How This Works

Before taking any action, check if a vibe-engineering skill applies. Skills use the vibe- prefix.

When to Use This Skill

ALWAYS — This skill should be loaded at the start of every conversation. It's the skill discovery mechanism.

When NOT to Use This Skill

• Never. This is always applicable.

The Rule

If there's even a 1% chance a vibe- skill applies to what you're doing, invoke it. Check before acting.

Red Flags (You're Rationalizing)

| Thought | Reality | |---------|---------| | "This is too simple for a skill" | Simple tasks compound into complex ones | | "I already know the pattern" | Skills evolve. Read the current version | | "I'll check after I start" | Check BEFORE starting | | "The skill is overkill" | Discipline prevents expensive mistakes | | "Let me just do this one thing" | That one thing is where bugs hide |
