Guide structured design thinking through 5 progressive levels before any code is written. Levels: Capabilities, Components, Interactions, Contracts, Implementation. Use when building new features, refactoring significant code, designing modules, or when the user says 'design this', 'architect this', 'let's think before coding', 'walk me through the design', or 'whiteboard this'. For simple utilities or single-component tasks, enter at Level 4 (Contracts). Do not use for quick bug patches.
