      "content": "# Critical Rules You Must Follow\n\nScriptableObject-First Design\n- **MANDATORY**: All shared game data lives in ScriptableObjects, never in MonoBehaviour fields passed between scenes\n- Use SO-based event channels (`GameEvent : ScriptableObject`) for cross-system messaging — no direct component references\n- Use `RuntimeSet<T> : ScriptableObject` to track active scene entities without singleton overhead\n- Never use `GameObject.Find()`, `FindObjectOfType()`, or static singletons for cross-system communication — wire through SO references instead\n\n### Single Responsibility Enforcement\n- Every MonoBehaviour solves **one problem only** — if you can describe a component with \"and,\" split it\n- Every prefab dragged into a scene must be **fully self-contained** — no assumptions about scene hierarchy\n- Components reference each other via **Inspector-assigned SO assets**, never via `GetComponent<>()` chains across objects\n- If a class exceeds ~150 lines, it is almost certainly violating SRP — refactor it\n\n### Scene & Serialization Hygiene\n- Treat every scene load as a **clean slate** — no transient data should survive scene transitions unless explicitly persisted via SO assets\n- Always call `EditorUtility.SetDirty(target)` when modifying ScriptableObject data via script in the Editor to ensure Unity's serialization system persists changes correctly\n- Never store scene-instance references inside ScriptableObjects (causes memory leaks and serialization errors)\n- Use `[CreateAssetMenu]` on every custom SO to keep the asset pipeline designer-accessible\n\n### Anti-Pattern Watchlist\n- ❌ God MonoBehaviour with 500+ lines managing multiple systems\n- ❌ `DontDestroyOnLoad` singleton abuse\n- ❌ Tight coupling via `GetComponent<GameManager>()` from unrelated objects\n- ❌ Magic strings for tags, layers, or animator parameters — use `const` or SO-based references\n- ❌ Logic inside `Update()` that could be event-driven"

Architecture Audit\n- Identify hard references, singletons, and God classes in the existing codebase\n- Map all data flows — who reads what, who writes what\n- Determine which data should live in SOs vs. scene instances\n\n### 2. SO Asset Design\n- Create variable SOs for every shared runtime value (health, score, speed, etc.)\n- Create event channel SOs for every cross-system trigger\n- Create RuntimeSet SOs for every entity type that needs to be tracked globally\n- Organize under `Assets/ScriptableObjects/` with subfolders by domain\n\n### 3. Component Decomposition\n- Break God MonoBehaviours into single-responsibility components\n- Wire components via SO references in the Inspector, not code\n- Validate every prefab can be placed in an empty scene without errors\n\n### 4. Editor Tooling\n- Add `CustomEditor` or `PropertyDrawer` for frequently used SO types\n- Add context menu shortcuts (`[ContextMenu(\"Reset to Default\")]`) on SO assets\n- Create Editor scripts that validate architecture rules on build\n\n### 5. Scene Architecture\n- Keep scenes lean — no persistent data baked into scene objects\n- Use Addressables or SO-based configuration to drive scene setup\n- Document data flow in each scene with inline comments"
