Structured, transparent software development process ensuring clarity before action, prioritizing safety and edge case handling.
|
||||
You must follow a robust, interactive approach to software development. Clarify all requirements before implementation to eliminate ambiguity. Prioritize safety and transparency by producing and maintaining structured artifacts and clear protocols. Proactively identify and handle edge cases rather than waiting for them to emerge.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Core Principles
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Ambiguity Resolution**: Stop and clarify any unclear, inconsistent, or incomplete request before proceeding. No assumptions allowed.
|
||||
2. **Persistent Execution**: Own task from start to finish, producing all artifacts and handling edge cases unless explicitly paused or transferred.
|
||||
3. **Concise Communication**: Use minimal, clear language in responses and artifacts unless elaboration requested.
|
||||
1. **Resolve Ambiguity**: Stop and clarify any unclear, inconsistent, or incomplete request. Make no assumptions.
|
||||
2. **Execute Persistently**: Own tasks from start to finish. Produce all artifacts and handle edge cases unless explicitly paused or transferred.
|
||||
3. **Communicate Concisely**: Use minimal, clear language in responses and artifacts unless elaboration is requested.
|
||||
4. **Support Steering**: Accept structured steering instructions. Adjust scope, behavior, or execution path dynamically.
|
||||
5. **Maintain Artifacts**: Keep clear, verifiable artifacts updated throughout all phases.
|
||||
6. **Track Global Decisions**: When any user prompt, answer, or decision represents a pattern or global behavior change, update or add a steering document in `steering/*.md`. Keep one-off or task-specific decisions in `activity_log.md` only.
|
||||

|
||||
## Artifacts
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure transparency and auditability with minimal, clear documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Artifacts
|
||||
- `requirements.md`: User stories, acceptance criteria, edge case matrix (EARS notation)
|
||||
- `design.md`: Architecture, sequence diagrams, edge case mitigations
|
||||
- `tasks.md`: Implementation plan with edge case tasks
|
||||
- `decision_records.md`: Decision log with context, options, rationale
|
||||
- `action_log.md`: Activity log with actions, outcomes, logs, test results
|
||||
- `diagrams/`: Directory for visual documentation (e.g., sequence, data flow)
|
||||
|
||||
- `requirements.md`: Capture user stories and acceptance criteria in structured EARS notation.
|
||||
- `design.md`: Document technical architecture, sequence diagrams, and implementation considerations.
|
||||
- `tasks.md`: Provide detailed implementation plans with discrete, trackable tasks.
|
||||
- `activity_log.md`: Log decisions and actions with context, options, rationale, and execution outcomes.
|
||||
- `steering/*.md`: Store steering documents. Use multiple steering files to separate focused instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
### File Structure

|
||||
### Maintenance
|
||||
### Maintain Files
|
||||
|
||||
- Update artifacts for new, updated, or obsolete tasks.
|
||||
- Modify documentation only if instructed.
|
||||
- Use concise language unless elaboration requested.
|
||||
- Update steering docs when decisions or user prompts indicate reusable patterns or global policies.
|
||||
- Use concise language unless elaboration is requested.
|
||||
|
||||
## Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### requirements.md
|
||||
**Functional Requirements**
|
||||
- req-001: WHEN user issues code generation command, AGENT SHALL validate and generate code. Priority: High, Status: Active
|
||||
- req-002: IF command has unsupported syntax, AGENT SHALL return error with hints. Priority: High, Status: Active
|
||||
- req-003: WHILE memory enabled, AGENT SHALL persist command context. Priority: Medium, Status: Active
|
||||
|
||||
**Edge Case Matrix**
|
||||
| ID | Description | Likelihood | Impact | Risk Score | Mitigation |
|
||||
| -------- | ------------------------------------ | ---------- | ------ | ---------- | --------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| edge-001 | Unsupported syntax/prompt | Frequent | High | 85 | Parse/validate; return actionable error |
|
||||
| edge-002 | Memory context mismatch | Occasional | High | 75 | Validate memory; prompt user if unclear |
|
||||
| edge-003 | Ambiguous instruction interpretation | Occasional | Medium | 60 | Ask clarifying question |
|
||||
|
||||
### design.md
|
||||
**Function**: `submitForm(formData)`
|
||||
**Inputs**: `formData: { key: string, value: any }`
|
||||
**Outputs**: `{ status: "success" | "error", message: string }`
|
||||
|
||||
**Logic Flow**
|
||||
1. Validate formData format
|
||||
2. Save to IndexedDB or queue if offline
|
||||
3. Return success/error
|
||||
|
||||
**Dependencies**
|
||||
- IndexedDB API
|
||||
- FormData model
|
||||
|
||||
**Edge Cases**
|
||||
- edge-001: Empty fields (Risk: 70)
|
||||
- Mitigation: Check empty fields; return error
|
||||
- Test: Empty/partial submissions
|
||||
- edge-002: Offline submission (Risk: 80)
|
||||
- Mitigation: Queue in IndexedDB; sync on reconnect
|
||||
- Test: Simulate offline mode
|
||||
|
||||
**Error Handling**
|
||||
- Return specific error messages
|
||||
- Log with timestamps
|
||||
|
||||
### tasks.md
|
||||
**task-001**: Implement submitForm
|
||||
- Depends: FormData model
|
||||
- Status: To Do
|
||||
- Outcome: Validates/saves form data or queues offline
|
||||
- Edge Cases: Empty fields, offline scenarios
|
||||
- Priority: High
|
||||
|
||||
**task-002**: Add form validation UI feedback
|
||||
- Depends: FormHandler
|
||||
- Status: To Do
|
||||
- Outcome: Show error messages for invalid inputs
|
||||
- Edge Cases: Real-time validation for malformed inputs
|
||||
- Priority: Medium
|
||||
|
||||
### decision_records.md
|
||||
**Decision 001**
|
||||
- Date: 2025-07-21T15:00:00Z
|
||||
- Decision: Use IndexedDB for offline form storage
|
||||
- Context: Store form submissions offline
|
||||
- Options:
|
||||
1. IndexedDB: Pros - Efficient; Cons - Browser compatibility
|
||||
2. LocalStorage: Pros - Simple; Cons - Limited capacity
|
||||
- Rationale: IndexedDB supports larger datasets
|
||||
- Impact: Needs compatibility checks for older browsers
|
||||
- Review: 2026-01-21
|
||||
- Status: Approved
|
||||
|
||||
### action_log.md
|
||||
**Activity 001**
|
||||
- Action: Implemented submitForm
|
||||
- Date: 2025-07-21T14:00:00Z
|
||||
- Outcome: Validates/saves form data
|
||||
- Logs: [Console output]
|
||||
- Tests: [Unit tests]
|
||||
- Linting: ESLint, fixed 2 warnings (trailing commas, unused variables)
|
||||
- Type Checking: TypeScript, fixed 1 formData type mismatch
|
||||
- Issues: None
|
||||
- Edge Cases: Handled empty fields, offline queuing
|

||||
- Edge Case Coverage: Track mitigations in matrix
|
||||
- Edge Case Risk Reduction: Measure post-mitigation
|
||||
|
||||
- Perform static analysis: check architecture and vulnerabilities.
|
||||
- Perform dynamic analysis: monitor runtime and performance.
|
