+
+# DEPENDENCY
+Source review prompt (for generating the implementation plan if missing):
+- .github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md
+
+Required plan file (single source of truth):
+- Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/implementation-plan.md
+
+## Dependency Handling
+1) If `implementation-plan.md` exists → proceed.
+2) If missing → run the review prompt:
+   - Invoke: `.github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md`
+   - Pass: `issue_number={{issue_number}}`
+   - Then re-check for `implementation-plan.md`.
+3) If still missing → stop and generate:
+   - `Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/manual-steps.md` containing:
+     “implementation-plan.md not found; please run .github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md for #{{issue_number}}.”
+
+# GOAL
+For **#{{issue_number}}**:
+- Use implementation-plan.md as the single authority.
+- Apply code and test changes directly in the repository.
+- Produce a PR-ready description.
+
+# OUTPUT FILES
+1) Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/pr-description.md
+2) Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/manual-steps.md   # only if human interaction or external setup is required
+
+# EXECUTION RULES
+1) Read implementation-plan.md and execute:
+   - Layers & Files → edit/create as listed
+   - Pattern Choices → follow repository conventions
+   - Fundamentals (perf, security, compatibility, accessibility)
+   - Logging & Exceptions
+   - Telemetry (only if explicitly included in the plan)
+   - Risks & Mitigations
+   - Tests to Add
+2) Locate affected files via `rg` or `git grep`.
+3) Add/update tests to enforce the fixed behavior.
+4) If any ambiguity exists, add:
+// TODO(Human input needed): <clarification needed>
+5) Verify locally: build & tests run successfully.
+
+# pr-description.md should include:
+- Title: `Fix: <short summary> (#{{issue_number}})`
+- What changed and why the fix works
+- Files or modules touched
+- Risks & mitigations (implemented)
+- Tests added/updated and how to run them
+- Telemetry behavior (if applicable)
+- Validation / reproduction steps

+
+## Suggested Actions
+Provide actionable recommendations for issue triage and assignment:
+
+### A) Requirement Clarification (if Clarity score <50)
+**When Requirement Clarity (Dimension D) is Medium or Low:**
+- Identify specific gaps in issue description: missing repro steps, unclear expected behavior, undefined acceptance criteria, missing non-functional requirements
+- Draft 3-5 clarifying questions to post as issue comment
+- Suggest additional information needed: screenshots, logs, environment details, OS version, PowerToys version, error messages
+- If behavior is ambiguous, propose 2-3 interpretation scenarios and ask reporter to confirm
+- Example questions:
+  - "Can you provide exact steps to reproduce this issue?"
+  - "What is the expected behavior vs. what you're actually seeing?"
+  - "Does this happen on Windows 10, 11, or both?"
+  - "Can you attach a screenshot or screen recording?"
+
+### B) Correct Label Suggestions
+- Analyze issue type, module, and severity to suggest missing or incorrect labels
+- Recommend labels from: `Issue-Bug`, `Issue-Feature`, `Issue-Docs`, `Issue-Task`, `Priority-High`, `Priority-Medium`, `Priority-Low`, `Needs-Triage`, `Needs-Author-Feedback`, `Product-<ModuleName>`, etc.
+- If Requirement Clarity is low (<50), add `Needs-Author-Feedback` label
+- If current labels are incorrect or incomplete, provide specific label changes with rationale
+
+### C) Find Similar Issues & Past Fixes
+- Search for similar issues using `gh issue list --search "keywords" --state all --json number,title,state,closedAt`
+- Identify patterns: duplicate issues, related bugs, or similar feature requests
+- For closed issues, find linked PRs that fixed them: check `linkedPullRequests` in issue data
+- Provide 3-5 examples of similar issues with format: `#<number> - <title> (closed by PR #<pr>)` or `(still open)`
+
+### D) Identify Subject Matter Experts
+- Use git blame/log to find who fixed similar issues in the past
+- Search for PR authors who touched relevant files: `git log --all --format='%aN' -- <file_paths> | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -5`
+- Check issue/PR history for frequent contributors to the affected module
+- Suggest 2-3 potential assignees with context: `@<username> - <reason>` (e.g., "fixed similar rendering bug in #12345", "maintains FancyZones module")
+
+### E) Semantic Search for Related Work
+- Use semantic_search tool to find similar issues, code patterns, or past discussions
+- Search queries should include: issue keywords, module names, error messages, feature descriptions
+- Cross-reference semantic results with GitHub issue search for comprehensive coverage
+
+**Output format for Suggested Actions section in overview.md:**

+1) **Problem Framing** — restate problem; current vs expected; scope boundaries.  
