You can enforce coding guidelines by running pre-development checks that automatically discover project-specific spec layers and provide structured checklists. This prevents potential code issues by promoting consistent coding standards before you begin writing code.

Pre-development checks are automated processes that discover spec layers and project standards to ensure code quality. They provide shared thinking guides and structured checklists to review before coding, preventing issues from arising later in the development lifecycle.

Yes, you need python3 and a .trellis directory to run pre-development coding checks. The Skill executes script commands, specifically requiring python3 to run the get_context.py script to discover packages and spec layers in your project.

To discover spec layers for a coding task, run the command `python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py --mode packages`. This automatically discovers project-specific coding guidelines and outputs the relevant spec index and guideline files for your module.

Yes, this approach standardizes project coding standards across a team by offering shared thinking guides and best practices. It automates the discovery of project-specific guidelines and provides a structured pre-development checklist to ensure everyone adheres to the same standards.

Your coding guidelines may not apply consistently if you lack an automated discovery process for spec layers. By running a pre-development check script, you can automatically extract the specific guideline files for each module, ensuring adherence to project standards before coding begins.
