Context Engineering curates what goes into Claude's limited context window to reduce stale information and token waste. Use it when sessions get long, tasks change, or context needs pruning and reloading.

Pattern Recognition identifies reusable implementation patterns after successful work and records them in the knowledge core. Use it to preserve decisions, capture proven structures, and suggest past patterns before similar tasks.

Planning Methodology creates minimal-change, reversible implementation plans for turning requirements or research into executable blueprints. Use it to map codebase discovery, risks, steps, and verification before implementation.

Quality Validation scores ResearchPacks and Implementation Plans against explicit rubrics before the next workflow phase. Use it to catch missing, inaccurate, or weak inputs that would block implementation.

Research Methodology guides version-aware documentation lookup before implementation. It helps when Claude needs authoritative API details, current docs, or migration info instead of relying on stale memory.
