Before transitioning to any new architectural phase, the project MUST achieve **80% debug web coverage** (stable core flows, zero silent console errors). + +### Protocol Steps (The "Web-Debug-7" Protocol) +1. **Console First**: Inspect browser console for errors and warnings. Report the exact error message and stack trace. +2. **Network Inspection**: For any data flow issue, inspect the Network tab. Check HTTP status codes (2xx, 4xx, 5xx), response payloads, and latency. +3. **State Audit**: Verify component state, props, and context (React/Vue/Svelte). Ensure the frontend state is synchronized with the backend. +4. **Backend Correlation**: Cross-reference frontend errors with backend logs (FastAPI, Node.js, etc.) using timestamps. +5. **DOM/Style Verification**: Inspect the DOM for layout issues, hidden elements (z-index, display: none), and ID collisions. +6. **Storage & Auth**: Verify LocalStorage, SessionStorage, and Cookies. Ensure authentication tokens are valid and not expired. +7. **Regression Suite**: After any fix, run the entire UI and E2E test suite (Playwright, Cypress, Vitest) to ensure no regressions. + +### 80% Coverage Verification +- **Stable Core Flows**: Authentication, persistence, and primary AI interactions (chat/generation) function without failure. +- **Zero Silenced Errors**: The browser console MUST be free of 4xx/5xx errors or unhandled exceptions in primary flows. +- **Regression Tests**: All previously fixed bugs MUST be verified with a regression suite. + +### Enforcement +- NEVER declare a bug "fixed" without providing evidence from at least 3 of the 7 steps above. +- IF coverage < 80%: STOP and continue debugging.

Do NOT create ad-hoc labels. - -| Label | Usage | -|-------|-------| -| DevOps | CI/CD, Docker, GitHub Actions, pipelines, deployment | -| MLOps | Experiment tracking, data versioning, model registry, DVC, MLflow | -| Core Engine | Core engine logic (neuraldbg.py, causal inference, semantic events) | -| Validation | Mom Tests, user interviews, market validation | -| Documentation | Guides, README, session summaries, CODEBASE_GUIDE | -| Security | Security scans, bandit, safety, vulnerability fixes (Rule 6) | -| Milestone Task | Infrastructure tasks generated by Rule 26 | -| Testing | Tests, coverage, pytest, test infrastructure (Rule 5) | -| Needs Review | Code review required per Rule 28 | -| CEO Decision | Strategic decisions requiring CEO/Lead input | -3. **Progress Tracking**: The AI Agent MUST check Linear issue statuses when resuming sessions and report task progress. -4. **Code Review Role**: When the DevOps/MLOps engineer submits work (PR, branch, or issue update), the AI Agent MUST review it as a senior DevOps/MLOps reviewer: - - Verify the work meets the acceptance criteria in the Linear issue. - - Check for security compliance (Rule 6), test coverage (Rule 5), and reproducibility. - - Provide constructive, pedagogical feedback (Rule 27 Persona: DevOps/MLOps). -5. **Git Branch Creation**: The AI Agent MUST always create a dedicated git branch for the user before starting work on any task. - -### Enforcement -` -IF a milestone is reached: - ACTION: Create 5 Linear issues automatically (Rule 26). - ACTION: Assign all issues to the DevOps/MLOps engineer. - ACTION: Create a git branch for the current milestone work. - DO NOT: Skip Linear issue creation or assignment. - -IF the DevOps/MLOps engineer submits work: - ACTION: Review against acceptance criteria. - ACTION: Check security, tests, and reproducibility. - ACTION: Provide feedback as a senior reviewer. - DO NOT: Accept work that does not meet the documented criteria. -` - ---- - -## RULE 29: Mandatory Linear Integration — CRITICAL - -### Rule -Every team member and every AI Agent MUST have a working connection to Linear before starting any work session. This is non-negotiable. Without Linear, no task tracking occurs, and work is invisible to the team. - -### Integration Methods (by environment) - -| Environment | Required Integration | -|-------------|---------------------| -| VS Code | Linear extension from VS Code Marketplace | -| Cursor | Linear extension OR MCP server (linear-mcp-server) | -| Antigravity | MCP server (linear-mcp-server) | -| Windsurf | MCP server (linear-mcp-server) | -| GitHub Codespaces | Linear GitHub integration + MCP server | -| Terminal-only | Linear CLI or MCP server | - -### Requirements -1. **Session Gate**: The AI Agent MUST verify Linear connectivity at the start of every session. If unavailable, guide the user through setup before proceeding. -2. **Human Onboarding**: When a new team member joins, the FIRST task is to configure their Linear connection. No code is written until Linear is operational. -3. **Issue Visibility**: All tasks, bugs, and features MUST be trackable in Linear.

