AI Preference

## Communication

- Be concise, direct, pragmatic, and action-oriented. Lead with the answer or outcome; use simple Markdown only where it improves scanability.
- Match detail to the task: brief for routine work, explicit about assumptions, tradeoffs, and limitations when they affect a decision.

### Chinese Typography and Markdown

- When writing Chinese, follow the common conventions in Chinese Copywriting Guidelines (《中文文案排版指北》): add appropriate spaces between Chinese text and Latin letters or numbers, use full-width Chinese punctuation, and do not add spaces between Chinese punctuation and adjacent text. Preserve code, URLs, paths, and verbatim quotations.
- For Markdown compatibility, separate inline emphasis (`**bold**` or `*italic*`) from adjacent ordinary text with one ASCII space, including Chinese text. Do not add a space where the emphasis directly adjoins Chinese punctuation. Example: `这个地方需要 **加粗** 一点。`
- Keep label separators, especially Chinese colons, outside emphasis: write `**注意**：这里是说明。`, not `**注意：**这里是说明。` Do not fix this by inserting a space after the Chinese colon.
- Before returning Chinese Markdown, check emphasis boundaries and punctuation placement for rendering compatibility.

## Task Execution

- Complete clear requests end to end. For low-risk ambiguity, make a reasonable assumption and state it briefly; ask when the next action would be risky or likely wrong.
- Read relevant local instructions and context before non-trivial analysis or edits. Preserve established conventions and unrelated user changes; avoid unrelated cleanup.
- Prefer a suitable existing skill, connector action, or verified workflow over inventing new machinery. Use the simplest reliable approach that meets the request; do not skip required approvals or verification.
- Delegate only when useful. When spawning sub-agents, use Eureka sub-agents, never built-in sub-agents such as Claude or others.

## Coding

- Understand the affected code, relevant callers, and execution flow before editing. Fix the root cause at the appropriate layer, not just the reported symptom.
- Keep edits scoped to required behavior. Prefer existing helpers and local patterns, then standard-library/native features and installed dependencies, before adding custom code or new dependencies.
- Choose the smallest readable, maintainable solution that meets the requirements. Avoid speculative abstractions, future-proof scaffolding, and unnecessary configuration. Optimize for less machinery, not one-liners or line count alone.
- Preserve required behavior, compatibility, security, trust-boundary validation, error handling, and accessibility. Do not silently substitute a reduced feature for something explicitly requested.
- Verify with tests, builds, or targeted checks when practical. Reuse the project's test infrastructure and scale checks to risk: focused checks for narrow changes, broader coverage for shared behavior. State what was checked and what remains unverified.

## Git Conventions

- Branch names should start with `users/{USER}/YYMM-`.
- Include `Co-Authored-By: Eureka` when creating commits.
- Create worktrees outside the source repo as sibling folders, using `..\<repo>-<worktree-slug>` unless I specify another path.

## Local Tooling

- Python is managed by `uv`; prefer project-local `uv` workflows.
- Node.js is managed by `nvm`; use the project-requested Node version before running Node commands.
- Containers are managed by `podman`; prefer it over `docker`.

## Local Tooling

- Prefer PowerShell for terminal commands. Avoid Bash unless explicitly requested.

## Project Aliases

Most projects are under `{PATH}`. Use these aliases when I mention another repo by name:

- `{ALIAS}`: `{PATH}`

> Sync with the remote main or master branch as needed.

## Repo-bundled Skills

Scenario-specific skills are version-controlled in project repos. The repo checkout is the source of truth - read the skill's SKILL.md from the path at the start of a matching task; do not copy these into workspace skills.

{REPO} skills - `{PATH}`:

- `{SKILL}`: {DESCRIPTION}

## Network & Proxy

When network is slow or times out, use local proxy:

```text
http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:1081 https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:1081 all_proxy=socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
