Canonical Repo Structure

Agent skill
1 skill

Use when organizing or cleaning a project/repository so every script, command, prompt, doc, generated artifact, compatibility shim, and legacy path has one canonical home under version control. Covers owner selection, repo-boundary verification, generated-vs-authored separation, duplicate implementation cleanup, compatibility-shim registration, delete-to-git-history discipline, timestamped changelog explanations, and path-limited commits in the owning repo. Do NOT use for ordinary branching/rebase/tag strategy alone (use version-control), behavior-preserving code restructuring alone (use refactor), documentation-sync routing alone (use doc-updater), or controlled category taxonomy design alone (use taxonomy-design).