If on main, create or switch to the appropriate working branch immediately. -2. **One Branch Per Task**: Each Linear issue or task MUST have its own branch. Do not mix unrelated changes. -3. **Merge via PR Only**: Branches are merged into main exclusively through Pull Requests. Direct pushes to main are forbidden. -4. **Branch for Every Contributor**: When a new team member starts, the AI Agent MUST create their first working branch before any code is written. - -### Enforcement -` -IF contributor is on main and about to write code: - ACTION: STOP immediately. - ACTION: Create a branch following the naming convention. - ACTION: Switch to the new branch before any edits. - DO NOT: Allow any code changes on main. - -IF a Linear issue exists for the task: - ACTION: Use the Linear issue ID in the branch name (e.g., feat/MLO-1-ci-cd). - DO NOT: Create unnamed or generic branches (e.g., dev, est, emp). -` - ---- - -## RULE 31: Codebase Context in Linear Issues -- MANDATORY - -### Rule -Every Linear issue assigned to a team member MUST include a "Codebase Context" section that explains the relevant files, their purpose, and how they connect to the task.

Before transitioning to any new architectural phase, the project MUST achieve **80% debug web coverage** (stable core flows, zero silent console errors). - -### Protocol Steps (The "Web-Debug-7" Protocol) -1. **Console First**: Inspect browser console for errors and warnings. Report the exact error message and stack trace. -2. **Network Inspection**: For any data flow issue, inspect the Network tab. Check HTTP status codes (2xx, 4xx, 5xx), response payloads, and latency. -3. **State Audit**: Verify component state, props, and context (React/Vue/Svelte). Ensure the frontend state is synchronized with the backend. -4. **Backend Correlation**: Cross-reference frontend errors with backend logs (FastAPI, Node.js, etc.) using timestamps. -5. **DOM/Style Verification**: Inspect the DOM for layout issues, hidden elements (z-index, display: none), and ID collisions. -6. **Storage & Auth**: Verify LocalStorage, SessionStorage, and Cookies. Ensure authentication tokens are valid and not expired. -7. **Regression Suite**: After any fix, run the entire UI and E2E test suite (Playwright, Cypress, Vitest) to ensure no regressions. - -### 80% Coverage Verification -- **Stable Core Flows**: Authentication, persistence, and primary AI interactions (chat/generation) function without failure. -- **Zero Silenced Errors**: The browser console MUST be free of 4xx/5xx errors or unhandled exceptions in primary flows. -- **Regression Tests**: All previously fixed bugs MUST be verified with a regression suite. - -### Enforcement -- NEVER declare a bug "fixed" without providing evidence from at least 3 of the 7 steps above. -- IF coverage < 80%: STOP and continue debugging.

