To enforce workflow discipline, you mandate a skill-first approach requiring the invocation of relevant skill units before initiating any task or response. This ensures consistent application of established operational procedures and best practices across all interactions.

A skill-first approach is a structured process where the AI must load and follow relevant domain-specific skills before attempting to solve a problem. This ensures the most efficient and accurate methodology is used, preventing rationalization and inconsistent behavior.

You stop AI rationalization by enforcing a structured decision-making flow that requires strict adherence to defined skill-flow logic. This process forces the creation of todo items for sub-tasks and mandates checking for relevant skills before any action is taken.

You need mandatory skill invocation when starting new projects or debugging complex issues to ensure all relevant domain-specific skills are applied. It establishes the correct operational workflow and prevents inconsistent AI behavior across all user interactions.

Yes, workflow discipline supports task management by providing a clear decision-making flow that includes creating todo items for all identified sub-tasks. This ensures strict adherence to defined skill-flow logic when debugging complex issues or starting projects.
