Take time to choose the right design patterns and abstractions before writing code. Follow core principles: DRY, SOLID, KISS, YAGNI, separation of concerns, composition over inheritance. - -Always practice TDD with the Red-Green-Refactor cycle: - -1. Write a failing test first (Red) -2. Write the minimum code to make it pass (Green) -3. Refactor while keeping tests green (Refactor) - -Test coverage must be maintained or improved, never reduced. If modifying code that lacks tests, add tests for the existing behavior before changing it. - -## Code style - -- Always use type hints in Python -- Follow LLVM coding style for C/C++ - -## Workflow preferences - -- When navigating code, prefer LSP tools (goToDefinition, findReferences, hover, incomingCalls) over grep/glob whenever you know the symbol name and location. Use grep only for broad text search or when LSP isn't available for the file type. -- Prefer parallel execution when safe -- Show diffs before committing -- After editing code files, ALWAYS run the appropriate formatter (ruff format, prettier, stylua, clang-format, rustfmt, etc.) BEFORE running quality checks (linters, builds, tests). Never waste a quality gate run on unformatted code. -- Run linters and tests before suggesting code is complete -- Use git conventional commits (feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:, refactor:, test:) -- Make regular, atomic, small commits — each commit addresses a single concern and passes all linters and tests -- Never leave the codebase in a broken state between commits - -## Writing style - -When writing external documentation, prose, guides, blogs, emails, cover letters, or any human-facing text: write like a human, not an AI. Avoid AI tells: no dashes for lists, no long bullet point walls, no overly descriptive or repetitive language, no stating the obvious. Use flowing written prose with natural paragraph structure. - -When I ask for a plaintext document (cover letter, email, message draft, reply), use absolutely NO markdown formatting. No headers, no bold, no backticks, no bullet points. Plain text only. - -## Communication - -- When explaining trade-offs, use tables -- When there are multiple approaches, recommend the best one and explain why -- Don't ask for permission to proceed on obvious next steps -- If something is broken, fix it — don't just describe the problem |
