name: fullstack-agents-constitution
description: "Create and maintain a per-project constitution — the versioned, normative principles file that codebase-scanning loads and all gates check against (layer rules, language lanes, wire contract, quality limits). Use when asked to create, update, or check a project constitution, bootstrap project principles, or when a governed project has no constitution yet. Do not use for the plugin's own global rules (those live in the skills)."

## Codex runtime binding

Follow the bundle's `AGENTS.md` and `fullstack-agents-task-flow`: Codex leads,
Claude audits bounded diffs through `scripts/handoff.py`. Read only relevant
skill sections once. Existing user authorization wins over historical approval
steps. Native Codex roles replace Claude tools/dispatchers/hooks below. Bundle
paths resolve from the bundle; skill paths resolve beside `SKILL.md`. Validate
explicitly; do not assume historical hooks or dashboards are running.

## Engineering guide

The complete adapted rules are in [references/engineering-guide.md](references/engineering-guide.md). Before acting, read its relevant requirements/checklist sections and only the examples you need. Start with the section index below and read at most 200 lines per call. Load the complete guide only when the task spans all of it. Paths inside that guide remain relative to this skill directory, beside `SKILL.md`. Project patterns and the constitution win over template defaults.
