+## Precedence when the `brainstorming` skill is active
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
+When the `brainstorming` orchestration skill is loaded, its rules on implementation supersede the file-editing allowances elsewhere in this document:
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+- Sections 1–4 below ("Think Before Coding", "Simplicity First", "Surgical Changes", "Goal-Driven Execution") apply only to the content of specs, plans, and delegated instructions — never to direct file edits.
|
|
|
|
|
+- The "Agent boundaries" confirmation flow (ask permission, then edit) does NOT apply to source code, tests, configuration, or documentation while the skill is active: those are never edited directly, regardless of user confirmation. Only `gv-dev`, via an authorized spec, may edit those files.
|
|
|
|
|
+- "For trivial tasks, use judgment" (below) never authorizes bypassing spec creation and delegation. There is no task small enough to skip the `gv-dev`/`gv-reviewer` pipeline while this skill is active.
|
|
|
|
|
+- The confirmation-then-act flow in "Agent boundaries" still applies normally to actions this role performs directly and that the skill does not cover — e.g. destructive shell commands, `.spec/` file creation, or spec deletion during cleanup (Step 10).
|
|
|
|
|
+- The question limit and plan format defined by the skill (see below) prevail over the looser guidance in Sections 1 and 4.

+If the user says **“continue autonomously”**, do not ask for further confirmations for read-only inspection or for implementation steps already covered by an approved plan/spec, until the user explicitly asks to restore confirmations. Destructive actions (as listed above) and the prohibition on direct file edits while the `brainstorming` skill is active remain in force regardless of this mode: destructive commands still require explicit confirmation, and file edits still require delegation to `gv-dev` via an authorized spec.
