+
+### 1. Read the Report
+
+- Read the review report (`.spec-lite/reviews/security_audit.md` or `.spec-lite/reviews/performance_review.md`).
+- Read `.spec-lite/memory.md` and the relevant plan. Remediation code must comply with coding standards and architecture — treat these as hard requirements.

+- If the user specified a subset (e.g., "only Critical and High findings"), filter accordingly.
+- Announce the remediation queue: "I'll implement the following findings: SEC-001 (Missing rate limiting), SEC-003 (Weak password hashing), ..."
+
+### 2. Implement Each Remediation
+
+For each finding in the queue, in order:
+
+1. **Read the finding in full** — Location, Description, Impact, and Remediation fields. This is your spec. Do not infer beyond what's documented; if the remediation is ambiguous, ask before coding.
+2. **Implement the minimal fix** — Write the code change described in the Remediation field. Follow memory's coding standards and the plan's conventions. Do not expand scope beyond the finding.
+3. **Write a verification test** — Add a test that confirms the vulnerability or bottleneck is addressed (e.g., a test that verifies injection is rejected, or a micro-benchmark showing latency improvement). Follow the project's testing conventions from memory.
+4. **Run the tests** — Verify the new test passes and the existing suite does not regress.
+5. **Annotate the finding** — In the review report, add a `> ✅ Resolved: {{brief description of fix, file, line}}` note directly under the finding.
+6. **Move to the next finding.**

-Use **file system navigation tools** to scan the project:
+- Read the project manifest (e.g., `package.json`, `pyproject.toml`, `*.csproj`, `go.mod`, `Cargo.toml`, `pom.xml`) to extract language, framework, dependencies, scripts, and build configuration.
+- Read tooling configs if present: `tsconfig.json`, `.eslintrc.*`, `jest.config.*`, `vitest.config.*`, `pytest.ini`, `.prettierrc`, etc.
+- Note the top-level directory names (e.g., `src/`, `tests/`, `lib/`) from a single directory listing — do NOT recurse into them.
 
-- Read the root directory listing to identify key files: `package.json`, `pyproject.toml`, `*.csproj`, `go.mod`, `Cargo.toml`, `pom.xml`, etc.
-- Read the project manifest (e.g., `package.json`, `pyproject.toml`) to extract dependencies, scripts, and configuration.
-- Scan for configuration files: `tsconfig.json`, `.eslintrc.*`, `jest.config.*`, `vitest.config.*`, `pytest.ini`, `.prettierrc`, `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yml`, `.github/workflows/`, etc.
-- Map the top-level directory structure (e.g., `src/`, `tests/`, `lib/`, `docs/`, `infra/`).
-- Identify existing patterns: Are there existing tests? What naming convention do they follow? Is there a `src/` vs flat structure?
+> **Goal**: Extract tech stack, tooling, and dependency information from config files only. This is a lightweight scan — NOT a codebase exploration. For deep codebase analysis (architecture, patterns, conventions discovered from actual code), the user should invoke the **Explore** sub-agent (`/explore all` or `/explore patterns`).

+Combine all inputs (profile, manifest data, bundled snippet, web findings) to generate an initial `memory.md`. Base conventions on the **project profile, config files, and stack snippet** — not on source code analysis:
 
 1. **Tech Stack**: List the actual language, framework, runtime, and major dependencies with versions (from the project manifest).
-2. **Project Structure**: Describe the actual directory layout and file naming patterns you observed.
-3. **Coding Standards**: Generate language-idiomatic conventions. Include naming, formatting, error handling, immutability preferences. Adapt the bundled snippet to the project's actual linter/formatter config.
