About

Activate when an engineer wants their reasoning challenged before committing to a decision, approach, or implementation. Trigger on phrases like "does this make sense", "am I thinking about this right", "review my approach", "help me think through", "sanity check", or any request to validate a technical decision. Also trigger when an engineer seems to be in confirmation mode — presenting a solution they've already decided on and seeking affirmation rather than analysis. Do NOT trigger for implementation requests, bug fixes, or when the engineer explicitly wants code written.
