General

What this skill does


## When to Use

Use this skill when:
- Starting a new feature or refactor
- Reviewing implementation direction
- Writing or refining project conventions

---

## Cultural Rules

1. Product coherence beats local cleverness.
2. Every visible feature should feel connected to the full Engram experience.
3. Avoid generic enterprise UI/architecture drift.
4. Prefer explicit decisions and documented rules over tribal knowledge.
5. Quality means behavior, naming, tests, docs, and UX all line up.

---

## Collaboration Rules

- Push back on fake UX and fake controls.
- If a rule is organizational, enforce it on the server.
- If a pattern repeats, capture it as a skill or project convention.
- Treat design, architecture, and business rules as one system.
