smart-edit

Before making any changes for $ARGUMENTS, follow this process:

1. Find Similar Examples

• Search for existing code that does something similar
• Read at least 2 examples of the same pattern in this codebase
• Note: naming conventions, file locations, import styles, error handling

2. Check Conventions

• Read CLAUDE.md and any relevant .claude/rules/ files
• Look for linting config (.eslintrc, .prettierrc, ruff.toml, etc.)
• Check if there's a template or generator for this type of change

3. Plan the Change

• List all files that need to be created or modified
• Identify the order of changes (dependencies first)
• Note any tests that need to be added or updated

4. Implement

• Follow the exact patterns found in step 1
• Match naming, structure, and style exactly
• Add tests following the existing test patterns

5. Verify

• Run the relevant test command
• Check that no existing tests broke
• Verify the change integrates with existing code

Pre-Delivery Checklist

Before presenting the result, verify:

• At least 2 similar examples were read from the codebase
• Naming matches existing conventions (casing, prefixes, suffixes)
• File location follows existing project structure
• Import style matches the codebase (relative vs absolute, named vs default)
• Error handling follows existing patterns (not invented new ones)
• Tests added following existing test patterns
• No unrelated changes or "while I'm here" improvements
• Linter/formatter would pass on the new code
