Capture an out-of-scope improvement opportunity so it doesn't get lost. Use when the user asks to "note improvement", "save improvement", "track this for later", "remember this improvement", "note this idea", "log improvement", "backlog this", or "park this idea". Also invoke proactively when noticing something improvable during work that falls outside the current task's scope, or after deliberately shipping a simpler approach that accepts a known ceiling — briefly mention it to the user and offer to note it.

# Note Improvement

Capture improvement opportunities discovered during work so they don't get silently dropped. Appends to the `.turbo/improvements.md` backlog of the repo an improvement concerns.

## Step 1: Locate the Improvements File

Each repo keeps its improvements file at `.turbo/improvements.md` relative to that repo's root. Resolve that root with `git -C <repo path> rev-parse --show-toplevel`, except inside a linked worktree — where `git -C <repo path> rev-parse --git-dir` differs from `--git-common-dir` — in which case use the parent of the common dir, so the entry lands in the main checkout rather than in a worktree that is destroyed with its branch.

## Step 2: Identify the Improvement

Gather from context or `$ARGUMENTS`:

- **What**: One-line summary of the improvement
- **Type**: One of `direct`, `investigate`, or `plan` — see criteria below
