Five Markdown Rituals to Keep Your AI Agent Honest
A set of engineering rituals that stop stateless AI agents from confidently building the wrong thing by forcing them to think first.

What it does
JSM Skills is a set of five markdown-based slash commands—/architect, /remember, /review, /recover, and /imprint—designed for any AI agent that supports the SKILL.md format. Each command enforces a specific engineering ritual: planning before coding, persisting session context to memory.md, reviewing for correctness rather than mere functionality, diagnosing failures without defaulting to debug mode, and cataloging UI patterns in ui-registry.md to keep components consistent.
The interesting bit The project treats AI agents as overconfident interns with no long-term memory. Rather than wrapping the agent in a new framework, it uses the agent’s own skill format to force pauses for thinking, remembering, and reviewing—essentially hacking discipline back into a stateless tool.
Key highlights
- Works across Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Cline, and other
SKILL.md-compatible agents. /architectproduces an implementation plan you confirm before any code is written./remembercompresses session state intomemory.mdand restores it at the start of the next session./reviewchecks plan alignment, system integrity, and production readiness—not just “does it run.”/imprintaudits your entire codebase for UI inconsistencies and establishes a visual baseline.
Verdict Grab this if you treat AI agents as a typing accelerator but still want to own the engineering decisions. Skip it if you are looking for a fully automated agent framework—this is explicitly about keeping you in the driver’s seat.
