Klimkit v0.1.6 - generic agent best practices
This release integrates generic agent engineering best practices into Klimkit's shared Codex harness without pasting a second template into AGENTS.md. The main guidance is now more explicit about stating assumptions, pushing back when simpler, stopping when confused, looping until verified, keeping changes surgical, avoiding extra features, using deterministic code paths, preserving project language, rejecting fake support, and failing loud when checks or live projection steps are unavailable.
The related subagents now enforce those ideas where they matter: checklister focuses on success criteria, scope boundaries, and prototype handling; code_explorer surfaces contradictory patterns; code_reviewer flags hacks, fake support, conflict-averaged designs, model-driven deterministic decisions, and implementation-coupled tests; debugger requires a credible feedback loop before speculation; test_writer prefers public-interface behavior tests and one vertical slice at a time; final_reviewer verifies skipped checks, projection/service failures, prototypes, and research-only work are reported honestly. harness-tuning now explicitly says external advice must be synthesized into the existing pack instead of pasted wholesale.
The task analysis also compares mattpocock/skills against Klimkit and records up to ten takeaways, including optional domain glossary/ADR conventions, stronger diagnose/TDD/prototype workflows, durable agent briefs, and skill registry hygiene.
