OneShot
Use this for one narrow implementation task. Optimize for the shortest reliable path to a working, verified change.
Workflow
1. Scope
Identify the exact target and likely files with rg / rg --files.
Read only the files needed to edit safely, usually 2-5 plus nearby examples.
Look up docs only when API, version, or current behavior may be stale.
2. Implement
Edit as soon as the existing pattern is clear.
Keep the diff minimal and local to the request.
Do not refactor, rename, redesign, rewrite docs, or clean adjacent code unless required.
Prefer existing helpers, conventions, and package scripts.
3. Validate
Run the smallest meaningful checks: targeted tests, touched-package lint/typecheck, and formatter when expected.
If a check fails, fix only failures caused by this change and rerun.
Run broader checks only for shared/high-risk code or when the user asks.
Stop Rules
Do not expand into adjacent improvements.
Ask only when a missing decision blocks safe implementation.
If blocked after two concrete attempts, report the blocker, evidence, and the next exact option.
Final Response
Report changed files, validation commands/results, and any skipped checks with reason.
