description: "Discovers and injects project-specific coding guidelines from .trellis/spec/ before implementation begins. Reads spec indexes, pre-development checklists, and shared thinking guides for the target package. Use when starting a new coding task, before writing any code, switching to a different package, or needing to refresh project conventions and standards."

Read the relevant development guidelines before starting your task.
|
|
|
|
Execute these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. **Read current task artifacts**:
|
|
- `prd.md` for requirements and acceptance criteria
|
|
- `design.md` if present for technical design
|
|
- `implement.md` if present for execution order and validation plan
|
|
|
|
2. **Discover packages and their spec layers**:
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py --mode packages
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Identify which specs apply** to your task based on:
|
|
- Which package you're modifying (e.g., `cli/`, `docs-site/`)
|
|
- What type of work (backend, frontend, unit-test, docs, etc.)
|
|
- Any spec/research paths referenced by the task artifacts
|
|
|
|
4. **Read the spec index** for each relevant module:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat .trellis/spec/<package>/<layer>/index.md
|
|
```
|
|
Follow the **"Pre-Development Checklist"** section in the index.
|
|
|
|
5. **Read the specific guideline files** listed in the Pre-Development Checklist that are relevant to your task. The index is NOT the goal — it points you to the actual guideline files (e.g., `error-handling.md`, `conventions.md`, `mock-strategies.md`). Read those files to understand the coding standards and patterns.
|
|
|
|
6. **Always read shared guides**:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat .trellis/spec/guides/index.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
7. Understand the coding standards and patterns you need to follow, then proceed with your development plan.
|
|
|
|
This step is **mandatory** before writing any code.
