APEX Behavioral Guards v24.7.0
Replaces Claude Code hooks for non-CLI environments (Antigravity, etc.)
Apply these checks mentally BEFORE every action.
Pre-Write Guard (Before EVERY file write/edit)
Security (BLOCKING)
- No Secrets: Block
sk-, pk_live_, AKIA*, ghp_, private keys. Exception: .env.example
- No eval(): Block
eval(), new Function() — always blocked, no exceptions
- No Destructive Commands: Never
rm -rf /, git push --force to main, curl|bash
- Protected Files: Never write
~/.ssh/*, .env/.env.local (unless explicit), node_modules/
APEX Laws (BLOCKING)
- No RTL Physical Properties: Block
ml-/mr-/pl-/pr-/text-left/text-right/left-/right- in TSX/JSX/CSS. Override: // rtl-ok
- No
any Types: Block : any, as unknown as, @ts-ignore (without explanation). Override: // type-ok
- No Console/Print: Block
console.* in .ts/.tsx, print()/debugPrint() in .dart. Override: // DEBUG
- No Large Fixed Dimensions: Block width >300px, height >500px. Override:
// responsive-ok
Pre-Completion Gate — L10+ ELITE (Before claiming "done")
Run mentally (or actually) before any completion claim:
- TypeScript:
pnpm run typecheck — 0 errors
- Lint:
pnpm run lint — 0 errors
- Tests:
pnpm run test — all pass
- Anti-patterns: Scan for
: any, console.log, TODO/FIXME
- RTL scan: Scan for
ml-/mr-/text-left/text-right (excluding // rtl-ok)
- Flutter:
flutter analyze must pass (if pubspec.yaml exists)
- Self-verify: Re-read request, list all requirements with pass/fail
- L10+ Elite Review (16 Dimensions): "What would a Distinguished Fellow (L10+) at NVIDIA/Google/Meta reject?" — (1) correctness proof (2) failure cascades (3) systemic risk (4) API/Hyrum's Law (5) resource efficiency (6) observability/SRE (7) security adversarial (8) concurrency (9) type-theoretic (10) information density (11) mechanical sympathy (12) tail latency p99.9 (13) backpressure (14) idempotency (15) blast radius (16) cognitive load
BLOCK if: TypeScript errors, any types without override, lint errors
WARN if: console.log, TODO/FIXME, RTL violations
Knowledge Capture
When discovering a reusable pattern, log it:
echo "LEARNED: [insight here]"
This saves to ~/.claude/knowledge/learned.jsonl for future recall.
Clarify Vague Requests
Before acting on short/ambiguous requests (<30 chars), ask for clarification:
- What specifically needs to be done?
- What files/components are involved?
- What is the expected behavior?
