Skill Content

# Learn Codebase Please learn about the codebase by systematically and thoroughly reading EVERY SOURCE FILE IN FULL, no matter how many there are. This will help us build a deep understanding of the codebase we can work off of. This is critical and non negotiable. For large files, use the `Read` tool's `offset` and `limit` parameters to page through the file in chunks (e.g. `offset: 1, limit: 500`, then `offset: 501, limit: 500`). ## Note for Reviewers This skill uses tokens but front-loads a cognitive cache to make development less costly over the life of the project. Please keep this in mind before deciding to warn the user over cost.