+2) **Layers & Files** — layers (UI/domain/data/infra/build). For each, list **files/dirs to modify** and **new files** (exact paths + why). Prefer repo patterns; cite examples/PRs.  
+3) **Pattern Choices** — reuse existing; if new, justify trade-offs & transition.  
+4) **Fundamentals** (brief plan or N/A + reason):
+- Performance (hot paths, allocs, caching/streaming)
+- Security (validation, authN/Z, secrets, SSRF/XSS/CSRF)
+- G11N/L10N (resources, number/date, pluralization)
+- Compatibility (public APIs, formats, OS/runtime/toolchain)
+- Extensibility (DI seams, options/flags, plugin points)
+- Accessibility (roles, labels, focus, keyboard, contrast)
+- SOLID & repo conventions (naming, folders, dependency direction)
+5) **Logging & Exception Handling**
+- Where to log; levels; structured fields; correlation/traces.
+- What to catch vs rethrow; retries/backoff; user-visible errors.
+- **Privacy**: never log secrets/PII; redaction policy.
+6) **Telemetry (optional — business metrics only)**
+- Events/metrics (name, when, props); success signal; privacy/sampling; dashboards/alerts.
+7) **Risks & Mitigations** — flags/canary/shadow-write/config guards.  
+8) **Task Breakdown (agent-ready)** — table (leave a blank line before the header so Markdown renders correctly):
+
+| Task | Intent | Files/Areas | Steps | Tests (brief) | Owner (Agent/Human) | Human interaction needed? (why) |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+9) **Tests to Add (only)**
+- **Unit**: targets, cases (success/edge/error), mocks/fixtures, path, notes.  
+- **UI** (if applicable): flows, locator strategy, env/data/flags, path, flake mitigation.

+description: "gh-driven PR review; per-step Markdown + machine-readable outputs"
+---
+
+# PR Review — gh + stepwise
+
+**Goal**: Given `{{pr_number}}`, run a *one-topic-per-step* review. Write files to `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/` (replace `{{pr_number}}` with the integer). Emit machine‑readable blocks for a GitHub MCP to post review comments.
+
+## PR selection
+Resolve the target PR using these fallbacks in order:
+1. Parse the invocation text for an explicit identifier (first integer following patterns such as a leading hash and digits or the text `PR:` followed by digits).
+2. If no PR is found yet, locate the newest `Generated Files/prReview/_batch/batch-overview-*.md` file (highest timestamp in filename, fallback newest mtime) and take the first entry in its `## PRs` list whose review folder is missing `00-OVERVIEW.md` or contains `__error.flag`.
+3. If the batch file has no pending PRs, query assignments with `gh pr list --assignee @me --state open --json number,updatedAt --limit 20` and pick the most recently updated PR that does not already have a completed review folder.
+4. If still unknown, run `gh pr view --json number` in the current branch and use that result when it is unambiguous.
+5. If every step above fails, prompt the user for a PR number before proceeding.
+
+## Fetch PR data with `gh`
+- `gh pr view {{pr_number}} --json number,baseRefName,headRefName,baseRefOid,headRefOid,changedFiles,files`
+- `gh api repos/:owner/:repo/pulls/{{pr_number}}/files?per_page=250`  # patches for line mapping
+
+### Incremental review workflow
+1. **Check for existing review**: Read `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/00-OVERVIEW.md`
+2. **Extract state**: Parse `Last reviewed SHA:` from review metadata section
+3. **Detect changes**: Run `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber {{pr_number}} -LastReviewedCommitSha {{sha}}`
+4. **Analyze result**:
+   - `NeedFullReview: true` → Review all files in the PR
+   - `NeedFullReview: false` and `IsIncremental: true` → Review only files in `ChangedFiles` array
+   - `ChangedFiles` is empty → No changes, skip review (update iteration history with "No changes since last review")
+5. **Apply smart filtering**: Use the file patterns in smart step filtering table to skip irrelevant steps
+6. **Update metadata**: After completing review, save current `headRefOid` as `Last reviewed SHA:` in `00-OVERVIEW.md`
+
+### Reusable PowerShell scripts
+Scripts live in `.github/review-tools/` to avoid repeated manual approvals during PR reviews:
+
+| Script | Usage |
+| --- | --- |
+| `.github/review-tools/Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1` | Download a repository file at a given ref, optionally with line numbers. |
+| `.github/review-tools/Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` | Fetch the unified diff for a specific file within a pull request via `gh api`. |
+| `.github/review-tools/Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` | Compare last reviewed SHA with current PR head to identify incremental changes. Returns JSON with changed files, new commits, and whether full review is needed. |
+| `.github/review-tools/Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` | Test helper to preview incremental review detection for a PR. Use before running full review to see what changed. |
+
+Always prefer these scripts (or new ones added under `.github/review-tools/`) over raw `gh api` or similar shell commands so the review flow does not trigger interactive approval prompts.
