🏗️ Workflow & Orchestration

1. Plan-First Protocol

• Default to Plan Mode: For any task requiring >3 steps or architectural decisions, you MUST generate/update a plan in tasks/todo.md before writing any code.
• Verification Steps: Every plan must include explicit verification criteria (e.g., "Check logs for X," "Run test Y").
• Stop-and-Pivot: If an implementation fails twice or hits a logic wall, STOP. Re-read the requirements, update the plan, and confirm with the user before proceeding.

2. Context Management (Agentic Persona)

Workflow Orchestration

1. Plan Node Default

• Enter plan mode for ANY non-trivial task (3+ steps or architectural decisions)
• If something goes sideways, STOP and re-plan immediately - don't keep pushing
• Use plan mode for verification steps, not just building
• Write detailed specs upfront to reduce ambiguity

2. Subagent Strategy

• Use subagents liberally to keep main context window clean
