Does it support automated testing?

Yes, for every behavioral change, the skill will propose a specific validation step such as a unit test or a focused build command.

Can I use this for destructive operations?

By default, this skill avoids destructive actions unless you explicitly request them, providing an extra layer of safety for your codebase.

Will this skill add new dependencies to my project?

No, it specifically prefers using existing repository patterns and utilities to keep your project lightweight and consistent.

What happens if my requirements are unclear?

The skill is programmed to stop and ask 1–3 clarifying questions before implementing code to ensure the work aligns with your goals.

How does this skill handle large code changes?

It defaults to creating minimal, reviewable patches rather than large diffs, making it easier for human developers to audit and approve changes.
