one month ago

Added

  • Pre-flight Check System - New meta/pre-flight.md instruction for centralized agent detection and initialization
  • Proactive Agent Usage - Updated agent descriptions to encourage proactive use when appropriate
  • Structured Instruction Organization - New folder structure with core/ and meta/ subdirectories

Changed

  • Instruction File Structure - Reorganized all instruction files into subdirectories:
    • Core instructions moved to instructions/core/ (plan-product, create-spec, execute-tasks, execute-task, analyze-product)
    • Meta instructions in instructions/meta/ (pre-flight, more to come)
  • Simplified XML Metadata - Removed verbose <ai_meta> and <step_metadata> blocks for cleaner, more readable instructions
  • Subagent Integration - Replaced manual agent detection with centralized pre-flight check across all instruction files to enforce delegation and preserve main agent's context.
  • Step Definitions - Added subagent attribute to steps for clearer delegation of work to help enforce delegation and preserve main agent's context.
  • Setup Script - Updated to create subdirectories and download files to new locations

Improved

  • Code Clarity - Removed redundant XML instructions in favor of descriptive step purposes
  • Agent Efficiency - Centralized agent detection reduces repeated checks throughout workflows
  • Maintainability - Cleaner instruction format with less XML boilerplate
  • User Experience - Clearer indication of when specialized agents will be used proactively

Removed

  • CLAUDE.md - Removed deprecated Claude Code configuration file (functionality moved to pre-flight system, preventing over-reading instructions into context)
  • Redundant Instructions - Eliminated verbose ACTION/MODIFY/VERIFY instruction blocks
