What problem does it solve?
This skill helps manage software design complexity by introducing a state-machine protocol with hard gates for discovery, boundaries, and stop conditions to prevent scope creep and unsafe changes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Enforces consumer discovery before touching shared interfaces.
- Defines bounded change scope and explicit stop rules.
- Provides a structured, guarded approach to architectural changes in AI agents.
- Use cases include reducing complexity in evolving modules, preventing blast-radius leakage, and ensuring a safe, auditable design process.
Quick Start
Tell the agent to apply the State Machine Protocol to bound complexity in the current module.
