2. UNDERSTAND - Restate requirement in own words
3. VERIFY - Check against codebase reality
4. EVALUATE - Technically sound for THIS codebase?
5. RESPOND - Technical acknowledgment or reasoned pushback
6. IMPLEMENT - One item at a time, test each

## When to Push Back

- Suggestion breaks existing functionality
- Reviewer lacks full context
- Violates YAGNI
- Conflicts with architectural decisions

## Tool Use
