Individual skill

ai-coding-discipline

Mandatory coding discipline rules that prevent common AI coding anti-patterns. MUST be loaded for ALL code writing, editing, reviewing, bug fixing, and testing tasks. Trigger on: writing code, editing code, fixing bugs, writing tests, implementing features, refactoring, code review, creating functions, adding error handling, debugging. This skill enforces fail-fast principles, proper error propagation, meaningful tests, and disciplined debugging workflows. Always active when Claude writes or modifies code.

# AI Coding Discipline

> These rules override default AI coding tendencies. Follow them in ALL code you write or modify.

---

## Rule 1: No Silent Fallbacks

**Never use fallback values to mask data that should not be missing.**

```typescript
// FORBIDDEN — hides upstream bugs
const price = product?.price ?? 0;
const userName = user?.name || "Unknown";
