# Workflow Orchestration
## 1. Plan Mode Default
- Enter plan mode for ANY non-trivial task (3+ steps or architectural decisions)
- If something goes sideways, STOP and re-plan immediately - don't keep pushing
- Use plan mode for verification steps, not just building
- Write detailed specs upfront to reduce ambiguity
## 2. Subagent Strategy
- Use subagents liberally to keep main context window clean
- Offload research, exploration, and parallel analysis to subagents
- For complex problems, throw compute at it via parallelizing
- One task per subagent for focused execution
## 3. Self-Improvement Loop
- After ANY correction from the user: update `tasks/lessons.md` with the pattern
- Write rules for yourself that prevent the same mistake
- Ruthlessly iterate on these rules until mistake drops
- Review lessons at session start for relevant project
## 4. Verification Before Done
- Never mark a task complete without proving it works
- Diff behavior between main and your changes when relevant
- Ask yourself: "Would a staff engineer approve this?"
- Run tests, check logs, demonstrate correctness
## 5. Demand Elegance (Balanced)
- For non-trivial changes: pause and ask "is there a more elegant way?"
- If a fix feels hacky: "Know now, do later, implement the elegant solution"
- Skip this for simple, obvious fixes - don't over-engineer
- Challenge your own first solution
## 6. Autonomous Bug Fixing
- When given a bug report: just fix it. Don't ask for hand-holding
- Point at logs, errors, failing tests - then resolve them
- Zero context switching required from the user
- Go fix failing CI tests without being told how
# Task Management
1. **Plan First**: Write plan to `tasks/todo.md` with checkable items
2. **Verify Plans**: Check in before starting implementation
3. **Track Progress**: Mark items complete as you go
4. **Explain Changes**: High-level summary at each step
5. **Document Results**: Add review section to `tasks/todo.md`
6. **Capture Lessons**: Update `tasks/lessons.md` after corrections
# Core Principles
**Simplicity First**: Make every change as simple as possible. Impact minimal code.
**No Boilerplate**: Skip documentation. No README/docs bloat. Test only if requested.
**Minimal Impact**: Changes should only touch what's necessary. Avoid introducing bugs.

# XRPL Amendment Creation Skill
This skill guides you through creating XRPL amendments, whether for brand new features or fixes/extensions to existing functionality.
## Amendment Types
There are two main types of amendments:
1. **New Feature Amendment** (`feature{Name}`) - Entirely new functionality
2. **Fix/Extension Amendment** (`fix{Name}`) - Modifications to existing functionality
## Step 1: Determine Amendment Type
Ask the user:
- Is this a **brand new feature** (new transaction type, ledger entry, or capability)?
- Or is this a **fix or extension** to existing functionality?
---
## For NEW FEATURE Amendments
### Checklist:
#### 1. Feature Definition in features.macro
**ONLY FILE TO EDIT:** `include/xrpl/protocol/detail/features.macro`
- [ ] Add to TOP of features.macro (reverse chronological order):
```
XRPL_FEATURE(YourFeatureName, Supported::no, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
```
- [ ] This creates the variable `featureYourFeatureName` automatically
- [ ] Follow naming convention: Use the feature name WITHOUT the "feature" prefix
- [ ] Examples: `Batch``featureBatch`, `LendingProtocol``featureLendingProtocol`
#### 2. Support Status
- [ ] Start with `Supported::no` during development
- [ ] Change to `Supported::yes` when ready for network voting
- [ ] Use `VoteBehavior::DefaultNo` (validators must explicitly vote for it)
#### 3. Code Implementation
- [ ] Implement new functionality (transaction type, ledger entry, etc.)
