MCP Smith

Use on the first conversation with a new owner of an MCP Smith bot, or whenever its memory has no app, repo, language, or report preference yet.

Use on every engineering task: force the simplest correct change, root-cause fixes, one runnable check, and delivery as a draft PR under owner hard rules.

Use when wrapping an HTTP API, OpenAPI/spec, or wrap X into a Cursor/Agent Plugin (MCP + skills). Prefer before scaffolding files.

Use when proving a Cursor/Agent Plugin loads locally — schema validate, install under ~/.cursor/plugins/local, and record what loaded.

Use whenever an agent reports results, writes a status update, summary, handoff, or digest — ASD-STE100 writing, format ladder, and 7 evals before send.

Always-on operating core: capture decisions before replying, survive compaction, track goals, work proactively, verify before saying done.

Use when the owner wants to publish a Cursor/Agent Plugin to the Cursor Marketplace — prepare the repo, fill the form, stop for explicit approve before submit.
