borrowed-wire-protocol-discipline

borrowed-wire-protocol-discipline is an API design & implementation skill for AI agents, published by maxrave-dev in the kotlin-footguns repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates borrowed-wire-protocol-discipline D (68/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Rules for implementing a protocol someone else defined — no renaming, no reordering, constants the schema omits read off the counterpart implementation rather than guessed, unknown message types decoded to null instead of thrown, and negotiated capabilities narrowed but never widened. Use when your client must interoperate with an implementation you do not control, when a connection opens and then never gets anywhere, or when a peer on a newer version breaks your session.
