How does it help with security?

It provides a security mindset checklist including input validation, parameterized queries, and strict rules against committing secrets or sensitive data.

When should I use the Software Engineering skill?

Activate this skill when making high-level design decisions, evaluating trade-offs between different technical approaches, or when performing complex refactoring.

Is this skill specific to a single programming language?

While it includes specific references for TypeScript, the core principles of engineering judgment, testing philosophy, and clean code are language-agnostic.

Does this skill work with my existing project rules?

Yes. The skill is designed so that user-defined preferences in CLAUDE.md and existing project patterns always override the skill's default suggestions.

How does this skill improve code quality?

It enforces rigorous standards such as making illegal states unrepresentable, explicit error handling, and specific function design constraints to ensure code is readable and maintainable.

開発者ツール

Applies senior-level engineering judgment, architectural best practices, and rigorous code quality standards to complex development tasks.

概要

This skill transforms Claude into a senior-level technical partner by providing a comprehensive framework for engineering judgment, architectural decision-making, and professional code standards. It guides the AI through evaluating technical trade-offs, implementing robust type-safe patterns, and determining when to refactor versus when to ship. By focusing on principles like 'making illegal states unrepresentable' and 'simplest thing that works,' this skill ensures code is not only functional but also maintainable, secure, and consistent with professional software engineering paradigms.
