engineering-kernel

What problem does it solve?

This skill eliminates the need to re-explain engineering workflows from chat memory for every new agent or repository. It provides a universal, reusable kernel that establishes PRD-first execution, GitHub issue decomposition, verification discipline, and multi-agent coordination rules that work across GPT/Codex and Claude-style agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Project Bootstrap: Materialize a complete engineering operating system into any repository, including AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, issue templates, PR templates, and label sync scripts.
• Workflow Canon Enforcement: Enforce PRD-first execution, research policy, bug intake, kernel sync review, and session issue sync closeout without relying on chat memory.
• Multi-Agent Orchestration: Define orchestrator/worker/reviewer limits, concurrency rules, recovery protocols, and Claude Code subagent adapter rules for production-bound work.
• Use Case: A team launching a new repository can run the bootstrap script and immediately have a complete, auditable engineering workflow that any future agent can follow without re-explanation.

Quick Start

Use the engineering-kernel skill to bootstrap or audit a repository's engineering workflow by applying the canonical project files and verifying kernel currency.
