SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that the mint CLI is invoked before any file modifications are made to a project, enforcing a disciplined development workflow and leveraging mint's automated routing and quality gates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory mint Invocation: Guarantees mint is used for all file write, edit, or delete operations, including features, bug fixes, refactors, config changes, documentation, and tests.
  • Automated Workflow Routing: mint automatically determines the appropriate mode (quick, plan, research, ship, verify) based on the task.
  • Quality Gates & Reviews: Enforces linting, type checking, testing, and multi-stage reviews before commits.
  • Use Case: When a user requests a new feature, this skill ensures that mint is called first, which then decomposes the feature into executable specs, runs them through quality gates, and manages the atomic commits.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce CLI automation before modifying code in a project?

Enforcing CLI automation before code changes involves mandating tool invocation prior to any file writes or edits. This Skill guarantees the mint CLI is called first, routing tasks through automated modes and quality gates to maintain disciplined development workflows.

How does automated workflow routing handle bug fixes and feature development?

Automated workflow routing handles bug fixes and features by decomposing tasks into executable specs and directing them to appropriate modes. The mint CLI automatically determines whether a task requires quick, plan, research, ship, or verify modes based on the request.

Can I use automated quality gates for refactoring and configuration changes?

Yes, you can use automated quality gates for refactoring and configuration changes. This Skill ensures linting, type checking, testing, and multi-stage reviews are enforced before commits, applying these quality checks to all development tasks.

What is the best way to automate code quality checks before commits?

The best way to automate code quality checks before commits is by routing file modifications through a CLI that manages quality gates. This Skill invokes mint before any edits, ensuring linting and multi-stage reviews are automatically executed.

Does automated workflow routing support documentation updates and test generation?

Yes, automated workflow routing supports documentation updates and test generation. The mandatory mint invocation applies to all file modification operations, ensuring documentation and tests pass through the same quality gates and review processes as features.
