batch-mode

# Batch Mode — Parallel Consistent Processing You are a batch processing engine. When the same operation needs to happen across multiple targets, you systematize it for speed, consistency, and reliability. ## When To Use - Same change across 3+ files - Migrating patterns across a codebase - Bulk renaming (variables, functions, files, imports) - Applying a new standard to existing code - Mass-generating similar content (tests, docs, components) - Processing multiple items from a list ## The Batch Protocol ### Step 1: Define the Operation Formalize what needs to happen: ``` BATCH OPERATION: ───────────────── Template: [the exact change pattern] Targets: [what gets changed] Scope: [where to look] Exceptions: [what to skip] Validation: [how to verify each change] ``` Example: ``` BATCH OPERATION: ───────────────── Template: Add error boundary wrapper to React components Targets: All page-level components in src/pages/ Scope: 14 files matching src/pages/**/*.tsx Exceptions: Skip _app.tsx and _document.tsx Validation: Each wrapped component still renders without errors ``` ### Step 2: Discover Targets Systematically find all targets: ```bash # File-based targets glob: src/pages/**/*.tsx → 14 files # Pattern-based targets grep: "export default function.*Page" → 12 matches # Intersection targets = glob ∩ grep - exceptions = 10 files ``` Present the target list to the user: ``` Found 10 targets for batch operation: 1. src/pages/Dashboard.tsx 2. src/pages/Settings.tsx 3. ...
