Use whenever the urge to "also add X", "while I'm here", "since I'm already touching this" appears, or a capability not foreseen in the feature spec comes up. Compares the proposal against the IN/OUT scope of the active feature and forces a conscious decision before expanding the work.

English

Use whenever you finish a task, pause a session, complete a phase, or change the project status. Ensures the living docs (CLAUDE.md, .claude/sessions/, the active plan) reflect the real state so the next session can resume without loss of context. Auto-activates on "done", "pausing", "completed", "end of phase", "I'm going to stop now".

English

Use whenever you are about to propose a technical solution, write code, or implement a feature. Ensures the proposal respects the project's accepted ADRs before writing a single line of code. Auto-activates when detecting context like "implement X", "how do I Y", "I'm going to use library Z", or similar.

English

Includes Detecting Scope Creep, Keeping Docs Alive, and Respecting Adrs.

Use whenever you finish a task, pause a session, complete a phase, or change the project status. Ensures the living docs (CLAUDE.md, .claude/sessions/, the active plan) reflect the real state so the next session can resume without loss of context. Auto-activates on "done", "pausing", "completed", "end of phase", "I'm going to stop now".

Respecting Adrs

Use whenever you are about to propose a technical solution, write code, or implement a feature. Ensures the proposal respects the project's accepted ADRs before writing a single line of code. Auto-activates when detecting context like "implement X", "how do I Y", "I'm going to use library Z", or similar.
