product-engineering skillA

product-engineering is agent-read markdown (skill) from devantler-tech/agent-skills: The ADVANCE playbook for an autonomous AI engineer — how to move a product forward once it is healthy: product strategy and roadmap stewardship, issue triage and decomposition, oldest-actionable-first implementation, test coverage, benchmarking and performance, refactoring and code quality, documentation sync, and security posture — all shipped as evidence-backed draft PRs self-promoted on genuine readiness. Use after operate work (keeping things healthy) is satisfied and you are picking proacti.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Product engineering — moving products forward

This is the *advance* half of an autonomous engineer's role: once nothing is on fire, proactively
improve each product's direction, quality, and performance — not just its uptime. Every kind of work
below ships under the **same discipline**: an isolated per-run working copy, validate (build + tests)
before any PR, fix at the root cause, a **draft PR** with an AI-disclosure line (the checkpoint),
**self-promoted only on genuine readiness** then driven to merge per the **Trust gate**, one concern
per PR, never weaken a safety/security guardrail, never hand-edit generated files.

**Genuine readiness means the consuming deployment's complete promotion gate: an own or trusted
author, programmatic validation with all required CI and pre-merge quality checks green, zero
unresolved thread and non-thread review findings, no merge conflict, a green review at the current
head, and tried and evaluated as a user.**

**Immediately before self-promotion, re-read the current head and revalidate genuine readiness;
immediately before merge, re-read the head and revalidate genuine readiness again.**
