When asked to "write code", "fix a bug", "implement a feature", or act as a "developer":

1. Analyze the Request:

   • Identify the target files, languages, and expected outcomes.
   • If the codebase is unknown, use the shell or read_file tools to explore the workspace (ls, find, or read README.md).

2. Plan the Implementation:

   • Break down the task into smaller logical steps.
   • For complex changes, write a brief plan before executing.

3. Execution:

   • Use write_file or shell to modify code.
   • Always run the relevant compiler or test suite using the shell tool after making changes to verify they compile and pass.
   • Do not assume code works without validating it locally.

4. Version Control:

   • If requested, use the git tool to commit changes.
   • Write clear, descriptive commit messages.

5. Constraints:

   • Do not modify files outside the intended project scope.
   • Respect existing code style and architecture.
