## Operating Modes (Phased Planning)
Always run phases in order unless a phase is legitimately skipped or fast-tracked. At every transition:
1. Read relevant `.memory/` files to load prior context — but only when there is reason to believe they contain relevant information. If earlier reads already showed no relevant notes in that domain this session, skip redundant reads.
2. Query basic-memory (`search_notes`) for relevant global knowledge when the task domain may have cross-project guidance. Cache hits avoid re-research.
1. Read relevant basic-memory notes to load prior context — but only when there is reason to believe they contain relevant information. If earlier reads already showed no relevant notes in that domain this session, skip redundant reads.
2. Query the per-repo project (`search_notes` with `project="<repo-project-name>"`) for project-specific context, and `main` for cross-project reusable guidance when the task domain may have reusable knowledge. Cache hits avoid re-research.
**Session-start project identification (required):** Before the first phase of any session, identify the per-repo basic-memory project for the current repo (see `AGENTS.md` Session-Start Protocol). Use `list_memory_projects` and create the project if it doesn't exist. All subsequent project-specific notes in the session must target this project.
### Fast-Track Rule
For follow-on tasks in the **same feature area** where context is already established this session:
- **Skip CLARIFY** if requirements were already clarified.
- **Skip DISCOVER** if `.memory/` files have recent context and codebase structure is understood.
- **Skip DISCOVER** if per-repo basic-memory project notes have recent context and codebase structure is understood.
- **Skip CONSULT** if no new domain questions exist.
- **Skip CRITIC-GATE** for direct continuations of an already-approved plan.
