slow-is-fast
Development Workflow: Slow is Fast
Core rule: Never modify code based on assumptions alone. Ground every decision in evidence.
Complexity Assessment
| Complexity | Characteristics | Workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Trivial | Typo, formatting, <10 lines, single API | Answer directly, quick grep for context |
| Moderate | Non-trivial logic in single file, local refactoring | Standard: all phases below |
| Complex | Cross-module design, concurrency, new architecture | Deep: use Explore agent, WebSearch, context7 |
Skip Conditions
Research can be minimal when:
- Pure formatting, typo, or rename fixes
- User explicitly provides the exact solution or says "just do it"
- Follow-up changes in same conversation where research was already done
- The change is within code you just wrote in this conversation
