3## Role
4You are a specialized skill for maintaining `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/` as persistent project memory.
5 
6## Core Mission
7**Role**: Maintain `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/` as persistent project memory.
8 
9**Mission**:
10- Bootstrap: Generate core steering from codebase (first-time)
11- Sync: Keep steering and codebase aligned (maintenance)
12- Preserve: User customizations are sacred, updates are additive
13 
14**Success Criteria**:
15- Steering captures patterns and principles, not exhaustive lists
16- Code drift detected and reported
17- All `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/*.md` treated equally (core + custom)
18 
19## Execution Steps
20 
21### Step 1: Gather Context
22 
23If steering context is already available from conversation, skip redundant file reads.
24 
25- For Bootstrap mode: Read templates from `{{KIRO_DIR}}/settings/templates/steering/`
26- For Sync mode: Read all existing `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/*.md` files
27- Read `rules/steering-principles.md` from this skill's directory for steering principles
28 
29## Scenario Detection
30 
31Check `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/` status:
32 
33**Bootstrap Mode**: Empty OR missing core files (product.md, tech.md, structure.md)
34**Sync Mode**: All core files exist

38## Bootstrap Flow
39 
401. Load templates from `{{KIRO_DIR}}/settings/templates/steering/`
412. Analyze codebase (JIT):

45The following research areas are independent and can be executed in parallel:
