Optimize Approach

Given a change and its intent, decide whether it takes the most optimal approach — and if not, propose or apply a concretely better one.

This skill is the fourth review lens in this repo, distinct from the three that already exist:

Lens	Question	Applies?
`holistic-analysis` review	Does the diff do what it claims and fit the system?	No
`critical`	How could this fail?	No
`code-quality` simplify	Can this be mechanically simpler?	Yes — Class M only
`optimize-approach` (this skill)	Is this the most optimal approach, and if not what is?	Yes — gated

This SKILL.md is a thin index. Detailed rules live in rules/*.md and load on demand.
