name	rules-installer
description	Install Semantic-Linter project rules into AGENTS.md and or CLAUDE.md so the model can load semantic guidance on demand while editing instruction files.

Rules Installer

Install Semantic-Linter into the user's current project by generating two artifacts:

• semantic-rules.md: the full semantic guidance file
• a managed block in AGENTS.md and or CLAUDE.md: the lightweight always-present pointer

What This Skill Must Do

1. Detect the current project directory with pwd.
2. Locate scripts/build-rules.js from the active plugin or local source checkout.
3. Run:

node "<SCRIPT>" --existing "$(pwd)"

4. Run:

node "<SCRIPT>" --check --existing "$(pwd)"

5. Tell the user:
   • which files were written
   • whether validation passed
   • that the default mode is guarded
   • that project-local semantic-rules.md is preferred over the plugin fallback

Important Rules

• Never hand-write semantic-rules.md.
• Never hand-write the managed <!-- STL:RULES:BEGIN --> block.
• If both AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md already exist, update both.
• If neither file exists, let build-rules.js create the host-appropriate default target.

Runtime Model

Semantic-Linter is no longer pointer-only.

• Claude can use SessionStart, SubagentStart, UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, and PostToolUse.
• Codex relies on the managed project instruction file and on-demand rule loading.
• pointer mode keeps only the lightweight pointer.
• guarded mode adds write-time lint checks.
• strict mode also enables prompt scanning.

When To Suggest Follow-up Commands

• /stl-rules after policy or lexicon changes
• /stl-lexicon when the user wants to add or refine trap pairs
• npm run scan -- <file> when the user wants an explicit one-off scan
