Root cause: I ran the full unit suite at the end of every autodev
batch despite implement/SKILL.md already saying that is forbidden
(lines 33, 136, 145, 372). The skill's existing rules were buried
mid-document; coderule.mdc's general "run full suite when done"
overrode them in practice because each batch felt like a "done"
point.
Two targeted clarifications:
- .cursor/rules/coderule.mdc: add an Iterative-Skill Exception
bullet stating that when an iterative loop skill (autodev /
implement batch loop, refactor batch loop) is active, the
skill governs full-suite cadence and "done with changes"
means done with the implementation phase, not done with one
batch.
- .cursor/skills/implement/SKILL.md: hoist the per-batch / per-
task / Step-16 cadence rule into a top-of-file "READ FIRST,
EVERY BATCH" banner with an explicit anti-pattern check ("if
you catch yourself about to run pytest tests/ at end of batch,
STOP").

Transitioned the autodev state to phase 21, reflecting the completion of Step 5 and the drafting of Step 6 epics. Revised the architecture documentation to clarify the roles of the Tile Manager and its components, ensuring accurate representation of the system's operational flow. Updated glossary entries for Flight State and Operator to incorporate recent changes and enhance clarity on component interactions and responsibilities.
Updated the meta-rule document to emphasize strict adherence to skill instructions, prohibiting unnecessary investigations or external checks. Revised acceptance criteria and restrictions to correct communication protocol details for ArduPilot and iNav, ensuring clarity on external-positioning interfaces. Adjusted autodev state to reflect ongoing research phase and updated sub-step details for improved tracking.
