Match the task to one or more Branches rows and read every listed file in full before producing output — those references are the contract; the tripwires below are only a final self-check.

Done when: every matched reference was read, the change follows its patterns, and no tripwire is violated.
Tripwires
Query — array keys that include every dependency; invalidate (or optimistically update with rollback) after mutations; never put non-serializable values in keys.
Router — register the router type; validate search with defaults (.catch()); use ensureQueryData in loaders when pairing with Query; throw redirect(...) not return.
Form — complete defaultValues for inference; Zod at form/field level; debounce async validators (≥500ms); role="alert" on field errors; preventDefault on submit.
