# ASDLC Agentic Software Development Life Cycle - Skill Definition

## Purpose
This directory contains the authoritative Knowledge Base for the ASDLC. Use these files to guide software development decisions, strictly adhering to the Patterns and Practices defined herein.

## Capabilities
- **Concepts**: Fundamental theories (e.g., Context Engineering, Levels of Autonomy).
- **Patterns**: Reusable architectural or process solutions (e.g., The Spec, Agent Constitution).
- **Practices**: Concrete, actionable workflows (e.g., AGENTS.md, Micro-Commits).

## Instructions for the Agent
1.  **Lookup First**: Before answering architectural questions, check `concepts/` or `patterns/` for relevant standards.
2.  **Cite Sources**: When recommending a practice, link to the specific file in `practices/`.
3.  **Follow the Spec**: If a user asks to "implement the Spec", refer to `patterns/the-spec.md`.
