# Perl Engineering

## Activation

- Trigger when Perl scripts, modules, or automation-heavy tasks dominate the task.

## Use These Surfaces

- .hforge/library/skills/perl-engineering/SKILL.md
- .hforge/library/docs/authoring/enhanced-skill-import.md
- RESEARCH-SOURCES.md
- VALIDATION.md
- .hforge/library/rules/common/
- .hforge/library/rules/perl
- .hforge/library/knowledge/structured/perl/
- .hforge/templates/workflows/implement-perl-change.md

## Operating Rule

Treat this wrapper as discovery-only. Load the canonical execution surface in .hforge/library/skills/perl-engineering/SKILL.md first, then pull deeper rules, knowledge, workflow, and provenance context only as needed to avoid duplicating pack guidance in the active agent context.
