Use when: other imbue skills need common patterns, creating new analysis skills, ensuring consistency across imbue plugin

DO NOT use directly: this skill is infrastructure for other imbue skills.

Shared Infrastructure for Imbue

Purpose

Reusable patterns for analysis workflows, evidence logging, understanding verification, and structured outputs used across imbue skills and by dependent plugins (pensive, sanctum).

Modules

Anti-Cargo-Cult Reasoning

The modules/anti-cargo-cult.md module prevents superficial technical artifacts:

• Understanding verification protocol (Five Whys)
• Cargo cult red flags (code-level, thought-level, AI-specific)
• Integration with proof-of-work, scope-guard, rigorous-reasoning
• Recovery protocol for detected cargo cult code

TodoWrite Patterns

The modules/todowrite-patterns.md module documents naming conventions:

• Pattern: skill-name:step-name
• Common prefixes: evidence-logging, diff-analysis, review-core, catchup
• Examples from all imbue skills

Evidence Formats

The modules/evidence-formats.md module standardizes evidence capture:

• Command logging format [E1], [E2]
• Citation format [C1], [C2]
• Artifact indexing conventions
• Reference linking in findings

Analysis Workflows

The modules/analysis-workflows.md module provides workflow templates:

• Diff analysis flow
• Catchup workflow patterns
• Structured output generation

When to Reference

• New skill development: Use patterns for consistency
• Cross-plugin integration: Reference evidence formats from pensive, sanctum
• Template generation: Use output formats for reports

Integration Notes

This skill provides infrastructure used by:

• pensive:*-review skills via dependencies: [imbue:evidence-logging]
• sanctum:git-workspace-review for analysis patterns
• Any skill needing reproducible evidence trails

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Command not found Ensure all dependencies are installed and in PATH

Permission errors Check file permissions and run with appropriate privileges

Unexpected behavior Enable verbose logging with --verbose flag
