Meta-skill for choosing which workflow skill fits the task at hand, plus always-on habits: surface assumptions, stop on confusion, push back, keep it simple and stay in scope.

What it does
Agent Instructions Governance is an agent skill from Peiiii/nextclaw. 当确定要修改 AGENTS.md、commands、项目 AI 规则、skill/references、治理脚本，或明确优化 AI 驱动开发体系时使用；普通规则讨论和一次性纠偏不提前触发。
Its SKILL.md is about 490 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `references/context-token-governance.md`, `references/development-system-evolution.md` and `references/intent-macros.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files. The repository describes itself as: A human-centered long-term AI partner—not a task-centered assistant. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Agent instruction files
Example prompts
- “/agent-instructions-governance”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- AGENTS.md：每轮必须知道的安全与高层边界。
- .agents/skills/*/SKILL.md：需要参与初始发现的工作流、阶段或独立任务入口。
- skill references/：仅由一个入口拥有、在子场景成立时读取的合同。
- .agents/wiki/skills///SKILL.md：按领域分组、被上层显式加载的完整下级 Skill；不参与初始发现。
- .agents/wiki/knowledge：事实、背景、案例与权威来源索引；不拥有流程或授权。
- scripts/ / tests：高信号、低误报、可确定执行的检查。
- docs/：人类设计、计划和历史；除非入口明确链接，不承担自动硬规则。
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4d9d500. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Agent Instructions Governance loads about 485 tokens when it runs, and up to ~4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 105 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

AI 指令系统治理
目标
保持规则可靠、单一 owner、渐进加载和低 token 成本。修改前先对齐当前项目目标、检查工作区和规则体积，并识别真正根因是缺失、重复、过宽、过长、过期还是放错层。外部写入授权仍以用户和当前项目的明确合同为准。
分层
AGENTS.md：每轮必须知道的安全与高层边界。.agents/skills/*/SKILL.md：需要参与初始发现的工作流、阶段或独立任务入口。- skill
references/：仅由一个入口拥有、在子场景成立时读取的合同。 .agents/wiki/skills/<group>/<skill>/SKILL.md：按领域分组、被上层显式加载的完整下级 Skill；不参与初始发现。.agents/wiki/knowledge：事实、背景、案例与权威来源索引；不拥有流程或授权。scripts// tests：高信号、低误报、可确定执行的检查。docs/：人类设计、计划和历史；除非入口明确链接，不承担自动硬规则。
每次触发 skill 都必需的内容保留在入口；单 owner 条件内容进 references；两个以上真实入口共享同一独立合同、或能力需要保留可复用 Skill 身份时进入分组 Wiki Skill。不要用 Wiki 隐藏默认必读合同，也不要把只被一个入口使用的材料升级为共享库。
修改顺序
- 区分个案、重复模式和稳定规则；沉淀层级不得高于证据。找 owner 和相邻规则，优先删除、合并、收窄或移动。
- 每个稳定工作域只有一个 workflow root；普通开发由唯一 lifecycle owner 管理。阶段不直接调用其它阶段或回链，独立 skill 不回链上游。
- description 只描述一个稳定意图，不堆“实现/方案/深入/最佳实践”等泛词抢占触发。
- 一个判断分支最多要求一个直接下游；阶段 Skill、下级 Wiki Skill 与知识都只在当前节点加载。
- 规则影响脚本或命令时同步更新；脚本变化也同步 owning 文本。
- 核心阶段使用统一的
development-<stage>命名；产品、仓库命令或发布合同的 Skill 保留项目自己的命名空间。 - 大型重构写设计并在同批迭代记录中留痕，小措辞不建日志。
条件方法
- 新增、修订、合并或退役意图宏时，读取意图宏维护；调用只读命中定义，不加载维护合同。
- 用户明确要求优化 AI 驱动开发体系，或有效反馈暴露重复、系统性、高影响机制缺口时，读取开发体系演进闭环。
- 修改、提升、下沉、合并或删除规则资产，或者要标记/复核模型能力补丁时，读取规则资产生命周期。
- 任务明确涉及常驻上下文膨胀、渐进加载、重复读取或 Token 成本时，读取上下文与 Token 治理。
- 新增、删除、合并、分组或下沉 Skill，或改变 workflow/阶段/独立入口拓扑时，读取Skill 拓扑与创建门。
普通局部措辞修正不机械加载多份参考；每次只读取当前判断确实需要的方法，不批量预读。
检查
完成前运行项目已有的 Skill 渐进加载与链接检查；修改本框架上游时运行 npm run check，确认 manifest、frontmatter、相对链接和项目身份边界。再按改动风险运行项目治理检查。纯指令 Markdown 不运行产品 build/tsc/冒烟。
最终报告 AGENTS、skill 数、description、discovery 字符和入口体积变化，说明 Wiki、command/script/baseline 是否适用，以及设计/迭代落点。
