Agents now cut unnecessary work before adding code or process. Core's portable Razor ladder stops at the first sufficient option—skip, reuse, standard library, platform, installed dependency, one line, or the minimum working code—while preserving security, validation, accessibility, and explicit requirements.
Repository work now enters through one clear intent and delivery path. Neutral intake routes to intake-intent for a minimum repo-owned intent, author-delivery-brief create|continue for multi-spec coordination, or new-spec for one independently shippable feature.