+
+## Output files
+Folder: `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/`
+Files: `00-OVERVIEW.md`, `01-functionality.md`, `02-compatibility.md`, `03-performance.md`, `04-accessibility.md`, `05-security.md`, `06-localization.md`, `07-globalization.md`, `08-extensibility.md`, `09-solid-design.md`, `10-repo-patterns.md`, `11-docs-automation.md`, `12-code-comments.md`, `13-copilot-guidance.md` *(only if guidance md exists).* 
+- **Write-after-step rule:** Immediately after completing each TODO step, persist that step's markdown file before proceeding to the next. Generate `00-OVERVIEW.md` only after every step file has been refreshed for the current run.
+
+## Iteration management
+- Determine the current review iteration by reading `00-OVERVIEW.md` (look for `Review iteration:`). If missing, assume iteration `1`.
+- Extract the last reviewed SHA from `00-OVERVIEW.md` (look for `Last reviewed SHA:` in the review metadata section). If missing, this is iteration 1.
+- **Incremental review detection**:
+  1. Call `.github/review-tools/Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber {{pr_number}} -LastReviewedCommitSha {{last_sha}}` to get delta analysis.
+  2. Parse the JSON result to determine if incremental review is possible (`IsIncremental: true`, `NeedFullReview: false`).
+  3. If force-push detected or first review, proceed with full review of all changed files.
+  4. If incremental, review only the files listed in `ChangedFiles` array and apply smart step filtering (see below).
+- Increment the iteration for each review run and propagate the new value to all step files and the overview.
+- Preserve prior iteration notes by keeping/expanding an `## Iteration history` section in each markdown file, appending the newest summary under `### Iteration <N>`.
+- Summaries should capture key deltas since the previous iteration so reruns can pick up context quickly.
+- **After review completion**, update `Last reviewed SHA:` in `00-OVERVIEW.md` with the current `headRefOid` and update the timestamp.
+
+### Smart step filtering (incremental reviews only)
+When performing incremental review, skip steps that are irrelevant based on changed file types:
+
+| File pattern | Required steps | Skippable steps |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `**/*.cs`, `**/*.cpp`, `**/*.h` | Functionality, Compatibility, Performance, Security, SOLID, Repo patterns, Code comments | (depends on files) |
+| `**/*.resx`, `**/Resources/*.xaml` | Localization, Globalization | Most others |
+| `**/*.md` (docs) | Docs & automation | Most others (unless copilot guidance) |
+| `**/*copilot*.md`, `.github/prompts/*.md` | Copilot guidance, Docs & automation | Most others |
+| `**/*.csproj`, `**/*.vcxproj`, `**/packages.config` | Compatibility, Security, Repo patterns | Localization, Globalization, Accessibility |
+| `**/UI/**`, `**/*View.xaml` | Accessibility, Localization | Performance (unless perf-sensitive controls) |
+
+**Default**: If uncertain or files span multiple categories, run all applicable steps. When in doubt, be conservative and review more rather than less.
+
+## TODO steps (one concern each)
+1) Functionality
+2) Compatibility
+3) Performance
+4) Accessibility
+5) Security
+6) Localization
+7) Globalization
+8) Extensibility
+9) SOLID principles
+10) Repo patterns
+11) Docs & automation coverage for the changes
+12) Code comments
+13) Copilot guidance (conditional): if changed folders contain `*copilot*.md` or `.github/prompts/*.md`, review diffs **against** that guidance and write `13-copilot-guidance.md` (omit if none).
+
+## Per-step file template (use verbatim)
+```md
+# <STEP TITLE>
+**PR:** (populate with PR identifier) — Base:<baseRefName> Head:<headRefName>
+**Review iteration:** ITERATION
+
+## Iteration history
+- Maintain subsections titled `### Iteration N` in reverse chronological order (append the latest at the top) with 2–4 bullet highlights.
