Repo grounding

Run from the target repository or pass --cwd. Grounding and session lookup use that directory, so selecting the correct root is the first safety decision.

BuildStax searches for relevant files and established patterns before writing. It gathers the smallest context that supports a correct change instead of loading the entire repository into a prompt.

Check the working tree before a task and review it afterward. Unrelated modifications should remain untouched and should not be folded into the generated change.

git status --short
buildstax "inspect the failing test before proposing a fix"
git diff --stat
