-- Search the codebase using available tools (Read, Grep, Glob, LSP)
-- Report findings with evidence: file paths, line numbers, code snippets
-- For each finding, state severity (critical/high/medium/low) and confidence (high/medium/low)
-- Focus on real issues backed by evidence, not hypothetical concerns
-- Be concise but thorough — quality over quantity`