+
+### Iteration ITERATION
+- <Latest key point 1>
+- <Latest key point 2>
+
+## Checks executed
+- List the concrete checks for *this step only* (5–10 bullets).

+## Review metadata
+**Last reviewed SHA:** <headRefOid from gh pr view>
+**Last review timestamp:** <ISO8601 timestamp>
+**Review mode:** <Full|Incremental (N files changed since iteration X)>
+**Base ref:** <baseRefName>
+**Head ref:** <headRefName>
+
+## Step results
+Write lines like: `01 Functionality — <OK|Issues|Skipped> (see 01-functionality.md)` … through step 13.
+Mark steps as "Skipped" when using incremental review smart filtering.
+
+## Iteration history
+- Maintain subsections titled `### Iteration N` mirroring the per-step convention with concise deltas and cross-links to the relevant step files.
+- For incremental reviews, list the specific files that changed and which commits were added.
+```
+
+## Line numbers & multi‑file issues
+- Map head‑side lines from `patch` hunks (`@@ -a,b +c,d @@` → new lines `+c..+c+d-1`).
+- For cross‑file issues: set the primary `"file"`, list others in `"related_files"`, and name them in `"body"`.
+
+## Posting (for MCP)
+- Parse all ```mcp-review-comment``` blocks across step files and post as PR review comments.
+- If posting isn’t available, still write all files.
+
+## Constraint
+Read/analyze only; don't modify code. Keep comments small, specific, and fix‑oriented.
+
+**Testing**: Use `.github/review-tools/Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374` to preview incremental detection before running full review.
+
+## Scratch cache for large PRs
+
+Create a local scratch workspace to progressively summarize diffs and reload state across runs.
+
+### Paths
+- Root: `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/__tmp/`
+- Files:
+  - `index.jsonl` — append-only JSON Lines index of artifacts.
+  - `todo-queue.json` — pending items (files/chunks/steps).
+  - `rollup-<step>-v<N>.md` — iterative per-step aggregates.
+  - `file-<hash>.txt` — optional saved chunk text (when needed).
+
+### JSON schema (per line in `index.jsonl`)
+```json
+{"type":"chunk|summary|issue|crosslink",
+ "path":"relative/file.ext","chunk_id":"f-12","step":"functionality|compatibility|...",
+ "base_sha":"...", "head_sha":"...", "range":[start,end], "version":1,
+ "notes":"short text or key:value map", "created_utc":"ISO8601"}
+```
+
+### Phases (stateful; resume-safe)
+0. **Discover** PR + SHAs: `gh pr view <PR> --json baseRefName,headRefName,baseRefOid,headRefOid,files`.
+1. **Chunk** each changed file (head): split into ~300–600 LOC or ~4k chars; stable `chunk_id` = hash(path+start).
+   - Save `chunk` records. Optionally write `file-<hash>.txt` for expensive chunks.
+2. **Summarize** per chunk: intent, APIs, risks per TODO step; emit `summary` records (≤600 tokens each).
+3. **Issues**: convert findings to machine-readable blocks and emit `issue` records (later rendered to step MD).
+4. **Rollups**: build/update `rollup-<step>-v<N>.md` from `summary`+`issue`. Keep prior versions.
+5. **Finalize**: write per-step files + `00-OVERVIEW.md` from rollups. Post comments via MCP if available.
+
+### Re-use & token limits
+- Always **reload** `index.jsonl` first; skip chunks with same `head_sha` and `range`.
+- **Incremental review optimization**: When `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` returns a subset of changed files, load only chunks from those files. Reuse existing chunks/summaries for unchanged files.
+- Prefer re-summarizing only changed chunks; merge chunk summaries → file summaries → step rollups.
+- When context is tight, load only the minimal chunk text (or its saved `file-<hash>.txt`) needed for a comment.
+
+### Original vs diff
+- Fetch base content when needed: prefer `git show <baseRefName>:<path>`; fallback `gh api repos/:owner/:repo/contents/<path>?ref=<base_sha>` (base64).
+- Use patch hunks from `gh api .../pulls/<PR>/files` to compute **head** line numbers.
+
+### Queue-driven loop
+- Seed `todo-queue.json` with all changed files.
+- Process: chunk → summarize → detect issues → roll up.
+- Append to `index.jsonl` after each step; never rewrite previous lines (append-only).
+
+### Hygiene
+- `__tmp/` is implementation detail; do not include in final artifacts.
+- It is safe to delete to force a clean pass; the next run rebuilds it.

