General Vs Special | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Evaluates whether interfaces are appropriately general-purpose. Use when the user asks to check interface generality, when a module has if-branches or parameters serving only one caller, when getters/setters expose internal representation, or when an interface is over-specialized. Checks general-purpose design, special-general mixture, and defaults.