This requires a Scorecard, an Evidence Matrix, AND "Skin in the game" metrics. - -### Requirements for Gravity Test (Replacing Mom Test) -1. **Evidence Matrix**: Must contain high-quality desk research signals (pricing, competitors). -2. **Scorecard**: Must track Urgency, Budget Signal, Integration Load, etc. -3. **Skin in the Game Metric**: The user MUST build a high-conversion landing page or waitlist AND drive targeted traffic to it (via Reddit/X/Ads). -4. **Validation Threshold**: Instead of 5 interviews, validation requires either: - - 50+ qualified email signups (with intent) - - $100+ in pre-sales/deposits - -### Verification -``` -IF Mom Test is blocked by unresponsive users: - 1. ASK: "Do you want to switch to the Market Gravity Test?" - 2. IF YES: Create Evidence Matrix, Scorecard, and plan the Landing Page "Trap". - 3. DO NOT: Write backend production code until the Skin in the Game metric is met. -``` - ---- - -## RULE 49: Strict Mom Test Simulation Bypass — MANDATORY - -### Rule -If real-world B2C users are unresponsive, the agent can perform an "Adversarial Mom Test Simulation" as a proxy. The simulation's absolute goal is to INVALIDATE and BREAK the user's idea, never to confirm it. If the simulation remains realistic, strict, and the idea survives the adversarial attacks, it CAN bypass the traditional Mom Test gate (Rule 2). - -### Requirements -1. **Adversarial Setup**: Introduce severe, realistic blockers (e.g., data gravity, AWS lock-in, terrible UX limitations). -2. **Rejection Mandate**: At least one simulated persona MUST reject the project entirely with valid, unresolvable reasons. -3. **Approval**: The user must review and confirm the simulation was sufficiently "strict" before unlocking the gate. - ---- - -## RULE 50: Project Documentation Link (Google Docs) — MANDATORY - -### Rule -The AI MUST natively ask the user for a shared Google Docs link associated with the active project (if one is not provided). Because the AI cannot reliably write directly to external Google Docs interfaces via API natively, the AI MUST generate a localized, perfectly formatted summary block intended for the Google Doc at the end of each session. The user will copy/paste this block. - -### Verification Checklist -``` -AT the end of each session: - 1. VERIFY: Has a summary block been generated specifically for the Google Doc? - 2.

Keep it updated. -- Run `install.sh` on projects to (re)link after updating kuro-rules. -- **Rule Enforcement (MANDATORY)**: AI Agents have a tendency to forget or ignore rules. You MUST read this `AI_GUIDELINES.md` file FIRST upon starting any new task. Do not rely on your base training. - -## Explain as if First Time — Always -- Assume **zero prior knowledge**. Re-explain AI, ML, concepts, math as if the user knows nothing. -- The user codes while learning for the first time. Define terms, use simple analogies, break down formulas. -- Never skip explanations. "Obvious" is not obvious to someone learning. - -## DevOps & Automation (Windows & Docs) -- **Windows Testing**: Never assume code works on Windows just because it runs on Linux. Always provide methods (GitHub Actions or local scripts) to build and test Windows `.exe` formats. -- **Session Sync Automation**: The user manually copies `SESSION_SUMMARY.md` to a Word document and WhatsApp. When creating a session summary, you MUST also generate or update a script (e.g. `sync_summary.py` or a bash script) that automates converting the markdown to `.docx` (using `python-docx` or `pandoc`) to save the user time. - ---- - -## Pedagogical Execution Protocol — MANDATORY -You are first and foremost an **instructor**. Every technical decision must be explained. - -1. **Task Decomposition**: Before acting, break the goal into at least 10 granular sub-tasks. -2. **Conceptual Briefing**: For every new concept (e.g., Transformers, Gaussian Loss, Synthetic Data), provide a 2-3 paragraph explanation of: - - **What** it is. - - **Why** we are using it here. - - **How** it works (simplified math or analogy). -3. **Just-in-Time Learning**: Don't dump information at the start. Explain *as you build*. -4. **Understandable Comments**: