workflow-patterns
The workflow-patterns skill provides guidance for implementing tasks using Conductor's test-driven development workflow, including phase checkpoint management, git commit handling, and verification protocols. Use this skill when executing tasks from a track's plan.md file, following the red-green-refactor cycle, completing quality assurance gates, or understanding best practices for maintaining code quality throughout implementation phases.

# Workflow Patterns Guide for implementing tasks using Conductor's TDD workflow, managing phase checkpoints, handling git commits, and executing the verification protocol that ensures quality throughout implementation. ## When to Use This Skill - Implementing tasks from a track's plan.md - Following TDD red-green-refactor cycle - Completing phase checkpoints - Managing git commits and notes - Understanding quality assurance gates - Handling verification protocols - Recording progress in plan files ## Detailed patterns and worked examples Detailed pattern documentation lives in `references/details.md`. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient. ## Best Practices 1. **Never skip RED**: Always write failing tests first 2. **Small commits**: One logical change per commit 3. **Immediate updates**: Update plan.md right after task completion 4. **Wait for approval**: Never skip checkpoint verification 5. **Rich git notes**: Include context that helps future understanding 6. **Coverage discipline**: Don't accept coverage below target 7. **Quality gates**: Check all gates before marking complete 8. **Sequential phases**: Complete phases in order 9. **Document deviations**: Note any changes from original plan 10. **Clean state**: Each commit should leave code in working state 11. **Fast feedback**: Run relevant tests frequently during development 12. **Clear blockers**: Address blockers promptly, don't work around them
Build production Apache Airflow DAGs with best practices for operators, sensors, testing, and deployment. Use when creating data pipelines, orchestrating workflows, or scheduling batch jobs.
Migrate from AngularJS to Angular using hybrid mode, incremental component rewriting, and dependency injection updates. Use when upgrading AngularJS applications, planning framework migrations, or modernizing legacy Angular code.
Master REST and GraphQL API design principles to build intuitive, scalable, and maintainable APIs that delight developers. Use when designing new APIs, reviewing API specifications, or establishing API design standards.
Write and maintain Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) following best practices for technical decision documentation. Use when documenting significant technical decisions, reviewing past architectural choices, or establishing decision processes.
Implement proven backend architecture patterns including Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, and Domain-Driven Design. Use this skill when designing clean architecture for a new microservice, when refactoring a monolith to use bounded contexts, when implementing hexagonal or onion architecture patterns, or when debugging dependency cycles between application layers.
Master authentication and authorization patterns including JWT, OAuth2, session management, and RBAC to build secure, scalable access control systems. Use when implementing auth systems, securing APIs, or debugging security issues.
Audit and rewrite prose so it stops reading as machine-generated. Use this skill when asked to remove AI-isms, clean up AI writing, edit a draft for AI tells, audit a README, changelog, release note, PR description, or blog post for machine-sounding prose, or make text sound less like AI. Supports a detect-only mode, a rewrite mode, and an edit-in-place mode, with optional voice and context profiles.
Optimize Bazel builds for large-scale monorepos. Use when configuring Bazel, implementing remote execution, or optimizing build performance for enterprise codebases.
