 # Dotfiles Configuration Notes
 ## Commit Directly to Main
 Commit directly to `main` in this repo. It reflects the current state of my machine, so feature branches don't make sense here. Do not create branches or open PRs for changes.
 ## Dotter Template Handling
 Dotter automatically treats files with `{{` as templates. For files that contain `{{` in their code (like Lua tables), disable templating by setting `type = "symbolic"` in `.dotter/global.toml`.

 # Personal Claude Code Instructions
 ## Do not modify my machine without permission
 **Never install software, packages, or tools on my machine without explicit permission** — no `brew install`, `npm install -g`, `pip install`, `apt`, downloading binaries, or anything that changes global system state. This is absolutely disallowed. If a task needs a tool I don't have, stop and ask first, or find a way that doesn't touch my machine (e.g. run it in Docker — if Docker is not available then ask me).
 ## Agents
 If work is parallel or cleanly scoped out, consider handing off to subagents to preserve context.
 Do **not** use fork subagents. Only separate agents with clear scope or a clear goal.
 ## Notifying me / sharing images via Discord
 The `discord-send` CLI is on my PATH. Use it whenever I ask you to notify me when something is done, or to show me an image or video — send it to my Discord and I'll see it there.

 When asked to respond to reviews in a PR, check the PR description and all comments. Check out the PR branch. Decide if any changes are required or not, make changes if needed, commit and push once done. Always push the PR branch if responding to a PR, do not push to a different branch. 
 ## Commits
 Commit often. It's better to commit things than to leave changes hanging for a long time. You don't have to commit after every change, but once you're done working just go ahead and commit. 
 ## Comments in code
 Only comment what is necessary to explain **why** the code is doing something. Do not write comments for **what** the code is doing, that should be obvious from the code itself.
 Do not write comments for anything obvious, anything that an expert can be expected to know, or anything already documented elsewhere.
 Comments are permanent part of the code! Only comment what should be permanently stored along with the code, moment to moment coding decisions, what old versions of the code were before refactors etc. do not belong in comments.
 ## Writing Style
 Following rules are for your writing. Follow these when responding to the user, when writing documentation and code comments, and when writing commit messages or PR descriptions.
@ -45,13 +28,11 @@ Following rules are for your writing. Follow these when responding to the user,
 - Do not use em-dashes. No "It's not X, it's Y". Avoid overusing intricate, underscore, highlight, showcase, journey to, step into. Do not use "You're absolutely right!".
 - Avoid sentence fragments for emphasis. Bad: "Not X. Not Y. Just Z."
 - Do use emphasis when necessary: "This is a destructive operation. All data will be lost. Should I proceed?"
 - Avoid flowery language like "no ceremony", "this is more than X", "you're right to poke it", "this is load bearing", "dissolves your original concern"
 Examples:
 - Bad: Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by a problem with the authentication middleware. I will investigate this problem now.
 - Bad: Not a bug. Not a feature. A fundamental design flaw.
 - Bad: It's worth noting that this approach has limitations.
 - Bad: Just implementation, no ceremony.
 - Good: Sure. Bug may be in auth middleware. I'll check.
 - Good: This is a design flaw.

 `depth="0"` (`role="requested"`) is the session you asked for. If that session
 was itself resumed from an earlier one via `/clear` → cc-compact, the script
 follows that lineage backwards and emits each older session at `depth="1"`, `2`,

 bounded. It walks up to `--max-depth` ancestors (default 10) and guards against
 cycles. Read the deeper blocks as fading background: the further back, the

