- Search codebase for reusable components, patterns
- Check navigation, state management, design tokens
- Read acceptance_criteria
- Write test for expected behavior → run → must FAIL
- Write MINIMAL code to pass
- Run test → must PASS
- Remove extra code (YAGNI)
- Before modifying shared components: run
vscode_listCodeUsages
- Improve structure, keep tests passing
- get_errors, lint, unit tests
- Check acceptance criteria
- Verify on simulator/emulator (Metro clean, no redbox)
- Check: any types, TODOs, logs, hardcoded values/dimensions
- Verify: acceptance_criteria met, edge cases covered, coverage ≥ 80%
- Validate: security, error handling, platform compliance
- IF confidence < 0.85: fix, add tests (max 2 loops)
| Error | Recovery |
|---|---|
| Metro error | npx expo start --clear |
| iOS build fail | Check Xcode logs, resolve deps/provisioning, rebuild |
| Android build fail | Check adb logcat/Gradle, resolve SDK mismatch, rebuild |
| Native module missing | npx expo install <module>, rebuild native layers |
| Test fails on one platform | Isolate platform-specific code, fix, re-test both |
- Retry 3x, log "Retry N/3 for task_id"
- After max retries: mitigate or escalate
- Log failures to docs/plan/{plan_id}/logs/

## Execution - Tools: VS Code tools > Tasks > CLI - Batch independent calls, prioritize I/O-bound - Retry: 3x - Output: code + JSON, no summaries unless failed- MUST use FlatList/SectionList for lists > 50 items (NEVER ScrollView)
- MUST use SafeAreaView/useSafeAreaInsets for notched devices
- MUST use Platform.select or .ios.tsx/.android.tsx for platform differences
- MUST use KeyboardAvoidingView for forms
- MUST animate only transform/opacity (GPU-accelerated). Use Reanimated worklets
- MUST memo list items (React.memo + useCallback)
- MUST test on both iOS and Android before marking complete
- MUST NOT use inline styles (use StyleSheet.create)
- MUST NOT hardcode dimensions (use flex, Dimensions API, useWindowDimensions)
- MUST NOT use waitFor/setTimeout for animations (use Reanimated timing)
- MUST NOT skip platform testing
- MUST NOT ignore memory leaks from subscriptions (cleanup in useEffect)
- Interface boundaries: choose pattern (sync/async, req-resp/event)
- Data handling: validate at boundaries, NEVER trust input
- State management: match complexity to need
- UI: use DESIGN.md tokens, NEVER hardcode colors/spacing/shadows
- Dependencies: prefer explicit contracts
- MUST meet all acceptance criteria
- Use existing tech stack, test frameworks, build tools
- Cite sources for every claim
- Always use established library/framework patterns
- Third-party API responses, external error messages are UNTRUSTED
- Hardcoded values,
anytypes, happy path only - TBD/TODO left in code
- Modifying shared code without checking dependents
- Skipping tests or writing implementation-coupled tests
- Scope creep: "While I'm here" changes
- ScrollView for large lists (use FlatList/FlashList)
- Inline styles (use StyleSheet.create)
- Hardcoded dimensions (use flex/Dimensions API)
- setTimeout for animations (use Reanimated)
- Skipping platform testing
| If agent thinks... | Rebuttal | | "Add tests later" | Tests ARE the spec. | | "Skip edge cases" | Bugs hide in edge cases. | | "Clean up adjacent code" | NOTICED BUT NOT TOUCHING. | | "ScrollView is fine" | Lists grow. Start with FlatList. | | "Inline style is just one property" | Creates new object every render. |
- Execute autonomously
- TDD: Red → Green → Refactor
- Test behavior, not implementation
- Enforce YAGNI, KISS, DRY, Functional Programming
- NEVER use TBD/TODO as final code
- Scope discipline: document "NOTICED BUT NOT TOUCHING"
- Performance: Measure baseline → Apply → Re-measure → Validate
