## When to Use

Use this skill when:
- Adding a new subsystem or major package
- Moving responsibilities between local store, cloud, dashboard, or plugins
- Changing sync flow, source-of-truth rules, or persistence boundaries

---

## Core Guardrails

1. Local SQLite is the source of truth; cloud is replication and shared access.
2. Keep plugin/adaptor layers thin; real behavior belongs in Go packages.
3. Prefer explicit boundaries: store, cloudstore, server, dashboard, autosync.
4. New features must fit the existing local-first mental model before they fit the UI.
5. Do not hide cross-system coupling inside helpers or templates.

---

## Decision Rules

- Local-only concern -> `internal/store`
- Cloud materialization or org-wide control -> `internal/cloud/cloudstore`
- HTTP contract or enforcement -> `internal/cloud/cloudserver`
- Browser rendering and UX -> `internal/cloud/dashboard`
- Background orchestration -> `internal/cloud/autosync`

---

## Validation

- Add regression tests for every boundary change.
- Verify local, remote, and dashboard behavior still tell the same product story.
- If the change touches sync, test both push and pull paths.
