brainstorming

Refines rough ideas through Socratic questioning, explores alternatives, presents design in digestible chunks for validation. Activates before writing any code or making major decisions.

dispatching-parallel-agents

Manages concurrent subagent workflows with task distribution, progress tracking, and result aggregation. Use when multiple independent tasks can run simultaneously.

executing-plans

Executes implementation plans task-by-task with two-stage review (spec compliance, then code quality). Enforces TDD cycle: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR. Activates when user says 'go' or approves plan.

finishing-a-development-branch

Verifies completed work, runs tests, presents merge/PR options, and cleans up worktrees. Activates when all implementation tasks are complete.

receiving-code-review

Responds to code review feedback constructively, implements fixes, and communicates progress. Handles feedback professionally and improves code quality.

requesting-code-review

Reviews code against plan for correctness, bugs, security issues, and adherence to standards. Reports issues by severity. Activates between tasks or before merging.

subagent-driven-development

Dispatches parallel subagents for concurrent task execution with two-stage review (spec compliance + code quality). Activates for large plans (10+ tasks) to maximize throughput.

systematic-debugging

Applies 4-phase root cause analysis: gather data, form hypothesis, test hypothesis, solve and verify. Includes root-cause-tracing, defense-in-depth, and condition-based-waiting techniques. Activates for any bug.

test-driven-development

Enforces RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle: write failing test first, watch it fail, write minimal code to pass, then refactor. Deletes code written before tests. Activates during implementation.

using-git-worktrees

Creates isolated Git worktrees for parallel development on different branches. Prevents context-switching overhead and merge conflicts. Activates when starting new development.

verification-before-completion

Ensures bug fixes and features are truly working before marking as complete. Verifies fix doesn't break other functionality. Activates after any fix or implementation.

writing-plans

Breaks approved designs into actionable implementation tasks. Each task is 2-5 minutes, has exact file paths, complete code, and verification steps. Activates after design approval.

project-workflow

Use when working in this AI coding scaffold repository and you need to understand or execute the current frontend, backend, database, and plan-generation workflow.
