Strategy — Minimal Diff Edits

When to use

• The user asks to fix a single bug or make a small change and does not want the surrounding file or module rewritten.
• The user wants only the requested change and no drive-by cleanups, reformatting, or unrelated refactors mixed into the same edit.
• The change can be expressed as a targeted, scoped edit to a few lines rather than a rewrite of the whole file or class.
