## Responsibility
This skill defines **how to perform** engineering work. Requirements, the PRD, task
tracker, TD/ADR, decision-making, and documentation history belong in the project's
canonical product and documentation sources. Do not copy their governance rules here
or create documents solely to satisfy this skill.
The method for adopting project-work rules is defined by the
[adoption workflow](references/adoption.md): either a complete copy of the skill in the
repository or an explicit pinned reference to the published skill. An unnamed semantic
duplicate is a migration defect, while a project-specific rule is valid only as a
setting or an explicitly accepted scoped exception. This skill does not grant authority
for destructive operations, merge, release, or deploy.
## Lifecycle and automatic application
Actions:
- **apply** — perform a routine engineering task under the rules below;
- **init** — adopt the skill as an automatically loaded project-work source;
- **audit** — read-only review of local rules and automation, with conflicts discussed;
- **migrate** — after approval, remove or replace conflicts and semantic duplicates
while preserving project settings and scoped exceptions;
- **update** — for a new revision, perform a limited audit + migrate, including removal
of older local requirements when the revision relaxes or removes them.
For `init`, `audit`, `migrate`, and `update`, follow the
[adoption workflow](references/adoption.md). Install
