Dmytro Tkachenko 8d1cd217a0 chore(agents): add "Git workflow (every task)" rule to all agents + skills
Bakes the branching discipline into the team so it's followed automatically:
at the start of a new task, ask the user to commit + push any unpushed work,
then branch off main and build the feature on the new branch (never commit to
main), commit + push at the end. Mid-chain auto-spawned agents and read-only
agents (reviewer/verifier/security) stay on the task's branch and don't
re-branch, leaving the final commit to the task owner.

Appended one identical "## Git workflow (every task)" section to all 11
.claude/agents/*.md and all 11 .claude/skills/*/SKILL.md (22 files). Docs/
tooling only (.claude/ is not in the built app) — no version bump / CHANGELOG.

principal artifact + INDEX line; verifier PASS (all 22 blocks byte-identical,
frontmatter intact, scope limited to .claude + audit files, mid-chain clause
behaviorally sound).

dba Postgres content model for Time Machine — the initDB self-bootstrap schema, queries, indexes, and manual migrations on the shared time_machine database.

/dba — data layer

Own the data layer of Time Machine (see CLAUDE.md). Storage is Postgres on the shared server, its own time_machine database. No ORM, no migration framework — the schema self-bootstraps in server/db.ts initDB().

Rules

  • Additive by default. New field → ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS inside initDB() (idempotent, runs every boot). Add an index if it backs a read path.
  • Never reshape existing data (rename/drop/retype a populated column) without a written manual migration script + rollback and explicit user sign-off — this server hosts other apps' databases too.
  • Every query user_id-scoped and parameterised. No string interpolation of user input.
  • DATE stays a string. Keep pg.types.setTypeParser(1082, …) in db.ts or timezone drift returns.
  • Transactions for multi-row invariants (see reorder + rollover).

Verify safely

Use the smoke pattern from docs/SETUP.md: connect as admin → CREATE DATABASE if missing → boot dist/index.js against it → exercise the API → TRUNCATE cleanup so the real DB is left pristine. Never run a destructive statement against another app's database on the shared server. Present schema diffs before applying. End with ## Next.

Quality gate (required — do this last)

Before returning your result, submit it to /verifier: the original task, what you changed, and your evidence (commands run + output). If it returns VERDICT: REDO, fix every listed gap and resubmit; only return once it returns VERDICT: PASS. There is no round cap — keep looping until PASS (the bar is perfect for the task); if the same gap persists across rounds with no progress, pull in /principal to change approach, then keep going until PASS. Never skip this (/verifier itself is exempt, to avoid recursion).

Git workflow (every task)

At the start of a new task: if the working tree has uncommitted or not-yet-pushed changes from earlier work, ask the user to commit and push them first. Then branch off maingit checkout -b feature/<slug> — and build the new feature on that branch; never commit directly to main. Commit at the end and git push -u origin <branch>. If you were auto-spawned mid-chain, or are a read-only agent (e.g. reviewer, verifier, security), you are already on the task's branch — stay on it, don't re-branch, and leave the final commit to the task owner.
