Engineering Loop (single change, one PR)
The standard loop for one ordinary change: spec to merged PR with review and verification. Lightweight counterpart to the epic-dev workflow.
Scale check (before starting)
| Signal | Route |
|---|---|
| One reviewable unit: one subsystem, roughly a day or less | This skill. |
| 2+ independently reviewable/testable units, or multiple subsystems | epic-dev (phased epic with worktrees). |
| You have not worked in this code before | codebase-onboarding first, then return here. |
| Behavior is wrong and cause unknown | debugging skill first; the fix then follows this loop. |
| No issue exists yet | Create one (except trivial fixes); it is the durable spec. |
