## Tools
|
|
|
|
These tool paths should be used instead of any entry in the PATH environment variable:
|
|
|
|
- Python is installed in `C:\Users\frank\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python314`.
|
|
- MiKTeX portable is installed in `D:\Code\miktex-portable\texmfs\install\miktex\bin\x64`.
|
|
- Tesseract is installed in `C:\Program Files\Sejda PDF Desktop\resources\vendor\tesseract-windows-x64`.
|
|
|
|
## Rules
|
|
|
|
- Prefer extracting code to a shared helper to be reused instead of duplicating code. Always keep high maintainability standards.
|
|
- Keep changes as small as possible, design solutions that achieve the goals with minimal churn.
|
|
- Always place each newly created class into its own file. The file name must match the class name.
|
|
- When asked to begin working on a task, create a detailed implementation plan first, present the plan to the user, and ask for approval before beginning with the actual implementation.
|
|
- Don't make assumptions in the plan. If necessary, ask all clarifying questions before presenting the final plan.
|
|
- When an task is finished, perform a code review to evaluate if the change is clean and maintainable with high software engineering standards. Iterate on the code and repeat the review process until satisfied.
|
|
- After the implementation is finished, verify all changed files, and run `python D:\Code\crlf.py $file1 $file2 ...` only for files you recognize, in order to normalize all line endings of all touched files to CRLF.
|
|
- If there's documnentation present, always keep it updated.
|
|
- After every iteration, evaluate if the test coverage would fall below 100%, and write tests if necessary.
|
|
- After every iteration, run `jb cleanupcode --build=False $file1;$file2;...` for every file you touched.
|
|
- After every frontend change, verify the results using an ephemeral playwright.
|
|
|
|
### Git
|
|
|
|
- Never change the .gitignore file without consent.
|
|
- Keep changes small and commit often. If one iteration encompasses many smaller tasks with more than one commit, create a git branch and do the commits there. Let me review the branch before merging it back to master.
|
|
- When multiple commits are necessary, pause after every commit and ask the user to give a command to proceed.
|
|
- After every iteration, do a git commit with a brief summary of the changes as a commit message.
|
|
- If you find unexpected changes in the code (deletions, changes, diff results that were not communicated), never revert them and never restore the old state. Assume that those changes happened with intent.
|
|
- Never use `git restore`, `git checkout --`, reset commands, or equivalent rollback actions to discard local changes unless the user explicitly asks for that exact rollback.
|
|
|
|
### PowerShell
|
|
|
|
- This is a Windows environment, WSL is not installed (i.e. sed is not available). You're running under PowerShell 7.5.5. Due to platform restrictions, file deletions are not possible. Replacing the entire file content via a context diff is a viable alternative.
|
|
- PowerShell doesn't support bash-style heredocs. If complex scripts need to be executed, consider using python as a last resort. Run Python code using python -c with inline commands instead of python - <<'PY'.
|
|
- Parallel PowerShell calls are flaky, stick to sequential reads and command execution.
|
|
- Commands like `rg` and `Get-Content` are always allowed.
|
|
|
|
### Dotnet CLI
|
|
|
|
- If a build fails with 0 errors / 0 warnings:
|
|
- Do not keep retrying the same build command
|
|
- Consider using --no-restore.
|
|
- Consider using `$env:DOTNET_SKIP_FIRST_TIME_EXPERIENCE = '1'`
|
|
- Consider using `$env:NUGET_PACKAGES = Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE '.nuget\packages'`
