dotfile-hone

What problem does it solve?

Dotfile-hone finds and fixes subtle pipeline inefficiencies and information loss that structural validation alone cannot detect, especially when prompts may have dropped domain rules from the original spec.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Flow inefficiency detection: Identifies unnecessary serialization, missing selective joins, and false sequential dependencies in DOT graphs.
• Reverse spec gap testing: Reconstructs a complete spec from the DOT file alone and compares it to the original to expose missing or degraded details.
• Invariant embedding and verification: Embeds concrete core invariants (paths, fields, permissions, enums, immutability rules) into component prompts and re-verifies improvements.

Quick Start

Use the dotfile-hone skill after dotfile-audit when you have a pipeline DOT that already passes structural validation but you want to deeply verify fidelity to the original spec.
