The definitive source of truth for all coding conventions, environment constraints, and architecture layouts in the SICTIC-AI repository. The AI must review this skill before writing, modifying, or refactoring any Python code to ensure strict adherence.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Standards and Architecture

This skill defines repository technical contracts. Read it before modifying code.

Follow the repository-root [AGENTS.md](../../AGENTS.md) for scope,
approval, implementation review and verification procedures.

See [Architecture and layout reference](references/architecture.md)
for the storage layout, module map and skill-directory example.

## Environment and common conventions

- Execute Python through the `sictic-env` Conda environment, bootstrapped
  from `environment.yml` by `install.sh`.
- The installer adds the repository root through a `.pth` file, so
  `skills` and `lib` imports work from any CWD without `PYTHONPATH`.
- Python files and skill packages use lowercase snake_case names.
  Dataset names are lowercase.
- Functions instantiate single-use dependencies unless sharing persistent
  state such as a database connection pool. Preserve existing optional client
  and storage injection points for testing and caller-owned resources.

## People: identity, evidence and workflows

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ducroo/sictic-ai/standards_and_architecture@sha256:8a63694e2a36acee

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.6804525, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