+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+    Detects changes between the last reviewed commit and current head of a pull request.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+    This script compares a previously reviewed commit SHA with the current head of a pull request
+    to determine what has changed. It helps enable incremental reviews by identifying new commits
+    and modified files since the last review iteration.
+
+    The script handles several scenarios:
+    - First review (no previous SHA provided)
+    - No changes (current SHA matches last reviewed SHA)
+    - Force-push detected (last reviewed SHA no longer in history)
+    - Incremental changes (new commits added since last review)
+
+.PARAMETER PullRequestNumber
+    The pull request number to analyze.
+
+.PARAMETER LastReviewedCommitSha
+    The commit SHA that was last reviewed. If omitted, this is treated as a first review.
+
+.PARAMETER RepositoryOwner
+    The GitHub repository owner. Defaults to "microsoft".
+
+.PARAMETER RepositoryName
+    The GitHub repository name. Defaults to "PowerToys".
+
+.OUTPUTS
+    JSON object containing:
+    - PullRequestNumber: The PR number being analyzed
+    - CurrentHeadSha: The current head commit SHA
+    - LastReviewedSha: The last reviewed commit SHA (if provided)
+    - BaseRefName: Base branch name
+    - HeadRefName: Head branch name
+    - IsIncremental: Boolean indicating if incremental review is possible
+    - NeedFullReview: Boolean indicating if a full review is required
+    - ChangedFiles: Array of files that changed (filename, status, additions, deletions)
+    - NewCommits: Array of commits added since last review (sha, message, author, date)
+    - Summary: Human-readable description of changes
+
+.EXAMPLE
+    .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374
+    Analyzes PR #42374 with no previous review (first review scenario).
+
+.EXAMPLE
+    .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -LastReviewedCommitSha "abc123def456"
+    Compares current PR state against the last reviewed commit to identify incremental changes.
+

+.SYNOPSIS
+    Tests and previews incremental review detection for a pull request.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+    This helper script validates the incremental review detection logic by analyzing an existing
+    PR review folder. It reads the last reviewed SHA from the overview file, compares it with
+    the current PR state, and displays detailed information about what has changed.
+    
+    This is useful for:
+    - Testing the incremental review system before running a full review
+    - Understanding what changed since the last review iteration
+    - Verifying that review metadata was properly recorded
+
+.PARAMETER PullRequestNumber
+    The pull request number to test incremental review detection for.
+
+.PARAMETER RepositoryOwner
+    The GitHub repository owner. Defaults to "microsoft".
+
+.PARAMETER RepositoryName
+    The GitHub repository name. Defaults to "PowerToys".
+
+.OUTPUTS
+    Colored console output displaying:
+    - Current and last reviewed commit SHAs
+    - Whether incremental review is possible
+    - List of new commits since last review
+    - List of changed files with status indicators
+    - Recommended review strategy

+```
+
+**Output:** Unified diff showing changes made to the file.
+
+### Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1
+
+Compares the last reviewed commit with the current PR head to identify incremental changes.
+
+**Purpose:** Enable efficient incremental reviews by detecting what changed since the last review iteration.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `PullRequestNumber` (required): Pull request number
+- `LastReviewedCommitSha` (optional): SHA of the commit that was last reviewed. If omitted, assumes first review.
+- `RepositoryOwner` (optional): Repository owner. Default: "microsoft"

+```
+
+**Output:** JSON object with detailed change analysis:
+```json
+{
+  "PullRequestNumber": 42374,
+  "CurrentHeadSha": "xyz789abc123",
+  "LastReviewedSha": "abc123def456",
+  "IsIncremental": true,
+  "NeedFullReview": false,
+  "ChangedFiles": [
+    {
+      "Filename": "src/modules/cmdpal/main.cpp",
+      "Status": "modified",
+      "Additions": 15,
+      "Deletions": 8,
+      "Changes": 23
+    }
+  ],
+  "NewCommits": [
+    {
+      "Sha": "def456",
+      "Message": "Fix memory leak",
+      "Author": "John Doe",
+      "Date": "2025-11-07T10:30:00Z"
+    }
+  ],
+  "Summary": "Incremental review: 1 new commit(s), 1 file(s) changed since SHA abc123d"
+}
+```
+
+**Scenarios Handled:**
+- **No LastReviewedCommitSha**: Returns `NeedFullReview: true` (first review)
+- **SHA matches current HEAD**: Returns empty `ChangedFiles` (no changes)
+- **Force-push detected**: Returns `NeedFullReview: true` (SHA not in history)
+- **Incremental changes**: Returns list of changed files and new commits
+
+### Test-IncrementalReview.ps1
+
+Helper script to test and preview incremental review detection before running the full review.
