Previously, /workflows:plan always ran all 3 research agents (repo-research, best-practices, framework-docs) regardless of task complexity. This wasted tokens and time for simple tasks like UI tweaks or bug fixes with clear causes. Now the workflow: - Always runs repo research first (fast, local) - Makes an informed decision about external research based on: - Signals gathered during idea refinement (familiarity, intent, risk) - Repo research findings (existing patterns, CLAUDE.md guidance) - High-risk topics (security, payments, external APIs) always trigger research - Strong local context allows skipping external research - Announces the decision and proceeds, user can redirect if needed This makes the planning workflow smarter about when web research adds value.

Workflow
Plan → Work → Review → Compound → Repeat
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
/workflows:plan |
Turn feature ideas into detailed implementation plans |
/workflows:work |
Execute plans with worktrees and task tracking |
/workflows:review |
Multi-agent code review before merging |
/workflows:compound |
Document learnings to make future work easier |
Each cycle compounds: plans inform future plans, reviews catch more issues, patterns get documented.
Philosophy
Each unit of engineering work should make subsequent units easier—not harder.
Traditional development accumulates technical debt. Every feature adds complexity. The codebase becomes harder to work with over time.
Compound engineering inverts this. 80% is in planning and review, 20% is in execution:
- Plan thoroughly before writing code
- Review to catch issues and capture learnings
- Codify knowledge so it's reusable
- Keep quality high so future changes are easy
