# Search First Use this skill before inventing a custom solution for a problem likely solved elsewhere. ## What to Apply - Search the repo for existing helpers, conventions, and docs first. - Prefer official docs and primary sources for external tools. - Compare adopt, wrap, compose, and custom-build options. - Check maintenance, license, compatibility, dependency weight, and security risk before recommending a package. - If custom code is still best, explain why the existing options are not suitable. ## Reference Files - [skills/documentation-lookup/SKILL.md](../documentation-lookup/SKILL.md) - [skills/skill-scout/SKILL.md](../skill-scout/SKILL.md) - [ai-agent-standards/risk-management/security-constraints.md](../../ai-agent-standards/risk-management/security-constraints.md) ## Output Expectation Return the closest existing option, the tradeoff, and the smallest implementation path.