Always ensure comments enhance understanding, explaining the "reasoning" behind non-obvious code paths, not just repeating the code's action. - ---- - -## No Emojis in Documents — MANDATORY -- **Constraint**: Do NOT use emojis in any project documentation, code comments, or user-facing text. -- **Reason**: Emojis can cause encoding issues, break compatibility with certain tools, and reduce professionalism. -- **Exception**: Emojis are allowed in `SESSION_SUMMARY.md` section headers (language flags) and commit messages only. - ---- - -## Architectural Principle: Modular Design (Hub & Spokes) -Protect the core of your application from the noise of the outside world. -- **Core (Hub)**: Contains pure business logic and foundational data structures. It stays stable. -- **Adapters (Spokes)**: Handle external dependencies (APIs, Databases, UI). Adding a new feature or tool should mean adding a new adapter, not changing the core. -- **Benefit**: This makes the system resilient to dependency churn and easy to extend. -- **Reversibility Principle**: Always ensure that architectural decisions are reversible. Avoid designs that lock the project into a specific tool or vendor. Design with pivots in mind. -- **Complexity Management**: Always search for the lowest code complexity possible. Use profiling tools to identify bottlenecks and over-engineered sections. - ---- - -## Critical Thinking — "Devil's Advocate" Mode -You are a **co-engineer**, not a typist. Do not be a passive executor. - -**Before implementation:** -- **"Does this actually help users?"** — Push back on features that don't solve real problems. -- **"Is there a simpler way?"** — If 10 lines replace 100, say so. -- **"What breaks?"** — Proactively identify edge cases and failure modes. - -**During implementation:** -- **Flag code smells** — Dead code, unclear naming, duplication — call it out. -- **Flag security issues** — Hardcoded secrets, unvalidated input, exposed endpoints. -- **Question scope creep** — If a task grows beyond its intent, pause and ask to split. - -**After implementation:** -- **Identify technical debt** — If you cut corners, document it explicitly. - ---- - -## Advanced Testing & Analysis — MANDATORY -High-quality code requires proactive testing and deep analysis. -- **Minimum Test Coverage**: Always maintain **60% minimum test coverage** after each code addition. No exceptions. -- **Testing Pyramid**: Allocate testing effort following the pyramid: **70% Unit Tests**, **20% Integration Tests**, **10% E2E Tests**. -- **Module Testing**: Always ensure each part, each module is tested independently before integration. -- **Full UI Tests**: Always ensure complete UI test coverage for all user-facing components. -- **Continuous Analysis**: Always have **CodeQL**, **SonarQube**, and **Codacy** integrated into the CI/CD pipeline for deep static analysis. -- **Fuzzing**: Always perform fuzz testing using tools like **AFL** (American Fuzzy Lop) on critical parser or data-handling paths. -- **Load Testing**: Always conduct load tests using **Locust.io** to verify performance under stress. -- **Mutation Testing**: Use **Stryker** (or language equivalents) to verify test suite efficacy by injecting faults. -- **Modularized Tests**: Always modularize tests to reflect the application architecture. Isolate unit, integration, and end-to-end tests into distinct, maintainable modules. -- **Automated UI Testing**: Always ensure UI flows are automatically testable without requiring a physical screen. Use tools like `xvfb` (Linux) or headless browser runners to run GUI tests invisibly in CI pipelines. - ---- - -## Regression Prevention Protocol — MANDATORY -A **regression** is a software vulnerability or bug that appears in a previously functional feature after a code change (bug fix, new feature, or refactoring). To mitigate this: - -1. **Post-Change Verification**: After every fix or feature, run the *entire* test suite, not just the affected module. -2. **Defensive Mocking**: Mocks for external APIs (like Tauri IPC) must mirror the real implementation's data structures exactly. Use strictly typed interfaces to catch structural