Cs Trick

This is a prescription reference system that captures reusable programming patterns, library APIs, and operational techniques as searchable markdown files. It forces you to actually grep the codebase before writing anything down, so tricks stay grounded in real project code instead of floating abstractions. Three types: pattern for design approaches, library for framework usage and gotchas, technique for commands and tooling recipes. The workflow is structured around user prompts like "record this trick" but honestly the best part is Phase 2, where it refuses to skip code investigation even when you're lazy about it. Updates existing tricks instead of piling up duplicates. If you've ever lost track of "how we do Prisma transactions here" or "that jq incantation for nested JSON," this keeps those answers in one place with actual file paths attached.