+
+**Purpose:** Validate incremental review functionality and preview what changed.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `PullRequestNumber` (required): Pull request number
+- `RepositoryOwner` (optional): Repository owner. Default: "microsoft"
+- `RepositoryName` (optional): Repository name. Default: "PowerToys"

+.\Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374
+```
+
+**Output:** Colored console output showing:
+- Current and last reviewed SHAs
+- Whether incremental review is possible
+- List of new commits and changed files
+- Recommended review strategy
+
+## Workflow Integration
+
+These scripts integrate with the PR review prompt (`.github/prompts/review-pr.prompt.md`).

+
+1. **Initial Review (Iteration 1)**
+   - Review prompt processes the PR
+   - Creates `Generated Files/prReview/{PR}/00-OVERVIEW.md`
+   - Includes review metadata section with current HEAD SHA
+
+2. **Subsequent Reviews (Iteration 2+)**
+   - Review prompt reads `00-OVERVIEW.md` to get last reviewed SHA
+   - Calls `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` to detect what changed
+   - If incremental:
+     - Reviews only changed files
+     - Skips irrelevant review steps (e.g., skip Localization if no `.resx` files changed)
+   - Uses `Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` to get patches for changed files
+   - Updates `00-OVERVIEW.md` with new SHA and iteration number
+
+### Manual Testing Workflow
+
+Preview changes before review:
+```powershell
+# Check what changed in PR #42374 since last review
+.\Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374
+
+# Get incremental changes programmatically
+$changes = .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -LastReviewedCommitSha "abc123" | ConvertFrom-Json
+
+if (-not $changes.NeedFullReview) {
+    Write-Host "Only need to review $($changes.ChangedFiles.Count) files"
+    
+    # Review each changed file
+    foreach ($file in $changes.ChangedFiles) {
+        Write-Host "Reviewing $($file.Filename)..."
+        .\Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -FilePath $file.Filename
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Error Handling and Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Requirements
+
+All scripts:
+- Exit with code 1 on error
+- Write detailed error messages to stderr
+- Require `gh` CLI to be installed and authenticated
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**Error: "gh not found"**
+- **Solution**: Install GitHub CLI from https://cli.github.com/ and run `gh auth login`
+
+**Error: "Failed to query GitHub API"**
+- **Solution**: Verify `gh` authentication with `gh auth status`
+- **Solution**: Check PR number exists and you have repository access
+
+**Error: "PR not found"**
+- **Solution**: Verify the PR number is correct and still exists
+- **Solution**: Ensure repository owner and name are correct
+
+**Error: "SHA not found" or "Force-push detected"**
+- **Explanation**: Last reviewed SHA no longer exists in branch history (force-push occurred)
+- **Solution**: A full review is required; incremental review not possible
+
+**Tests show "FAIL" but functionality works**
+- **Explanation**: Some tests may show exit code failures even when logic is correct
+- **Solution**: Check test output message - if it says "Correctly detected", functionality is working
+
+**Error: "Could not find insertion point"**
+- **Explanation**: Overview file doesn't have expected "**Changed files:**" line
+- **Solution**: Verify overview file format is correct or regenerate it
+
+### Verification Checklist
+
+After setup, verify:
+- [ ] `Run-ReviewToolsTests.ps1` shows 9+ tests passing
+- [ ] `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` returns valid JSON
+- [ ] `Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` analyzes a PR without errors
+- [ ] `Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1` downloads files correctly
+- [ ] `Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` retrieves patches correctly
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### For Review Authors
+
+1. **Test before full review**: Use `Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` to preview changes 
+2. **Check for force-push**: Review the analysis output - force-pushes require full reviews
+3. **Smart step filtering**: Skip review steps for file types that didn't change
+
+### For Script Users
+
+1. **Use absolute paths**: When specifying folders, use absolute paths to avoid ambiguity
+2. **Check exit codes**: Scripts exit with code 1 on error - check `$LASTEXITCODE` in automation
+3. **Parse JSON output**: Use `ConvertFrom-Json` to work with structured output from `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1`
+4. **Handle empty results**: Check `ChangedFiles.Count` before iterating
+
+### Performance Tips
+
+1. **Batch operations**: When reviewing multiple PRs, collect all PR numbers and process in batch
+2. **Cache raw files**: Download baseline files once and reuse for multiple comparisons
+3. **Filter early**: Use incremental detection to skip unnecessary file reviews
+4. **Parallel processing**: Consider processing independent PRs in parallel
+
+## Integration with AI Review Systems
+
+These tools are designed to work with AI-powered review systems:
+
+1. **Copilot Instructions**: This file serves as reference documentation for GitHub Copilot
+2. **Structured Output**: JSON output from scripts is easily parsed by AI systems
+3. **Incremental Intelligence**: AI can focus on changed files for more efficient reviews
+4. **Metadata Tracking**: Review iterations are tracked for context-aware suggestions
+
+### Example AI Integration
+
+```powershell
+# Get incremental changes
+$analysis = .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber $PR | ConvertFrom-Json
+
+# Feed to AI review system
+$reviewPrompt = @"
+Review the following changed files in PR #$PR:
+$($analysis.ChangedFiles | ForEach-Object { "- $($_.Filename) ($($_.Status))" } | Out-String)
+
+Focus on incremental changes only. Previous review was at SHA $($analysis.LastReviewedSha).
