context-engineering

Feed agents the right information at the right time. Context is the single biggest lever for agent output quality — too little and the agent hallucinates, too much and it loses focus. Context engineering is the practice of deliberately curating what the agent sees, when it sees it, and how it's structured.

SkillJury keeps community verdicts, source metadata, and external repository signals in separate lanes so ranking data never pretends to be a review.

About this skill
Feed agents the right information at the right time. Context is the single biggest lever for agent output quality — too little and the agent hallucinates, too much and it loses focus. Context engineering is the practice of deliberately curating what the agent sees, when it sees it, and how it's structured. Structure context from most persistent to most transient: Create a rules file that persists across sessions. This is the highest-leverage context you can provide. CLAUDE.md (for Claude Code): Equivalent files for other tools: Load the relevant spec section when starting a feature. Don't load the entire spec if only one section applies. Effective: "Here's the authentication section of our spec: [auth spec content]" Wasteful: "Here's our entire 5000-word spec: [full spec]" (when only working on auth) Before editing a file, read it.

Source description provided by the upstream listing. Community review signal and install context stay separate from this narrative layer.

frontend-ui-engineering

Build production-quality user interfaces that are accessible, performant, and visually polished. The goal is UI that looks like it was built by a design-aware engineer at a top company — not like it was generated by an AI.

planning-and-task-breakdown

Decompose work into small, verifiable tasks with explicit acceptance criteria. Good task breakdown is the difference between an agent that completes work reliably and one that produces a tangled mess. Every task should be small enough to implement, test, and verify in a single focused session.

spec-driven-development

Write a structured specification before writing any code. The spec is the shared source of truth between you and the human engineer — it defines what we're building, why, and how we'll know it's done. Code without a spec is guessing.
