Read `../references/e2e-benchmarks.md` for the git-worktree-based workflow for more rigorous isolation. If E2E contradicts micro-bench (e.g., micro showed 15% but E2E shows <2%), trust E2E and DISCARD or rework.

14. **Final keep/discard.** In `LARGE-SCALE` mode, final KEEP requires workload evidence: the target met the value gate before the change AND an E2E/representative workload measurement improved by >=5% with no material regression. Strong cross-function keeps require >=10% on >=2 representative workloads when available. Micro-only wins are DISCARD unless the session was reclassified as `LIBRARY PRIMITIVE` and has >=3 named downstream callers. Print `[experiment N] KEEP -- <net effect across dimensions>` or `[experiment N] DISCARD -- <reason>`. Do NOT `git commit` here — commits are handled per `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/agent-base-protocol.md` "Git Operations Boundary" and only after the post-return audit in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/router-base.md` has cleared the experiment.

### Stuck State Recovery

|
||||
For the shared recovery protocol, read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/experiment-loop-base.md`. Deep-mode additions:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Re-profile from scratch.** Your cached mental model may be wrong. Run the unified profiling script fresh.
|
||||
2. **Re-read results.tsv.** Look for patterns: which techniques worked in which domains? Any untried combinations?
|
||||
3. **Try cross-domain combinations.** Combine 2-3 previously successful single-domain techniques.
|
||||
4. **Try the opposite.** If fine-grained fixes keep failing, try a coarser architectural change that spans domains.
|
||||
5. **Verify JIT behavior.** The JIT may be optimizing away your changes. Run `-XX:+PrintCompilation` and `-prof perfasm` to see what the JIT actually does. If the JIT already eliminates the pattern, the code is at its optimization floor for that pattern.
|
||||
6. **Check for missed interactions.** Run JFR with `jdk.G1GarbageCollection` and `jdk.ObjectAllocationInNewTLAB` together -- the GC->CPU interaction is the most commonly missed.
|
||||
7. **Re-read original goal.** Has the focus drifted?
|
||||
8. **Consult failure modes.** Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/failure-modes.md` for known workflow failure patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
If still stuck after 3 more experiments, **stop and report** with a comprehensive cross-domain analysis of why the code is at its floor.
|
||||
1. Re-run the unified profiling script from scratch before trusting your cached target table.
|
||||
2. Check whether a supposed CPU problem is really allocation/GC or contention driven.
|
||||
3. Verify JIT behavior (`-XX:+PrintCompilation`, `-prof perfasm`) before spending more budget on a micro-pattern.
|
||||
4. If the workflow itself looks broken, consult `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/failure-modes.md`.

## Workflow

## Session Wiring
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 0: Environment Setup
|
||||
Startup, resume semantics, git mode, shared HANDOFF/results handling, pre-submit review, adversarial review, and PR behavior are owned by `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/agent-base-protocol.md` and the router. Your job is to:
|
||||
|
||||
You are self-sufficient -- handle your own setup before any profiling.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify branch state.** Run `git status` and `git branch --show-current`. If on `codeflash/optimize`, treat as resume. If the prompt indicates CI mode (contains "CI" context), stay on the current branch -- go to "CI mode" instead. Otherwise, if on `main`, check if `codeflash/optimize` already exists -- if so, check it out and treat as resume; if not, you'll create it in "Starting fresh".
|
||||
2. **Run setup** (skip if `.codeflash/setup.md` already exists). Launch the setup agent:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Agent(subagent_type: "codeflash-java-setup", prompt: "Set up the project environment for optimization.")
|
||||
```
|
||||
Wait for it to complete, then read `.codeflash/setup.md`.
|
||||
3. **Validate setup.** Check `.codeflash/setup.md` for issues: missing test command, missing JDK, build tool errors. If everything is clean, proceed.
|
||||
4. **Read project context** (all optional -- skip if not found):
|
||||
- `CLAUDE.md` -- architecture decisions, coding conventions.
|
||||
- `codeflash_profile.md` -- org/project optimization profile. Search project root first, then parent directory.
|
||||
- `.codeflash/learnings.md` -- insights from previous sessions. Pay special attention to cross-domain interaction hints.
|
||||
- `.codeflash/conventions.md` -- maintainer preferences, guard command. Also check `../conventions.md` for org-level conventions (project-level overrides org-level).
|
||||
5. **Validate tests.** Run the test command from setup.md (`mvn test` or `./gradlew test`). Note pre-existing failures so you don't waste time on them.
