Individual skill
layer-new
Scaffold a new layer in a project's docs/layers/ tree following the feature-layer architecture (principle 28). A layer is a bounded concern (security, data, ui, infrastructure, domain) with its own invariants, decisions, gotchas, patterns, and feature narratives. Use when: "create a new layer", "add security layer", "scaffold layer", "start tracking <concern> separately", "/layer-new", "add bounded concern". Operates on the kb-skeleton structure; idempotent -- will not overwrite existing layers. Do NOT use to scaffold an individual feature narrative inside an existing layer; use /feature-new for that (a layer is the container, not the per-feature doc).

# /layer-new -- scaffold a project layer
Creates `docs/layers/<layer-name>/` with the full template structure
defined by [principle 28](https://github.com/AnastasiyaW/codex-claude-code-config/blob/main/principles/28-feature-layer-architecture.md).
## When to use
- Starting to track a new bounded concern in a long-running project
- Refactoring sprawling cross-cutting code into a documented layer
- Onboarding a new team member who needs the layer map
## When NOT to use
- One-off scripts or pet projects with <5 features (overhead not
