## How to Use

### Before Implementing a Feature

1. **Check for related specs**:
   ```bash
   grep -ril "keyword" .specweave/docs/internal/specs/
   ```

2. **Read relevant ADRs**:
   ```bash
   grep -l "topic" .specweave/docs/internal/architecture/adr/*.md
   ```

3. **Load the context** by reading the files found.

### Before Making Design Decisions

1. **Check existing ADRs** to avoid contradicting past decisions
2. **Read architecture docs** to understand current patterns
3. **Follow established conventions**

### Example Workflow

```
Task: "Implement user authentication"

1. Search for related docs:
   grep -ril "auth" .specweave/docs/internal/

2. Found:
   - .specweave/docs/internal/specs/backend/us-001-authentication.md
   - .specweave/docs/internal/architecture/adr/0001-
