-## Why CTX 2.3?
-
-| Feature | Before | CTX 2.3 |
-|---------|--------|---------|
-| Requirements | Ad-hoc goals | **PRD.json with stories** |
-| Design | Manual workflow | **Full design system** |
-| Accessibility | Manual checks | **WCAG 2.2 AA + EAA 2025** |
-| Tokens | Custom formats | **W3C Design Tokens** |
-| Verification | Task-based | **Acceptance criteria** |
-| Commands | 12-27 | **8** (organized) |
-| Router | Manual | **Smart (auto-routing)** |
-| Debug | Manual | **Loop until 100% fixed** |
-| Browser Verify | No | **Playwright/DevTools** |
-| Planning | Any size | **Atomic (2-3 tasks max)** |
-| Resume cost | ~50k tokens | **~2.5k tokens** |
+---
 
 ## Quick Start
 
 ```
-1. /ctx init           Gather ALL info upfront (requirements + credentials)
-2. /ctx                Autonomous execution with minimal interruption
-3. /ctx pause          Checkpoint when needed
+1. /ctx init           Gather requirements + credentials + design context
+2. /ctx map            Build repository map (existing codebases)
+3. /ctx                Autonomous execution with minimal interruption
 ```
 
 **The Flow:**
 ```
-/ctx init → Gather everything → /ctx → Autonomous loop → Delivered!
+/ctx init → /ctx map → /ctx → Autonomous loop → Delivered!
+```
+
+---
+
+## New in 3.1
+
+### Intelligent Task Parallelization
+Tasks without dependencies run simultaneously:
+```
+Wave 1: [T001, T003] → Parallel (no deps)
+Wave 2: [T002]       → After T001
+Wave 3: [T004]       → After T002
+
+Result: 40% faster execution
+```
+
+### Pre-Commit Review (ctx-reviewer)
+Catches errors BEFORE they're committed:
+- Type errors (TypeScript, Python, Go)
+- Unresolved imports
+- Circular dependencies
+- Security vulnerabilities
+- Empty catch blocks, console.logs
+
+```
+[CTX] Pre-Commit Review
+  ✅ Types: Pass
+  ✅ Imports: Pass
+  ⚠️  Medium: 2 console.log statements
+  ❌ Critical: SQL injection risk at line 45
+
+Status: BLOCKED - Fix critical issue
+```
+
+### Acceptance Criteria Auto-Generation
+AI suggests comprehensive criteria:
+```
+Story: "Add user authentication"
+
+Suggested Criteria:
+  ✓ User can register with email/password
+  ✓ Invalid credentials show error
+  ✓ Passwords hashed with bcrypt
+  ✓ Session expires after 24h
+  ✓ Brute force protection enabled
+
+[A] Accept all  [B] See more  [C] Edit
+```
+
+### Smart Context Handoff
+Seamless transitions at context limits:
+
+| Threshold | Action |
+|-----------|--------|
+| 40% | Prepare handoff notes |
+| 50% | Write HANDOFF.md, warn |
+| 60% | Spawn fresh agent |
+
+Zero information loss. Work continues automatically.
+
+### Issue Tracker Integration
+Sync with Linear, Jira, or GitHub Issues:
+```bash
+/ctx integrate linear    # Setup Linear
+/ctx integrate jira      # Setup Jira
+/ctx integrate github    # Setup GitHub Issues
+/ctx integrate --sync    # Force sync all stories
+```
+
+Features:
+- Bidirectional story sync
+- Status mapping (CTX → tracker)
+- Auto-close on verify pass
+- Comment on verify fail
+
+---
+
+## From 3.0
+
+### Repository Mapping (like Aider)
+```bash
+/ctx map                 # Build token-optimized codebase map
+/ctx map --expand        # Include call graph (8k tokens)
+/ctx map --refresh       # Force full rebuild
 ```
 
-## Front-Loaded Approach
+Creates `REPO-MAP.md` with symbols, dependencies, and navigation hints.
 
-CTX gathers EVERYTHING at initialization:
-- **Requirements** → PRD.json stories
-- **Acceptance criteria** → How to verify each story
-- **Test credentials** → .ctx/.env (gitignored)
-- **Constitution** → Rules for autonomous decisions
-- **Design context** → Brand personality, inspirations, accessibility needs
+### Discussion Phase (like GSD)
+```bash
+/ctx discuss S001        # Capture decisions BEFORE planning
+/ctx discuss --review    # Review locked decisions
+```
 
-Then executes autonomously:
-- Only interrupts for architecture decisions (Rule 4)
-- Only interrupts for design approvals at gates
-- Uses stored credentials for browser testing
-- Loops through stories until all pass
+Prevents mid-implementation questions by locking decisions in `CONTEXT.md`.
 