 name: compact-file
 description: >
  Compress natural language memory files (CLAUDE.md, todos, preferences) into shortened format
  to save input tokens. Preserves all technical substance, code, URLs, and structure.
  Compressed version overwrites the original file. Human-readable backup saved as FILE.original.md.
  Trigger: /compact-file FILEPATH or "compact memory file"
 ---
 # Compact File
 ## Purpose
 Compress natural language files (CLAUDE.md, todos, preferences) into caveman-speak to reduce input tokens. Compressed version overwrites original. Human-readable backup saved as `<filename>.original.md`.
 ## Trigger
 `/compact-file <filepath>` or when user asks to compress a memory file.
 ## Process
 1. The compression scripts live in `scripts/` (adjacent to this SKILL.md). If the path is not immediately available, search for `scripts/__main__.py` next to this SKILL.md.
 2. From the directory containing this SKILL.md, run:
 python3 -m scripts <absolute_filepath>
 3. The CLI will:
 - detect file type (no tokens)
 - call Claude to compress
 - validate output (no tokens)
 - if errors: cherry-pick fix with Claude (targeted fixes only, no recompression)
 - retry up to 2 times
 - if still failing after 2 retries: report error to user, leave original file untouched
 4. Return result to user
 ## Compression Rules
 ### Remove
 - Articles: a, an, the
 - Filler: just, really, basically, actually, simply, essentially, generally
 - Pleasantries: "sure", "certainly", "of course", "happy to", "I'd recommend"
 - Hedging: "it might be worth", "you could consider", "it would be good to"
 - Redundant phrasing: "in order to" → "to", "make sure to" → "ensure", "the reason is because" → "because"
 - Connective fluff: "however", "furthermore", "additionally", "in addition"
 ### Preserve EXACTLY (never modify)
 - Code blocks (fenced ``` and indented)
 - Inline code (`backtick content`)
 - URLs and links (full URLs, markdown links)
 - File paths (`/src/components/...`, `./config.yaml`)
 - Commands (`npm install`, `git commit`, `docker build`)
 - Technical terms (library names, API names, protocols, algorithms)
 - Proper nouns (project names, people, companies)
 - Dates, version numbers, numeric values
 - Environment variables (`$HOME`, `NODE_ENV`)
 ### Preserve Structure
 - All markdown headings (keep exact heading text, compress body below)
 - Bullet point hierarchy (keep nesting level)
 - Numbered lists (keep numbering)
 - Tables (compress cell text, keep structure)
 - Frontmatter/YAML headers in markdown files
 ### Compress
 - Use short synonyms: "big" not "extensive", "fix" not "implement a solution for", "use" not "utilize"
 - Fragments OK: "Run tests before commit" not "You should always run tests before committing"
 - Drop "you should", "make sure to", "remember to" — just state the action
 - Merge redundant bullets that say the same thing differently
 - Keep one example where multiple examples show the same pattern
 CRITICAL RULE:
 Anything inside ``` ... ``` must be copied EXACTLY.
 Do not:
 - remove comments
 - remove spacing
 - reorder lines
 - shorten commands
 - simplify anything
 Inline code (`...`) must be preserved EXACTLY.
 Do not modify anything inside backticks.
 If file contains code blocks:
 - Treat code blocks as read-only regions
 - Only compress text outside them
 - Do not merge sections around code
 ## Pattern
 Original:
 > You should always make sure to run the test suite before pushing any changes to the main branch. This is important because it helps catch bugs early and prevents broken builds from being deployed to production.
 Compressed:
 > Run tests before push to main. Catch bugs early, prevent broken prod deploys.
 Original:
 > The application uses a microservices architecture with the following components. The API gateway handles all incoming requests and routes them to the appropriate service. The authentication service is responsible for managing user sessions and JWT tokens.
 Compressed:
 > Microservices architecture. API gateway route all requests to services. Auth service manage user sessions + JWT tokens.
 ## Boundaries
 - ONLY compress natural language files (.md, .txt, .typ, .typst, .tex, extensionless)
 - NEVER modify: .py, .js, .ts, .json, .yaml, .yml, .toml, .env, .lock, .css, .html, .xml, .sql, .sh
 - If file has mixed content (prose + code), compress ONLY the prose sections
 - If unsure whether something is code or prose, leave it unchanged
 - Original file is backed up as FILE.original.md before overwriting
 - Never compress FILE.original.md (skip it)

 name: sqlite
 description: Recommended SQLite defaults (PRAGMAs and STRICT tables). Use when setting up a new project that uses SQLite, or when adding new SQLite tables to an existing project.
 ---
 Apply these when starting a new SQLite project or adding tables. They are the sane defaults SQLite ships without.
 ## Connection PRAGMAs
 Run these on **every new connection** (except `journal_mode`, see below). They are per-connection state, not stored in the DB file. If your library has a "connection init" hook, put them there.
 ```sql
 PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL;      -- set once, persists in the DB file
 PRAGMA busy_timeout = 5000;     -- wait 5s on a locked DB instead of erroring
 PRAGMA synchronous = NORMAL;    -- safe to lower from FULL only under WAL
 PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;       -- SQLite ignores FK constraints unless you enable this
 ```
 ## Tables
 Create tables as `STRICT` so column types are enforced:
 ```sql
 CREATE TABLE user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL) STRICT;
 ```
 ## Gotchas
 - **`foreign_keys`, `busy_timeout`, `synchronous` reset per connection.** Missing them on any connection silently drops the behavior (e.g. FK constraints stop being enforced). Set them on connection open.
 - **`journal_mode = WAL` is different**: it persists in the DB file, so set it once. WAL needs the DB on **local disk** (breaks on network filesystems) and adds `-wal` and `-shm` sidecar files next to the DB.
 - **`synchronous = NORMAL` durability**: an OS crash or power loss can lose the last few committed transactions. The DB stays consistent (no corruption) — only the tail is lost. `NORMAL` is almost always the right choice; `FULL` is rarely needed. If you genuinely cannot afford to lose any committed write, you shouldn't be on SQLite at all — use a DB replicated across regions.
 - **STRICT allows only `INT`, `INTEGER`, `REAL`, `TEXT`, `BLOB`, `ANY`.** No `VARCHAR`, `DATETIME`, `BOOLEAN`, etc. Use `ANY` for a column that needs to hold mixed types.
