best-practice-core

Best-practice extraction organizes core practices into a minimal tree for quick reference during task planning. This Skill generates a keyword-focused tree with max depth 3 and max 5 children per node, output as Markdown for your Docs/{name}_Task.md subtasks, enabling concise guidance before implementation begins.

Best-practice trees follow strict constraints: maximum 3 levels deep, no more than 5 children per node, leaf nodes limited to 12 words using noun phrases only, and Markdown bullet format. These rules ensure trees remain scannable and actionable during development work.

Use best-practice trees before implementation begins as part of task planning. They distill essential guidance into minimal reference material, reducing planning overhead and providing developers with immediate, structured access to key practices without lengthy documentation.

Best-practice trees work across any topic where you need condensed reference guidance. Provide a topic—authentication, API design, testing—and the Skill generates a focused tree capturing core practices in keyword form, suitable for embedding in task documentation.

Best-practice trees are ultra-compact keyword references designed for quick lookup during planning and development; full documentation provides exhaustive explanation. Trees prioritize depth-3 structure and 12-word leaves for scanning speed, while docs explain context and rationale.
