generate-guards

You can prevent recurring mistakes by deriving project-specific guard patterns from your error history. This approach reads files like error-lookup.md and regret.md to propose safeguards that stop identical issues from reappearing during code reviews or debugging.

The best way to generate guard patterns from a post-mortem is to analyze error-lookup.md and regret.md files to identify gaps. The system outputs review-ready candidate guards with source references, requiring your confirmation before writing them back to guard-patterns.md.

Yes, you can apply guard patterns to codebases across different programming languages and workflows. The generation mechanism is language-agnostic, focusing on project-specific historical errors rather than language-specific syntax constraints.

Static analysis guard patterns work during code reviews by cross-referencing new code against documented error history and regret logs. They act as automated safeguards, identifying potential risks before code merges by checking for previously documented failure modes.

Yes, you need to manually confirm generated guard patterns before they are applied. The system proposes candidate guards with source references for verification, ensuring you review and approve which ones to add to guard-patterns.md.
