Can this skill find functional bugs?

No, this skill is specifically designed for architectural philosophy compliance. It focuses on simplicity and structure rather than functional logic or syntax errors.

What does 'Regeneration Assessment' mean?

It evaluates whether a module's specification and public contract are clear enough that an AI could completely rebuild the component from scratch without breaking the rest of the system.

What is the Brick Philosophy?

The Brick Philosophy treats modules as self-contained units with one clear responsibility, isolated folders, and clear public contracts (studs) that allow for easy replacement or regeneration.

How does this skill identify over-engineering?

It scans for 'future-proofing' code, unnecessary abstraction layers, and complex configurations intended for hypothetical scenarios rather than current requirements.

Productivity & Workflow

Enforces ruthless simplicity and modular brick architecture through systematic AI-driven architectural reviews.

The Philosophy Compliance Workflow is a specialized skill designed to act as an architectural conscience for your codebase. It ensures all implementations align with the 'amplihack' principles of ruthless simplicity, brick-based modularity, and Zen-like minimalism. By scanning for complexity creep, over-engineering, and tight coupling, this skill provides structured scoring and actionable reports that help developers maintain clean, self-contained, and AI-regeneratable modules. It is ideal for pre-implementation design validation and post-implementation code reviews where architectural integrity is paramount.