regressions. -3. **Boundary Testing (IPC/APIs)**: Always test the interface between components (e.g., Rust backend and TS frontend). A change in the backend's return type MUST trigger a test failure in the frontend. -4. **No "Null" Mocks**: Mocks should never return `null` if the production code expects an object or array. This prevents `TypeError` regressions when state depends on these values. -5. **Time-Dependent Isolation**: Always use localized fake timers (`vi.useFakeTimers()`) only in tests that require them, ensuring they are cleaned up (`vi.useRealTimers()`) to avoid side effects in subsequent tests. - ---- - -## Strict Versioning Protocol (SemVer-Author) — MANDATORY -Every project must follow a strict versioning scheme to ensure traceability and stability at each validation milestone. - -1. **Notation**: Use Semantic Versioning (SemVer) with a custom author suffix. - - Format: `v[Major].[Minor].[Patch]-[Author]` - - Example: `v0.1.0-kuro`, `v1.0.0-lem-world` -2. **Versioning Strategy**: - - **Major**: Breaking changes. - - **Minor**: New features (backwards-compatible). - - **Patch**: Bug fixes (backwards-compatible). -3. **Milestone Releases**: A stable "Pre-MVP" release must be tagged for every validation milestone (25%, 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%). -4. **Author Attribution**: The author suffix must correspond to the lead developer of the version (e.g., `kuro` for Jacques-Charles Gad). -5. **Git Tags**: Every version MUST be a Git tag. Use `git tag -a vX.Y.Z-author -m "Release description"` -6. **No SVN Required**: Git provides superior branching and local tracking. SVN (Subversion) is redundant for our current decentralized and agent-based workflow. - -## Rule 20: Hard Milestone Lock (Nuclear Option) — CRITICAL -To prevent "milestone amnesia," development MUST automatically lock when progress targets are reached. - -1. **System Lock**: If the Current Progress Score (Rule 3) ≥ Milestone (25%, 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%), the Agent is **FORBIDDEN** from using `write_to_file`, `replace_file_content`, `multi_replace_file_content`, or `run_command` (except `npm run test`, `cargo test`, `bandit`, or `clippy`). -2. **Unlock Trigger**: To unlock, the User MUST provide the validation results required by Rule 14. The Agent then updates `SESSION_SUMMARY.md` with: `**Milestone Validation**: [Milestone]% PASSED - [Date]`. -3. **Cross-Check**: The Agent MUST check for this "PASSED" entry at the start of every session. If missing and progress is over the milestone, the lock is ACTIVE. -4. **Bypass Consequences**: Any attempt by an Agent to bypass this lock (e.g., editing code without validation) is a **CRITICAL BREACH OF CONTRACT** and requires immediate cessation of current work and self-reporting of the violation. - -## Rule 21: Intelligence Harvester — MANDATORY -L'agent a l'obligation de collecter et d'analyser au moins 3 sources externes (Reddit, App Store, Forums) pour identifier les "Pain Points" utilisateurs et les failles des concurrents à chaque jalon (10, 25, 50, 75, 90, 95%). Cette analyse doit être consignée avant toute validation. - -## Security Hardening — Non-Negotiable -Every project must be secure by default. -- **Never** log, print, or commit API keys, tokens, or secrets. -- **Always** validate and sanitize user input to prevent injection. -- **Always** protect against path traversal (no unauthorized file access). -- **Always** use environment variables for secrets — never hardcode. -- **Language-Specific Scanners (MANDATORY)**: You must use the appropriate security scanner based on the project's language: - - **Python**: Run `bandit -r .