Resumen

Use a shadow knowledge base to understand any codebase. The .shadow/ directory mirrors the source tree with markdown files containing behavioral insights — known bugs, edge cases, implicit contracts, and user preferences. Always check the shadow before editing, debugging, or investigating code. When the user shares important context, write it to the shadow immediately. Invoke shadow-frog-init to create it, shadow-frog-update to refresh it, shadow-frog-dream for autonomous exploration, shadow-frog-meditate for shadow hygiene, or shadow-frog-viewer to browse it.

ShadowFrog

.shadow/ mirrors the source tree. Each source file has a .md shadow organized by symbol. Each symbol section contains discoveries — behavioral insights anchored to that code location.

Required Actions

Every time you work on code in a repo with .shadow/:

  1. Read _prefs.md first — it contains project-wide conventions, user preferences, and things the user explicitly wants to avoid. Violating a preference wastes the user's time.
  2. Read _cross/ discoveries — these are the highest-value findings, spanning multiple files. List _cross/ and read any files whose titles relate to the area you're working in. Cross-cutting discoveries reveal hidden contracts, interaction bugs, and design patterns that per-file shadows alone cannot capture.
  3. Check _dreams/ for experiment results — _dreams/_index.md lists autonomous exploration experiments. Read reports relevant to your task — they contain verified bug analyses, attempted fixes, and architectural insights. Dreams may contain knowledge not yet distilled into per-file shadows, so always check when investigating a bug or unfamiliar area.
  4. Before editing any file: read its shadow (.shadow/<path>.md), check _cross/ for cross-cutting discoveries about it, and apply what you learn. The shadow contains known bugs, edge cases, and implicit contracts discovered by previous sessions. Note: _index.md discovery counts may be stale — always check per-file shadows and _cross/ directly rather than relying solely on the index summary.
  5. When the user explains something about code (gotcha, design intent, warning, history): write a source: user discovery to the shadow immediately. Do not ask where to put it — resolve the file::symbol anchor yourself by searching _index.md, shadow files, and session context (current file, recent edits).
  6. When the user states a preference or convention (not tied to any specific file): write it to _prefs.md immediately.
  7. After code changes: run /shadow-frog-update

Reference Notation

Canonical format: file_path::symbol_name

Examples: src/auth.py::authenticate_user, src/auth.py::UserAuth.validate, src/auth.py (file-level, no symbol)

The symbol name is the stable anchor.

Per-File Shadow Format

# Shadow: src/auth.py

**Language**: Python | **Lines**: 142 | **Last modified**: 2025-01-15

## File-Level

- This module has no __all__ — all top-level names are public.
  _(verified, source: exploration)_

## `class UserAuth`

### `UserAuth.validate`

- Catches ALL exceptions and returns False — swallows
  connection errors, making network failures look like invalid tokens.
  _(verified, source: exploration)_

## `authenticate_user`

- Silently returns None on expired tokens. Callers must check.
  _(verified, source: exploration, labels: [bug])_
  Also involves: `src/middleware.py::require_auth`

## Cross-References

- [db-connection-lifecycle](../_cross/db-connection-lifecycle.md)
  (involves `src/db/connection.py::ConnectionPool`, `src/api/routes.py::get_user`)

Heading format (hard rule — parsers depend on this):

  • Top-level symbols (classes, functions, constants): ## heading with symbol in backticks
  • Nested symbols (methods): ### heading with symbol in backticks
  • ## Cross-References — always last section

The viewer parser only matches the backtick form. A heading written as ### UserAuth.validate (no backticks) will have its discoveries silently dropped from search/top output. Always wrap the symbol in backticks, including for nested symbols.

Examples:

## `authenticate_user`
## `class UserAuth`
### `UserAuth.validate`

Cross-Cutting File Format (_cross/<slug>.md)

# Database connection lifecycle

**Category**: pattern
**Refs**:
- `src/db/connection.py::ConnectionPool.get`
- `src/auth.py::authenticate_user`
- `src/api/routes.py::get_user`

**Discovery**: All database access goes through a connection pool that
silently reconnects on failure. First request after DB restart is slow (~2s).

_(verified, source: exploration)_

Preferences File (_prefs.md)

Project-wide user preferences and conventions that are not tied to any specific file or symbol. These guide all agent work across the codebase.

# Preferences

- No backward compatibility — only keep the latest code, no shims or aliases.
  _(source: user)_

- Use snake_case for all Python function and variable names.
  _(source: user)_

- Prefer small, focused PRs over large sweeping changes.
  _(source: interaction)_

Format:

- <preference or convention>
  _(source: <user|interaction>)_

Preferences are always trusted (same rank as source: user). They don't need verified/uncertain/refuted — if the user said it, it's a directive.

