+## Code Conventions
 
-### Design Mode
+When making changes, first understand the file's code conventions:
 
-**Enter when:**
-- Requirements unclear
-- Architecture decision needed
-- Multiple solution approaches exist
-- Significant refactor planned
-- **ANY knowledge gap exists** (unfamiliar code, unclear context)
-
-**Do:**
-- **Investigate first**: Grep/Read to understand existing patterns
-- **Find references**: Locate 2-3 similar implementations in codebase
-- **Map dependencies**: Identify all files that will be affected
-- Research existing patterns
-- Sketch data flow and boundaries
-- Document key decisions
-- Identify trade-offs
-
-**Mandatory research before exiting:**
-- [ ] Read existing related code
-- [ ] Found similar patterns to follow
-- [ ] Know all files to modify
-- [ ] Understand why current code is structured this way
-
-**Exit when:** Full context gathered + clear implementation plan (solution describable in <3 sentences) + relevant docs updated
+- **Mimic code style**: Match naming, formatting, typing patterns of surrounding code
+- **Verify dependencies**: NEVER assume a library is available — check `package.json`, `Cargo.toml`, `go.mod` first
+- **Check neighboring files**: Look at imports, framework choices, patterns before writing new code
+- **New components**: Look at existing components first — framework, naming, typing, patterns
+- **Security**: Never expose, log, or commit secrets and keys

-### Implementation Mode
+## Research First
 
-**Enter when:**
-- Design complete
-- Requirements clear
-- Adding new feature
-- **Have Read/Grep results in context** (proof of research)
+**Before writing ANY code, verify you have context.**
 
-**Gate check before implementing:**
+**Gate check:**
 - ✅ Have I read the relevant existing code?
 - ✅ Do I know the patterns used in this codebase?
 - ✅ Can I list all files I'll modify?
-- If any ❌ → Return to Design Mode

-- Write test first (TDD when applicable)
-- Implement minimal solution
-- Run tests → verify pass

-## Versioning
-
-`patch`: Bug fixes (0.0.x)
-`minor`: New features, no breaks (0.x.0) — **primary increment**
-`major`: Breaking changes ONLY (x.0.0) — exceptional
-
-Default to minor. Major is reserved.
-
----
-
-## TypeScript Release
-
-Use `changeset` for versioning. CI handles releases.
-Monitor: `gh run list --workflow=release`, `gh run watch`
-
-Never manual `npm publish`.
+## Git Workflow
 
----
+**Commit immediately** after each logical unit of work. Don't batch. Don't wait.
 
-## Git Workflow
+**Commit triggers**: Feature added, bug fixed, config changed, refactor done, docs updated.
 
 **Branches**: `{type}/{description}` (e.g., `feat/user-auth`, `fix/login-bug`)
 
 **Commits**: `<type>(<scope>): <description>` (e.g., `feat(auth): add JWT validation`)
+
 Types: feat, fix, docs, refactor, test, chore
 
-**Atomic commits**: One logical change per commit. Commit immediately after each change. Don't batch multiple changes.
+**Atomic commits**: One logical change per commit.
 
 <example>
 ✅ Edit file → Commit → Edit next file → Commit
-❌ Edit file → Edit next file → Edit another → Commit all together
-❌ Edit file → Wait for user to say "commit" → Commit
+❌ Edit multiple files → Commit all together
+❌ Wait for user to say "commit"
 </example>
 
-<example>
-✅ git commit -m "feat(auth): add JWT validation"
-❌ git commit -m "WIP" or "fixes"

-**File handling**: Scratch work → `/tmp` (Unix) or `%TEMP%` (Windows). Deliverables → working directory or user-specified.

 ## Style Guidelines
 
-**Headings**: Clear, specific. Sentence case. Front-load key terms.
+**Structure:**
+- Headings: Clear, specific, sentence case (✅ "Creating a User" not "User Stuff")
+- Code examples: Include imports/setup, show output, test before publishing
+- Paragraphs: 3-4 sentences max
+- Lists: Use for 3+ related items
 
-<example>
-✅ "Creating a User" (not "User Stuff")
-✅ "Authentication with JWT" (not "Auth")
-</example>
+**Tone:**
+- Active voice, second person, present tense
+- ✅ "Use X" not "might want to consider"
+- ✅ "Returns" not "will return"
 
-**Code Examples**: Include context (imports, setup). Show expected output. Test before publishing.
+**Formatting:**
+- `code` in backticks
+- **bold** new terms on first use
+- Define jargon inline
 
-<example>
-✅ Good example:
+**Code Example Format:**
 ```typescript
 import { createUser } from './auth'
 
-// Create a new user with email validation
+// Create with email validation
 const user = await createUser({
   email: 'user@example.com',
   password: 'secure-password'
 })
-// Returns: { id: '123', email: 'user@example.com', createdAt: Date }
+// Returns: { id: '123', email: 'user@example.com' }
 ```
 
-❌ Bad example:
-```typescript
-createUser(email, password)
-```
-</example>
-
-**Tone**: Direct and active voice. Second person ("You can..."). Present tense. No unnecessary hedging.
-
-<example>
-✅ "Use X" (not "might want to consider")
-✅ "Create" (not "can be created")
-✅ "Returns" (not "will return")
-</example>
-
-**Formatting**: Code terms in backticks. Important terms **bold** on first use. Lists for 3+ related items.

+**Input Validation**: Validate at boundaries. Whitelist > blacklist. Use schema validation (Zod).

-
-**Data Protection**: Never log: passwords, tokens, API keys, PII. Encrypt sensitive data at rest. HTTPS only. Secure cookie flags (httpOnly, secure, sameSite).

-**Expected Failures**: Result types or explicit exceptions. Never throw for control flow.
+**At Boundaries**: Catch and transform to Result types or domain errors.

+## LLM Era Principles
+
+### No Workaround (Zero Tolerance)
+
+Proper fix = same time as workaround. Workaround is laziness.
+
+- Bug → Fix root cause
+- Architecture issue → Refactor
+- Edge case → Handle
+- "Temporary" → Do permanent directly
+- Tech debt → Clear immediately
+
+### Regeneration Mindset
+
+Regenerate > patch > preserve.
+
+- Rewriting is faster than patching
+- Code is disposable, no attachment
+- Delete freely, regenerate when needed
+- Complex fix? Delete and regenerate from scratch
+
+### Value Hierarchy
+
+**correctness > performance > convenience**
+
+- First make it correct
+- Then make it performant (only if needed, with data)
+- Convenience is bonus, never at cost of correctness
+
+### Boring Technology Default
+
+Proven > Novel. Use boring, battle-tested technology unless novel solves a real problem that proven cannot.
+
+### Parallel Execution with Subagents
+
+When system provides subagent tools:
+- Independent tasks → Delegate to workers in parallel
+- Dependencies exist → Execute sequentially
+- **Always do Final Gate yourself** - Worker outputs are drafts, you own final quality
+

-- **Systematic**: Structured approach. Think → Execute → Reflect.
