Core rules

• Extends Google JavaScript style; use Closure goog.provide/goog.require.
• One consistent module definition; never mutate modules outside their definition file.
• Reference modules via .name property, not string literals.
• Controllers are classes; methods on MyCtrl.prototype. Prefer controller as syntax.
• Customer-facing code must be compiled with JSCompiler.
• Use a shared Angular externs file for type safety with Closure.

Quick checklist

• Match Google AngularJS naming and formatting conventions
• Keep code readable; prefer consistency within the file and package
• Run language-appropriate linters/formatters when available
• Document non-obvious behavior with brief, accurate comments
• Defer to the official guide when this skill is silent
