# Coding Assistant Understand repositories, plan and implement changes, diagnose failures, and review code with clear evidence. Package version: 0.1.0-beta.7. ## Overview Fourteen focused skills cover the repository lifecycle, from understanding existing behavior to implementation, maintenance, and handoff. Each workflow keeps its evidence, scope, and change authority explicit. ## What you can do - Trace behavior and turn a concrete objective into an actionable plan. - Implement requested changes or diagnose failures with focused verification. - Review code, reconcile documentation, and prepare useful continuation notes. ## Get started - [Codebase exploration](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/codebase-exploration/) — Understand repository structure or trace existing behavior. - [Repository change planning](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-change-planning/) — Plan a bounded change before implementation. - [Repository implementation](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-implementation/) — Carry out an authorized repository edit. - [Repository debugging](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-debugging/) — Diagnose a concrete failure; apply fixes only when requested. ## Requirements - Provide the repository, a bounded question or change, and relevant constraints. - Most skills can work in the parent if optional bundled agents are unavailable. - Script-backed analysis needs Node.js. - Planning and review establish evidence before separately authorized implementation; existing permission is preserved. ## Skills and supporting files - [Code review](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/code-review/) — Review a diff or named code surface for actionable defects and material risks. - [Codebase exploration](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/codebase-exploration/) — Understand where behavior lives and how data, configuration, and ownership connect across a repository. - [Coding goal guardrails](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/coding-goal-guardrails/) — Keep a multi-step coding goal bounded, observable, and careful with existing Git work. - [Coding goal progress report](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/report-coding-goal-progress/) — Turn an authoritative coding-goal snapshot into a clear status, milestone, or completion report. - [Coding handoff](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/coding-handoff/) — Prepare durable continuation notes or reviewer-facing context from known work and evidence. - [Phase implementation review](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/phase-implementation-review/) — Assess a completed phase or cumulative phased result against its accepted scope and completion criteria. - [Repository documentation reconciliation](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/reconcile-repository-docs/) — Bring repository documentation into agreement with current code, commands, structure, and release state. - [Refactor planning](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/refactor-planning/) — Plan a structural change or compatibility migration while preserving the behavior consumers depend on. - [Repository change planning](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-change-planning/) — Build a bounded implementation plan from the repository's current behavior and the intended outcome. - [Repository debugging](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-debugging/) — Find the cause of a concrete failure or unexpected behavior, then make a repair when requested. - [Repository implementation](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/repository-implementation/) — Implement a bounded repository change and verify the behavior it affects. - [Source file token estimation](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/source-file-token-estimation/) — Estimate the source footprint of large files and compare hypothetical splits before deciding whether restructuring is worthwhile. - [Test suite health](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/test-suite-health/) — Assess the cost, stability, overlap, and maintainability of an existing test suite. - [Verification planning](/skills/faye-coding-assistant/verification-planning/) — Choose focused checks that demonstrate the changed behavior and expose meaningful regression risks. - [Read-only coding analyst](/agents/faye-coding-assistant/faye-coding-analyst/) — Defines a bounded analysis role for exploration, diagnosis, review, planning, suite assessment, and handoff. - [Implementation assistant](/agents/faye-coding-assistant/faye-coding-assistant/) — Defines a write-capable role for explicitly authorized, bounded implementation or repair. - [Independent goal reviewer](/agents/faye-coding-assistant/faye-goal-fresh-review/) — Defines a read-only reviewer for material risks or conflicting completion evidence in a coding goal. - [Goal report editor](/agents/faye-coding-assistant/faye-goal-reporter/) — Defines a read-only editor for richer authoritative coding-goal snapshots. - [Source footprint analyst](/agents/faye-coding-assistant/source-file-token-estimator/) — Defines a read-only role for explicit file inventories and approximate token-footprint scenarios. - [Git-visible file discovery](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/git-file-discovery-af2ef3b7/) — Collects repository-visible paths and distinguishes supported fallback conditions from Git failures. - [Repository path utilities](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/repository-paths-4af93ae5/) — Normalizes and compares repository paths used by discovery and validation tools. - [Managed workspace storage](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/workspace-storage-09d1ad7c/) — Enforces project-local destinations for supported report-writing operations. - [Markdown reference checker](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/check-document-references-d074367c/) — Audits supported local Markdown references without editing repository files. - [Document discovery](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/document-discovery-b3033991/) — Finds Markdown and MDX files within the requested repository boundary. - [Markdown reference parsing](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/markdown-references-0f0779e1/) — Extracts the local reference forms supported by the documentation checker. - [Local reference validation](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/reference-validation-f77e4198/) — Resolves extracted document references and classifies missing or unsafe local targets. - [Shared file analysis](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/common-workspace-analysis-cc37385f/) — Computes file categories, line counts, aggregates, and hypothetical split costs. - [File analysis options](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/analysis-options-64a2f205/) — Parses and validates shared size thresholds and chunk-size options. - [Source file discovery](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/workspace-discovery-5b1d0b26/) — Selects candidate source-like files for the inventory and token estimation workflows. - [Source footprint report command](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/source-file-token-estimate-752cfe6e/) — Produces approximate token totals and hypothetical line-chunk comparisons for large source-like files. - [Workspace file inventory command](/scripts/faye-coding-assistant/workspace-file-inventory-ac1f6451/) — Lists the large source-like files and metadata used by token-footprint analysis. - [Shared code review contract](/references/faye-coding-assistant/review-contract-877c9410/) — Defines evidence, finding quality, verification gaps, and the boundary between review and remediation. - [Coding workspace storage](/references/faye-coding-assistant/workspace-storage-e67b2ca0/) — Defines contained project-local storage for reports, ledgers, and temporary coding evidence. - [Goal workflow boundaries](/references/faye-coding-assistant/anti-overlap-8af3974e/) — Separates goal guardrails from focused coding, utility, and GitHub workflows. - [Goal Git policy](/references/faye-coding-assistant/git-handling-policy-ac867766/) — Explains how goal work preserves existing changes and applies explicit Git authorization. - [Goal ledger template](/references/faye-coding-assistant/goal-ledger-template-9c7283e1/) — Provides a compact record of a coding goal's state, evidence, decisions, and continuation context. -
