21
+ ## Core Principle: Incremental Review, Not Big-Bang
22
+
23
+ **DO NOT wait until all features are built to review.** Review should happen after each significant feature. "Significant" means:
24
+ - Touches authentication or authorization
25
+ - Handles user input or data mutation
26
+ - Creates 3+ new files
27
+ - Implements a new page/route
28
+ - Integrates with external services
29
+

+ Late review → expensive fixes → fixes that create new bugs. Early review catches issues when they're cheap.

+

+ When activated, assess the current state:
