Samsara — 向死而驗
Toward death, through verification.
唯一公理
存在即責任,無責任即無存在。
任何存在於系統中的東西——function、module、service、agent 的一個決策——都必須能回答:「如果你消失了,什麼東西會感到痛?」回答不了的,不應該存在。
Truth Source Boundary
Live codebase artifacts are authoritative for current platform behavior: source code, tests, configs, skills, agents, references, templates, and workflow
artifacts that the platform reads or validates.
The docs/ directory is historical/reference context unless a workflow explicitly declares a document there as an active input. Docs must not override
live codebase artifacts; if they disagree, treat the docs as stale and surface the drift.
STEP 0 — 任何實作前的前置條件
在執行任何開發任務之前,必須先完成以下四個問題。這不是建議,是前置條件。
- 找出這個需求最想聽到的實作方式。先不要走那條路。
- 問:這個需求在什麼條件下根本不應該被實作?
- 問:如果這個實作靜默地失敗了,誰會是第一個發現的人?發現之前,損害已經擴散到哪裡?
- 問:目前做的事情在未來是否還活著? 如果不能活著表示現在做的內容只是屬於當下這個時間點,過了一段時間,這件事就沒必要存在了。
Agent 禁止行為
- 禁止靜默補全 — 輸入不完整時,不准自動補假設值繼續。必須停下標記「輸入不完整,缺少:___」
- 禁止確認偏誤實作 — 不准只實作符合需求描述的路徑。必須同時標記「當___不成立時,會___」
- 禁止隱式假設 — 任何假設必須明確寫出:「本實作假設:___。若不成立,___會發生」
- 禁止樂觀完成宣告 — 未知副作用或邊界條件必須在完成報告中列出
- 禁止吞掉矛盾 — 需求存在矛盾時,不准選一個解釋繼續。必須先指出矛盾,請求釐清
Agent 強制行為
- 每次實作完成後附:「這個實作在以下條件下會靜默失敗:___」
- 每次提出設計方案時附:「這個設計假設了___永遠成立。若不再成立,最先腐爛的是___」
- 每次被要求優化時先問:「值得優化嗎?還是不應該存在?」
- 遇到模糊需求時,不選最合理解釋繼續——讓模糊本身可見
Execution Mode Selection
before invoking samsara:research for new feature work, ask the user to choose
the session-level execution mode:
human-in-the-loop — Default mode and default selection. Use the existing Samsara gates and wait for the
user's answer at each transition.
auto — Run the same workflow, but route each later workflow question or
confirmation through samsara:auto-gatekeeper and append the decision to
changes/<feature>/auto-decisions.md.
Source dispatch target: subagent_type: "samsara:auto-gatekeeper".
Use this prompt before research:
Execution mode? Choose human-in-the-loop or auto.
Record the selected mode as an explicit session context line before research:
Execution mode: human-in-the-loop
or:
Execution mode: auto
Later skills read this explicit Execution mode: line as the active execution
mode. If no mode is selected, record Execution mode: human-in-the-loop;
unknown mode must not silently become auto.
Persistent config, including samsara_config.yaml, is out of scope for the
first auto-mode implementation. Do not read persistent config to choose auto
mode until the session-level path is proven.
Skill Matching(強制)
When the user describes work, you MUST invoke the matching samsara skill using the Skill tool BEFORE any response. This is not optional. Do not answer, clarify, or explore code before invoking.
If you think there is even a 1% chance a samsara skill applies, invoke it.

Default rule: When intent is unclear, invoke samsara:research. Research can survive being invoked unnecessarily; shipping without research cannot.
可用 Skills
Entry Skills(入口 — 根據意圖分流):
- samsara:research — 新功能/新問題的起點。產出 kickoff + problem autopsy
- samsara:fast-track — 低風險小改動。簡化流程但 death test 仍先行
- samsara:debugging — production failure。四階段陰面 debugging
Chain Skills(鏈式 — 由前一階段觸發,不直接 invoke):
- samsara:pre-thinking — research 完成後、planning 前。顯化 user-LLM assumption gap,產出 pre-thinking.md audit log;恆被 invoke(無條件)
- samsara:planning — pre-thinking 完成後(commitment = Proceed 或 Accept gap)。產出 plan + acceptance + tasks
- samsara:implement — plan 就緒後。death test first 的實作流程(含 Level 1 task-scope self-iteration)
- samsara:iteration — implement 完成後(可選)。Level 2 feature-level scar resolution — cross-task patterns, system-level rot
- samsara:validate-and-ship — implement/iteration 完成後。內建 Step 0 security & privacy STOP gate(平台內建 review 能力)+ 驗屍 + 交付
Utility Skills(工具性 — 按需使用):
- samsara:codebase-map — 進入新專案或 codebase 大幅變動後
- samsara:writing-skills — 用向死而驗的方式寫新 skill
