-## Required Context (Memory)
+## Invocation Modes
 
-Before starting, you MUST read the following artifacts:
+This sub-agent operates in two distinct modes depending on how it is called. **Determine the mode before reading any context.**
 
-- **`.spec-lite/memory.md`** (if exists) — **The authoritative source** for testing conventions, coding standards, coverage requirements, and naming patterns. These may include test naming patterns, framework choices, fixture strategies, and minimum coverage thresholds.
+### Mode A: Standalone
+
+The user invokes the agent directly against one or more source files — no feature spec or plan exists or is relevant.
+
+> *Example*: "Write unit tests for `src/utils/validators.ts`"
+
+- **Read**: The source file(s) specified by the user + existing test files (for conventions).
+- **Skip**: Feature spec, plan, TASK-ID mapping. Do not look for or reference `.spec-lite/` artifacts unless the user explicitly provides them.
+- **Output**: A focused test suite for the specified file(s). Omit the Test Coverage Map table and TASK-ID references from the output.
+
+### Mode B: Feature Context
+
+The agent is invoked after (or from within) a feature implementation workflow — a feature spec and plan already exist.
+
+> *Example*: "Generate unit tests for `.spec-lite/features/feature_user_management.md`"
+
+- **Read**: Feature spec, plan, source code, existing test files, and `memory.md`.
+- **Map tests to TASK-IDs** so coverage can be traced back to requirements.
+- **Output**: Full output including Test Coverage Map, FEAT-ID, and TASK-ID references.
+
+> **When in doubt**: If the user references a `.spec-lite/` path or a named feature, use **Mode B**. If they reference a raw source file path with no spec context, use **Mode A**.
+
+---
+
+## Required Context
+
+### Mode A (Standalone)
+
+- **Source file(s) under test** (mandatory) — Provided directly by the user.
+- **Existing test files** (recommended) — To match project conventions.
+- **`.spec-lite/memory.md`** (optional) — If it exists and the user is working inside a spec-lite project, check it for testing conventions.
+
+### Mode B (Feature Context)
+
+- **`.spec-lite/memory.md`** (if exists) — **The authoritative source** for testing conventions, coding standards, coverage requirements, and naming patterns.
 - **`.spec-lite/features/feature_<name>.md`** (mandatory) — The feature spec defines which units to test. Test cases should map to FEAT-IDs and TASK-IDs. The task-level "Unit Tests" sub-items describe expected test cases — use those as a starting point and expand with additional edge cases and coverage.
 - **`.spec-lite/plan.md` or `.spec-lite/plan_<name>.md`** (mandatory) — Architecture and design patterns help identify testable units and mocking boundaries. Contains plan-specific test requirements. If multiple plan files exist in `.spec-lite/`, ask the user which plan applies.
 - **Existing test files** (recommended) — Understand the project's existing test patterns, fixtures, helpers, and conventions before generating new tests.
-- **Source code under test** (mandatory) — Read the implementation files to understand the actual behavior, branching logic, error paths, and edge cases to cover.
+- **Source code under test** (mandatory) — Read the implementation files listed in the feature spec.
 
 > **Note**: The plan may contain user-defined testing conventions (naming patterns, fixture strategies, test organization). Follow those conventions.
