Use when user wants to vendor a slice of a library into their project as inline source — copy only the code actually used, trim the rest, keep the ability to re-sync from upstream later. Triggers on phrases like "vendor this library", "copy this lib into my project", "internalize X", "fork just the parts I use", "stop depending on Y but keep the code I need", or user wants to patch a lib locally without losing future upstream changes. Pairs with surgical-github-extraction (one-off small lifts); code-graft handles meaningful slices with a sync manifest.

Use when user references GitHub repo as inspiration, not dependency — phrases like "look at this repo", "borrow from X", "use approach from Y", "implement like Z", or GitHub URL handed in as reference. Prevents clone or install. Fetches raw files to tempdir, lifts minimum useful snippet or concept, adapts to user project style. Output version-independent, dep-free.
