Based on SOC occupation classification
Use before any DevOps build, change, or new feature — refine requirements through dialogue before touching infrastructure or code
Use when working with Docker — building images, writing Dockerfiles, debugging container issues
Use to execute a written implementation plan via subagents with review checkpoints
Use when implementation is complete, all tests pass, and you need to decide how to integrate the work - guides completion of development work by presenting structured options for merge, PR, or cleanup
Use when working with Kubernetes or Helm — authoring, reviewing, hardening, or debugging manifests, Deployments, Services, Ingress, RBAC, NetworkPolicy, or cluster operations
Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation
