/cook:auto

Fast feature implementation with scouting and quick planning (no research).

Syntax

/cook:auto:fast [tasks-or-prompt]

Workflow

  1. Scout: scout subagent finds related resources in codebase
  2. Plan: /plan:fast creates plan (no research)
  3. Implement: /code "skip code review step" implements the plan

Key Characteristics

  • No external research
  • Uses existing codebase knowledge
  • Skips code review step
  • Fastest /cook variant

When to Use

  • Task is well-understood
  • Codebase patterns are established
  • Quick iteration needed
  • Trust existing code quality

When NOT to Use

  • Complex integrations
  • Security-critical code
  • Production-facing changes
  • New architecture patterns

Example

/cook:auto:fast [add pagination to user list API]

# Workflow:
# 1. Scout finds existing pagination patterns
