Governance Skill
Enforces engineering standards and code quality policies with parallel agent execution for context efficiency.
Standards Document: standards.md (starter default — replace with your own)
Audit Script: npm run audit:standards
Full Protocol: agent-prompt.md
Execution Model (v2.1)
Type: Delegated Execution — delegates to the built-in reviewer subagent type.
This skill uses the reviewer subagent (available in all Claude Code installations — no custom agent required):
- Spawn the reviewer agent
- Delegate the governance task with instructions from
agent-prompt.md
- Await completion
- Report the structured summary to the user
Token Efficiency
| Execution Mode | Token Usage | Benefit |
|---|
| Direct (v1.x) | ~3,000–8,000 | Full context in main thread |
| Delegated (v2.x) | ~500–800 | 70–90% token savings |
How to Invoke
When this skill is triggered, read agent-prompt.md for the full protocol, then delegate:
Code Review
Task({
description: "Governance code review",
prompt: `[See agent-prompt.md for full instructions]
Review the following files for standards compliance:
- [list files or PR description]
Execute full code review workflow:
1. Run standards audit
2. Check each file against standards.md
3. Fix ALL issues immediately (zero deferral)
4. Return structured summary`,
subagent_type: "reviewer"
})
Pre-Commit Check
Task({
description: "Pre-commit governance",
prompt: `[See agent-prompt.md for full instructions]
Run pre-commit governance checks:
1. typecheck, lint, format:check, test
2. Check for untracked source files
3. Return pass/fail with specific failures`,
:
})
