SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It solves the problem of consistently authoring or modifying hatch3r canonical artifacts without breaking schema conventions, duplicating existing content, or introducing non-compliant quality practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact Type Guidance: Correctly determines whether the target is an agent, skill, rule, command, or hook and routes the workflow accordingly.
  • Quality-Charter and Pattern Conformance: Uses the repository’s quality charter and existing artifacts of the same type to match frontmatter schema, tone, and structure.
  • Duplication and Validation Guardrails: Performs explicit duplication checks and aligns the authored artifact to defined governance pillars and prompt-engineering criteria.
  • Reputable-Source Reconnaissance: Enforces decision-based web research requirements for new agents/skills/rules to ensure verification rigor and reference traceability.
  • Quick Anti-Slop Scanning: Runs an anti-slop scan against banned phrases as part of the final validation.

Quick Start

Use the h4tcher-content-author skill to update a canonical hatch3r skill artifact named hatch3r-your-skill by providing the artifact name and the desired change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate YAML frontmatter for canonical content artifacts?

YAML frontmatter generation for canonical content artifacts requires structuring id, type, description, tags, and quality_charter fields to enforce schema conformance. This skill automates that validation by routing artifact typing for agents, skills, rules, commands, and hooks according to repository governance patterns.

What is a governance audit for content authoring?

A governance audit for content authoring is the validation of artifact schema, tone, and structure against a repository quality charter. It enforces pillar alignment, duplication boundaries, and prompt-engineering checklist criteria to ensure canonical content remains compliant and structurally consistent.

Best way to prevent content duplication when authoring canonical artifacts?

Preventing content duplication when authoring canonical artifacts is best handled through explicit duplication checking against existing artifacts of the same type. This skill performs those checks while applying governance boundaries to maintain canonical content integrity across the repository.

Can I use prompt validation for modifying existing skills and agents?

Yes, prompt validation can be used for modifying existing skills and agents. The workflow applies D05 prompt-engineering checklist checks and anti-slop scanning against banned phrases to ensure modifications meet quality charter standards and maintain schema conformance.

Do I need web references for canonical content artifacts?

Web references are required for new agents, skills, and rules through reputable-source reconnaissance. This ensures verification rigor and reference traceability during canonical content authoring, providing decision-based web research outputs that support the artifact's governance validation.

Why does my content artifact fail the anti-slop scan?

Content artifacts fail anti-slop scans when banned phrases are detected during the final validation phase. The scan checks authored content against a banned phrase list as part of quality charter conformance, ensuring canonical artifacts meet repository tone and structure standards.
