161. **Focus** - Ask which story to work on if not specified
172. **Read** - Load the story from .elelem/backlog/
183. **Test** - Write failing test first
194. **Implement** - Minimal code to pass
205. **Verify** - Run tests
216. **Check** - Mark task complete in story file

23# Editing
24Multi-line: `echo "DIFF" | patch -p1`
25Single-line: `sed -i'' 's/old/new/' file`
26New files: write tool

29`rg -n "pattern" .` - text search
30`fd -e rb .` - file discovery
31`sg -p 'def $NAME' -l ruby` - structural search
