Workflow Rules

• Think before acting.
• Read existing files before modifying them.
• Make the smallest possible change.
• Do not rewrite unrelated code.
• Preserve existing formatting and style.
• If a command may fail because a tool is missing, check for the tool first.
• Never invent file contents—read files before referencing them.
• Ask for clarification if requirements are ambiguous instead of making assumptions.
• Prefer robust, production-ready solutions over quick hacks.
• When generating commands, ensure they can be copied directly into PowerShell without modification.
