+# Usage Guide
+
+Common workflows and command patterns for kodrdriv.
+
+## Daily Workflows
+
+### Basic Commit Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Make changes
+# ... edit files ...
+
+# Stage changes
+git add .
+
+# Generate and commit
+kodrdriv commit --sendit
+```
+
+**With review**:
+```bash
+kodrdriv commit --interactive
+# → Review message
+# → Edit if needed
+# → Confirm to commit
+```
+
+### Release Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Generate release notes
+kodrdriv release
+
+# Review output
+cat output/RELEASE_NOTES.md
+
+# If satisfied, create release
+gh release create v1.0.0 --notes-file output/RELEASE_NOTES.md
+```
+
+**Automated**:
+```bash
+# Does everything: notes, PR, merge, tag, release
+kodrdriv publish
+```
+
+### Review Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Analyze review notes
+kodrdriv review "Need to refactor auth module for better testability"
+
+# Creates GitHub issues automatically
+kodrdriv review --sendit < review-notes.txt
+```
+
+## Advanced Workflows
+
+### Using Context Files
+
+Pass documentation for better context:
+
+```bash
+# For commits
+kodrdriv commit \
+  --context-files docs/ARCHITECTURE.md \
+  --sendit
+
+# For releases
+kodrdriv release \
+  --context-files IMPLEMENTATION.md BREAKING-CHANGES.md \
+  --interactive
+
+# Multiple files combined
+kodrdriv release \
+  --context-files $(find docs -name "*.md") \
+  --self-reflection
+```
+
+### Self-Reflection Analysis
+
+Generate detailed reports about AI analysis:
+
+```bash
+# Enable self-reflection
+kodrdriv commit --self-reflection
+
+# Check the report
+cat output/agentic-reflection-commit-*.md
+```
+
+**Report includes**:
+- Tools used and their effectiveness
+- Execution timeline
+- Performance metrics
+- Conversation history
+- Recommendations for improvement
+
+### Split Commit Suggestions
+
+Let AI suggest splitting complex changes:
+
+```bash
+kodrdriv commit \
+  --allow-commit-splitting \
+  --self-reflection
+
+# AI may suggest:
+# Split 1: Authentication changes
+# Split 2: Database migration
+# Split 3: Documentation updates
+```
+
+### Interactive Refinement
+
+Review and improve AI output:
+
+```bash
+# Interactive mode
+kodrdriv commit --interactive
+# → Review message
+# → Edit manually or
+# → Improve with AI feedback
+# → Confirm
+
+kodrdriv release --interactive
+# → Review notes
+# → Edit or improve
+# → Accept or cancel
+```
+
+## Monorepo Workflows
+
+### Link Packages for Development
+
+```bash
+# Link all packages
+kodrdriv tree link
+
+# Work on code...
+
+# Unlink when done
+kodrdriv tree unlink
+```
+
+### Multi-Package Operations
+
+```bash
+# Run precommit checks across all packages
+kodrdriv tree precommit
+
+# Commit all packages
+kodrdriv tree commit
+
+# Publish in dependency order
+kodrdriv tree publish --parallel
+```
+
+### Selective Operations
+
+```bash
+# Start from specific package
+kodrdriv tree publish --start-from @myorg/core
+
+# Stop before specific package
+kodrdriv tree publish --stop-at @myorg/ui
+
+# Skip packages
+kodrdriv tree publish --skip @myorg/experimental
+
+# Resume after failure
+kodrdriv tree publish --continue
+```
+
+## Audio-Driven Workflows
+
+### Setup (One-Time)
+
+```bash
+# Configure microphone
+kodrdriv select-audio
+```
+
+### Voice Commits
+
+```bash
+# Record audio describing changes
+kodrdriv audio-commit
+# → Records audio
+# → Transcribes with Whisper
+# → Generates commit message
+# → Optionally commits
+```
+
+### Voice Reviews
+
+```bash
+# Record review notes
+kodrdriv audio-review --sendit
+# → Records audio
+# → Transcribes
+# → Analyzes for issues
+# → Creates GitHub issues
+```
+
+### Audio from File
+
+```bash
+# Use pre-recorded audio
+kodrdriv audio-commit --file recording.m4a
+
+# Process directory of recordings
+kodrdriv audio-review --directory recordings/
+```
+
+## Configuration Workflows
+
+### Project-Specific Prompts
+
+Create custom prompts in `.kodrdriv/`:
+
+```bash
+# Create directory
+mkdir -p .kodrdriv/personas
+
+# Add custom persona
+cat > .kodrdriv/personas/committer.md << 'EOF'
+You are a senior engineer who writes concise, technical commit messages.
+Focus on the "why" behind changes, not just the "what".
+EOF
+
+# Use with overrides
+kodrdriv commit --overrides
+```
+
+### Per-Command Configuration
+
+```yaml
+# .kodrdriv/config.yaml
+commit:
+  model: gpt-4o-mini      # Fast, cheap for commits
+  maxAgenticIterations: 8
+
+release:
+  model: gpt-4o            # Better quality for releases
+  maxAgenticIterations: 35
+  selfReflection: true
+
+review:
+  model: gpt-4o
+  includeCommitHistory: true
+```
+
+### Environment-Based Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Development
+export KODRDRIV_CONFIG=.kodrdriv/config.dev.yaml
+kodrdriv commit
+
+# Production
+export KODRDRIV_CONFIG=.kodrdriv/config.prod.yaml
+kodrdriv publish
+```
+
+## Integration Examples
+
+### Example 1: Feature Branch Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Create feature branch
+git checkout -b feature/user-auth
+
+# Work and commit frequently
+# ... make changes ...
