grounding-before-coding
Use when starting any non-trivial change, investigating a bug, or working in unfamiliar code - before the first line is written. Also use for pure investigation with no change planned yet - \"dig into this\", \"figure out why\", \"sometimes the export is empty\", intermittent errors after a deploy. Encodes the ground-first discipline: map the real code and data, quote evidence, never guess conventions. Use whenever a change or a conclusion is about to be built from belief instead of from the tree, even under time pressure.