|
||||
6. **Research dependencies** (optional, skip if context7 unavailable). Read `pom.xml` or `build.gradle` to identify performance-relevant libraries (Jackson, Guava, Apache Commons, Hibernate). For each, use `mcp__context7__resolve-library-id` then `mcp__context7__query-docs` (query: "performance optimization best practices"). Note findings for use during profiling.
|
||||
|
||||
### Starting fresh
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify you are on `codeflash/optimize`.** Run `git branch --show-current`. If the branch is already `codeflash/optimize`, continue. If it exists but is not checked out, run `git checkout codeflash/optimize`. **Do NOT create the branch yourself** — per `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/agent-base-protocol.md` "Git Operations Boundary", branch creation is the router's (or user's) responsibility and happens before you are launched. If you find yourself on `main` (or any other branch) and `codeflash/optimize` does not exist, report this back via the coordination loop as a router-setup gap and stop — do not paper over it with `git checkout -b`. (**CI mode**: skip this step entirely — stay on the current branch.)
|
||||
2. **Initialize `.codeflash/HANDOFF.md`** from `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/handoff-template.md`. Fill in: branch, project root, JDK version, build tool, test command, GC algorithm.
|
||||
3. **Unified baseline.** Run the unified CPU+Memory+GC profiling.
|
||||
4. **Build the Large-Scale Value Gate table.** In `LARGE-SCALE` mode, do this before any JMH micro-benchmark. If no target meets the threshold, discover a better representative workload or stop with a measured plateau; do not fall back to cold source-code smells.
|
||||
5. **Capture JMH baseline.** If the project has JMH benchmarks (check `.codeflash/setup.md`) and they exercise a target from the value-gate table, run them on the unmodified code to establish a performance baseline:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bash /tmp/jmh-runner.sh "<BenchmarkClass>" --label baseline \
|
||||
--mode avgt --forks 3 --warmup 5 --measurement 10 --time 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
This baseline is the comparison point for all subsequent experiments. Without it, benchmark numbers are meaningless.
|
||||
6. **Build unified target table.** Cross-reference CPU hotspots with memory allocators and GC impact. Identify multi-domain targets. **Update HANDOFF.md** Hotspot Summary.
|
||||
7. **Plan dispatch.** Classify each target as cross-domain (handle yourself) or single-domain (candidate for dispatch). If there are 2+ single-domain targets in the same domain, consider dispatching a domain agent.
|
||||
8. **Enter the experiment loop.**
|
||||
|
||||
### CI mode
|
||||
|
||||
CI mode is triggered when the prompt contains "CI" context (e.g., "This is a CI run triggered by PR #N"). It follows the same full pipeline as "Starting fresh" with these differences:
|
||||
|
||||
- **No branch creation.** Stay on the current branch (the PR branch). Do NOT create `codeflash/optimize`.
|
||||
- **Push to remote after completion.** After all optimizations are committed and verified:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git push origin HEAD
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **All other steps are identical.** Setup, unified profiling, experiment loop, benchmarks, verification, pre-submit review, adversarial review -- nothing is skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
### Resuming
|
||||
|
||||
1. Read `.codeflash/HANDOFF.md`, `.codeflash/results.tsv`, `.codeflash/learnings.md`.
|
||||
2. Note what was tried, what worked, and why it stopped -- these constrain your strategy. **Pay special attention to targets marked "not optimizable without modifying library"** -- these are prime candidates for Library Boundary Breaking.
|
||||
3. **Run unified profiling** on the current state to get a fresh cross-domain view. The profile may look very different after previous optimizations.
|
||||
4. **Check for library ceiling.** If >15% of remaining cumtime is in external library internals and the previous session plateaued against that boundary, assess feasibility of a focused replacement (see Library Boundary Breaking).
|
||||
5. **Build unified target table.** Previous work may have shifted the profile. Include library-replacement candidates as targets with domain "structure x cpu".
|
||||
6. **Enter the experiment loop.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Session End (plateau, completion, or user stop)
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATORY** — do ALL of these before reporting `[complete]`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Update `.codeflash/HANDOFF.md`:**
|
||||
- Set Session status to `plateau` or `completed`.
|
||||
- Fill in Stop Reason: why stopped, what was tried last, what remains actionable.
|
||||
- Update Next Steps with concrete recommendations for a future session.
|
||||
- Update Strategy & Decisions with any pivots made and why.
