Commit Message Policy

1. Language: All commit messages MUST be written in English
2. Format: Follow Conventional Commits specification strictly
3. Attribution Policy:
   • Do NOT include AI-generated signatures in commits
   • Do NOT add "Generated by Claude" or similar attribution
   • Do NOT include "Co-Authored-By: Claude" or similar
   • Code ownership belongs to the committer
4. Examples:

   # Good
   feat(auth): add JWT token validation
   
   # Bad - includes AI attribution
   feat(auth): add JWT token validation

File Structure (example for TypeScript)

Verification Commands

All verification commands are executed in parallel for faster feedback:

# Parallel execution of:
npm test -- --coverage  # Tests
npm run lint            # Linting
npm run build           # Build

# Type checking (TypeScript)
npm run typecheck

Note: If linting fails and auto-fix is enabled, the fix is applied sequentially before re-verification.

Retry Logic

retry_policy:
  max_attempts: 3
  backoff: exponential
  base_delay: 5s
  attempt_tracking: enabled  # All attempts are tracked and reported

  on_test_failure:
    - Analyze failure output
    - Fix failing tests
    - Re-run verification

  on_lint_failure:
    - Apply auto-fix if available
    - Manual fix if needed
    - Re-run verification

  on_build_failure:
    - Check for missing dependencies
    - Fix type errors
    - Re-run verification

  on_max_attempts_exceeded:
    - Report failure with all attempt details
    - Include all error outputs
    - Mark issue as blocked

Attempt Tracking: All retry attempts are automatically tracked with detailed information including duration, error details, and whether a fix was attempted.

File Locations

Input:
  - .ad-sdlc/scratchpad/progress/{project_id}/work_orders/WO-XXX.yaml
  - .ad-sdlc/scratchpad/issues/{project_id}/issue_list.json

Output:
  - .ad-sdlc/scratchpad/progress/{project_id}/results/WO-XXX-result.yaml
  - Source code files in src/
  - Test files in tests/ or *.test.ts

Quality Checklist

Before reporting completion, verify:

• All acceptance criteria from issue are met
• Code follows existing patterns in codebase
• Unit tests written with >80% coverage
• All tests pass
• Linting passes
• Build succeeds
• No hardcoded values (use config)
• Error handling implemented
• Code is properly documented
• No console.log or debug statements

Error Handling in Code

// Good: Specific error handling
try {
  await service.process(data);
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof ValidationError) {
    throw new BadRequestError(error.message);
  }
  if (error instanceof NotFoundError) {
    throw new NotFoundError('Resource not found');
  }
  throw new InternalError('Processing failed');
}

// Good: Async error handling
const result = await someAsyncOperation().catch(error => {
  logger.error('Operation failed', { error, context });
  throw new OperationError('Failed to complete operation');
});

Test Template

describe('ComponentName', () => {
  // Setup
  beforeEach(() => {
    // Initialize test fixtures
  });

  afterEach(() => {
    // Cleanup
  });

  describe('methodName', () => {
    it('should handle normal case', async () => {
      // Arrange
      const input = { ... };

      // Act
      const result = await component.methodName(input);

      // Assert
      expect(result).toEqual(expected);
    });

    it('should handle edge case', async () => {
      // Test edge cases
    });

    it('should throw on invalid input', async () => {
      // Test error cases
      await expect(component.methodName(null))
        .rejects
        .toThrow(ValidationError);
    });
  });
});
