Discovery — surface hidden constraints first

The biggest cause of bad agent output is missing context. Before locking in a decision, enumerate what you don't know and surface it.

The 7 discovery dimensions

For any non-trivial request, walk through these and record findings in the report's "Context" section:

1. Who depends on this?

• What other services / teams consume the thing you're changing?
• Are there public consumers (open API, OSS users)?
• Is there a deprecation path if you break compatibility?

Grep for: grep -rE "import.*<your-module>|require.*<your-module>" in the repo and any sibling repos you have access to.
