Deploy and operate the zowex JSON-RPC server on a *remote* z/OS host over SSH, for end-user dataset/job/USS operations when that host has no working z/OSMF endpoint. Use when the user asks to "connect to <host> over ssh", "deploy zowex to <lpar>", or "use…
Create, verify, and remove z/OS test users under RACF, ACF2, or CA Top Secret, including the z/OS UNIX identity needed for SSH. Use when asked to "make a test user", "create a logonid/ACID", set a non-expiring password, unsuspend an account, or reproduce an…
Improve TypeScript code quality in CLI, SDK, and VS Code extension packages. Apply DRY, YAGNI, SRP principles to reduce duplication and complexity. Use when refactoring, deduplicating, simplifying, or improving code in packages/cli/ or packages/sdk/.
Review pull requests for the zowex codebase. Analyze C++ backend and middleware (ibm-clang), TypeScript clients (CLI, SDK, VS Code extension), and z/OS-specific concerns. Use when asked to review a PR, branch, or code changes.
Validate VS Code extensions and CLI plug-ins against Zowe V3 Conformance Criteria. Audit package.json, settings, commands, menus, profile usage, and API registration for conformance. Use when checking Zowe conformance, preparing for conformance submission,…
Use when writing, debugging, or maintaining tests for the native C/C++ and Metal C components in native/c/test/. Covers the custom ztest framework, test patterns, build system integration, and debugging test failures.
Guides users through creating new zowex commands across the Zowe Remote SSH stack (native C++, server, SDK). Use when the user wants to add a new command, implement a zowex command, or add functionality to the native backend.
Improve C++ code quality by identifying duplication, complexity, and design issues. Apply DRY, YAGNI, SRP principles. Use when refactoring, deduplicating, simplifying, or improving backend code in native/c/.
