A reference skill on the internal design of gh-aw for contributors working on its compiler.
What the skill teaches
A reference skill on the internal design of gh-aw for contributors working on its compiler. It explains the validation architecture, session graders that compute results without side effects, how safe-output messages are processed, schema validation, YAML compatibility rules and a guardrail around MCP logs. An agent loads it before changing those parts of the gh-aw codebase, so that new code follows the existing design instead of adding a parallel mechanism.
Capabilities
- Explain gh-aw's validation architecture
- Work on session graders and safe-output messages
- Keep YAML and schema handling compatible
- Apply the MCP logs guardrail
Install
The project doesn't document install steps that we could confirm. See the project's own instructions
