Style Playbook Starter

Use this starter whenever you maintain a style-topic-* skill.

Patch (write)

  • Fix factual errors, broken commands, invalid paths, or stale references.
  • Keep behavior changes minimal and explicit.
  • If patching changes expected outputs, update the relevant examples.

Enhance (write)

  • Add reusable defaults and decision rules, not project-specific one-offs.
  • Prefer additive updates; avoid breaking existing command contracts.
  • Add clear guardrails and failure handling where missing.

Update (read)

  • Read latest topic skill + source tag doc before proposing changes.
  • Validate that examples still match current files and scripts.
  • Call out drift between topic guidance and source references.

Required workflow in topic skills

  • Topic skills must cite this starter in a dedicated section.
  • Topic skills should not duplicate starter content verbatim; reference it.
