+- 156db14: Optimize rules and agents with MEP principles
+
+  - Optimized core.md: removed duplicates, agent-specific content (222→91 lines, -59%)
+  - Optimized code-standards.md: removed duplicates, kept unique technical content (288→230 lines, -20%)
+  - Optimized workspace.md: applied MEP, added drift resolution (317→265 lines, -16%)
+  - Optimized coder.md: added Git workflow section (157→169 lines)
+  - Optimized orchestrator.md: condensed orchestration flow (151→120 lines, -21%)
+  - Optimized reviewer.md: condensed review modes and output format (161→128 lines, -20%)
+  - Optimized writer.md: condensed writing modes (174→122 lines, -30%)
+
+  Overall reduction: 1,470→1,125 lines (-23%)
+
+  All files now follow MEP (Minimal Effective Prompt) principles: concise, direct, trigger-based, no step-by-step, no WHY explanations.

-## Cognitive Framework
-
-### Understanding Depth
-- **Shallow OK**: Well-defined, low-risk, established patterns → Implement
-- **Deep required**: Ambiguous, high-risk, novel, irreversible → Investigate first
-
-### Complexity Navigation
-- **Mechanical**: Known patterns → Execute fast

-### State Awareness

-## Principles
-
-### Programming
-
-**Pure functions default**: No mutations, no global state, no I/O.
-Side effects isolated: `// SIDE EFFECT: writes to disk`
-
-**3+ params → named args**: `fn({ a, b, c })` not `fn(a, b, c)`
-
-**Composition over inheritance**: Max 1 inheritance level.
-
-**Declarative over imperative**: Express what you want, not how.
-
-**Event-driven when appropriate**: Decouple components through events/messages.

-### Quality
-
-**YAGNI**: Build what's needed now, not hypothetical futures.

-**KISS**: Simple > complex.
-Solution needs >3 sentences to explain → find simpler approach.

-**DRY**: Copying 2nd time → mark for extraction. 3rd time → extract immediately.

-**Single Responsibility**: One reason to change per module.
-File does multiple things → split.
-
-**Dependency inversion**: Depend on abstractions, not implementations.
-
----
-
-## Technical Standards
-
-**Code Quality**: Self-documenting names, test critical paths (100%) and business logic (80%+), comments explain WHY not WHAT, make illegal states unrepresentable.
-
-**Testing**: Every module needs `.test.ts` and `.bench.ts`.
-Write tests with implementation. Run after every change. Coverage ≥80%.
-Skip tests → bugs in production.
-
-**Security**: Validate inputs at boundaries, never log sensitive data, secure defaults (auth required, deny by default), follow OWASP API Security, rollback plan for risky changes.
-
-**API Design**: On-demand data, field selection, cursor pagination.
-
-**Error Handling**: Handle explicitly at boundaries, use Result/Either for expected failures, never mask failures, log with context, actionable messages.
-
-**Refactoring**: Extract on 3rd duplication, when function >20 lines or cognitive load high. Thinking "I'll clean later" → Clean NOW. Adding TODO → Implement NOW.
-
-**Proactive Cleanup**: Before every commit:
-
-Organize imports, remove unused code/imports/commented code/debug statements.
-Update or delete outdated docs/comments/configs. Fix discovered tech debt.
-
-**Prime directive: Never accumulate misleading artifacts.**
-Unsure whether to delete → delete it. Git remembers everything.

 ## High-Stakes Decisions
 
-Use structured reasoning only for high-stakes decisions. Most decisions: decide autonomously without explanation.
+Most decisions: decide autonomously without explanation. Use structured reasoning only for high-stakes decisions.
 
 **When to use**:
-- Decision difficult to reverse (schema changes, architecture choices)
+- Difficult to reverse (schema changes, architecture)
 - Affects >3 major components
 - Security-critical
 - Long-term maintenance impact
 
 **Quick check**: Easy to reverse? → Decide autonomously. Clear best practice? → Follow it.
 
-### Decision Frameworks
-
-- **🎯 First Principles**: Break down to fundamentals, challenge assumptions. *Novel problems without precedent.*
-- **⚖️ Decision Matrix**: Score options against weighted criteria. *3+ options with multiple criteria.*
-- **🔄 Trade-off Analysis**: Compare competing aspects. *Performance vs cost, speed vs quality.*
-
-### Process
-1. Recognize trigger
-2. Choose framework
-3. Analyze decision
-4. Document in commit message or PR description

-## Hygiene
-
-**Version Control**: Feature branches `{type}/{description}`, semantic commits `<type>(<scope>): <description>`, atomic commits.
+**Frameworks**:
+- 🎯 First Principles: Novel problems without precedent
+- ⚖️ Decision Matrix: 3+ options with multiple criteria
+- 🔄 Trade-off Analysis: Performance vs cost, speed vs quality
 
-**File Handling**:
-- Scratch work → System temp directory (/tmp on Unix, %TEMP% on Windows)
-- Final deliverables → Working directory or user-specified location
+Document in ADR, commit message, or PR description.
