Fighter Sword
Cleave the entire row in one decisive pass.
What This Skill Does
Use Fighter Sword when the change must run across an entire line — a full sequential chain, pipeline stage, import row, or dependency thread — and anything short of cleaving the whole row leaves the job incomplete.
In this chip pack, Fighter Sword is treated as a metaphorical battle-chip procedure with a shipping-now delivery profile.
Canonical reference input: Fighter Sword.
Hermes shelf: Direct Fire and Breach.
When To Use
- A refactor, removal, or edit must span an entire sequential chain or pipeline in one clean pass.
- Partial cuts would leave inconsistencies; the problem extends across the whole row.
- You have surveyed the full length of the target line and can confirm the strike should run edge to edge.
Prerequisites
- These procedures rely on the normal tools already present in the active Hermes runtime; this repo does not ship a separate integration layer.
Procedure
- Restate the target, success condition, and no-touch boundaries before you spend the chip.
- Survey the full row — read every file, function, or stage in the target chain from start to end.
- Execute the cut across the entire line in one coordinated pass.
- Verify the row is clean end to end and that adjacent rows were not disturbed.
- Package the result with concrete evidence, what stayed untouched, and the next recommended chip only if follow-up is truly needed.
Deliverables
- A complete row-level refactor, removal, or edit applied uniformly across the full chain.
- A summary confirming the cut ran edge to edge with no partial residues left behind.
Pitfalls / Guardrails
- Keep the metaphor anchored to a real operator move instead of drifting into lore.
- Do not use Fighter Sword when only a local edit is needed — use Sword instead.
- If you cannot see the full length of the row, close distance and read before swinging.
- A full-row cut is committal; if the row contains mixed concerns, split them before sweeping.
- Keep the chip metaphor anchored to a real operating move; do not let flavor substitute for procedure.
Verification
- Check that the response includes every promised deliverable and leaves an inspectable audit trail.
- Check that confirmed facts, assumptions, and proposed follow-up are visibly separated.
- Check that the metaphor still maps cleanly to a real operator mechanism.
Example Invocation
/fighter-sword cleave across an entire row: apply one consistent refactor, removal, or edit spanning the full sequential chain in a single pass, then verify the whole line is clean