When to write to _prefs.md vs per-file shadow vs _cross/:

  • Applies to the whole repo, no specific file → _prefs.md
  • Applies to a specific file or symbol → per-file shadow
  • Applies to 3+ specific files → _cross/<slug>.md

Discovery Format

Per-file discoveries (no IDs — anchored by their file::symbol heading):

- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_
  Also involves: `file::symbol`, `file::symbol`

With labels (optional — only when the discovery is actionable):

- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>, labels: [bug, security])_
  Also involves: `file::symbol`

With dream report link (optional — only for experiment-derived discoveries):

- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_
  Dream report: `_dreams/<dream-id>/`

Cross-cutting discoveries (one per _cross/<slug>.md file):

# <Title>

**Category**: <category>
**Refs**:
- `file::symbol`

**Discovery**: <behavioral statement>

_(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_

Slug naming: use descriptive kebab-case derived from the title. Example: title "Database connection lifecycle" → filename db-connection-lifecycle.md

Labels

Labels mark actionable discoveries so agents can quickly scan for specific types. Most discoveries are just knowledge — labels are only for findings that call for action.

LabelUse when
bugA defect that should be fixed
performanceA bottleneck or inefficiency
securityA vulnerability or unsafe pattern
feature-gapMissing functionality or improvement opportunity
tech-debtCode smell, duplication, refactoring opportunity

A discovery can have multiple labels: labels: [bug, security]. Omit labels entirely for pure observational knowledge.

Labels go in the metadata line:

_(verified, source: exploration, labels: [bug])_

Cross-cutting discoveries can also have labels — add them to the metadata line.

Fields
  • verified|uncertain|refuted — verification status
  • source: exploration — agent discovered via code analysis
  • source: user — human stated it in conversation
  • source: interaction — emerged from collaborative work (debugging, refactoring)
  • labels: [...] — optional, actionable labels (see table above)
  • Also involves: — file::symbol refs to other code locations (required if discovery touches other files)
  • Dream report: — optional, _dreams/<dream-id>/ link for experiment-derived discoveries
  • Category (cross-cutting only): pattern, behavior, edge-case, contract, performance, intent, warning, history, convention

Trust Order

  1. source: user — highest trust, always verified
  2. source: interaction — always verified
  3. verified from exploration
  4. uncertain — not yet confirmed
  5. refuted — skip
  1. File mapping: src/auth.py ↔ .shadow/src/auth.py.md
  2. Symbol anchoring: every source symbol has a ##/### heading in its shadow
  3. Also involves: per-file discoveries list other file::symbol locations
  4. Cross-ref back-pointers: per-file ## Cross-References links to _cross/<slug>.md entries
  5. Cross-cutting refs: _cross/<slug>.md **Refs**: lists all involved file::symbol locations

Links 4 and 5 are bidirectional: if _cross/db-connection-lifecycle.md references src/auth.py::fn, then src/auth.py.md must list it in ## Cross-References, and vice versa.

Seven Invariants

  1. Every included source file has exactly one shadow at .shadow/<path>.md
  2. Every symbol in source has a ##/### heading in its shadow
  3. Per-file discoveries touching other files have Also involves: with file::symbol
  4. Cross-ref back-pointers match: _cross/<slug>.md refs ↔ per-file ## Cross-References
  5. Every entry in ## Cross-References has a corresponding _cross/<slug>.md file
  6. Cross-cutting filenames are unique (enforced by filesystem)
  7. No duplicate discoveries (same behavioral claim at same symbol)

To audit a shadow for structural drift (invariant 3 format, invariants 4–5, plus enum and heading-format guards), locate the viewer script and run it:

VIEWER=""
for DIR in .github/skills/shadow-frog-viewer .claude/skills/shadow-frog-viewer; do
    [ -f "$DIR/shadow-viewer.py" ] && VIEWER="$DIR/shadow-viewer.py" && break
done
python3 "$VIEWER" --check-invariants

Exits 0 if clean, 1 with one violation per line otherwise. Invariant 3 is checked for anchor format only (not existence of the referenced file or symbol); invariants 1, 2, and 7 require source parsing / semantic match and are not statically checked; invariant 6 is filesystem-enforced.

Lookup Commands

# File's shadow
cat .shadow/src/auth.py.md

# Specific symbol's knowledge
grep -A 20 "## \`authenticate_user\`" .shadow/src/auth.py.md

# Cross-cutting discoveries for a file
grep -rl "src/auth.py::" .shadow/_cross/

# Search by topic
grep -rl "error.handling\|exception" .shadow/ --include="*.md"

# All user-shared knowledge
grep -r "source: user" .shadow/ --include="*.md"

# Project-wide preferences
cat .shadow/_prefs.md

# List all cross-cutting discovery files
ls .shadow/_cross/

Verification

Two methods, use whichever fits the claim:

  1. Read the source code at the relevant file::symbol

# ShadowFrog

`.shadow/` mirrors the source tree. Each source file has a `.md` shadow organized
by symbol. Each symbol section contains discoveries — behavioral insights anchored
to that code location.