+kodrdriv commit --sendit
+
+# ... more changes ...
+kodrdriv commit --sendit
+
+# Ready for PR
+git push origin feature/user-auth
+
+# Generate comprehensive release notes for PR description
+kodrdriv release --from main --to feature/user-auth
+```
+
+### Example 2: Release Workflow
+
+```bash
+# On main branch, ready to release
+git checkout main
+git pull
+
+# Generate release notes
+kodrdriv release --context-files CHANGELOG.md
+
+# Review
+cat output/RELEASE_NOTES.md
+
+# If good, publish
+kodrdriv publish
+# → Creates PR
+# → Waits for checks
+# → Merges
+# → Tags
+# → Creates GitHub release
+# → Bumps version
+```
+
+### Example 3: Hotfix Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Create hotfix branch
+git checkout -b hotfix/security-patch main
+
+# Make fix
+# ... edit files ...
+
+# Quick commit
+kodrdriv commit --sendit --max-agentic-iterations 5
+
+# Fast release
+kodrdriv publish --sendit
+```
+
+### Example 4: Monorepo Release
+
+```bash
+# Link packages for development
+kodrdriv tree link
+
+# Make changes across packages
+# ... edit multiple packages ...
+
+# Run checks
+kodrdriv tree precommit
+
+# Publish all updated packages
+kodrdriv tree publish \
+  --parallel \
+  --max-concurrency 3 \
+  --context-files MIGRATION-GUIDE.md
+```
+
+## Debugging Workflows
+
+### Verbose Logging
+
+```bash
+# See what's happening
+kodrdriv commit --verbose
+
+# Even more detail
+kodrdriv commit --debug
+
+# Save debug output
+kodrdriv commit --debug 2>&1 | tee debug.log
+```
+
+### Debug AI Interactions
+
+```bash
+# Enable debug files
+kodrdriv commit --debug
+
+# Check generated files
+ls output/
+# request-*.json - What was sent to OpenAI
+# response-*.json - What came back
+```
+
+### Test Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Verify config merging
+kodrdriv --check-config --verbose
+
+# Test specific command config
+kodrdriv commit --dry-run --verbose
+
+# Check all merged options
+kodrdriv --check-config | grep -A 50 commit
+```
+
+## Optimization Workflows
+
+### Cost Optimization
+
+```bash
+# Use cheaper model for simple tasks
+kodrdriv commit --model gpt-4o-mini
+
+# Reduce iterations for speed
+kodrdriv commit --max-agentic-iterations 5
+
+# Configure in yaml for permanent change
+```
+
+**Cost comparison**:
+- gpt-4o-mini: $0.15 / 1M input tokens
+- gpt-4o: $2.50 / 1M input tokens
+- ~17x cheaper for simple commits
+
+### Speed Optimization
+
+```bash
+# Reduce context
+kodrdriv commit --message-limit 5
+
+# Smaller diffs
+kodrdriv commit --max-diff-bytes 10240
+
+# Fewer iterations
+kodrdriv commit --max-agentic-iterations 6
+```
+
+### Quality Optimization
+
+```bash
+# More iterations for complex changes
+kodrdriv release --max-agentic-iterations 50
+
+# Better model
+kodrdriv release --model gpt-4o
+
+# Rich context
+kodrdriv release \
+  --context-files docs/*.md \
+  --self-reflection
+```
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Pattern: Commit Often, Release Weekly
+
+```bash
+# Daily: Quick commits
+kodrdriv commit --sendit
+
+# Friday: Weekly release
+kodrdriv release --context-files WEEKLY-SUMMARY.md
+kodrdriv publish
+```
+
+### Pattern: Feature Branches with Context
+
+```bash
+# Document your feature
+echo "## Implementation Notes" > FEATURE-NOTES.md
+# ... document as you work ...
+
+# Commit with context
+kodrdriv commit --context-files FEATURE-NOTES.md --sendit
+
+# Release with context
+kodrdriv release --context-files FEATURE-NOTES.md
+```
+
+### Pattern: Automated CI/CD
+
+```yaml
+# .github/workflows/release.yml
+- name: Auto-Release
+  run: |
+    kodrdriv publish --sendit --self-reflection
+  env:
+    OPENAI_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}
+    GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+### Pattern: Manual Approval Gates
+
+```bash
+# Generate but don't commit
+kodrdriv commit > commit-msg.txt
+
+# Review
+cat commit-msg.txt
+
+# Commit manually if approved
+git commit -F commit-msg.txt
+```
+
+## Tips & Best Practices
+
+### 1. Use Dry Run First
+
+Always preview before making changes:
+```bash
+kodrdriv commit --dry-run
+kodrdriv publish --dry-run
+```
+
+### 2. Enable Self-Reflection
+
+Improve AI quality over time:
+```bash
+kodrdriv commit --self-reflection
+# Review reports to understand AI decision-making
+```
+
+### 3. Pass Context Files
+
+For complex changes, provide context:
+```bash
+kodrdriv release --context-files \
+  IMPLEMENTATION.md \
+  ARCHITECTURE.md \
+  BREAKING-CHANGES.md
+```
+
+### 4. Use Interactive Mode
+
+Review and refine before committing:
+```bash
+kodrdriv commit --interactive
+kodrdriv release --interactive
+```
+
+### 5. Configure Per-Project
+
+Different projects have different needs:
+```yaml
+# API project - focus on breaking changes
+release:
+  focus: "API changes and breaking changes"
+
+# Library project - focus on features
+release:
+  focus: "new features and performance improvements"
+
+# Internal tool - be concise
+commit:
+  maxAgenticIterations: 6
+```
