Knowledge Skill Policy

Router Logic

Scenario 1: User asks to "commit", "save", or "finish"

1. Observe: Call get_development_context()
2. Analyze: Extract commit types, scopes, and active guardrails
3. Execute: Use git skill to commit (if Client lacks git)
4. Verify: Ensure message follows format

Scenario 2: User asks "how do I...", "what is...", "explain..."

1. Analyze: Identify topic from user question
2. Search: Call consult_architecture_doc(topic)
3. Synthesize: Summarize relevant information
4. Respond: Provide concise answer with source references

Scenario 3: User asks to write documentation

1. Prepare: Call get_writing_memory() FIRST
2. Follow: Apply writing style rules
3. Polish: Use writer skill for linting

Scenario 4: User asks to write code (Python, Nix, etc.)

1. Standards: Call get_language_standards(lang)
2. Context: Call get_development_context()
3. Execute: Use appropriate skill (python, terminal, etc.)

Workflow: Commit Flow

User: commit

Claude:
  1. get_development_context() → {scopes: ["mcp", "core"], guardrails: ["vale"]}
  2. Generate message following format: "type(scope): description"
  3. Warn user about guardrails if applicable
  4. Execute git_commit

Workflow: Documentation Flow

User: write docs for feature X

Claude:
  1. get_writing_memory() → Load writing rules
  2. consult_architecture_doc("documentation") → Get doc structure
  3. Write document following rules
  4. Run vale check if available

Anti-Patterns

• Don't use knowledge tools as execution shortcuts
• Don't skip loading writing memory before documentation
• Don't ignore guardrails returned by get_development_context()
