When should I use this skill?

You should use it first for any task involving the Zireael repository, particularly when modifying the ABI, platform code, or changing memory behavior.

How does this skill handle platform-specific code?

It enforces a hard constraint where OS-specific headers and logic are strictly limited to the platform backends (win32/posix), keeping the core engine platform-independent.

Can it help with memory management in C?

Yes, it enforces a 'locked' ownership model where the engine owns all its allocations and callers never free engine-managed memory, reducing the risk of leaks and double-frees.

What is the primary role of Zireael Spec Guardian?

It serves as a compliance engine that ensures all modifications to the Zireael codebase follow strict architectural rules, safety guardrails, and memory management policies.

Security & Testing

Enforces architectural boundaries, memory safety, and documentation compliance for the Zireael terminal UI engine.

Zireael Spec Guardian is a specialized utility designed to maintain the integrity of the Zireael terminal UI core engine by enforcing strict architectural boundaries and safety guardrails. It acts as a deterministic gatekeeper for C projects, ensuring that code changes comply with predefined specifications such as the exclusion of OS-specific headers from core modules, strict memory ownership rules, and standardized error handling. By auditing commits against 'locked' documentation and safety rulesets, it prevents architectural drift and undefined behavior in low-level system code.
