Agent Style
Portable SDD wrapper for the vendored agent-style v0.3.5 rule pack.
This skill exists so Agent-Style support moves with .claude/skills/ when SDD
is applied to another project. It does not enable global writing style, does not
edit AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, and does not replace style-review.

Install Check
When asked whether Agent-Style is available in a target project, verify:
.claude/skills/agent-style/SKILL.md exists..claude/skills/agent-style/references/RULES.md exists..claude/skills/style-review/SKILL.md points to the bundled agent-style
references, not a required repository-level .agent-style/ directory.
If the target project still uses .agent-style/ directly, migrate by copying
this entire skill folder and updating style-review source paths.
CLI Check
For deterministic audits, check:
agent-style --version
If missing, report:
agent-style deterministic audit unavailable: `agent-style` CLI is not on PATH. Bundled rules remain available for semantic review through `.claude/skills/agent-style/references/`.
Do not install dependencies unless the user asks.
Audit Routing
For file review, use style-review. This skill supplies the portable rule pack;
style-review supplies the review workflow, audit command, polish invariants,
and completion evidence.
Use this skill directly only for:
- Checking whether Agent-Style travels with SDD apply/sync.
- Reading the pinned rules or upstream metadata.
- Migrating an older
.agent-style/-based repo into .claude/skills.
