APED-zoom-out prevents teams from drifting into implementation details by quickly restoring the original problem framing so you can decide whether to continue, re-anchor, or stop.
state.yaml, lessons.md, recent decisions, and recent commits (plus the original PRD/brief/ticket or the first user message) to ground the re-orientation.Use aped-zoom-out when you want a broader view of whether the current work still matches the original goal.

Goal alignment drift detection compares your original product requirements against recent commits and decisions. It reviews your project state to identify when implementation work no longer matches the intended outcome, providing a concise orientation message.
Re-anchoring a developer workflow involves reviewing recent state files and decisions to restore the original problem framing. This process correlates implementation drift with commit pointers, producing a short orientation message to help you decide whether to continue, re-anchor, or stop.
Decision traceability works by correlating recent architecture decisioning pointers with current state changes. It reads available state files and lessons logs to trace how and when implementation drifted from the original goal, ensuring you can validate the current trajectory.
Yes, you can get a broader view without modifying files. The process reads state and lessons files to analyze decision traceability, then produces a read-only, four-bullet orientation message with a drift-aware recommendation, making no state changes or writing any artefacts.
You should use a zoom out approach whenever you request a broader view, lose context, or doubt that current changes solve the right problem. It is ideal for detecting drift across any project phase when you suspect work is no longer aligned with the intended outcome.
