Process Rules

Single authority for changes to processes, rules, and workflows.

When This Skill Activates

• Adding a new workflow
• Recording a mistake/lesson
• Updating process documentation
• Proposing new rules
• After sessions with repeated errors
• Process consistency audits

Scope

This skill exclusively owns:

• Workflow definitions
• Lessons learned documentation
• Process guides and references
• Rule proposals

Responsibilities

1. Create/Edit Workflows

• Check existing workflows for conflicts
• Follow standard templates
• Update guides if adding new workflow

2. Record Lessons Learned

When a mistake is identified:

## Lesson: [Title]
- **Date**: YYYY-MM-DD
- **Mistake**: What went wrong
- **Symptom**: How it manifested
- **Fix**: How to prevent it
- **Rule**: (Optional) Proposed rule

3. Propose Rule Changes

For rules that should apply automatically:

1. Draft the rule text
2. Present to user for approval
3. User applies in settings

4. Audit Consistency

Periodically check:

• Workflows don't contradict each other
• Guides match actual workflows
• Lessons learned is up to date

Change Log Protocol

When making changes:

## SOP Change - [DATE]
- **What**: [Description of change]
- **Why**: [Rationale]
- **Files**: [List of files modified]

Anti-Patterns

• Editing workflows without proper review
• Adding lessons without date/context
• Creating overlapping workflows
• Proposing rules without user approval

Files Under Management

File Type	Purpose
workflows/*.md	Role and process definitions
LESSONS_LEARNED.md	Persistent mistake memory
GUIDE.md	Quick reference
pre-commit hooks	Automated checks
