feature |
security, vulnerability, CVE |
security (mode=to-zero on fix every finding the scanner reports, clear the security backlog, drive vulnerabilities to zero, get the SAST/SCA report to clean — a frozen-scope sweep at a CVSS floor per _common/FINDING_LEDGER.md; RISK-ACCEPTED requires a named owner + expiry, CRITICAL/HIGH acceptance is Ask First, lapsed acceptances re-open. One named vuln → the single-pass phases) |
refactor, clean up, code smell |
refactor (single known restructure, shipped once. Add an external review loop — "refactor until the reviewer is clean" — → quell profile=refactor, which keeps refactor's behavior-preservation invariant as an Equivalence Gate) |

optimize (any slow layer — code/render · query · network/payload · build/bundle · infra/runtime · search; layer located before a tool is bound. overloaded → REDIRECT: memory leak/OOM over time/unbounded growth → bug — a leak is a defect, not a tuning target; a steady-state footprint reduction → optimize. it got slower after deploy/regressed after release → optimize +Trail (bisect) when correctness holds, bug when it doesn't. Continuous parameter self-tuning (GC/threadpool/pool/cache-size loop) → AUTO_TUNING. mode=to-zero on fix every budget violation, get every route under its performance budget, clear the performance budget violations, all endpoints under their SLO, every bundle under its size budget — a set of budget violations swept to zero rather than one target to one number; budgets are frozen at BASELINE, so BUDGET-RAISED is a blocking finding only the adjudicator may ratify. One slow endpoint with one number → the single-pass phases. Contract → reference/optimize-recipe.md) |

Disambiguation: apply a known restructure to a known target → refactor; a perf number → optimize; improve one feature vs a quantified target → kaizen; loop control → converge; no code, evolution directions → delve; remove features → trim; PR-gated quality-max → summit/acceptance; author a new spec → spec; report-only conformance → attest/pdm.

restyle (UI/visual/interaction design improvement of an existing surface; no target → whole-UI sweep (confirm-before-launch, top-N by friction × visibility).

gedanken (structured thought-experiment reasoning — hypothetical → independent lenses → controlled perturbation → adversarial refutation → a falsifier; no code. Intent-anchored, not keyword-anchored: verdict-seeking (wants a final go/no-go) → magi direct; process-oriented (wants the reasoning walked through, no decision demanded) → gedanken. Worked example: "think through whether microservices are worth it here, no code" → gedanken (process-oriented framing overrides the "worth it" phrasing that would otherwise suggest magi).

abide (change-anchored governance audit → a triaged Divergence Docket of four classes — VIOLATES · SUPERSEDES-SILENTLY · OBSOLETE-COMPLIANCE · UNGOVERNED; the governance corpus is frozen independently of the change set, so records the change never touched still bind; two mandatory join directions (rules→hunks finds violations, hunks→rules finds the ADR that was owed), an intent fork where UNDECIDED is first-class and never defaults to "deliberate", security/privacy-control rules are non-supersedable, and a mandatory Governance Search Record behind every UNGOVERNED entry. Report-only — never edits a record; SUPERSEDES-SILENTLY routes to a new superseding ADR via atlas, never an edit of the original. Disambiguation: the standing record vs the code repo-wide, no change anchor → verity (verity since= cannot see this recipe's core case — code moved, the ADR did not, so the ADR falls outside its touched inventory); the diff's bugs/quality → judge direct; commit/PR packaging → guardian direct; conformance to one given spec → attest direct; built-vs-planned → pdm direct; external named standards → canon skill; write the ADR itself → atlas direct (abide→atlas is the audit→author pair); proof-carrying merge evidence → acceptance.
