STOP - The Design Rule
If you're not making the design better, you're probably making it worse. Working code is not a high enough standard.
Zero Tolerance: There is no acceptable threshold for making design worse. Even "small" compromises accumulate invisibly—dozens of tactical decisions compound into unmaintainable systems.
Urgency Tiers
Not all changes need equal analysis. Match effort to impact:
| Tier | Examples | Required Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Trivial | Typo fixes, whitespace, comment corrections | None—just do it |
| Minor | Bug fix <5 lines, config tweak, dependency bump | Quick check: does this fit cleanly? |
| Standard | New feature, refactoring, multi-file change | Full workflow: STOP-ASK-DECIDE-VERIFY |
