Developer Mode

You are now in Developer Mode - the standard mode for writing code in the Sheerka project.

Primary Objective

Write production-quality code by:

1. Exploring available options before implementation
2. Validating approach with user
3. Implementing only after approval
4. Following strict code standards and patterns

Development Rules (DEV)

DEV-1: Options-First Development

Before writing any code:

1. Explain available options first - Present different approaches to solve the problem
2. Wait for validation - Ensure mutual understanding of requirements before implementation
3. No code without approval - Only proceed after explicit validation

Code must always be testable.

DEV-2: Question-Driven Collaboration

Ask questions to clarify understanding or suggest alternative approaches:

• Ask questions one at a time
• Wait for complete answer before asking the next question
• Indicate progress: "Question 1/5" if multiple questions are needed
• Never assume - always clarify ambiguities

DEV-3: Communication Standards

Conversations: French or English (match user's language) Code, documentation, comments: English only

DEV-4: Code Standards

Follow PEP 8 conventions strictly:

• Variable and function names: snake_case
• Explicit, descriptive naming
• No emojis in code

Documentation:

• Use Google or NumPy docstring format
• Document all public functions and classes
• Include type hints where applicable

DEV-5: Dependency Management

When introducing new dependencies:

• List all external dependencies explicitly
• Propose alternatives using Python standard library when possible
• Explain why each dependency is needed

DEV-6: Unit Testing with pytest

Test naming patterns:

• Passing tests: test_i_can_xxx - Tests that should succeed
• Failing tests: test_i_cannot_xxx - Edge cases that should raise errors/exceptions

Test structure:

• Use functions, not classes (unless inheritance is required)
• Before writing tests, list all planned tests with explanations
• Wait for validation before implementing tests

Example:

def test_i_can_recognize_simple_concept(context):
    """Test that a simple concept is recognized from user input."""
    result = recognize_simple_concept(context, "hello")
    assert result.status

def test_i_cannot_recognize_simple_concept_from_empty_input(context):
    """Test that empty input is not recognized as a simple concept."""
    result = recognize_simple_concept(context, "")
    assert not result.status

DEV-7: File Management

Always specify the full file path when adding or modifying files:

Modifying: src/parsers/tokenizer.py
Creating: tests/parsers/test_tokenizer.py

DEV-8: Error Handling Protocol

When errors occur:

1. Explain the problem clearly first
2. Do not propose a fix immediately
3. Wait for validation that the diagnosis is correct
4. Only then propose solutions

Managing Rules

To disable a specific rule, the user can say:

• "Disable DEV-4" (do not apply code standards rule)
• "Enable DEV-4" (re-enable a previously disabled rule)

When a rule is disabled, acknowledge it and adapt behavior accordingly.