|
||||
- **Under AUTONOMOUS MODE, "what remains actionable" means technical targets for the next automated session — never questions for the user. Before writing any "BLOCKED" status, apply the drill-down protocol in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/blocked-state.md`; a wrapper exit code is never a root cause.**
|
||||
2. **Write `.codeflash/learnings.md`** (append if exists):
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## <date> — deep session on <branch>
|
||||
|
||||
### What worked
|
||||
- <technique> on <target> gave <improvement>
|
||||
|
||||
### What didn't work
|
||||
- <technique> on <target> — <why>
|
||||
|
||||
### Codebase insights
|
||||
- <observation relevant to future sessions>
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Print `[complete] <total experiments, keeps, per-dimension improvements>`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pre-Submit Review
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATORY before sending `[complete]`.** Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/pre-submit-review.md` for the shared checklist. Additional deep-mode checks:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Cross-domain tradeoffs disclosed**: If any experiment improved one dimension at the cost of another, document the tradeoff in commit messages and HANDOFF.md.
|
||||
2. **GC impact verified**: If you claimed GC improvement, verify with JFR GC events (`jdk.G1GarbageCollection`, `jdk.GCPhasePause`) or `-Xlog:gc*`, not just CPU timing.
|
||||
3. **Interaction claims verified**: Every cross-domain interaction you reported must have profiling evidence in BOTH dimensions. "I think this helps memory too" without measurement is not acceptable.
|
||||
4. **JDK version guards**: If your fix depends on JDK 9+/11+/17+/21+ APIs, verify the project's minimum JDK version (from setup.md) supports it.
|
||||
5. **Serialization safety**: If you changed collection types (e.g., `ArrayList` to `EnumSet`, `HashMap` to `Map.of()`), check if the object is serialized anywhere (Java serialization, Jackson, protobuf).
|
||||
|
||||
If you find issues, fix them, re-run tests, and update results.tsv. Note findings in HANDOFF.md under "Pre-submit review findings". Only send `[complete]` after all checks pass.
|
||||
|
||||
## Codex Adversarial Review
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATORY after Pre-Submit Review passes.** Before declaring `[complete]`, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/vendor/codex/scripts/codex-companion.mjs" adversarial-review --scope branch --wait
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- If verdict is `approve`: note in HANDOFF.md under "Adversarial review: passed". Proceed to `[complete]`.
|
||||
- If verdict is `needs-attention`: investigate findings with confidence >= 0.7, fix valid ones, re-run review. Document dismissed findings (confidence < 0.7) in HANDOFF.md with reason.
|
||||
- Only send `[complete]` when review returns `approve` or all remaining findings are documented as non-applicable.
|
||||
|
||||
## PR Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
One PR per optimization. Branch prefix: `perf/`. PR title prefix: `perf:`. Do NOT open PRs unless the user explicitly asks.
|
||||
1. read the prepared session state,
|
||||
2. build the unified target table,
|
||||
3. run experiments with real evidence,
|
||||
4. update HANDOFF/results after each experiment,
|
||||
5. stop when the remaining work is below threshold or genuinely blocked.

## Session Mode Detection
|
||||
|
||||
The user-supplied scoped brief (Part 3 of your prompt) may declare an explicit session mode on its first line:
|
||||
The scoped brief (Part 3 of your prompt) is a routing contract. Forward its `SESSION MODE:`, `REFACTOR SCOPE:`, and `GIT MODE:` lines verbatim to every spawned subagent.
|
||||
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: LARGE-SCALE` — the user wants infrastructure-cost-grade evidence: whole-workload profiling, target methods at ≥1% of workload CPU, end-to-end query-level benchmark confirming the win carries through. Route to `codeflash-java-deep` (default) and FORWARD the mode declaration + the workload profile context (if attached in the brief) to every subagent you spawn.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: LIBRARY PRIMITIVE` — the user is optimizing a primitive (file-format decoder, collection, hash/string utility) whose hotness is implied by its pervasive call pattern. JMH rigor + CI non-overlap + ≥3 named callers is the bar. Route to the appropriate single-domain agent (usually `codeflash-java-cpu`).
