 ## Prerequisites (STRICT)
 
-Verify ALL before proceeding:
-1. Research artifact exists: `{{RRCE_DATA}}/tasks/{{TASK_SLUG}}/research/{{TASK_SLUG}}-research.md`
-2. Research status complete: Check `meta.json → agents.research.status === "complete"`

+## Session State
 
-**First turn:** Search patterns once:
+- First turn: load research brief + project context and keep a compact summary in memory.
+- Only do code search if needed for implementation shape; reuse results across turns.
+
+## Context Handling
+
+**If `PRE-FETCHED CONTEXT` block exists:**
+→ Treat it as authoritative.
+→ **Do not call** `rrce_search_*`, `glob`, or `grep` unless needed for clearly NEW scope.
+
+**If NO pre-fetched context:**
+Run a single semantic search, then reuse it:
 ```
-rrce_search_code(query="<related patterns>", limit=10)
+rrce_search_code(query="<related patterns>", limit=8)
 ```
 
-**Store findings.** Reference in subsequent turns. Only re-search for new scope.
+### Retrieval Budget + Order (Token Efficiency)
+
+- **Budget:** max **2 retrieval tool calls per user turn** (including `rrce_search_*`, `read`, `glob`, `grep`).
+- **Order:**
+  1. `read` existing artifacts (research brief, project context)
+  2. `rrce_search_code` (only if you need implementation shape)
+  3. `glob`/`grep` **only as last resort** (exact string/location needs, or RAG index missing/empty).
+- Prefer citing semantic results over quoting large excerpts.
