Use when designing, building, or reviewing REST/GraphQL APIs โ covers endpoint design, error handling, versioning, authentication, and documentation
Use when containerizing applications, writing Dockerfiles, creating docker-compose configs, or setting up CI/CD deployment pipelines
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 you have an implementation plan to execute, or when facing 2+ independent tasks/bugs โ supports sequential execution, parallel dispatch (if available), and single-agent fallback
Use when reviewing code for security issues, handling secrets, setting up authentication, auditing dependencies, or before deploying to production
Use when about to claim work is complete, fixed, or passing, before committing or creating PRs - requires running verification commands and confirming output before making any success claims; evidence before assertions always
You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.