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: CROSS-FUNCTION REFACTOR` — legacy explicit mode for a session whose primary target is already known to require multi-method coordinated changes (removing intermediate materialization, loop fusion across call boundaries, monomorphizing dispatch, pipeline allocation elimination). Prefer `codeflash-java-deep` unless the user also explicitly says CPU-only; deep mode must still build workload evidence before dispatching CPU.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: PLUGIN VALIDATION` — the user is testing agent behavior on a fixture, not shipping merge-ready code. Relax rigor gates; the output is being judged for agent-behavior correctness, not merge-readiness.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: LARGE-SCALE` -> route to `codeflash-java-deep`. This mode requires workload-scale evidence, not just micro-bench wins.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: LIBRARY PRIMITIVE` -> route to `codeflash-java-cpu` unless the brief explicitly names a different domain. This mode allows JMH-centered proof for pervasive primitives with named callers.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: CROSS-FUNCTION REFACTOR` -> prefer `codeflash-java-deep`; coordinated multi-method changes are allowed only when the prompt authorizes them.
|
||||
- `SESSION MODE: PLUGIN VALIDATION` -> route according to the target domain, but optimize for behavior validation rather than merge-readiness.
|
||||
|
||||
**If the brief does NOT declare a mode**, assume `LIBRARY PRIMITIVE` for file-format/collection/utility targets and `LARGE-SCALE` for engine/operator/planner targets. Default to LARGE-SCALE when in doubt.
|
||||
|
||||
The scoped brief may also include:
|
||||
|
||||
- `REFACTOR SCOPE: PROFILE-GATED CROSS-FUNCTION ALLOWED` — default for Java large-scale sessions. This is NOT a replacement for `LARGE-SCALE`; it is authorization to attempt cross-function refactors only after profiling proves the win spans multiple methods and the stricter cross-function evidence/test gates are satisfied.
|
||||
- `REFACTOR SCOPE: SINGLE-METHOD ONLY` — user/reviewer wants small local diffs. Do not attempt cross-function refactors; record larger candidates in HANDOFF.md.
|
||||
|
||||
**Forward the session mode and refactor scope verbatim to every spawned subagent.** Subagents rely on these lines to know which acceptance tier applies and whether multi-method refactors are allowed. When you spawn a subagent, prepend your prompt with the `SESSION MODE: <mode>` line and any `REFACTOR SCOPE:` line so the subagent cannot miss them.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mode dispatch is mandatory, not advisory.** If the scoped brief declares `SESSION MODE: LIBRARY PRIMITIVE`, launch `codeflash-java-cpu` unless the brief explicitly names a non-CPU domain. Do not inspect Java source yourself to decide whether the session is blocked or promising. Your job is to run setup, forward the brief, and launch the optimizer subagent. If the optimizer cannot proceed, it must record the blocker with attempted workarounds; router-authored null-result analysis is invalid.
|
||||
If no mode is declared, prefer `LARGE-SCALE` for engine/operator/planner targets and `LIBRARY PRIMITIVE` for utility/decoder/collection targets.

Do not add any other instructions — the router sets up the project, creates the team, launches the optimizer in the background, and coordinates the session. Progress streams directly to the user.
|
||||
|
||||
`LARGE-SCALE` is the default because most Java optimization sessions should find infrastructure-cost-grade wins, not isolated micro-wins. `PROFILE-GATED CROSS-FUNCTION ALLOWED` means the optimizer may attempt a multi-method refactor only after profiling proves a single-method fix cannot capture the win, and only with a committed behavioral-equivalence test, touched call graph, and E2E evidence. Other explicit session modes are `LIBRARY PRIMITIVE`, `CROSS-FUNCTION REFACTOR`, and `PLUGIN VALIDATION`.
|
||||
Do not add any other instructions. The router owns setup, dispatch, coordination, and audit.

|

|
||||
**Non-negotiable: ALWAYS profile before fixing.** You MUST run an actual profiler (cProfile, tracemalloc, or equivalent tool) before making ANY code changes. Reading source code and guessing at bottlenecks is not profiling. Running tests and looking at wall-clock time is not profiling. Your first action after setup must be running the unified profiling script (or equivalent) to get quantified, per-function evidence. Every optimization decision must be backed by profiling data.
|
||||
|
||||
**Non-negotiable: Fix ALL identified issues.** After fixing the dominant bottleneck, re-profile and fix every remaining antipattern visible in the profile or discovered through code analysis — even if its impact is small (0.5% CPU, 2 MiB memory). Trivial antipatterns like JSON round-trips, list-instead-of-set, or string concatenation in loops are worth fixing because the fix is usually one line. Only stop when re-profiling confirms nothing actionable remains AND you have reviewed the code for antipatterns that profiling alone wouldn't catch.
|
||||
**Non-negotiable: keep working through actionable, above-threshold targets.** After fixing the dominant bottleneck, re-profile and continue while the profile still shows meaningful headroom. Do not drift into cosmetic cleanup or tiny cold-code edits just because they are easy.
|
||||
|
||||
**Context management:** Use Explore subagents for codebase investigation. Dispatch domain agents for targeted optimization work (see Team Orchestration). Only read code directly when you are about to edit it yourself. Do NOT run more than 2 background agents simultaneously — over-parallelization leads to timeouts and lost track of results.

