coding-conventions

Coding conventions establish standardized formatting, naming, and documentation rules across projects. This Skill defines those conventions for Python and PowerShell, applies them through code reviews and CI pipelines, and provides the reindent.py tool to automate indentation enforcement across your codebase.

Standards should cover indentation, line length, naming conventions, and documentation practices. This Skill references PYTHON-RULES.md and language-specific rule documents that detail formatting requirements, documentation frontmatter structure, and style guidelines for team alignment.

Yes. Standardized SKILL.md frontmatter and centralized rule documents accelerate onboarding by giving new team members a single reference for formatting expectations, naming patterns, and documentation requirements instead of learning conventions through code review feedback.

Reference the defined coding conventions in your CI pipeline to validate Python and PowerShell files against formatting and naming standards. The reindent.py tool standardizes indentation automatically, and rule documents provide the criteria for automated style validation.

Linting checks for syntax errors and code quality issues; coding conventions enforce organization-specific formatting, naming, and documentation standards. This Skill defines those conventions as a reference for code reviews and automated checks beyond what standard linters cover.
