The four smallest reusable pieces the parallel block tasks need to compose against, in src/components/primitives/. Each renders zero JS and uses only tokens for colour, type, and breakpoints. Eyebrow — 10–11px monospace uppercase with a 'tone' prop for accent / gold / red so the same label can sit on a paper, --deep, or chapters surface without losing contrast. The guide surface uses 'accent', the .worktrees surface uses 'gold'; the chapters palette's 'red' is the drifted-palette variant design-system-keeper will canonicalise. Rule — the gold-top-border section divider. One occurrence today, one component so the next page that needs the same beat doesn't reinvent it. Body slot expects <strong> for the clamp(24px, 3.3vw, 42px) emphasis. Callout — gold-background emphasis block. 'label' variant (default) matches .callout (150px label + body); 'split' variant matches the full-guide .thesis (2 equal columns, aside slot for the signal visualisation). Both share the gold bg + Eyebrow label + strong body. CodeBlock — <pre> on --ink with gold text. The canonical 'code on dark' surface used across the guide. 'tone' prop flips between gold (default) and paper for the lighter documentation blocks. All four fold in the existing 800px breakpoint that .rule and .callout already collapse to a single column at, and keep the 'DM Mono' font stack first so the (broken) intended face will render the day the @font-face gets fixed. Did not touch: tokens.css (design-system-keeper), verify.mjs (verification-engineer), astro.config.mjs (astro-architect), any page, or any existing CSS file.
AI For Dummies
A lightweight, presentation-style field guide to AI-assisted engineering.
It explains how to combine a strong planning/review model with faster workers,
reusable skills, subagent handoffs, Git worktrees, and explicit verification. An
interactive field kit compares common behavior skills such as ponytail-lite,
caveman, unlazy, research, debugging, and review. The skill-forge workflow
covers discovery, triggers, package anatomy, progressive instructions,
structural validation, and behavioral iteration. The hands-on lab provides a
tiny starter project and copy-ready baseline and skill-enabled prompts for a
short side-by-side exercise. An interactive model gearbox separates capability
tier from reasoning effort across OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini, and every featured
skill links to a pinned source with an approval-first installation prompt.

Publishing
The Gitea instance has a Pages Server configured to publish a repository’s
pages branch under pages.marcospaulo.dev.br. The intended site address is:
https://netcracker.pages.marcospaulo.dev.br/ai-for-dummies/
If the URL is not available yet, verify that the pages branch exists and that
the repository’s pages branch exists. Gitea itself does not provide a built-in
Pages server; this setup uses the instance’s separate Pages Server and Actions
deployment path.
For the complete authoring, verification, publication, rollback, worktree, and skill workflow, see docs/operations-guide.md.
Reader voting on the skills-review desk
skills-review/ is static, so its "which draft would you ship?" vote widget
calls a separate stateful service — vote-service/, a small Go API on its own
pod, one vote per visitor enforced server-side by IP (a MAC address is never
visible to a server across the internet, so it cannot be used). See
vote-service/README.md for the API, the anti-abuse
design, and the build/push/deploy steps; skills-review/index.html sets
window.SKILLS_REVIEW_VOTE_API to point at it once deployed.
Research
See docs/references/README.md for official Claude, Codex, and Git documentation. The additional reading path bundles 12 verified articles and guides, including Medium and practitioner sources. See model routing for current provider controls and verified skill sources for commit-pinned provenance.
Rules and enforcement case study
Open /rules/ for a concise walkthrough grounded in the netcracker/interview
repository. It shows how AGENTS.md, project-local skills, machine-readable
repo ledgers, a UI contract ratchet, lint-staged, Husky, commitlint, specialist
verifier agents, and PR review reinforce one another. Every example links to its
source file in Gitea, and the page includes a copy-ready prompt for mapping the
same layers in another repository.
The implementation patterns are also packaged as project-local skills in
skills/. Use editorial-playbook when adding chapters or
sections, and rules-case-study when turning repository controls into a
source-linked teaching page.
