# Basics

Use the active session while you work.

Examples are patterns, not limits.
Feature sections show common high-value uses, not every valid use.
Adapt requests to the task: combine features, batch related questions, and skip steps when you already have enough context.

Prefer batch DSL instead of one-off inline calls.
One request can inspect/mutate several files/entities and save reusable artifacts when supported.
Use one-off commands only for small checks/changes.

For mutations, aib asks TS/IDE refactors to update affected references and imports.
After a successful mutation, do not manually patch the same imports unless aib reports a follow-up or the build/checks show a real issue.
