Reliability & compatibility
Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Activation Contract
Load this skill when a planned PR may exceed 400 changed lines, SDD forecasts 400-line budget risk: High or Chained PRs recommended: Yes, or the user asks for chained/stacked PRs, review slices, or reviewer-load control.
Hard Rules
- Split PRs over 400 changed lines unless a maintainer explicitly accepts
size:exception. - Keep each PR reviewable in about ≤60 minutes.
- Use one deliverable work unit per PR; keep tests/docs with the unit they verify.
- State start, end, prior dependencies, follow-up work, and out-of-scope items in every chained PR.
- Every child PR must include a dependency diagram marking the current PR with
📍. - In Feature Branch Chain, create a draft/no-merge tracker PR; child PR #1 targets the tracker branch, later children target the immediate parent branch.
- Treat polluted diffs as base bugs: retarget or rebase until only the current work unit appears.
- Do not mix chain strategies after the user chooses one.
Decision Gates
| Condition | Action | |---|---| | PR ≤400 changed lines and focused | Keep single PR. | | PR >400, each slice can land independently | Use Stacked PRs to main. | | PR >400, feature must integrate before main | Use Feature Branch Chain with tracker. | | Generated/vendor/migration diff cannot split cleanly | Ask maintainer for size:exception. | | SDD provides delivery_strategy | Follow it before apply/PR creation. |
Execution Steps
- Estimate changed lines and identify independent work units.
- Ask for a chain strategy when none is cached and the budget is exceeded.
- Create branches/PRs using the chosen strategy only.
- Add Chain Context to each PR without replacing the repo PR template.
- Verify each PR independently: CI/tests/docs/manual checks, rollback scope, and clean diff.
- Keep tracker PR draft/no-merge until all child PRs are reviewed and integrated.
Output Contract
Return the chosen strategy, PR order, current PR boundary, dependency diagram, review budget (additions + deletions), verification plan, and any size:exception rationale.
