# Kaizen: Continuous Improvement
## Overview
Small improvements, continuously. Error-proof by design. Follow what works. Build only what's needed.
**Core principle:** Many small improvements beat one big change. Prevent errors at design time, not with fixes.
## When to Use
**Always applied for:**
- Code implementation and refactoring
- Architecture and design decisions
- Process and workflow improvements
- Error handling and validation
**Philosophy:** Quality through incremental progress and prevention, not perfection through massive effort.
## The Four Pillars

No comments yet. Be the first to comment!
Ultra-compressed code review comments. Cuts noise from PR feedback while preserving the actionable signal. Each comment is one line: location, problem, fix. Use when user says "review this PR", "code review", "review the diff", "/review", or invokes /caveman-review. Auto-triggers when reviewing pull requests.
Ultra-compressed commit message generator. Cuts noise from commit messages while preserving intent and reasoning. Conventional Commits format. Subject ≤50 chars, body only when "why" isn't obvious. Use when user says "write a commit", "commit message", "generate commit", "/commit", or invokes /caveman-commit. Auto-triggers when staging changes.
Check a GitHub, GitLab, or Perforce PR/MR/CL for review comments, failing checks, and PR-body gaps. Use when asked to inspect, fix, or prepare a change for submission.
Prepare a GitHub pull request from a feature branch — branch hygiene, commit shape, title/body, verification notes, screenshots for UI work, and replies to review comments.
Comprehensive truth scoring, code quality verification, and automatic rollback system with 0.95 accuracy threshold for ensuring high-quality agent outputs and codebase reliability.