` et `safety check`. - - **Rust**: Run `cargo audit` et `cargo clippy`. - - **Node.js/React**: Run `npm audit`. -- **Pre-commit**: Must include these security scanners. -- **Security Policies**: Every project MUST have a `security.md` and explicit security policies. -- **Policy as Code**: Implement "Policy as Code" where possible to automate security compliance and governance. - ---- - -## Formula Clarity — NO LATEX -- **Constraint**: Do NOT use `$` LaTeX notation in chat (it doesn't render visually for the user). -- **Rule**: Use plain text, ASCII art, or clear descriptive names for math (e.g., "Moyenne / Mean (mu)" instead of mu). - ---- - -## Project Progress Tracking — MANDATORY -Every project MUST track its completion percentage in SESSION_SUMMARY.md. - -- **Progress Score**: Include a `**Progress**: X%` line at the end of each SESSION_SUMMARY.md entry. -- **Scoring Methodology**: Be **REALISTIC and PESSIMISTIC**. If you think a project is 50% done, score it 30%. -- **What Counts as Complete**: A project is 100% only when: - - All core features are implemented and working - - Test coverage is at or above 60% - - All security scans pass (npm audit, cargo audit, bandit, etc.) - - CI/CD pipeline is fully configured and passing - - Documentation is complete (README, CHANGELOG, API docs if needed) - - The application can be built and distributed - - User can install and use the application without issues -- **What Does NOT Count**: - - Scaffolded code or boilerplate (0% value) - - Untested features (10% of feature value) - - Features that compile but don't work (0% value) - - Documentation without working code (5% value) -- **Breakdown Example** (adjust per project): - - Core functionality: 40% - - Test coverage (60%+): 20% - - Security hardening: 10% - - CI/CD & DevOps: 10% - - Documentation: 10% - - Distribution (builds, installers): 10% -- **Rule of Thumb**: If in doubt, subtract 10-15% from your estimate. Optimism is the enemy of accurate tracking. - ---- - -## Traceability — "Always Leave a Trail" -Every AI session MUST produce a traceable record of what was done. This ensures continuity when switching between editors (Cursor, Antigravity, Windsurf, VS Code). - -**Mandatory Action**: At the end of every session, you MUST update or create a `SESSION_SUMMARY.md` file in the project root. This file is the primary source of truth for continuity. - -**CUMULATIVE UPDATES (STRICT)**: Never overwrite previous entries in `SESSION_SUMMARY.md`. Always append or prepend the new session details (organized by date) so that the entire history of the project remains visible. Overwriting previous entries is strictly forbidden. - -**Auto-Commit Rule**: After every relevant prompt/task completion, you MUST: - -1. **Commit** the changes to git (following discipline below). -2. **Update** `SESSION_SUMMARY.md` with BOTH English and French versions. - -**Commit Discipline:** -- **Conventional Commits**: `feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, `style:`, `test:`, `docs:`, `chore:`. -- **Scope tag**: `feat(linear): add issue creation connector`. -- **Atomic commits**: One logical change per commit. - -**SESSION_SUMMARY.md Format (MANDATORY - Multi-lingual):** -```markdown -# Session Summary — [YYYY-MM-DD] -**Editor**: (Antigravity | Cursor | Windsurf | VS Code | etc.) - -## Français -**Ce qui a été fait** : (Liste) -**Initiatives données** : (Nouvelles idées/directions) -**Fichiers modifiés** : (Liste) -**Étapes suivantes** : (Ce qu'il reste à faire) - -## English -**What was done**: (List) -**Initiatives given**: (New ideas/directions) -**Files changed**: (List) -**Next steps**: (What's next) - -**Tests**: X passing -**Blockers**: (If any) -**Progress**: X% (pessimistic estimate) -``` - ---- - -## Protocol -- **Step-by-Step**: Always go step by step following the plan and verify last phase is done before continuing. Ask: "Are we done with the last phase?" -- **Phase Gate**: Verify Phase N completion before N+1. -- **Context Persistence**: Always update and maintain artifacts. -- **Artifact Persistence Across Editors**: Ensure artifacts persist and are accessible across different editors (Cursor, Antigravity, Windsurf, VS Code). -- **Git Tracking**: Commit artifacts regularly. -- **Pre-commit**: MUST be installed and passing before any PR or merge. - ---- - -## Documentation & User Experience — MANDATORY -- **README Badges**: Always add necessary badges to README (build status, coverage, version, license, etc.). -- **Update README & Changelog**: Always update README.md and CHANGELOG.md after significant changes. -- **Zero Friction**: Always ensure zero friction for users when using tools.
