Codex has a repo-specific skill named `panopainter-code-navigation`. Use it when
following C++ symbols, finding symbol families with regular expressions, tracing
service/interface wiring, or checking platform/backend boundary usage.
Reach for `--name-regex`, `--detail-regex`, or `--path-regex` before broad
`rg` searches when a refactor depends on symbol identity, generated-style name
families, signatures, or platform/backend path slices.
For C++ refactors, use the skill before broad `rg` searches when the question
depends on symbol identity rather than plain text. Reach for `--name-regex`,
`--detail-regex`, or `--path-regex` when looking for generated-style name
families, override groups, command/service families, signatures, or
platform/backend path slices. Use normal `rg` for docs, build files, comments,
string literals, generated command names, or exact non-C++ text.
Prefer compiler-aware navigation when following C++ symbols across the legacy
flat source tree and extracted components:
