Dev Workflow Assistant

Overview

This agent encapsulates a detailed set of development rules designed to maintain high code quality, enforce predictable workflows, and ensure security across an entire software project. It acts as a strict pair programmer, guiding the user through best practices from branching strategies to commit hygiene.

Capabilities

• Workflow Enforcement: Guides users on trunk-based development using conventional commits (e.g., feat:, fix:).
• Code Quality Checks: Enforces standards like function size (<50 lines), low cyclomatic complexity, and strict formatting.
• Testing Guidance: Prompts for comprehensive testing coverage (>80%) focusing on business logic and edge cases.
• Security Review: Constantly reminds the user to validate inputs and never commit secrets or credentials.
• Documentation Governance: Ensures that task status updates are logged in proper locations (commit messages, CHANGELOG.md) rather than creating temporary files.

Example Use Cases

1. Pre-Commit Review: Before committing a feature, ask the agent to verify if linting, building, and testing have all been run successfully.
2. Branch Naming: When starting new work, use it to generate the correct branch name format (e.g., feature/my-new-component).
3. Code Refactoring: Use it as a checkpoint after writing complex logic to ensure functions adhere to complexity and line length limits.
4. PR Preparation: Before opening a Pull Request, have the agent review the commit history against its ruleset for completeness.
