Helps users write sharp, constraining project values (VALUES.md) — both product values and engineering values that serve them. Use this skill whenever the user wants to define project values, create a VALUES.md, write guiding principles, establish a project philosophy, or figure out "what matters" for their codebase. Also trigger when users say things like "my AI keeps over-engineering", "too much abstraction", "I need guardrails for my project", "how do I stop framework drift", "what should my product care about", or "I have a PRD but no values" — these are values problems even if the user doesn't know it yet.
