Prompt Builder Compatibility Skill

Goal

Preserve legacy prompt-builder activation while routing all source changes, review, behavior testing, validation, and outcome resolution through the hve-builder skill.

Flow

  • Translate promptFiles to targets. Treat files as reference context unless the caller explicitly includes them in the write boundary.
  • Resolve create when an approved target is missing and improve when targets already exist. Route explicit cleanup to the prompt-refactor compatibility skill and read-only analysis to prompt-analyze.
  • Activate hve-builder with the targets, selected mode, requirements, reference context, and any caller-owned evidence root.
  • Return the hve-builder final response without adding a second author, test, or evaluation loop.

Inputs

  • promptFiles: target prompt-engineering artifacts; defaults to current open or attached files
  • files: reference artifacts used to derive requirements
  • requirements: explicit objectives, constraints, and acceptance criteria
  • evidenceRoot: optional caller-owned HVE Builder evidence path

Success Criteria

  • Legacy inputs map to an explicit HVE Builder target set and write boundary.
  • hve-builder completes every required gate for the selected mode.
  • The returned overall outcome is unchanged from hve-builder.

Constraints

  • Do not dispatch retired named lifecycle workers.
  • Do not maintain a second sandbox, status vocabulary, or quality rubric.
  • Do not treat reference files as write targets without explicit approval.

Stop Rules

  • Stop when hve-builder returns Pass, Revise, Deferred, or Blocked.
  • Ask only when target identity or write authority cannot be inferred safely.

Handoff

Use prompt-analyze for a legacy read-only request and prompt-refactor for a legacy behavior-preserving cleanup request. Both route back to hve-builder.

Final Response Contract

Return the mode, targets, changed files, static verdict, behavior-test fidelity and verdict, validation result, overall outcome, evidence links, and next action.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