-## Design System (New in 2.3)
+### Model Profiles (Cost Optimization)
+```bash
+/ctx profile             # Show current profile
+/ctx profile quality     # Best models (Opus everywhere)
+/ctx profile balanced    # Smart mix (default)
+/ctx profile budget      # Fast models (60% savings)
+```
 
-CTX handles visual work with dedicated agents and approval gates.
+| Profile | Research | Execute | Verify | Cost |
+|---------|----------|---------|--------|------|
+| quality | Opus | Opus | Sonnet | 3x |
+| balanced | Opus | Sonnet | Haiku | 1x |
+| budget | Sonnet | Sonnet | Haiku | 0.4x |
 
-### Story Types
-| Type | Agent | Purpose |
-|------|-------|---------|
-| feature | ctx-executor | Standard implementation |
-| brand | ctx-designer | BRAND_KIT.md + W3C tokens |
-| design | ctx-designer | UI components/pages |
+### Git-Native Workflow
+Every completed task auto-commits:
+```
+[CTX] Implement user login endpoint
 
-### 3 Options Pattern
-All design decisions present three options:
-- **Option A**: Conservative (safe, proven)
-- **Option B**: Balanced (recommended)
-- **Option C**: Bold (distinctive)
+Story: S001 - User Authentication
+Criteria: User can log in with credentials
+Files: src/auth/login.ts, src/routes/auth.ts
 
-### Design Approval Gates
+Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
 ```
-Mood Board → Direction (A/B/C) → Prototype → Final
+
+Configure in `.ctx/config.json`:
+```json
+{
+  "git": {
+    "autoCommit": true,
+    "commitPerTask": true
+  }
+}
 ```
-Each gate requires user approval before proceeding.
 
-### WCAG 2.2 AA + EAA 2025
-| Criterion | Requirement |
-|-----------|-------------|
-| 2.4.11 | Focus not obscured |
-| 2.5.7 | Drag alternatives |
-| 2.5.8 | 24x24px targets |
-| 3.3.8 | Accessible auth |
+### Persistent Debug State
+Debug sessions survive context resets:
+```bash
+/ctx debug --resume      # Continue previous session
+```
 
-EU markets require EAA 2025 compliance (enforcement: June 28, 2025).
+State stored in `.ctx/debug/sessions/`:
+- `STATE.json` - Machine-readable progress
+- `TRACE.md` - Human-readable log
+- `hypotheses.json` - All theories tested
+- `screenshots/` - Visual evidence
 
-## The 8 Commands
+### Parallel Codebase Analysis
+```bash
+/ctx map-codebase        # Full analysis with 4 parallel agents
+```
+
+Spawns 4 agents simultaneously:
+| Agent | Output | Analyzes |
+|-------|--------|----------|
+| TECH | TECH.md | Languages, frameworks, dependencies |
+| ARCH | ARCH.md | Patterns, data flow, modules |
+| QUALITY | QUALITY.md | Test coverage, lint, type safety |
+| CONCERNS | CONCERNS.md | Security, tech debt, performance |
+
+Results synthesized into `SUMMARY.md`.

-  2. Form hypothesis
-  3. Apply fix
-  4. Verify (build + tests + browser)
-  5. If fixed → done
-     If not → new hypothesis, try again

-**Browser verification for UI:**
-- Navigates to affected page
-- Checks elements exist
-- Takes screenshot proof
-- Saves to `.ctx/debug/`
-
-## Key Design Principles
-
-### Atomic Planning (2-3 Tasks Max)
-Why? Context degradation is real:
-| Context | Quality |
-|---------|---------|
-| 0-30% | Peak |
-| 30-50% | Good |
-| 50%+ | Degrading |
-
-Big work = multiple phases, not bigger plans.
-
-### 95% Auto-Deviation Handling
-| Trigger | Action |
-|---------|--------|
-| Bug in existing code | Auto-fix |
-| Missing validation | Auto-add |
-| Blocking issue | Auto-fix |
-| Architecture decision | Ask user |
-
-### Three-Level Verification
-1. **Exists** - File on disk?
-2. **Substantive** - Real code, not stub?
-3. **Wired** - Imported and used?
-
-### STATE.md - Single Source of Truth
-~100 lines. Always accurate. Always read first.

-## Secure Credentials (.ctx/.env)
+## Integrations
 
-During `/ctx init`, you'll be asked for test credentials:
+### ArguSeek (Web Research)
+Auto-runs during planning for best practices, security, and patterns.
 
+### ChunkHound (Semantic Code Search)
+Auto-runs during planning for semantic search and pattern detection.
 ```bash
-# .ctx/.env (automatically gitignored)
-APP_URL=http://localhost:3000
-TEST_USER_EMAIL=test@example.com
-TEST_USER_PASSWORD=testpass123
-ADMIN_EMAIL=admin@example.com
-ADMIN_PASSWORD=adminpass123
-API_KEY=your-api-key
+uv tool install chunkhound
 ```
 
-**Why?**
-- Enables autonomous browser verification
-- No interruptions asking "what's the login?"
-- Agents use credentials silently for testing
-- NEVER echoed in logs or committed
+### Browser Verification (Playwright/Chrome DevTools)
+Auto-runs during debugging and verification for visual proof.
+
+### Figma MCP (Design Context)
+Auto-runs during design stories for tokens and component metadata.
+
+### Gemini Design MCP (Visual Generation)
+Auto-runs during design stories for mockups and UI code.
+
+---
+
+## Key Principles
+
+### 95% Auto-Deviation Handling
+
+| Trigger | Action |
+|---------|--------|
+| Bug in existing code | Auto-fix, document in commit |
+| Missing validation | Auto-add, document |
+| Blocking issue | Auto-fix, document |
+| Architecture decision | **Ask user** |
+
+### Three-Level Verification
+
+| Level | Question | Check |
+|-------|----------|-------|
+| Exists | File on disk? | Glob |
+| Substantive | Real code, not stub? | No TODOs, no placeholders |
+| Wired | Imported and used? | Trace imports |
 
-**Security:**
-- `.ctx/.gitignore` automatically protects `.env`
-- Credentials used ONLY for test automation
-- Never hardcoded, always read from .env
+### Atomic Planning
+
+Plans limited to 2-3 tasks to prevent context degradation.
