- ## Hallucination Traps (Read First)
11
- - ❌ Over-abstracting code that is used in only one place -> ✅ Don't DRY single-use code; premature abstraction is worse than duplication
12
- - ❌ Adding comments that restate what the code does -> ✅ Comments explain WHY, not WHAT; the code explains what
13
- - Creating utility functions for trivial one-liners -> ✅ Inline is clearer when the operation is self-documenting

22
- ## Naming
23
-
24
- ### Variables & Functions
25
-
26
- ```typescript
27
- // BAD: Cryptic, abbreviated, meaningless
28
- const d = new Date();
29
- const u = getU();
30
- const flag = true;
31
- function proc(x: number): number { return x * 1.08; }
32
-
33
- // GOOD: Self-documenting, reveals intent
34
- const registrationDate = new Date();
35
- const currentUser = getCurrentUser();
36
- const isEligibleForDiscount = true;
37
- function addSalesTax(price: number): number { return price * 1.08; }
38
- ```
39
-
40
- ### Booleans
41
-
42
- ```typescript
43
- // BAD ✅ GOOD
44
- const active = true; const isActive = true;
45
- const admin = false; const hasAdminRole = false;
46
- const loading = true; const isLoading = true;
47
- const open = false; const isModalOpen = false;
48
- const valid = true; const canSubmit = true;
49
-
50
- // Boolean function names start with is/has/can/should
51
- function isExpired(token: Token): boolean {}
52
- function hasPermission(user: User, action: string): boolean {}
53
- function canRetry(attempt: number): boolean {}
54
- function shouldNotify(event: Event): boolean {}
55
- ```
56
-
57
- ### Constants & Enums
58
-
59
- ```typescript
60
- // BAD: Magic numbers and strings
61
- if (user.role === 3) { ... }
62
- if (retries > 5) { ... }
63
- const delay = 86400000;
64
-
65
- // GOOD: Named constants with meaning
66
- const MAX_RETRY_ATTEMPTS = 5;
67
- const ONE_DAY_MS = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
68
-
69
- enum UserRole {
70
- VIEWER = "viewer",
71
- EDITOR = "editor",
72
- ADMIN = "admin",
73
- }
74
-
75
- if (user.role === UserRole.ADMIN) { ... }
76
- if (retries > MAX_RETRY_ATTEMPTS) { ... }
77
- ```
78
-
79
- ---
80
-
81
- ## Function Design
82
-
83
- ### Small, Single-Purpose Functions
84
-
85
- ```typescript
86
- // ❌ BAD: Does 5 things in one function
87
- async function processOrder(order: Order) {
88
- // validate
89
- if (!order.items.length) throw new Error("Empty");
90
- if (order.total < 0) throw new Error("Negative");
91
- // calculate
92
- const subtotal = order.items.reduce((sum, i) => sum + i.price * i.qty, 0);
93
- const tax = subtotal * 0.08;
94
- const total = subtotal + tax;
95
- // save
96
- await db.orders.insert({ ...order, total });
97
- // notify
98
- await emailService.send(order.userId, "Order placed");
99
- // log
100
- logger.info("Order processed", { orderId: order.id });
101
- }
102
-
103
- // ✅ GOOD: Each function does one thing
104
- async function processOrder(order: Order): Promise<ProcessedOrder> {
105
- validateOrder(order);
106
- const totals = calculateTotals(order.items);
107
- const savedOrder = await saveOrder(order, totals);
108
- await notifyCustomer(savedOrder);
109
- return savedOrder;
110
- }
111
-
112
- function validateOrder(order: Order): void {
113
- if (!order.items.length) throw new ValidationError("Order cannot be empty");
114
- if (order.total < 0) throw new ValidationError("Total cannot be negative");
115
- }
116
-
117
- function calculateTotals(items: OrderItem[]): OrderTotals {
118
- const subtotal = items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price * item.quantity, 0);
119
- const tax = subtotal * TAX_RATE;
120
- return { subtotal, tax, total: subtotal + tax };
121
- }
122
- ```
123
-
124
- ### Parameter Rules
125
-
126
- ```typescript
127
- // ❌ BAD: Too many parameters
128
- function createUser(
129
- name: string, email: string, role: string,
130
- isActive: boolean, avatar: string, bio: string

174
-
175
- ### O Open/Closed
176
-
177
- ```typescript
178
- // ❌ BAD: Adding a new type requires modifying existing code

