-**When to use this tool:**
-1. BEFORE code changes: When establishing NEW conventions
-   - User requests a style/approach change (e.g., "use CSS Modules instead of Tailwind")
-   - Choosing between multiple approaches (e.g., state management libraries)
-   - Setting up new architectural patterns or folder structures
-   - Workflow: update_ai_readme \u2192 get_context_for_file \u2192 Write/Edit
-
-2. AFTER code changes: When documenting discovered patterns
-   - Found consistent patterns in existing code
-   - Identified team conventions from code review
-   - Workflow: Write/Edit \u2192 update_ai_readme
-
-**Example scenarios:**
-- User: "Use CSS Modules instead of Tailwind" \u2192 Update AI_README first, then modify code
-- User: "Add error handling to API calls" \u2192 Code first, document pattern after if it's new