- [ ] Add feature gate check in preflight:
```cpp
if (!env.current()->rules().enabled(feature{Name}))
{
return temDISABLED;
}
```
#### 4. Disable Route Handling
- [ ] Ensure transaction returns `temDISABLED` when amendment is disabled
- [ ] Implement early rejection in preflight/preclaim phase
- [ ] Add appropriate error messages
#### 5. Test Implementation
Create comprehensive test suite with this structure:
```cpp
class {FeatureName}_test : public beast::unit_test::suite
{
public:
void testEnable(FeatureBitset features)
{
testcase("enabled");
// Test with feature DISABLED
{
auto const amendNoFeature = features - feature{Name};
Env env{*this, amendNoFeature};
env(transaction, ter(temDISABLED));
}
// Test with feature ENABLED
{
Env env{*this, features};
env(transaction, ter(tesSUCCESS));
// Validate new functionality works
}
}
void testPreflight(FeatureBitset features)
{
testcase("preflight");
// Test malformed transaction validation
}
void testPreclaim(FeatureBitset features)
{
testcase("preclaim");
// Test signature and claim phase validation
}
void testWithFeats(FeatureBitset features)
{
testEnable(features);
testPreflight(features);
testPreclaim(features);
// Add feature-specific tests
}
void run() override
{
using namespace test::jtx;
auto const all = supported_amendments();
testWithFeats(all);
}
};
```
#### 6. Test Coverage Requirements
- [ ] Test amendment DISABLED state (returns `temDISABLED`)
- [ ] Test amendment ENABLED state (returns `tesSUCCESS`)
- [ ] Test malformed transactions
- [ ] Test signature validation
- [ ] Test edge cases specific to feature
- [ ] Test amendment transition behavior
#### 7. Documentation
- [ ] Create specification document (XLS_{NAME}.md)
- [ ] Document new transaction types, ledger entries, or capabilities
- [ ] Create test plan document
- [ ] Document expected behavior when enabled/disabled
---
## For FIX/EXTENSION Amendments
### Checklist:
#### 1. Fix Definition in features.macro
**ONLY FILE TO EDIT:** `include/xrpl/protocol/detail/features.macro`
- [ ] Add to TOP of features.macro (reverse chronological order):
```
XRPL_FIX(YourFixName, Supported::no, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
```
- [ ] This creates the variable `fixYourFixName` automatically
- [ ] Follow naming convention: Use the fix name WITHOUT the "fix" prefix (it's added automatically)
- [ ] Examples: `TokenEscrowV1``fixTokenEscrowV1`, `DirectoryLimit``fixDirectoryLimit`
- [ ] Start with `Supported::no` during development, change to `Supported::yes` when ready
#### 2. Backward Compatibility Implementation
**Critical**: Use enable() with if/else to preserve existing functionality
```cpp
// Check if fix is enabled
bool const fix{Name} = env.current()->rules().enabled(fix{Name});
// Conditional logic based on amendment state
if (fix{Name})
{
// NEW behavior with fix applied
// This is the corrected/improved logic
}
else
{
// OLD behavior (legacy path)
// Preserve original functionality for backward compatibility
}
```
**Alternative pattern with ternary operator:**
```cpp
auto& viewToUse = sb.rules().enabled(fix{Name}) ? sb : legacyView;
```
#### 3. Multiple Fix Versions Pattern
For iterative fixes, use version checking:
```cpp
bool const fixV1 = rv.rules().enabled(fixXahauV1);
bool const fixV2 = rv.rules().enabled(fixXahauV2);
switch (transactionType)
{
case TYPE_1:
if (fixV1) {
// Behavior with V1 fix
} else {
// Legacy behavior
}
break;
case TYPE_2:
if (fixV2) {
// Behavior with V2 fix
} else if (fixV1) {
// Behavior with only V1
} else {
// Legacy behavior
}
break;
}
```
#### 4. Test Both Paths
Always test BOTH enabled and disabled states:
```cpp
void testFix(FeatureBitset features)
{
testcase("fix behavior");
for (bool withFix : {false, true})
{
auto const amend = withFix ? features : features - fix{Name};
Env env{*this, amend};
// Setup test scenario
env.fund(XRP(1000), alice);
env.close();
if (!withFix)
{
// Test OLD behavior (before fix)
env(operation, ter(expectedErrorWithoutFix));
// Verify old behavior is preserved
}
else
{
// Test NEW behavior (after fix)
env(operation, ter(expectedErrorWithFix));
// Verify fix works correctly
}
}
}
```
#### 5. Security Fix Pattern
For security-critical fixes (like fixBatchInnerSigs):
```cpp
// Test vulnerability exists WITHOUT fix
{
auto const amendNoFix = features - fix{Name};
Env env{*this, amendNoFix};
// Demonstrate vulnerability
// Expected: Validity::Valid (WRONG - vulnerable!)
