The last chapter stepped outside VS Code — JetBrains, then the terminal footnote — and the point of it was that almost nothing you built is tied to one editor. That’s a good note to end the touring on, because this chapter isn’t a tour. It’s the part where everything you learned separately gets used together.
Every chapter so far introduced one primitive, in isolation, on the slice of the job that needed it. Modes in their own chapter. Permissions in theirs. The cloud agent in its own. That’s the right way to learn the moves — one at a time, named, with the reasoning made explicit. But it’s not how a day works. A real day doesn’t hand you “now a Plan-mode task,” then “now a permissions decision.” It hands you a shared-lib bug before standup and a feature request after lunch and an interruption in between, and you make all those calls — surface, mode, permission, reasoning — without announcing them. This chapter is what that looks like when the moves have gone quiet.
