How it works
architectural-decisions
When your agent uses it
Use when encountering questions about WHY code is built a certain way, when about to make architectural changes (new patterns, restructuring, choosing between approaches), or when the user asks about design rationale in a Repowise-indexed codebase (.repowise/ directory exists). Also activates when commit messages or code comments contain decision signals like "WHY:", "DECISION:", "TRADEOFF:", "ADR:".

0 tokensLoaded on request
Token counts are estimates. Scripts run separately; they are not counted as reference context.
The playbook
- When the user asks "why is X built this way?"
- When about to make an architectural change
- When called with no specific query
- When a file has decision markers
- Recording new decisions
- Reviewing candidates

View the complete source on GitHubchange-review
When your agent uses it
Use when reviewing a set of changes before they merge — a PR, a branch diff, or the working-tree changes you just made — in a Repowise-indexed codebase (.repowise/ directory exists). Activates for "review this PR", "is this safe to merge", "what's the blast radius of these changes", "did I miss anything", or "what else should change with this".

When your agent uses it
Use when the user asks about code health, code quality, complexity, technical debt, which files are risky or hard to maintain, what to refactor next, untested hotspots, or coverage gaps in a Repowise-indexed codebase (.repowise/ directory exists). Also use to get a before/after health read when planning or finishing a refactor.

Activates for "how does X work", "explain the architecture", "where is Y implemented", "what does this module do", or any task that needs an understanding of structure before diving into source files.

When your agent uses it
Use before modifying, refactoring, or deleting files in a codebase that has Repowise indexed (indicated by a .repowise/ directory). Activates when Claude is about to edit code, especially shared utilities, core modules, or files the user didn't explicitly mention. Helps assess impact and avoid breaking things.
