+OPTIMIZATION.md - Token Usage & Subagent Strategy
+
+## SUBAGENT USAGE STRATEGY
+
+Subagents run in separate contexts and preserve main conversation tokens.
+
+### When to Use Subagents
+
+**Use Subagents for:**
+- Large-scale codebase exploration and analysis
+- Complex multi-step investigations across many files
+- Detailed code pattern searches and refactoring analysis
+- Gathering comprehensive information before main conversation work
+- When total tokens would exceed 30,000 in main conversation
+
+**Keep in Main Conversation:**
+- Direct file edits (1-3 files)
+- Simple code changes and debugging
+- Architecture decisions
+- Security reviews and approvals
+- User-facing responses and recommendations
+- Questions requiring reasoning about codebase
+- Frontend UI work (use `frontend-design` skill for new components)
+
+### Subagent Types & When to Use
+
+**Explore Agent** (Haiku 3.5)
+- Codebase exploration and file discovery
+- Pattern searching across large codebases
+- Gathering information about file structure
+- Finding references and relationships
+
+**General-Purpose Agent** (Haiku 3.5)
+- Multi-step code analysis tasks
+- Summarizing findings from exploration
+- Complex searches requiring multiple strategies
+- Collecting data for main conversation decisions
+
+---
+
+## MODEL SELECTION STRATEGY
+
+### Main Conversation (Sonnet 4.5)
+- **Always use Sonnet 4.5 in main conversation**
+- Direct file edits and modifications
+- Architecture and design decisions
+- Security analysis and approvals
+- Complex reasoning and recommendations
+- Final user responses
+
+### Subagent Models
+
+**Haiku 4.5** (Default for subagents)
+- Code exploration and pattern searching
+- File discovery and structure analysis
+- Simple codebase investigations
+- Gathering information and summarizing
+- Task: Use Haiku first for subagent work
+
+**Sonnet 4.5** (For subagents - when needed)
+- Security-critical analysis within subagents
+- Complex architectural decisions needed in exploration
+- High-risk code analysis
+- When exploration requires advanced reasoning
+
+---
+
+## RATE LIMITING GUIDANCE
+
+### API Call Throttling
+- 5 seconds minimum between API calls
+- 10 seconds minimum between web searches
+- Batch similar work whenever possible
+- If you hit 429 error: STOP and wait 5 minutes
+
+### Budget Management
+- Track tokens used across all agents
+- Main conversation should stay under 100,000 tokens
+- Subagent work can extend to 50,000 tokens per agent
+- Batch multiple subagent tasks together when possible
+
+---
+
+## TOKEN PRESERVATION RULES
+
+### Best Practices for Long-Running Conversations
+
+**In Main Conversation:**
+1. Start with subagent for exploration (saves ~20,000 tokens)
+2. Request subagent summarize findings
+3. Use summary to inform main conversation edits/decisions
+4. Keep main conversation focused on decisions and actions
+
+**Information Gathering:**
+- Use subagents to explore before asking for analysis in main conversation
+- Have subagent provide condensed summaries (250-500 words max)
+- Main conversation uses summary + provides feedback/decisions
+
+**File Editing:**
+- For <3 files: Keep in main conversation
+- For 3+ files: Split between subagent (finding/analysis) and main (approval/execution)
+- Simple edits (1-5 lines per file): Main conversation
+- Complex refactoring (10+ lines per file): Subagent analysis + main approval
+
+**Code Review Workflow:**
+1. Subagent explores and analyzes code patterns
+2. Subagent flags issues and suggests improvements
+3. Main conversation reviews suggestions
+4. Main conversation executes approved changes
+
+### Token Budget Allocation Example
+- Main conversation: 0-100,000 tokens (soft limit)
+- Per subagent task: 0-50,000 tokens
+- Critical work (security): Use Sonnet in main conversation
+- Exploratory work: Use Explore agent (Haiku) in subagent
+
+---
+
+## DECISION TREE
+
+```
+Is this a direct file edit request?
+├─ YES (1-3 files, <10 lines each) → Main conversation
+├─ NO
+└─ Is this exploratory analysis?
+   ├─ YES (finding files, patterns) → Use Explore agent (Haiku)
+   ├─ NO
+   └─ Is this complex multi-step work?
+      ├─ YES (3+ steps, many files) → Use General agent (Haiku)
+      ├─ NO
+      └─ Is this security-critical?
+         ├─ YES → Main conversation (Sonnet)
+         └─ NO → Subagent (Haiku) or Main conversation
+```
+
+---
+
+## SUMMARY
+
+**Main Conversation (You):** Architecture, decisions, edits, reviews
+**Subagents:** Exploration, analysis, information gathering
+**Sonnet 4.5:** Security, complexity, final decisions
+**Haiku 4.5:** Exploration, gathering, analysis support

+# CVE Dashboard - Color Scheme Modernization
+
+## Overview
+Successfully modernized the color scheme from retro 80s/neon arcade aesthetic to a professional, sophisticated tactical intelligence platform look.
+
+## Color Palette Changes
+
+### Before (Neon/Retro)
+- **Accent**: `#00D9FF` - Bright cyan (too neon)
+- **Warning**: `#FFB800` - Bright yellow/orange (too saturated)
+- **Danger**: `#FF3366` - Neon pink/red
+- **Success**: `#00FF88` - Bright green (too bright)
+- **Background Dark**: `#0A0E27`, `#131937`, `#1E2749`
+
+### After (Modern Professional)

+
+### Key Changes
+
+#### Severity Badges
+- **Critical**: Neon pink → Modern red with refined glow
+- **High**: Bright yellow → Amber with warm tones
+- **Medium**: Bright cyan → Sky blue professional
+- **Low**: Bright green → Emerald sophisticated
+
+#### Interactive Elements
+- **Buttons**: Reduced glow from 25px to 20px radius, lowered opacity
+- **Input Fields**: More subtle focus states, refined borders
+- **Cards**: Gentler hover effects, professional elevation
+- **Stat Cards**: Refined top accent lines, subtle glows
+
+#### Layout Components
+- **Wiki Panel**: Updated to emerald accent with professional borders
+- **Calendar**: Sky blue accent with refined styling
+- **Tickets Panel**: Amber accent maintaining urgency without neon feel
+- **CVE Cards**: Slate-based gradients with professional depth
+
+## Technical Implementation
