# Light Discovery Process for Extensions ## Objective Quickly analyze existing system and integration requirements for feature extensions. ## Focused Discovery Steps ### 1. Extension Point Analysis **Identify Integration Approach**: - Locate existing extension points or interfaces - Determine modification scope (files, components) - Check for existing patterns to follow - Identify backward compatibility requirements ### 2. Dependency Check **Verify Compatibility**: - Check version compatibility of new dependencies - Validate API contracts haven't changed - Ensure no breaking changes in pipeline ### 3. Quick Technology Verification **For New Libraries Only**: - Use WebSearch for official documentation - Verify basic usage patterns - Check for known compatibility issues - Confirm licensing compatibility - Record key findings in `research.md` (technology alignment section) ### 4. Integration Risk Assessment **Quick Risk Check**: - Impact on existing functionality - Performance implications - Security considerations - Testing requirements ## When to Escalate to Full Discovery Switch to full discovery if you find: - Significant architectural changes needed - Complex external service integrations - Security-sensitive implementations - Performance-critical components - Unknown or poorly documented dependencies ## Output Requirements - Clear integration approach (note boundary impacts in `research.md`) - List of files/components to modify - New dependencies with versions - Integration risks and mitigations - Testing focus areas
