This page lists the generated reference documentation for HVE Core instructions.
| Asset | Description |
|---|---|

| Coding Standards/Csharp/Csharp Tests | C# (CSharp) test code authoring conventions |
| Coding Standards/Csharp/Csharp | C# (CSharp) code authoring conventions |
| Coding Standards/Powershell/Pester | Instructions for Pester testing conventions |

| Coding Standards/Uv Projects | Create and manage Python virtual environments using uv commands |
| Design Thinking/Dt Coach Telemetry | Applies Design Thinking telemetry expectations to DT session artifacts |
| Experimental/Experiment Designer | MVE domain knowledge and coaching conventions for the Experiment Designer agent |
| Experimental/Graphify | Conventions for consuming graphify-out/ knowledge-graph evidence inside the RPI workflow |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Bootstrap | Fresh-session Mural bootstrap requirements for doctor checks, credential backend selection, and safe escalation before Mural tool use. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Destinations | Open destination registry for Mural extractor writeback: registered adapters, intent axis, and per-destination loop-closure metrics. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Human Record | Mural is the durable record of human conversation; AI never silently authors decisions and AI contribution must remain visible somewhere durable. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Log Hygiene | Operator log-hygiene contract for Mural customizations: never echo raw URLs, Azure SAS query strings, OAuth tokens, or Authorization headers; the skill _redact() is a defense-in-depth backstop, not a license to log. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Seeding Patterns | Cross-cutting Mural seeding conventions: duplicate-then-populate, source-artifact-to-area binding, anchor inheritance, probe-before-bulk, z-order visibility (detection-only), layout primitives applied across DT, RAI, and UX/UI workflows. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Writeback Hygiene | Writeback hygiene rules for Mural: tags, hyperlinks, and parentId are the only stable channels; reserved tags are protected; tag manifests are re-applied defensively. |
| Experimental/Mural/Mural Writing Style | Asymmetric writing style for Mural: outbound (writing into Mural) is sticky-concise; inbound (extracting from Mural) is context-hydrated. |
| Experimental/Pptx | Shared conventions for PowerPoint Builder agent, subagent, and powerpoint skill |
| Hve Core/Commit Message | Commit message format and conventions |
| Hve Core/Copilot Tracking | Shared .copilot-tracking conventions for RPI, HVE Builder, and compatibility workflow evidence |
| Hve Core/Git Merge | Git merge, rebase, and rebase --onto workflows with conflict handling and stop controls |
| Hve Core/Hve Builder | Authoring standards for prompts, agents, subagents, instructions, and skills, grounded in the frontier-LLM instruction-quality research |

| Hve Core/Markdown | Markdown authoring conventions for all .md files |
| Hve Core/Pull Request | Pull request description generation and creation via diff analysis, subagent review, and MCP tools |
| Hve Core/Writing Style | Writing style conventions for voice, tone, and language in markdown content |
| Privacy/Privacy Identity | Privacy Planner identity, six-phase orchestration, state management, and session recovery protocols |
| Project Planning/Adr Byo Template | BYO ADR template contract: 2-layer config resolution, .adr-config.yml schema, template frontmatter contract, and adopt-template lifecycle for the ADR Creator |
| Project Planning/Adr Handoff | ADR Creator Govern-phase handoff protocol: compact summary template, peer-agent routing heuristics, and dual-format (ADO + GitHub) work item templates |
| Project Planning/Adr Identity | ADR Creator identity, three-phase state machine, six-step per-turn protocol, autonomy tiers, and canonical state.json schema for Architecture Decision Record authoring sessions |
| Project Planning/Adr Standards | Embedded ADR standards: MADR v4.0.0 template (CC0), Y-Statement formula, status taxonomy, naming rules, ASR trigger schema, and Microsoft-attributed paraphrases for ADR Creator sessions |
| Project Planning/Backlog Guardrails | Always-on mutation guardrail for backlog tracking roots: require backlog-management activation before any tracker-bound mutation and stop when it is unavailable |
| Project Planning/Community Interaction | Community interaction voice, tone, and response templates for GitHub-facing agents and prompts |
| Rai Planning/Rai Identity | RAI Planner identity, 6-phase orchestration, state management, and session recovery |

| Security/Standards Mapping | OWASP and NIST security standards references with rpi-research activation for CIS, WAF, CAF, and other runtime lookups |
| Security/Vex Generation | VEX generation rules: evidence requirements, confidence routing, forbidden transitions, report templates, and licensing posture for AI-assisted vulnerability triage - Brought to you by microsoft/hve-core |
| Security/Vex Standards | VEX document standards: canonical rule reference, licensing posture, author-of-record contract, and document mutation contract for OpenVEX management - Brought to you by microsoft/hve-core |

| Shared/Content Policy Citation | Content-policy and terms-of-service guardrails for public output and eval stimuli |
| Shared/Disclaimer Language | Centralized disclaimer language for AI-assisted planning and review agents requiring professional review acknowledgment |
| Shared/Hve Core Location | Important: hve-core is the repository containing this instruction file; Guidance: if a referenced prompt, instructions, agent, or script is missing in the current directory, fall back to this hve-core location by walking up this file's directory tree. |
| Shared/Planner Identity Base | Shared identity scaffold for phase-based planning agents (SSSC, RAI, Security, Accessibility, Privacy) covering state-file convention, six-phase orchestration template, state protocol, resume protocol, question cadence mechanics, optional disclaimer cadence, and error handling |
| Shared/Telemetry Overlay | Shared telemetry overlay applying telemetry-foundations vocabulary across planner, ADR, PRD, accessibility, code-review, and implementation artifacts |
