes in tools/, build scripts, test runners, or repository automation.
Rules
- Reuse existing tooling first:
- Prefer npm scripts, gulp tasks, eslint/playwright setup, and existing helpers under
tools/. - Do not add a new toolchain when equivalent behavior already exists.
- Keep stack consistency:
- Prefer Node-based scripts for cross-platform support unless shell behavior is explicitly required.
- Avoid adding repo-wide dependencies for one-off automation.
- Keep automation safe and predictable:
- Default scripts to non-destructive behavior.
- Require explicit confirmation flags for destructive replacements.
- Support non-interactive CI mode.
- Verify tooling changes:
- Add or update usage docs/help output (
--help) for new scripts. - Include a minimal validation checklist in task/PR output with exact commands used.
