Search relevant `knowledge/` paths using business terms, symbols and synonyms.
Use bounded match excerpts to choose relevant articles, not filenames alone;
path-only results suffice when locating an already identified file. Adapt to the
results in both local and remote retrieval: for zero hits, check query semantics
and relax combined conditions or try equivalent terms; for noisy results, narrow
the path or use a more distinctive term before reading more output. A miss alone
does not establish absence. Read relevant sections in context; if they are
insufficient and likely relevant candidates remain, batch those sections before
deciding to trace sources. Do not exhaust every candidate or impose a fixed
search or reading count. Reuse known paths and source metadata; consult
`knowledge/structure.yaml` and source registries only for missing navigation or
attribution, not to rediscover information already supplied. In
package-first or dual mode, approved knowledge can resolve gaps or freshness

Candidates and temporary reports are not approved pages. Do not build merely to answer a query; a separately
authorized build must follow its own workflow without advancing unrelated work.

When package or approved knowledge leaves a gap, directly trace relevant sources
without asking whether to deepen the query. Use available document, code-search
or extraction tools within the authorized scope, recording source identity and
version. Prepare sources while continuing other reading.
One failed source blocks only dependent claims. If the read knowledge supports
the requested conclusion, its conditions and scope, answer without restoring
code or checking every associated source. Missing mechanisms, conflicting facts
or unsupported current-behavior claims still require targeted investigation;
an article title, search snippet or unread citation is not sufficient evidence.
One failed source blocks only dependent claims. Judge gaps by whether resolving
them differently could change the requested conclusion, its conditions or scope.
Investigate those gaps, or give a conditional conclusion when they cannot be
resolved; do not expand into other repositories or checks merely because more
facts are available. If the read knowledge suffices, answer without restoring code
or checking every associated source. Omit unverified supplementary claims rather
than expanding the investigation to support unnecessary detail. An article title,
search snippet or recorded reference locates evidence; it does not establish that
the original source was read or verified.

discover only unknown repositories, inspect status only for relevant failures,
and resolve a branch only when its version is needed and not already fixed.

`context-sourcegraph` uses Zoekt query syntax, not every Sourcegraph search feature.
Use `q` for supported content/path expressions and `revision` for the version;
do not assume slash-delimited regex or unsupported filters and pagination flags.
Follow the actual schema and diagnostics. A suspicious zero result calls for a
targeted syntax/range correction or a known-file read, not a conclusion of absence.
`context-sourcegraph` search is rg-like: `pattern` is a line-by-line RE2 regular
expression over content, not a query language. Use `fixed_strings: true` for
literal text, `ignore_case: true` when case should not matter (default is
case-sensitive), and `glob` for ordered file include/exclude patterns, such as
`["src/**/*.ts", "!**/*.test.ts"]`. `paths` limits repository-relative directories
within registered coverage; it is not a filename regex. Do not put `content:`,
`file:` or other query operators into the pattern or send the removed `q` field.
Use `A|B` for regex alternatives; spaces match spaces, not file-level AND. When
both terms must occur in a file, verify candidates by reading or intersect
separate searches as needed; truncated results cannot establish a complete
intersection. Do not silently replace AND with OR. Serialize parameters normally;
do not add shell quoting or a second query-language escaping layer. For example:
`{"pattern":"createStore(","fixed_strings":true,"glob":["src/**"]}`.

Follow the connected schema without an extra discovery call when it is already
available. The remote service does not implement every rg option, PCRE feature
or local ignore rule. On `INVALID_PATTERN` or `INVALID_GLOB`, inspect the error
message and correct the affected parameter while preserving repo, revision and
intended scope. Do not resend an identical deterministic failure, guess a
replacement from generic examples, or silently turn invalid regex into literal
text. If a targeted correction fails, use another available retrieval path or
qualify the gap rather than looping. A zero result is not a syntax error or proof
of absence; check case, scope and terms or read a known file. These parameters
apply only to this remote tool; local grep/rg retrieval remains available under
the access policy above.
