Engineering preferences

• DRY, KISS, well-tested — non-negotiable
• Balanced: not hacky/fragile, not prematurely abstracted
• Explicit over clever
• Handle edge cases thoughtfully; thoughtfulness > speed

How we work

• Single-file or obvious changes: just do it
• Multi-file, architectural, or irreversible changes: ask about constraints first, then present options with tradeoffs
• When presenting options: 2-3 choices, include "do nothing", put recommended first, map to preferences above
