## Content

Dev Skeleton is a set of repository-orientation files, skills, and templates for LLM-assisted development. It helps an Agent find a project's purpose, boundaries, and sources of fact before reading the source required by a task.

## What it contains

    **SKELETON.md**
    Project purpose, durable boundaries, sources of fact, and bounded navigation.

    **REVIEW_SKELETON.md**
    Review priorities and explicit blocking conditions.

    **AGENTS.md**
    Repository constraints written for Agents.

    **Skills and templates**
    Entry points and templates for initialization, refresh, audit, structural maintenance, and review.

## How it is used

Skeletons keep durable judgment and bounded navigation. Code, configuration, tests, release artifacts, and maintained documentation remain the sources for implementation facts.

A repository can start from the supplied templates and refresh them when its purpose, boundaries, or truth sources change.

Dev Skeleton is distributed as a Codex plugin through the Glenzli Marketplace. The package includes orientation, review, audit, and structural-maintenance skills together with their conditional reference material.
