  • Coding principles (KISS, DRY)
  • Styling guidelines
  • i18n requirements
  • File length limits
  • Commit message format

3. Your Contribution History

  • Wake-lock investigation (May 14, 2026)

  • Blocked task (057)
  • Bug #441 tracking
  • All deliverables documented

4. Current Status

  • Active issues
  • Blockers
  • Available contribution areas
  • Priority levels

5. Quick Reference

How it Works

Automatic Activation

The skill automatically loads when you:

  • Mention "CodeNomad" in conversation
  • Work in /home/dark/Project/codenomad/
  • Reference wake-lock, tasks, or issues
  • Mention your fork or Issue #441

What it Provides

When loaded, the skill gives you:

  • ✅ Context from previous sessions
  • ✅ Project-specific guidelines
  • ✅ Status of your contributions
  • ✅ Links to relevant files
  • ✅ Quick reference commands
  • ✅ Reminders of best practices

Example Usage

Starting a new session:

You: "I want to continue working on CodeNomad"
Agent: [Loads skill automatically]
        "Welcome back! Last session you completed the wake-lock 
        investigation and discovered Issue #441. 
        
        Current status:
        - Issue #441 is open, awaiting upstream response
        - Tasks 055-056 are complete
        - Task 057 is blocked by the bug
        
        Available next steps:
        1. Work on Symbol Attachments (Task 023)
        2. Improve i18n translations
        3. Write unit tests
        4. Update documentation
        
        What would you like to work on?"

Resuming after reboot:

You: "Load CodeNomad skill"
Agent: [Loads skill]
        "CodeNomad contribution tracker loaded.
        
        Your fork: https://github.com/JDis03/CodeNomad
        Last commit: 35974fb (docs: session completion)
        Active issue: #441 (screen lock crash)
        
        Check NEXT-STEPS.md for post-reboot actions."
