template-code-project

Project-scoped skill for the in-repo exemplar at projects/templates/template_code_project/. Load this when working inside the project.

When to Use

• Working inside the template_code_project exemplar — running scripts, editing source,

or regenerating outputs.

• Forking this exemplar as the starting scaffold for a new research project.
• Validating that the exemplar's contracts (thin-orchestrator, layer boundaries,

no-mocks testing) still hold after changes.

Quick Reference

bash
# From the repository root
uv run pytest projects/templates/template_code_project/tests --cov=projects/templates/template_code_project/src --cov-fail-under=90
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_02_analysis.py --project templates/template_code_project
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_03_render.py --project templates/template_code_project
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_04_validate.py --project templates/template_code_project
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_05_copy.py --project templates/template_code_project

Pitfalls

• Keep scripts thin. Business logic belongs in src/ or shared

infrastructure/, not in scripts/.

• No mocks. All tests must use real data, real files, and real

computation.

• Outputs are disposable. Never hand-edit output/ — regenerate from

source and config.

• Keep tracked benchmarks deterministic. Serialize reproducible inputs,

objective values, and checks; keep wall-clock timing as a runtime-only diagnostic.

• Run from the repo root. Commands assume the template monorepo root

as working directory unless the child AGENTS.md states otherwise.
