response-config

Short, structured replies from your coding agent. Every next step gets an ID you can answer in one line. Pick the English level you want.

Fixed parseConfig crashing on an empty file; 14 of 14 tests pass.

## Actions
- 🔵 A1 Commit the fix: git commit -am "Handle empty config"
- 🔵 A2 Add a test for a config that has only comments.

## Questions
- 🔵 Q1 Should an empty file warn? (yes/no)

## Decisions
- 🔵 D1 Where should the default live?
  (a) in parseConfig (recommended)
  (b) in each caller

Answer with done A1, Q1: yes, D1: a. The IDs stay the same for the whole session, even after compaction or resume.

What you get

Minimal: a word budget for prose. Code, commands, errors, paths and diffs are never cut.
Structured: a one-line summary, then Actions, Suggestions, Questions and Decisions with IDs.
English level: CEFR A1 to C2, plain language, readability targets and controlled vocabularies.
Three agents: one skill for Claude Code, Codex and GitHub Copilot, with optional hooks that keep the item list.
