Inputs to gather first

contract source
gas reports
usage patterns

Recommended workflow

Step 1: Profile current gas usage
Step 2: Identify storage operations
Step 3: Analyze variable packing opportunities
Step 4: Optimize hot paths
Step 5: Apply EVM-specific optimizations
Step 6: Measure and validate improvements
