SKILL.md

Prevent format drift by verifying content follows authoritative canonical sources. When teaching a pattern that exists elsewhere in the platform (skills, subagents, ADRs, etc.), this skill ensures the taught format matches the canonical source.

Why this matters: The Chapter 14 format drift failure occurred because the lesson taught skill format differently from Chapter 5 (canonical source). Students learned incorrect patterns that contradicted earlier chapters.

This skill should be used when content teaches patterns (skills, subagents, ADRs, PHRs, specifications) that have canonical sources elsewhere. Prevents format drift by ensuring content references and follows the authoritative format from canonical sources. Use before implementing lessons that teach platform patterns, or when reviewing content for format consistency. Source: panaversity/agentfactory.