- ## Code Smells → Refactoring
292
-
293
- ```
294
- Smell → Refactoring
295
- ───────────────────────────────────────
296
- Long function (>30 lines) → Extract method
297
- Deep nesting (>3 levels) → Early return / guard clauses
298
- Duplicate code → Extract shared function
299
- Magic numbers → Named constants
300
- Boolean parameters → Separate methods or options object
301
- God class (>300 lines) → Split into focused classes
302
- Feature envy → Move method to appropriate class
303
- Primitive obsession → Value objects (Email, Money, UserId)
304
- Long parameter list → Parameter object
305
- ```
306
-
307
- ```typescript
308
- // Deep nesting → Early return
309
- // ❌ BAD
310
- function processUser(user: User) {
311
- if (user) {
312
- if (user.isActive) {
313
- if (user.hasPermission("edit")) {
314
- // actual logic buried 3 levels deep

324
- if (!user.isActive) return;
325

338
- AI coding assistants often fall into specific bad habits when dealing with this domain. These are strictly forbidden:
339
-
340
- 1. **Over-engineering:** Proposing complex abstractions or distributed systems when a simpler approach suffices.
341
- 2. **Hallucinated Libraries/Methods:** Using non-existent methods or packages. Always `// VERIFY` or check `package.json` / `requirements.txt`.
342
- 3. **Skipping Edge Cases:** Writing the "happy path" and ignoring error handling, timeouts, or data validation.
343
- 4. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
344
- 5. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or re-raising.
345
-
346
- ---
347
-
348
-
349
-
350
- **Slash command: `/review` or `/tribunal-full`**
351
- **Active reviewers: `logic-reviewer` · `security-auditor`**
352
-
353
- ### ❌ Forbidden AI Tropes
354
-
355
- 1. **Blind Assumptions:** Never make an assumption without documenting it clearly with `// VERIFY: [reason]`.
356
- 2. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or handling.
357
- 3. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
358
-
359
-
360
-
361
- Review these questions before confirming output:
362
- ```
363
- ✅ Did I rely ONLY on real, verified tools and methods?
364
- ✅ Is this solution appropriately scoped to the user's constraints?
365
- ✅ Did I handle potential failure modes and edge cases?
366
- ✅ Have I avoided generic boilerplate that doesn't add value?
367
- ```
368
-
369
- ### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
370
-
371
- **CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
372
- - ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring a task complete because the output "looks correct."
373
- - ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from finalizing any task without providing **concrete evidence** (terminal output, passing tests, compile success, or equivalent proof) that your output works as intended.
374
-
375
-
376
- ## Pre-Flight Checklist
377
- - [ ] Have I reviewed the user's specific constraints and requests?
378
- - [ ] Have I checked the environment for relevant existing implementations?
379
-
380
- ## VBC Protocol (Verification-Before-Completion)
381
- You MUST verify existing code signatures and variables before attempting to modify or call them. No hallucination is permitted.

13
+ ## Hallucination Traps (Read First)
14
+
15
+ - ❌ Over-abstracting code that is used in only one place -> ✅ Don't DRY single-use code; premature abstraction is worse than duplication
16
+ - ❌ Adding comments that restate what the code does -> ✅ Comments explain WHY, not WHAT; the code explains what
17
+ - ❌ Creating utility functions for trivial one-liners -> ✅ Inline is clearer when the operation is self-documenting

25
+ ## Naming
26
+
27
+ ### Variables & Functions
28
+
29
+ ```typescript
30
+ // BAD: Cryptic, abbreviated, meaningless
31
+ const d = new Date();
32
+ const u = getU();
33
+ const flag = true;
34
+ function proc(x: number): number {
35

