Workflow

1. Read - Get comment content and context
2. Locate - Find the code being discussed
3. Understand - Note constraints/preferences
4. Implement - Make requested changes
5. Verify - Run tests if code changed
6. Report - Summarize resolution

Implementation Principles

• Address the specific feedback
• Maintain existing code style
• Don't break other functionality
• Follow project conventions
• Ask if feedback is ambiguous
