…a skill Three ambiguities surfaced while migrating leaf modules with the skill: - The header rule conflicted with "preserve Javadoc exactly / never invent", so the migration kept the source's `/* generated by Xtext */` or `/** */` header instead of the Avaloq banner. Make explicit that the banner REPLACES any source header and that "never invent" covers class/member Javadoc only, not the copyright header. - The hard rule mandates reading `xtend-gen/`, but it is gitignored and absent in a fresh checkout. Add an explicit fallback: build the module to generate it, or read a pre-converted reference branch's `.java` as the equivalent behavioural ground truth. Never write Java from the `.xtend` source alone. - The skill never mentioned `src-gen/` — the MWE2/Xtext-generated `Abstract*` supertypes the migrated class extends/overrides. It is committed (unlike `xtend-gen/`) and is the authoritative source for inherited constructor signatures, real `@Override` targets, and Xtend-inferred return types.

Two clarifications to the xtend-to-java skill, prompted by ambiguities hit while migrating leaf modules:
/* generated by Xtext */stub marker or a/** */Javadoc-style block), and that the "never invent / preserve Javadoc" rule covers class/member Javadoc only — not the copyright header.xtend-gen/is absent: it is gitignored and missing in a fresh checkout. Add an explicit fallback — build the module, or read a pre-converted reference.java— and forbid writing Java from the.xtendsource alone.Docs-only; touches 5 files under