## Required Actions

**Every time you work on code in a repo with `.shadow/`:**

1. **Read `_prefs.md` first** — it contains project-wide conventions,
   user preferences, and things the user explicitly wants to avoid.
   Violating a preference wastes the user's time.
2. **Read `_cross/` discoveries** — these are the highest-value findings,
   spanning multiple files. List `_cross/` and read any files whose titles
   relate to the area you're working in. Cross-cutting discoveries reveal
   hidden contracts, interaction bugs, and design patterns that per-file
   shadows alone cannot capture.
3. **Check `_dreams/` for experiment results** — `_dreams/_index.md` lists
   autonomous exploration experiments. Read reports relevant to your task —
   they contain verified bug analyses, attempted fixes, and architectural
   insights. Dreams may contain knowledge not yet distilled into per-file
   shadows, so always check when investigating a bug or unfamiliar area.
4. **Before editing any file**: read its shadow (`.shadow/<path>.md`),
   check `_cross/` for cross-cutting discoveries about it, and apply
   what you learn. The shadow contains known bugs, edge cases, and
   implicit contracts discovered by previous sessions.
   **Note**: `_index.md` discovery counts may be stale — always check
   per-file shadows and `_cross/` directly rather than relying solely on
   the index summary.
5. **When the user explains something about code** (gotcha, design intent,
   warning, history): write a `source: user` discovery to the shadow
   immediately. Do not ask where to put it — resolve the `file::symbol`
   anchor yourself by searching `_index.md`, shadow files, and session
   context (current file, recent edits).
6. **When the user states a preference or convention** (not tied to any
   specific file): write it to `_prefs.md` immediately.
7. **After code changes**: run `/shadow-frog-update`

## Reference Notation

Canonical format: `file_path::symbol_name`

Examples: `src/auth.py::authenticate_user`, `src/auth.py::UserAuth.validate`,
`src/auth.py` (file-level, no symbol)

The symbol name is the stable anchor.

## Per-File Shadow Format

```markdown
# Shadow: src/auth.py

**Language**: Python | **Lines**: 142 | **Last modified**: 2025-01-15

## File-Level

- This module has no __all__ — all top-level names are public.
  _(verified, source: exploration)_

## `class UserAuth`

### `UserAuth.validate`

- Catches ALL exceptions and returns False — swallows
  connection errors, making network failures look like invalid tokens.
  _(verified, source: exploration)_

## `authenticate_user`

- Silently returns None on expired tokens. Callers must check.
  _(verified, source: exploration, labels: [bug])_
  Also involves: `src/middleware.py::require_auth`

## Cross-References

- [db-connection-lifecycle](../_cross/db-connection-lifecycle.md)
  (involves `src/db/connection.py::ConnectionPool`, `src/api/routes.py::get_user`)
```

Heading format (**hard rule — parsers depend on this**):
- Top-level symbols (classes, functions, constants): `##` heading with symbol in backticks
- Nested symbols (methods): `###` heading with symbol in backticks
- `## Cross-References` — always last section

The viewer parser only matches the backtick form. A heading written as
`### UserAuth.validate` (no backticks) will have its discoveries
silently dropped from search/top output. Always wrap the symbol in
backticks, including for nested symbols.

Examples:
```
## `authenticate_user`
## `class UserAuth`
### `UserAuth.validate`
```

## Cross-Cutting File Format (`_cross/<slug>.md`)

```markdown
# Database connection lifecycle

**Category**: pattern
**Refs**:
- `src/db/connection.py::ConnectionPool.get`
- `src/auth.py::authenticate_user`
- `src/api/routes.py::get_user`

**Discovery**: All database access goes through a connection pool that
silently reconnects on failure. First request after DB restart is slow (~2s).

_(verified, source: exploration)_
```

## Preferences File (`_prefs.md`)

Project-wide user preferences and conventions that are not tied to any
specific file or symbol. These guide all agent work across the codebase.

```markdown
# Preferences

- No backward compatibility — only keep the latest code, no shims or aliases.
  _(source: user)_

- Use snake_case for all Python function and variable names.
  _(source: user)_

- Prefer small, focused PRs over large sweeping changes.
  _(source: interaction)_
```

Format:
```
- <preference or convention>
  _(source: <user|interaction>)_
```

Preferences are always trusted (same rank as `source: user`). They don't
need `verified/uncertain/refuted` — if the user said it, it's a directive.

