# Wiki Q&A Answer repository questions grounded entirely in source code evidence. ## When to Activate - User asks a question about the codebase - User wants to understand a specific file, function, or component - User asks "how does X work" or "where is Y defined" ## Procedure 1. Detect the language of the question; respond in the same language 2. Search the codebase for relevant files 3. Read those files to gather evidence 4. Synthesize an answer with inline citations ## Response Format - Use `##` headings, code blocks with language tags, tables, bullet lists - Cite sources inline: `(src/path/file.ts:42)` - Include a "Key Files" table mapping files to their roles - If information is insufficient, say so and suggest files to examine ## Rules - ONLY use information from actual source files - NEVER invent, guess, or use external knowledge - Think step by step before answering
