Decide whether work should live in an existing repo, be extracted upward into a shared home, adopt existing open source, borrow patterns, or be built from scratch. Use for "where should this go", "should this be extracted", "should this become a skill/shared package/helper repo", "is there an open source repo for this", "am I recreating the wheel", "should we fork/build this", "audit this codebase for build-vs-buy violations", "what can I get from this repo", "mine this repo", "prospect this", or when a plan should consider both ecosystem fit and the user's current repo portfolio, including dogfood buckets plus registry-backed placement checks for skill, SBP, MCP, or MMDX evidence freshness. When the blocker is current external reality rather than local code inspection, use escalate before finalizing the recommendation.