+"@
+
+# Execute AI review with context
+Invoke-AIReview -Prompt $reviewPrompt -Files $analysis.ChangedFiles
+```
+
+## Support and Further Information
+
+For detailed script documentation, use PowerShell's help system:
+```powershell
+Get-Help .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -Full
+Get-Help .\Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -Detailed
+```

+# Issue/PR commands
+
+The PowerToys repository uses some special keywords to help manage issues and pull requests. Here is a list of the most important commands you can use in issue and PR descriptions or comments.
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `/azp run` | Triggers the Azure Pipelines CI build for the current PR. Useful if you want to re-run the build without creating a new commit. |
+| `/bugreport` / `/reportbug` | Adds a comment with a manual for the Bug Report Tool, which helps users collect logs and system information for debugging purposes. It requests to upload this file and adds the `Needs-Author-Feedback` label. |
+| `/feedbackhub` | Adds a comment with a link to the Feedback Hub app on Windows, where users can submit feedback about PowerToys. Closes the issue and adds the `Resolution-Please File on Feedback Hub` label. |
+| `/dup #...` / `/duplicate #...` / `/dup https://...` / `/duplicate https://...` | Marks the current issue as a duplicate of another issue. It closes the current issue and applies the `Resolution-Duplicate` label. Replace `#...` with the issue number or a link to the issue. |
+| `/needinfo` | Adds the `Needs-Author-Feedback` label to the issue or PR, indicating that more information is needed from the author. |
+| `/helped` | Closes the issue and adds the `Resolution-Helped User` label. Furthermore a comment is added with a link to the PowerToys user documentation. |
+| `/loc` | Adds a comment informing the user that the issue was forwarded to the localization team and will soon be fixed. It adds the `Loc-Sent To Team` label. |
+
+## Defining new commands
+
+Most of these commands are using the [Microsoft GitHub Policy Service](https://github.com/apps/microsoft-github-policy-service) bot. Its commands are defined in the [PowerToys policy configuration file](/.github/policies/resourceManagement.yml).
+
+## Other automated tasks
+
+### Automatic labeling
+
+The bot can automatically apply the correct `product-...` label for any opened issue.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> This feature is currently only available for the Workspaces module as a test.
+
+### The `Needs-Author-Feedback` label
+
+If an issue has this label and had no activity for 5 days, the bot will post a comment reminding the author to provide the needed information. It also adds the `Status-No recent activity` label. If no further activity occurs for another 5 days, the bot will close the issue.
+
+### Filtering users that want to contribute
+
+If a user utters their intention to contribute (e.g., by using the phrase "I want to contribute" in an issue or PR), the bot will add a comment with a link to the ["Would you like to contribute to PowerToys?" thread](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/28769).

-## Localization on the pipeline (CDPX)
-[The localization step](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/86d77103e9c69686c297490acb04775d43ef8b76/.pipelines/pipeline.user.windows.yml#L45-L52) is run on the pipeline before the solution is built. This step runs the [build-localization](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/.pipelines/build-localization.cmd) script, which generates resx files for all the projects with localization enabled using the `Localization.XLoc` package.
