SDD Init Skill
Initialize Spec-Driven Development (SDD) in the current project. Detects tech stack, conventions, architecture patterns, and bootstraps all persistence backends (Constitution + Knowledge Graph).
Provides final code cleanup after task review approval. Removes debug logs, temporary comments, dead code, optimizes imports, and improves readability. Use when asked to clean up code, polish, finalize, tidy up, remove technical debt, or prepare code for completion after review. Not for refactoring logic or fixing bugs—focused solely on cosmetic and hygiene cleanup.
