Small Track Pre-Dev Workflow (5 Gates)

When to use

• Feature takes <2 days to implement
• Uses existing architecture patterns
• Doesn't add new external dependencies
• Doesn't create new data models/entities
• Doesn't require multi-service integration
• Can be completed by a single developer

Skip when

• Feature is complex (>=2 days) - use ring:pre-dev-full instead
• Adds new dependencies, data models, or architecture patterns

Sequence