When to write to `_prefs.md` vs per-file shadow vs `_cross/`:
- Applies to the whole repo, no specific file → `_prefs.md`
- Applies to a specific file or symbol → per-file shadow
- Applies to 3+ specific files → `_cross/<slug>.md`

## Discovery Format

Per-file discoveries (no IDs — anchored by their `file::symbol` heading):
```
- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_
  Also involves: `file::symbol`, `file::symbol`
```

With labels (optional — only when the discovery is actionable):
```
- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>, labels: [bug, security])_
  Also involves: `file::symbol`
```

With dream report link (optional — only for experiment-derived discoveries):
```
- <behavioral statement>
  _(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_
  Dream report: `_dreams/<dream-id>/`
```

Cross-cutting discoveries (one per `_cross/<slug>.md` file):
```
# <Title>

**Category**: <category>
**Refs**:
- `file::symbol`

**Discovery**: <behavioral statement>

_(<verified|uncertain|refuted>, source: <exploration|user|interaction>)_
```

Slug naming: use descriptive kebab-case derived from the title.
Example: title "Database connection lifecycle" → filename `db-connection-lifecycle.md`

### Labels

Labels mark actionable discoveries so agents can quickly scan for specific
types. Most discoveries are just knowledge — labels are only for findings
that call for action.

| Label | Use when |
|-------|----------|
| `bug` | A defect that should be fixed |
| `performance` | A bottleneck or inefficiency |
| `security` | A vulnerability or unsafe pattern |
| `feature-gap` | Missing functionality or improvement opportunity |
| `tech-debt` | Code smell, duplication, refactoring opportunity |

A discovery can have multiple labels: `labels: [bug, security]`.
Omit labels entirely for pure observational knowledge.

Labels go in the metadata line:
```
_(verified, source: exploration, labels: [bug])_
```

Cross-cutting discoveries can also have labels — add them to the metadata line.

### Fields

- `verified|uncertain|refuted` — verification status
- `source: exploration` — agent discovered via code analysis
- `source: user` — human stated it in conversation
- `source: interaction` — emerged from collaborative work (debugging, refactoring)
- `labels: [...]` — optional, actionable labels (see table above)
- `Also involves:` — `file::symbol` refs to other code locations (required if discovery touches other files)
- `Dream report:` — optional, `_dreams/<dream-id>/` link for experiment-derived discoveries
- `Category` (cross-cutting only): pattern, behavior, edge-case, contract, performance, intent, warning, history, convention

## Trust Order

1. `source: user` — highest trust, always `verified`
2. `source: interaction` — always `verified`
3. `verified` from exploration
4. `uncertain` — not yet confirmed
5. `refuted` — skip

## Five Reference Links (all must be maintained)

1. **File mapping**: `src/auth.py` ↔ `.shadow/src/auth.py.md`
2. **Symbol anchoring**: every source symbol has a `##`/`###` heading in its shadow
3. **Also involves**: per-file discoveries list other `file::symbol` locations
4. **Cross-ref back-pointers**: per-file `## Cross-References` links to `_cross/<slug>.md` entries
5. **Cross-cutting refs**: `_cross/<slug>.md` `**Refs**:` lists all involved `file::symbol` locations

Links 4 and 5 are bidirectional: if `_cross/db-connection-lifecycle.md` references
`src/auth.py::fn`, then `src/auth.py.md` must list it in `## Cross-References`, and vice versa.

## Seven Invariants

1. Every included source file has exactly one shadow at `.shadow/<path>.md`
2. Every symbol in source has a `##`/`###` heading in its shadow
3. Per-file discoveries touching other files have `Also involves:` with `file::symbol`
4. Cross-ref back-pointers match: `_cross/<slug>.md` refs ↔ per-file `## Cross-References`
5. Every entry in `## Cross-References` has a corresponding `_cross/<slug>.md` file
6. Cross-cutting filenames are unique (enforced by filesystem)
7. No duplicate discoveries (same behavioral claim at same symbol)

To audit a shadow for structural drift (invariant 3 format, invariants 4–5,
plus enum and heading-format guards), locate the viewer script and run it:

```bash
VIEWER=""
for DIR in .github/skills/shadow-frog-viewer .claude/skills/shadow-frog-viewer; do
    [ -f "$DIR/shadow-viewer.py" ] && VIEWER="$DIR/shadow-viewer.py" && break
done
python3 "$VIEWER" --check-invariants
```

Exits 0 if clean, 1 with one violation per line otherwise. Invariant 3 is
checked for anchor *format* only (not existence of the referenced file or
symbol); invariants 1, 2, and 7 require source parsing / semantic match and
are not statically checked; invariant 6 is filesystem-enforced.

## Lookup Commands

```bash
# File's shadow
cat .shadow/src/auth.py.md

# Specific symbol's knowledge
grep -A 20 "## \`authenticate_user\`" .shadow/src/auth.py.md

# Cross-cutting discoveries for a file