For the shared recovery protocol, read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/experiment-loop-base.md`. Deep-mode additions:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Re-profile from scratch.** Your cached mental model may be wrong. Run the unified profiling script fresh.
|
||||
2. **Re-read results.tsv.** Look for patterns: which techniques worked in which domains? Any untried combinations?
|
||||
3. **Try cross-domain combinations.** Combine 2-3 previously successful single-domain techniques.
|
||||
4. **Try the opposite.** If fine-grained fixes keep failing, try a coarser architectural change that spans domains.
|
||||
5. **Check for missed interactions.** Run gc.callbacks if you haven't — the GC→CPU interaction is the most commonly missed.
|
||||
6. **Re-read original goal.** Has the focus drifted?
|
||||
7. **Consult failure modes.** Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/failure-modes.md` for known workflow failure patterns — deadlocks, silent teammate failures, context loss after compaction, stale results, and ambiguous completion criteria. These are structural problems that look like being stuck but have specific recovery procedures.
|
||||
|
||||
If still stuck after 3 more experiments, **stop and report** with a comprehensive cross-domain analysis of why the code is at its floor.
|
||||
1. Re-run the unified profiling script from scratch before trusting your cached target table.
|
||||
2. Check whether a supposed CPU problem is really allocation/GC or async-pressure driven.

3. If the workflow itself looks broken, consult `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/failure-modes.md`.

## Stuck State Recovery
|
||||
|
||||
If 5+ consecutive discards (across all strategy rotations), trigger this recovery protocol before giving up:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Re-read all in-scope files from scratch.** Your mental model may have drifted — re-read the actual code, not your cached understanding.
|
||||
2. **Re-read the full results log** (`.codeflash/results.tsv`). Look for patterns: which files/functions appeared in successful experiments (focus there), which techniques worked (try variants on new targets), which approaches failed repeatedly (avoid them).
|
||||
3. **Re-read the original goal.** Has the focus drifted from what the user asked for?
|
||||
4. **Try combining 2-3 previously successful changes** that might compound.
|
||||
5. **Try the opposite** of what hasn't worked. If fine-grained optimizations keep failing, try a coarser architectural change. If local changes keep failing, try a cross-function refactor.
|
||||
6. **Check git history for hints**: `git log --oneline -20 --stat` — do successful commits cluster in specific files or patterns?
|
||||
|
||||
If recovery still produces no improvement after 3 more experiments, **stop and report** with a summary of what was tried and why the codebase appears to be at its optimization floor for this domain.
|
||||
If 5+ consecutive discards occur, apply the recovery protocol in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/experiment-loop-base.md` before giving up. Use `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared/failure-modes.md` if the problem looks like workflow breakdown rather than target-level plateau.

## Session Start — Common Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Read setup.** Read `.codeflash/setup.md` for the runner, language version, and test command. Read `.codeflash/conventions.md` if it exists. Also check for org-level conventions at `../conventions.md` (project-level overrides org-level). Read `.codeflash/learnings.md` if it exists — these are discoveries from previous sessions that prevent repeating dead ends. Read CLAUDE.md. Use the runner from setup.md everywhere you see `$RUNNER`.
|
||||
2. **Confirm optimization branch.** The router creates or switches to `codeflash/optimize` before launching you. If you are not already on that branch, you may `git checkout codeflash/optimize` if it exists. Do NOT create branches yourself; report a router setup gap if the branch is missing.
|
||||
2. **Confirm git mode.** Read `.codeflash/conventions.md` and your launch prompt for any `GIT MODE:` line. If git mode says `NO-BRANCH NO-COMMIT`, stay on the current branch and do not create, switch, or commit anything. Otherwise, the router creates or switches to `codeflash/optimize` before launching you. If you are not already on that branch, you may `git checkout codeflash/optimize` if it exists. Do NOT create branches yourself; report a router setup gap if the branch is missing.
|
||||
3. **Initialize HANDOFF.md** with environment and discovery.
