SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents ad-hoc or uncoordinated AI responses by ensuring the agent consults a curated skill index and loads the most relevant skills before acting, so engineering workflows remain disciplined and consistent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-response routing: Reads skills/index.json and selects the top 1–3 matching skills to guide the agent's next actions.
  • Gate skills enforcement: Silently applies verification, self-review, systematic debugging, and scope-control rules when their triggers fire.
  • Decision flow orchestration: Provides a decision chart for handling greetings, bugs, new features, code reviews, and completion verification; useful for enforcing TDD, planning, and review workflows in development sessions.

Quick Start

Invoke the dojo-charter skill and consult skills/index.json to load the top one to three matching skills before responding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce skill selection for AI agents before they respond?

To enforce skill selection for AI agents, you need a pre-response routing process that consults a curated skills index and loads the top matching skills before the agent acts. This prevents ad-hoc AI responses by ensuring disciplined, consistent engineering workflows.

What is pre-response skill routing and how does it work for code review?

Pre-response skill routing reads a skills index file to select the top one to three matching skills for specific tasks like code review or debugging. It orchestrates the decision flow by loading relevant skills before the AI agent generates its response.

How do I apply systematic debugging and verification rules automatically in an AI workflow?

You apply systematic debugging and verification rules automatically by using gate skills enforcement. This mechanism silently applies verification, self-review, debugging, and scope-control rules when their specific triggers fire during a development session.

Do I need a skills index file to use pre-response routing for AI agents?

Yes, you need a skills index file, such as skills/index.json, and a Skill tool for loading skills. These components are required to select the appropriate matching skills and enforce the pre-response routing process for AI agents.

Can I enforce test-driven development and planning workflows using skill-first AI behavior?

Yes, you can enforce test-driven development and planning workflows by applying skill-first AI behavior. It provides a decision chart for handling new features, bugs, and completion verification to maintain disciplined development sessions.
