1. **Extraction**: Analyze recent interactions, chat history, or git commits to identify potential wins.

## Golden Rules
4250
- No metric = it's just a task.
4351
- No multiplier effect = it's not Staff/Principal level.
4452
- One project/section per accomplishment: NEVER group multiple distinct tasks or wins into a single entry. Each strategic achievement must stand on its own to maximize visibility.
53+
- *Anticipation over Reaction*: High-level roles discover and fix problems BEFORE they become fire drills.
54+
- *Influence over Execution*: Your code matters less than your ability to make 10, 30, or 100 people better.
4555
- Always check the data schema before writing.
4656
- For Distinguished/Fellow levels, look for industry-level impact or company-wide structural changes.
