Pre-release editorial sweep — make sure README, docs, CHANGELOG, and version metadata reflect what actually shipped before tagging.
Quick UX smoke test — drive the cockpit (or a REST route) you just built and see how it feels as a practitioner
Structured implementation with mandatory checkpoints and psychological safety — stop early rather than deliver incomplete work
Take a single independently-mergeable task end-to-end as one parallel lane — worktree, refine, implement, lane-smoke, PR. Invoke once per task. Launch N concurrently via the Agent tool with isolation:worktree.
Pre-implementation exploration — surface conflicts between spec, codebase, and reality before committing to an approach
Turn a design document into an executable Jira epic — phase issues, acceptance criteria, dependency relations, following project conventions
Collaborative exploration of a product idea — think it through, check feasibility against the codebase, produce a design document draft
