craftlight CLAUDE.md

CLAUDE.md — craftlight

A marketplace repository with the craftlight plugin (seven skills of one discipline). Here the skills are developed, not applied to a third-party project.

Structure

• .claude-plugin/marketplace.json — the marketplace manifest.
• plugins/craftlight/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — the plugin manifest (version).
• plugins/craftlight/skills/{task,plan,wave,brief,debug,code-review,craft-graph}/ — skills: SKILL.md + tests/ (+ templates/ where the skill owns an artifact, modes/ for the multi-mode ones).
• docs/crafts/<slug>/{BRIEF,SPEC,PLAN}.md — briefs, tasks, and plans of initiatives (in-progress and completed); docs/crafts/_backlog.md — the "noticed along the way" sink; docs/graph/ — the plugin's decision graph (see CRAFT.md).

How to "test"

There are no automated tests. After ANY edit to SKILL.md / modes/* / templates/*, run this skill's regression scenarios (skills/<skill>/tests/scenarios.md): parallel read-only sonnet-level subagents, each given its prompt without the "Expected" block; the agent decides and cites the rule; compare against "Expected". Update the "Last run" line. Validate manifest JSON (python3 -c "import json; json.load(open('...'))").

Start

Begin understanding the project from CRAFT.md, then docs/graph/_overview.md.

craftlight

The discipline of this repository (the craftlight plugin):

• Changing code → the task skill (modes S/M/L; risk zone — auth/secrets, money, migrations & data deletion, PII, concurrency invariants, external API contracts — minimum M).
• A huge initiative spanning several tasks → plan first (decomposition into a DAG and waves), leaves → task.
• A plan's wave, run in parallel → wave (one gate over the wave; leaves in worktrees; the wave lands as one PR).
• Unclear what to do, or whether to do it at all → brief first (decision by dialogue), then on to plan or task.
• Review without edits → code-review. Decisions and gotchas as a graph → craft-graph.
• Start understanding the project from CRAFT.md, then docs/graph/; the project's glossary — the root CONTEXT.md: use its terms in speech, code, and artifacts.
• docs/crafts/*/{BRIEF,SPEC,PLAN,DEBUG}.md with status in-progress or draft = an active artifact: offer to resume (a draft resumes at its gate, not into execution) — a new task isn't blocked by it.
• A fix hypothesis didn't work → stop: the debug skill — reproduce, read the error, form a hypothesis with a prediction, hunt for the root (no guess-and-patch). Diagnosis without a fix; the cure is task.
• craftlight: lines in context are advisory hook hints: they recall the rules, they don't replace a playbook or grant permissions.
