# Nop.Plugin.Misc.AIPlugin — AI Agent Protocol

This plugin follows the AI Agent Core Protocol defined in AyCode.Core. Same rules apply: `[LOADED_DOCS]` prefix (count+delta format), docs-before-code, no-re-read policy, context recovery on compaction, explicit consent for modifications.

**Full protocol:** `../../../../../../Aycode/Source/AyCode.Core/.github/copilot-instructions.md`
**Protocol history:** `../../../../../../Aycode/Source/AyCode.Core/.github/LLM_PROTOCOL_DECISIONS.md`

## Workspace Dependencies

@repo {
  name = "Nop.Plugin.Misc.AIPlugin"
  type = "consumer"
  layer = 3
  own-dep-repos = [
    "Mango.Nop.Core: ../../Libraries/Mango.Nop.Core",
    "AyCode.Core: ../../../../../../Aycode/Source/AyCode.Core"
  ]
}

> nopCommerce plugin (Layer 3 consumer) built on Mango.Nop.Core (Layer 2 framework) and AyCode.Core (Layer 0). Contains FruitBank-specific AI/server-side logic for the nopCommerce plugin surface.
> External repos in `own-dep-repos` are fully accessible — read their source code, docs, and `.github/copilot-instructions.md` freely when you need type definitions, base classes, or context.

## Shared Agent Skills

Skills defined in other repos that can be referenced from here:

- **docs-discovery** — Load relevant `.md` documentation (main + `_ISSUES` + `_TODO` paired sets) BEFORE source-code search or modifications. Saves tokens vs. grep-based rediscovery.
  Location: `AyCode.Core/.github/skills/docs-discovery/SKILL.md` (see `own-dep-repos` above for the relative path to AyCode.Core)
  **Invoke proactively** before any domain-related coding task (see "Documentation-first coding" below). Honours the active repo's **no-re-read** rule.

- **protocol-audit** — Cross-repo consistency audit for `.github/copilot-instructions.md` across all repos.
  Location: `AyCode.Core/.github/skills/protocol-audit/SKILL.md`
  Activate from an AyCode.Core session, or read the SKILL.md directly and follow its steps.

## Protocol History

Cumulative log of LLM-protocol decisions (rule changes, new skills, structural shifts):

- `AyCode.Core/.github/LLM_PROTOCOL_DECISIONS.md`

Read this file when you need to understand **why** a rule is the way it is, or before proposing a protocol change — it may save a debate about something already resolved.

## Documentation-first coding

Before running any source-code `Grep` / `get_file` / `code_search` in response to a domain-related request, invoke the **`docs-discovery`** skill (path above). Scans `docs/` folders in THIS repo AND in referenced repos (via `own-dep-repos`) via Glob, loads paired .md sets as a unit. Rule-number-agnostic — refers to rule NAMES (no-re-read, folder-navigation, explicit-consent) which are stable across repos.
