Rules

1. Destructive = dry-run default ON. Must use explicit --no-dry-run to execute.
2. Log to ~/.claude/logs/[scriptname].jsonl for an audit trail when relevant (file-modifying, network-fetching, API calls).
3. chmod +x after Write — exec bit must be set.
4. --help is mandatory — show it even when no args.
5. Never hardcode credentials — read from ~/.claude/.env.
6. Output in markdown if the script produces a text report (not tabular).

Workflow

1. The user describes: "I need a script that [X]"
2. Choose stack (bash/TS/Python) per the table above
3. Create the anatomy template
4. Implement core logic
5. chmod +x ~/.claude/scripts/[scriptname]
6. Test: ./scripts/[scriptname] --help
7. Test: ./scripts/[scriptname] --dry-run [args]
8. Report to user: what the script does + examples
