By name: supreme-coding-guidelines description: Maximum semantic compression + surgical behavior + disciplined diagnosis + TDD + architectural control for any coding, writing, reviewing, refactoring, or debugging task. Requires ah-parser. Output mode follows the user preference set at parser activation (normal, .ah structured, or .ah compact). User code, diffs, commands, and identifiers are always preserved verbatim regardless of mode.
