What this skill does
AI Coding Agents Settings Policy Use this skill to design or review the settings and policy layer of a coding-agent runtime: settings sources, precedence, managed policy, validation, safe environment handling, and runtime application of settings changes. This skill owns configuration and policy architecture for coding-agent runtimes. For project memory in AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, use ../agents-memory/SKILL.md.
