[IMPORTANT] Use

TaskCreate

to break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ATTENTION ask user whether to skip.

<!-- SYNC:critical-thinking-mindset -->

Critical Thinking Mindset — Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence >80% to act. Anti-hallucination: Never present guess as fact — cite sources for every claim, admit uncertainty freely, self-check output for errors, cross-reference independently, stay skeptical of own confidence — certainty without evidence root of all hallucination.

AI Mistake Prevention — Failure modes to avoid on every task:

• Check downstream references before deleting. Deleting components causes documentation and code staleness cascades. Map all referencing files before removal.
• Verify AI-generated content against actual code. AI hallucinates APIs, class names, and method signatures. Always grep to confirm existence before documenting or referencing.
• Trace full dependency chain after edits. Changing a definition misses downstream variables and consumers derived from it. Always trace the full chain.
• Trace ALL code paths when verifying correctness. Confirming code exists is not confirming it executes. Always trace early exits, error branches, and conditional skips — not just happy path.
• When debugging, ask "whose responsibility?" before fixing. Trace whether bug is in caller (wrong data) or callee (wrong handling). Fix at responsible layer — never patch symptom site.
• Assume existing values are intentional — ask WHY before changing. Before changing any constant, limit, flag, or pattern: read comments, check git blame, examine surrounding code.
• Verify ALL affected outputs, not just the first. Changes touching multiple stacks require verifying EVERY output. One green check is not all green checks.
• Holistic-first debugging — resist nearest-attention trap. When investigating any failure, list EVERY precondition first (config, env vars, DB names, endpoints, DI registrations, data preconditions), then verify each against evidence before forming any code-layer hypothesis.
• Surgical changes — apply the diff test. Bug fix: every changed line must trace directly to the bug. Don't restyle or improve adjacent code. Enhancement task: implement improvements AND announce them explicitly.
• Surface ambiguity before coding — don't pick silently. If request has multiple interpretations, present each with effort estimate and ask. Never assume all-records, file-based, or more complex path.

Quick Summary

Goal: Utilize MCP (Model Context Protocol) server tools to extend Claude's capabilities.

Workflow:

1. Discover -- List available MCP tools and their capabilities
2. Select -- Choose appropriate tool for the task
3. Execute -- Run MCP tool with correct parameters

Key Rules:

• Check available MCP servers before attempting to use tools
• Use MCP tools for capabilities not available in built-in tools
• Handle MCP tool errors gracefully with fallback approaches

Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).

Execute MCP operations via Gemini CLI to preserve context budget.

Execution Steps

1. Execute task via Gemini CLI (using stdin pipe for MCP support):

   # IMPORTANT: Use stdin piping, NOT -p flag (deprecated, skips MCP init)
   echo "$ARGUMENTS. Return JSON only per GEMINI.md instructions." | gemini -y -m gemini-2.5-flash
   

2. Fallback to general-purpose subagent (if Gemini CLI unavailable):

   • Use

     general-purpose

     subagent to discover and execute tools
   • If the subagent got issues with the scripts of

     mcp-management

     skill, use

     mcp-builder

     skill to fix them
   • DO NOT create ANY new scripts
   • The subagent can only use MCP tools if any to achieve this task
   • If the subagent can't find any suitable tools, just report it back to the main agent to move on to the next step

Important Notes

• MUST ATTENTION use stdin piping - the deprecated

  -p

  flag skips MCP initialization
• Use

  -y

  flag to auto-approve tool execution
• GEMINI.md auto-loaded: Gemini CLI automatically loads

  GEMINI.md

  from project root, enforcing JSON-only response format
• Parseable output: Responses are structured JSON:

  {"server":"name","tool":"name","success":true,"result":<data>,"error":null}

Anti-Pattern (DO NOT USE)

# BROKEN - deprecated -p flag skips MCP server connections!
gemini -y -m gemini-2.5-flash -p "..."

Closing Reminders

• IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION break work into small todo tasks using

  TaskCreate

  BEFORE starting
• IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION search codebase for 3+ similar patterns before creating new code
• IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION cite

  file:line

  evidence for every claim (confidence >80% to act)
• IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION add a final review todo task to verify work quality <!-- SYNC:critical-thinking-mindset:reminder -->
• MUST ATTENTION apply critical thinking — every claim needs traced proof, confidence >80% to act. Anti-hallucination: never present guess as fact. <!-- /SYNC:critical-thinking-mindset:reminder --> <!-- SYNC:ai-mistake-prevention:reminder -->
• MUST ATTENTION apply AI mistake prevention — holistic-first debugging, fix at responsible layer, surface ambiguity before coding, re-read files after compaction. <!-- /SYNC:ai-mistake-prevention:reminder -->
