Kaizen: Continuous Improvement

Detailed Guide

Read the detailed guide before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.

When to Use

Apply within the requested scope for:

  • Code implementation and refactoring
  • Architecture and design decisions
  • Process and workflow improvements
  • Error handling and validation

Philosophy: Quality through incremental progress and prevention, not perfection through massive effort.

Limitations

  • Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
  • Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.

Example

When a total accepts NaN, add finite-number validation at its input boundary, verify finite/negative cases, and review the small diff before broader refactoring. Do not treat an example snippet as evidence that tests passed.
