Developer creates AI skill to teach SOLID principles without over-engineering

A developer has created a new skill called "solidifier" designed to teach AI coding assistants, including Claude Code, how to apply SOLID principles and design patterns without introducing unnecessary complexity. The skill addresses the tendency of some AI models to over-engineer solutions by prioritizing restraint and requiring concrete justifications for abstractions. Solidifier offers four rigor levels, from advisory to thorough, and can be customized with a configuration file to specify which principles and patterns are applied or banned. AI

IMPACT This tool aims to improve the code quality generated by AI assistants by focusing on practical application of design principles.
