# Code Generation

## Overview

Guides code output to be minimal and pattern-matching. Write the least amount of code that satisfies the requirements while following existing project conventions.

## Principles

1. **Minimal**: Write the least code that makes tests pass
2. **Pattern-matching**: Follow existing project conventions (check patterns.md)
3. **Tool discipline**: Use Write/Edit for files, Bash only for runners and linters
4. **No gold plating**: Do not add features beyond what is required
5. **No premature optimization**: Optimize only when performance tests demand it

## Code Quality Checks

- Follow project naming conventions
- Match existing file structure and organization
- Use established error handling patterns
- Maintain consistent import ordering
- Follow TypeScript strictness (no `any`, proper narrowing)

## When to Use

- During TDD GREEN phase (minimal implementation)
- During TDD REFACTOR phase (pattern alignment)
- When implementing fixes in DEBUG workflow

## Agents Used

- `component-builder` (primary consumer)
- `bug-investigator` (fix implementation)
