How the habit works.
You don't have to.

Three questionsWhen does it start? How does it check its work? What does it remember?

One run, step by step.
Then it stops.

Stop ruleStops after five fixes per run; invasive changes wait for your yes.

  1. 01

    Take inventory

    Your agent runs npx cap doctor and npx cap ls, reads capacitor.config.ts and checks for SPM or CocoaPods.

  2. 02

    Review by area

    It works through config, versions, plugins, native iOS, native Android, live updates and release one at a time.

  3. 03

    Report findings

    It lists findings by severity with file:line and the fix before it edits anything.

  4. 04

    Ask first

    For a major upgrade, SPM migration, R8 or a new appId it asks you before changing anything.

  5. 05

    Fix with references

    It applies fixes using the matching file such as references/plugins.md or references/native-projects.md.

  6. 06

    Run verification

    It runs the version, sync, config, asset, error-handling and native build checks.

  7. 07

    Hand off deep topics

    Security, performance, tests and upgrades go to their sibling skills, such as capacitor-security.
