# Context Map

Before implementing any changes, analyze the codebase and create a context map.

## Task

{{task_description}}

## Instructions

1. Search the codebase for files related to this task
2. Identify direct dependencies (imports/exports)
3. Find related tests
4. Look for similar patterns in existing code

## Output Format

```markdown
## Context Map

### Files to Modify
| File | Purpose | Changes Needed |
|------|---------|----------------|
| path/to/file | description | what changes |

### Dependencies (may need updates)
| File | Relationship |
|------|--------------|
| path/to/dep | imports X from modified file |

### Test Files
| Test | Coverage |
|------|----------|
| path/to/test | tests affected functionality |

### Reference Patterns
| File | Pattern |
|------|---------|
| path/to/similar | example to follow |

### Risk Assessment
- [ ] Breaking changes to public API
- [ ] Database migrations needed
- [ ] Configuration changes required
```

Do not proceed with implementation until this map is reviewed.

Cómo instalarla

1. Open the tool and start a new conversation, project or template.
2. Paste the text below wherever the tool keeps standing instructions
   — usually called system prompt, instructions, or persona.
3. Save it so it applies to every run rather than a single message.
