Process: Techniques Corpus

11 documents filed under process. Every one of them is retrievable by agents through rag_context. All categories.

• Codex Execution Rules

  Rules for using the MechCrate RAG tools to consult architectural guidance, patterns, and code examples before implementing.

• LLM Token & Cache Efficiency Engineering for Agentic Coding

  Evidence-audited mechanics of prompt caching (Anthropic/OpenAI/Gemini, Aug 2026) and what follows for agentic coding shops: the real TTLs (5m/1h — the '90-minute cache' is false), the invalidation hierarchy and cache-safe vs cache-destroying actions, corrected delegation economics (Haiku is 5× cheaper than Opus, not 15×), fork-vs-subagent cache behavior, context-rot evidence, and prioritized recommendations with measured case studies (7%→74% hit rate, $37.9k miss incident).
