Before touching the code, check what the team already knows.

- [decisions/ADR-023-rate-limit.md] Current rate limit is token-bucket at Redis, 100/min per user
- [services/api.md] /api/v2/checkout is owned by @alice, SLA 99.9%

Use ast-grep for structural (AST-aware) code search and refactoring instead of plain ripgrep when the intent depends on code structure — not just text matching. Triggers on refactors, codemods, "find all X that don't Y", or any search where naive grep would miss edge cases.
Guides proactive /compact usage with preservation instructions to prevent context rot in long Cascade sessions. Triggers when context reaches ~50% of window, before large tool outputs, or when the user mentions "context", "compact", "drift", or "forgetting".
Use when any non-trivial task (>20 LOC or >1 file) would otherwise be done without a persistent plan. Produces and maintains a markdown plan file that survives session compaction and restarts. Based on the Manus-style planning pattern popularized by OthmanAdi/planning-with-files (18.4k⭐).
Turn a feature branch into a clean, reviewable PR. Squash WIP commits, polish messages, verify green checks, draft PR description. Invoke right before opening a PR.
Scan a diff, branch, or working tree for leaked secrets, API keys, tokens, private keys, and PII before commit. Blocks the operation on CRITICAL findings, warns on MEDIUM. Pairs with the pre_commit hook.
Fill test coverage gaps to hit the project's target (AGENTS.md says ≥80% on src/). Reads existing tests to match style, prioritizes public-API and error paths, runs the suite after every batch.
