Infer conventions

Locate the project's standards and stack, and read them into context.

If the repo root has a REVIEW.md, read it, then the docs it points to — it overrides anything found below.

Otherwise find:

  • Agent instructionsAGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md; honor what they state about conventions and follow their pointers.
  • Documentation — where the project keeps its docs, and their index.
  • Conventions — the project's stated standards.
  • Architecture — design and decision docs.
  • Stack — the frameworks, from the project's manifests. Name them plainly (e.g. Laravel, React, Inertia).

Done when the project's standards and stack are in context.