BEAST_EXPECT(result == Validity::Valid);
}
// Test vulnerability is FIXED WITH amendment
{
Env env{*this, features};
// Demonstrate fix
// Expected: Validity::SigBad (CORRECT - protected!)
BEAST_EXPECT(result == Validity::SigBad);
}
```
#### 6. Test Coverage Requirements
- [ ] Test fix DISABLED (legacy behavior preserved)
- [ ] Test fix ENABLED (new behavior applied)
- [ ] Test amendment transition
- [ ] For security fixes: demonstrate vulnerability without fix
- [ ] For security fixes: demonstrate protection with fix
- [ ] Test edge cases that triggered the fix
- [ ] Test combinations with other amendments
#### 7. Documentation
- [ ] Document what was broken/suboptimal
- [ ] Document the fix applied
- [ ] Document backward compatibility behavior
- [ ] Create test summary showing both paths
---
## Best Practices for All Amendments
### 1. Naming Conventions
- New features: `feature{DescriptiveName}` (e.g., `featureBatch`, `featureHooks`)
- Fixes: `fix{IssueDescription}` (e.g., `fixBatchInnerSigs`, `fixNSDelete`)
- Use CamelCase without underscores
### 2. Feature Flag Checking
```cpp
// At the point where behavior diverges:
bool const amendmentEnabled = env.current()->rules().enabled(feature{Name});
// Or in view/rules context:
if (!rv.rules().enabled(feature{Name}))
return {}; // or legacy behavior
```
### 3. Error Codes
- New features when disabled: `temDISABLED`
- Fixes may return different validation errors based on state
- Document all error code changes
### 4. Test Structure Template
```cpp
class Amendment_test : public beast::unit_test::suite
{
public:
// Core tests
void testEnable(FeatureBitset features); // Enable/disable states
void testPreflight(FeatureBitset features); // Validation
void testPreclaim(FeatureBitset features); // Claim phase
// Feature-specific tests
void test{SpecificScenario1}(FeatureBitset features);
void test{SpecificScenario2}(FeatureBitset features);
// Master orchestrator
void testWithFeats(FeatureBitset features)
{
testEnable(features);
testPreflight(features);
testPreclaim(features);
test{SpecificScenario1}(features);
test{SpecificScenario2}(features);
}
void run() override
{
using namespace test::jtx;
auto const all = supported_amendments();
testWithFeats(all);
}
};
BEAST_DEFINE_TESTSUITE(Amendment, app, ripple);
```
### 5. Documentation Files
Create these files:
- **Specification**: `XLS_{FEATURE_NAME}.md` - Technical specification
- **Test Plan**: `{FEATURE}_COMPREHENSIVE_TEST_PLAN.md` - Test strategy
- **Test Summary**: `{FEATURE}_TEST_IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md` - Test results
- **Review Findings**: `{FEATURE}_REVIEW_FINDINGS.md` (if applicable)
### 6. Amendment Transition Testing
Test the moment an amendment activates:
```cpp
void testAmendmentTransition(FeatureBitset features)
{
testcase("amendment transition");
// Start with amendment disabled
auto const amendNoFeature = features - feature{Name};
Env env{*this, amendNoFeature};
// Perform operations in disabled state
env(operation1, ter(temDISABLED));
// Enable amendment mid-test (if testing mechanism supports it)
// Verify state transitions correctly
// Perform operations in enabled state
env(operation2, ter(tesSUCCESS));
}
```
### 7. Cache Behavior
If amendment affects caching (like fixBatchInnerSigs):
- [ ] Test cache behavior without fix
- [ ] Test cache behavior with fix
- [ ] Document cache invalidation requirements
### 8. Multi-Amendment Combinations
Test interactions with other amendments:
```cpp
void testMultipleAmendments(FeatureBitset features)
{
// Test all combinations
for (bool withFeature1 : {false, true})
for (bool withFeature2 : {false, true})
{
auto amend = features;
if (!withFeature1) amend -= feature1;
if (!withFeature2) amend -= feature2;
Env env{*this, amend};
// Test interaction behavior
}
}
```
### 9. Performance Considerations
- [ ] Minimize runtime checks (cache `rules().enabled()` result if used multiple times)
