AI Frontmatter & Provenance FAQs

Question 1

Does this skill work with all programming languages?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it supports a wide range of languages by automatically detecting the correct comment character (such as # or //) and utilizes YAML frontmatter specifically for Markdown files.

Question 2

Can Claude mark a file as human-reviewed using this skill?

Accepted Answer

No, the skill explicitly prevents AI agents from setting 'human-reviewed' to true. Only human developers can manually verify and update this status to ensure code quality.

Question 3

How do I see which files in my project haven't been reviewed yet?

Accepted Answer

You can use the 'scan' command which generates a comprehensive report of your repository, grouping files by directory and showing counts for stamped, reviewed, and unstamped files.

Question 4

What happens when an AI modifies a file that was already reviewed?

Accepted Answer

The skill automatically resets the 'human-reviewed' flag to false whenever the AI agent edits a file, signaling that the new changes require a fresh human audit.

Question 5

Can I prevent the AI from seeing or editing specific files?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by setting the 'access' field to 'read' (read-only) or 'hidden' (no access), you can strictly control the agent's permissions on a per-file basis.
