Use when improving code structure without changing behavior. Ensures each refactoring step preserves all existing tests.

Based on SOC occupation classification
Use when evaluating whether a proposed change fits the existing architecture. Prevents layer violations, dependency cycles, and accidental coupling.
Use when the user wants a code review instead of implementation. Prioritizes correctness bugs, behavioral regressions, missing tests, and risky assumptions.
Use when reviewing documentation for accuracy, completeness, and alignment with source code. Catches doc-code drift before it confuses readers.
Use when making changes that should be committed. Enforces atomic commits, meaningful messages, and clean history.
Use when investigating slow execution, high memory usage, or excessive token consumption. Systematic measurement before optimization.
Use when reviewing code for security vulnerabilities. Covers prompt injection, path traversal, command injection, and agent-specific attack vectors.

Refactoring changes structure, not behavior. If any test breaks, you changed behavior. Stop and revert.
Each refactoring step follows this sequence:
Do NOT combine multiple refactoring steps in one commit.
