/optimize

Transform a work item into a token-efficient format optimized for LLM context windows.

Input

Provide the work item via one of:

• URL: $ARGUMENTS (e.g., "https://github.com/org/repo/issues/123")
• Pasted content: Copy the work item details into the chat
• File path: Path to a file containing work item details

Output Structure

# {Work Item ID}: {title}

## Context
{1-2 sentence summary}

## Files
- {file paths with glob patterns}

## Changes
1. {file}: {action}

## Verify
- {non-obvious verification step}

Transformation Rules

1. Title

• Keep as-is (titles are usually already concise)
• Output: # {ID}: {title}

2. Description to Context + Files + Changes

Context: Compress background/architecture to 1-2 sentences Files: Extract file paths, compress with glob patterns Changes: Convert scope items to file: action format

3. Acceptance Criteria to Verify

Remove obvious/implicit criteria:

• "Deployment succeeds"
• "No downtime"
• "Tests pass"
• "Code reviewed"
• "PR merged"

Keep non-obvious verification:

• Specific HTTP status codes
• Portal/UI status checks
• Security constraints
• Integration behaviors

4. File Path Compression

Before	After
routes/dev-routes.bicep, routes/test-routes.bicep, routes/prod-routes.bicep	routes/{dev,test,prod}-routes.bicep
src/components/Button.tsx, src/components/Input.tsx	src/components/{Button,Input}.tsx

5. Changes = Actions

Each entry: {file}: {what to change}

Bad: "Update the container app configuration" Good: "container-app.bicep: set ingress.external = false"

6. Terse Language

• No articles ("the", "a") unless needed for clarity
• No filler ("In order to", "This will")
• Use arrows: "external -> internal", "HTTP -> HTTPS"

Example Transformation

Before (~280 tokens)

Description: Change Container Apps ingress from external to internal,
update Front Door origins to use Private Link.

Scope:
- Change Container Apps ingress from external to internal
- Update Front Door origins to use Private Link

Files to modify:
- infra/bicep/resources/container-app.bicep
- infra/bicep/resources/front-door-route.bicep
- infra/bicep/routes/dev-routes.bicep
- infra/bicep/routes/test-routes.bicep
- infra/bicep/routes/prod-routes.bicep

ACs:
- Container Apps ingress is configured as internal
- Front Door origins updated to use Private Link
- Direct access returns 403/404
- Deployment succeeds without downtime

After (~100 tokens)

# 1357: Container Apps Internal Ingress

## Context
Container Apps -> internal ingress. External traffic via Front Door + Private Link.

## Files
- infra/bicep/resources/container-app.bicep
- infra/bicep/resources/front-door-route.bicep
- infra/bicep/routes/{dev,test,prod}-routes.bicep

## Changes
1. container-app.bicep: `ingress.external` = false
2. front-door-route.bicep: origins use Private Link
3. *-routes.bicep: consistent Private Link config

## Verify
- Direct URL -> 403/404
- Front Door URL -> 200
- Private Link status = Approved