37
+
38
+ // ✅ GOOD: Self-documenting, reveals intent
39
+ const registrationDate = new Date();
40
+ const currentUser = getCurrentUser();
41
+ const isEligibleForDiscount = true;
42
+ function addSalesTax(price: number): number {
43
+ return price * 1.08;
44
+ }
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ ### Booleans
48
+
49
+ ```typescript
50
+ // BAD ✅ GOOD
51
+ const active = true;
52
+ const isActive = true;
53

65

68
+
69
+ ### Constants & Enums
70
+
71
+ ```typescript
72
+ // BAD: Magic numbers and strings
73
+ if (user.role === 3) { ... }
74
+ if (retries > 5) { ... }
75
+ const delay = 86400000;
76
+
77
+ // ✅ GOOD: Named constants with meaning
78
+ const MAX_RETRY_ATTEMPTS = 5;
79

92
+
93
+ ## Function Design
94
+
95
+ ### Small, Single-Purpose Functions
96
+
97
+ ```typescript
98
+ // BAD: Does 5 things in one function
99
+ async function processOrder(order: Order) {
100

106
+ const total = subtotal + tax;
107
+ // save
108

109
+ // notify
110
+ await emailService.send(order.userId, "Order placed");
111
+ // log
112
+ logger.info("Order processed", { orderId: order.id });
113
+ }
114
+
115
+ // ✅ GOOD: Each function does one thing
116
+ async function processOrder(order: Order): Promise<ProcessedOrder> {
117

118
+ const totals = calculateTotals(order.items);
119

127
+ }
128

130

131
+ const tax = subtotal * TAX_RATE;
132
+ return { subtotal, tax, total: subtotal + tax };
133
+ }
134
+ ```
135
+
136
+ ### Parameter Rules
137

316
+ Smell → Refactoring
317
+ ───────────────────────────────────────
318
+ Long function (>30 lines) → Extract method
319
+ Deep nesting (>3 levels) → Early return / guard clauses
320
+ Duplicate code → Extract shared function
321
+ Magic numbers → Named constants
322
+ Boolean parameters → Separate methods or options object
323
+ God class (>300 lines) → Split into focused classes
324
+ Feature envy → Move method to appropriate class
325
+ Primitive obsession → Value objects (Email, Money, UserId)
326
+ Long parameter list → Parameter object

357
+ AI coding assistants often fall into specific bad habits when dealing with this domain. These are strictly forbidden:
358
+
359
+ 1. **Over-engineering:** Proposing complex abstractions or distributed systems when a simpler approach suffices.
360
+ 2. **Hallucinated Libraries/Methods:** Using non-existent methods or packages. Always `// VERIFY` or check `package.json` / `requirements.txt`.
361
+ 3. **Skipping Edge Cases:** Writing the "happy path" and ignoring error handling, timeouts, or data validation.
362
+ 4. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
363
+ 5. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or re-raising.
364
+
365

366
+
367
+ **Slash command: `/review` or `/tribunal-full`**
368
+ **Active reviewers: `logic-reviewer` · `security-auditor`**
369
+
370
+ ### ❌ Forbidden AI Tropes
371
+
372
+ 1. **Blind Assumptions:** Never make an assumption without documenting it clearly with `// VERIFY: [reason]`.
373
+ 2. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or handling.
374
+ 3. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
375

376
+ Review these questions before confirming output:
377
+
378
+ ```
379
+ ✅ Did I rely ONLY on real, verified tools and methods?
380
+ ✅ Is this solution appropriately scoped to the user's constraints?
381
+ ✅ Did I handle potential failure modes and edge cases?
382
+ ✅ Have I avoided generic boilerplate that doesn't add value?
383
+ ```
384
+
385
+ ### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
386
+
387
+ **CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
388
+
389
+ - ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring a task complete because the output "looks correct."
390
+ - ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from finalizing any task without providing **concrete evidence** (terminal output, passing tests, compile success, or equivalent proof) that your output works as intended.
391
+
392
+ ## Pre-Flight Checklist
393
+
394
+ - [ ] Have I reviewed the user's specific constraints and requests?
395
+ - [ ] Have I checked the environment for relevant existing implementations?
396
+
397
+ ## VBC Protocol (Verification-Before-Completion)
398
+
399
+ You MUST verify existing code signatures and variables before attempting to modify or call them. No hallucination is permitted.