- [ ] Avoid nested feature checks where possible
- [ ] Document performance impact
### 10. Code Review Checklist
- [ ] Both enabled/disabled paths are tested
- [ ] Backward compatibility is preserved (for fixes)
- [ ] Error codes are appropriate
- [ ] Documentation is complete
- [ ] Security implications are considered
- [ ] Cache behavior is correct
- [ ] Edge cases are covered

## Common Patterns Reference
### Pattern: New Transaction Type
```cpp
// In transactor code:
TER doApply() override
{
if (!ctx_.view().rules().enabled(feature{Name}))
return temDISABLED;
// New transaction logic here
return tesSUCCESS;
}
```
### Pattern: New Ledger Entry Type
```cpp
// In ledger entry creation:
if (!view.rules().enabled(feature{Name}))
return temDISABLED;
auto const sle = std::make_shared<SLE>(ltNEW_TYPE, keylet);
view.insert(sle);
```
### Pattern: Behavioral Fix
```cpp
// At decision point:
bool const useFix = view.rules().enabled(fix{Name});
if (useFix)
{
// Corrected behavior
return performCorrectValidation();
}
else
{
// Legacy behavior (preserved for compatibility)
return performLegacyValidation();
}
```
### Pattern: View Selection
```cpp
// Select which view to use based on amendment:
auto& applyView = sb.rules().enabled(feature{Name}) ? newView : legacyView;
```

## Example Workflows
### Workflow 1: Creating a New Feature Amendment
1. User requests: "Add a new ClaimReward transaction type"
2. Skill asks: "What should the amendment be called? (e.g., BalanceRewards - without 'feature' prefix)"
3. Add to features.macro:
```
XRPL_FEATURE(BalanceRewards, Supported::no, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
```
4. Implement transaction with `temDISABLED` gate using `featureBalanceRewards`
5. Create test suite with testEnable, testPreflight, testPreclaim
6. Run tests with amendment enabled and disabled
7. When ready, update to `Supported::yes` in features.macro
8. Create specification document
9. Review checklist
### Workflow 2: Creating a Fix Amendment
1. User requests: "Fix the signature validation bug in batch transactions"
2. Skill asks: "What should the fix be called? (e.g., BatchInnerSigs - without 'fix' prefix)"
3. Add to features.macro:
```
XRPL_FIX(BatchInnerSigs, Supported::no, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
```
4. Implement fix with if/else using `fixBatchInnerSigs` to preserve old behavior
5. Create test demonstrating vulnerability without fix
6. Create test showing fix works when enabled
7. When ready, update to `Supported::yes` in features.macro
8. Document both code paths
9. Review checklist

## Quick Reference: File Locations
- **Amendment definitions (ONLY place to add)**: `include/xrpl/protocol/detail/features.macro`
- **Feature.h (auto-generated, DO NOT EDIT)**: `include/xrpl/protocol/Feature.h`
- **Feature.cpp (auto-generated, DO NOT EDIT)**: `src/libxrpl/protocol/Feature.cpp`
- **Test files**: `src/test/app/` or `src/test/protocol/`
- **Specifications**: Project root (e.g., `XLS_SMART_CONTRACTS.md`)
- **Test plans**: Project root (e.g., `BATCH_COMPREHENSIVE_TEST_PLAN.md`)
## How the Macro System Works
The amendment system uses C preprocessor macros:
1. **features.macro** - Single source of truth (ONLY file you edit):
```
XRPL_FEATURE(Batch, Supported::yes, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
XRPL_FIX(TokenEscrowV1, Supported::yes, VoteBehavior::DefaultNo)
```
2. **Feature.h** - Auto-generated declarations from macro:
```cpp
extern uint256 const featureBatch;
extern uint256 const fixTokenEscrowV1;
```
3. **Feature.cpp** - Auto-generated registrations from macro:
```cpp
uint256 const featureBatch = registerFeature("Batch", ...);
uint256 const fixTokenEscrowV1 = registerFeature("fixTokenEscrowV1", ...);
```
**DO NOT** modify Feature.h or Feature.cpp directly - they process features.macro automatically.
