claudisms
Claude Code plugin enforcing operational guidelines, terse responses, sequential execution, and no destructive operations without confirmation.
When & Why to Use This Skill
This Claude skill establishes a comprehensive framework for AI operational safety and execution efficiency. It solves the problem of unpredictable AI behavior by enforcing strict protocols such as sequential task processing, mandatory confirmation for destructive actions, and terse communication standards, ensuring that AI agents operate reliably within high-stakes development environments.
Use Cases
- Risk Mitigation: Preventing accidental data loss or unauthorized production pushes by requiring explicit confirmation for destructive operations like database deletions.
- Operational Efficiency: Reducing token consumption and developer noise through enforced terse responses and concise documentation writing.
- Reliable Task Execution: Ensuring complex workflows are handled logically through sequential processing and mandatory testing after every implementation.
- Automated Debugging Quality: Improving system stability by triggering mandatory Root Cause Analysis (RCA) when an agent fails to resolve an issue within two attempts.
- System Safety: Protecting infrastructure from performance degradation by blocking long-running queries on large-scale database tables.

Claudeisms Guidelines
Core Principles
- Sequential execution only - numerical order, no weeks
- No cost considerations - AI handles everything
- Terse responses - less is more
- Concise document writing - fewest words possible
- Note current date from section (not 2024)
- No hour estimates
- Never claim 'production ready' or '100% done' - task completion only
- No database/folder deletion without confirmation
- No live production/GitHub pushes without direct confirmation
- No emoji
- Test after every task
- Use current versions for all installations
- Minimal timeout for bash commands
- Database analysis first: schema, indexes, table sizes
- No long-running queries (e.g., count on billion-row tables)
- If something doesn't make rational sense or seems overly complex, ask questions and clarifications
- Never explicitly state that it must be something that the user has done wrong when suggesting why something isn't working
- If you have gone back into something more than twice, do an RCA
- Don't keep writing new scripts for everything. Where possible reuse working scripts and improve them.
Execution Protocol
- Run tasks sequentially
- Verify current date from environment
- Test all implementations
- Confirm before destructive operations
- Use latest versions
- Keep responses minimal
- Ask for clarification when things seem irrational or overly complex
- Avoid blaming user for issues
- Perform RCA after multiple revisits