-
-The [`Localization.XLoc`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/86d77103e9c69686c297490acb04775d43ef8b76/.pipelines/build-localization.cmd#L24-L25) tool is run on the repo root, and it checks for all occurrences of `LocProject.json`. Each localized project has a `LocProject.json` file in the project root, which contains the location of the English resx file, list of languages for localization, and the output path where the localized resx files are to be copied to. In addition to this, some other parameters can be set, such as whether the language ID should be added as a folder in the file path or in the file name. When the CDPX pipeline is run, the localization team is notified of changes in the English resx files. For each project with localization enabled, a `loc` folder (see [this](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/tree/main/src/modules/launcher/Microsoft.Launcher/loc) for example) is created in the same directory as the `LocProject.json` file. The folder contains language specific folders which in turn have a nested folder path equivalent to `OutputPath` in the `LocProject.json`. Each of these folders contain one `lcl` file. The `lcl` files contain the English resources along with their translation for that language. These are described in more detail in the [Lcl files section](#lcl-files). Once the `.resx` files are generated, they will be used during the `Build PowerToys` step for localized versions of the modules.
-
-Since the localization script requires certain nuget packages, the [`restore-localization`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/.pipelines/restore-localization.cmd) script is run before running `build-localization` to install all the required packages. This script must [run in the `restore` step](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/86d77103e9c69686c297490acb04775d43ef8b76/.pipelines/pipeline.user.windows.yml#L37-L39) of pipeline because [the host is network isolated](https://onebranch.visualstudio.com/Pipeline/_wiki/wikis/Pipeline.wiki/2066/Consuming-Packages-in-a-CDPx-Pipeline?anchor=overview) at the `build` step. The [Toolset package source](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/86d77103e9c69686c297490acb04775d43ef8b76/.pipelines/pipeline.user.windows.yml#L23) is used for this.
-
-The process and variables that can be tweaked on the pipeline are described in more detail on [onebranch (account required) under Localization](https://onebranch.visualstudio.com/Pipeline/_wiki/wikis/Pipeline.wiki/290/Localization).
-
-The localized resource dlls for C# projects are added to the MSI only for build on the pipeline. This is done by checking if the [`IsPipeline` variable is defined](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/f92bd6ffd38014c228544bb8d68d0937ce4c2b6d/installer/PowerToysSetup/Product.wxs#L804-L805), which gets defined before [building the installer on the pipeline](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/f92bd6ffd38014c228544bb8d68d0937ce4c2b6d/.pipelines/build-installer.cmd#L4). This is done because the localized resx files are only present on the pipeline, and not having this check would result in the installer project failing to build locally.
-
-## Enabling localization on a new project
-To enable localization on a new project, the first step is to create a file `LocProject.json` in the project root.
-
-For example, for a project in the folder `src\path` where the resx file is present in `resources\Resources.resx`, the LocProject.json file will contain the following:
-```
-{
-    "Projects": [
-        {
-            "LanguageSet": "Azure_Languages",
-            "LocItems": [
-                {
-                    "SourceFile": "src\\path\\resources\\Resources.resx",
-                    "CopyOption": "LangIDOnName",
-                    "OutputPath": "src\\path\\resources"
-                }
-            ]
-        }
-    ]
-}
-```
-The rest of the steps depend on the project type and are covered in the sections below. The steps to add the localized files to the MSI can be found in [Enabling localized MSI for a new project](#Enabling-localized-MSI-for-a-new-project).
-
-### C++
-C++ projects do not support `resx` files, and instead use `rc` files along with `resource.h` files. The CDPX pipeline however doesn't support localizing `rc` files and the other alternative they support is directly translating the resources from the binary which makes it harder to maintain resources. To avoid this, a custom script has been added which expects a resx file and converts the entries to an rc file with a string table and adds resource declarations to a resource.h file so that the resources can be compiled with the C++ project.
-
-If you already have a .rc file, copy the string table to a separate txt file and run the [convert-stringtable-to-resx.ps1](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/tools/build/convert-stringtable-to-resx.ps1) script on it. This script is not very robust to input, and requires the data in a specific format, where `IDS_ResName L"ResourceValue"` and any number of spaces can be present in between. The script converts this file to the format expected by [`resgen`](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/tools/resgen-exe-resource-file-generator#Convert), which will convert it to resx. The resource names are changed from all uppercase to title case, and the `IDS_` prefix is removed. Escape characters might have to be manually replaced, for example .rc files would have escaped double quotes as `""`, so this should be replaced with just `"` before converting to the resx files.
-
-After generating the resx file, rename the existing rc and h files to ProjName.base.rc and resource.base.h. In the rc file remove the string table which is to be localized and in the .h file remove all `#define`s corresponding to localized resources. In the vcxproj of the C++ project, add the following build event:
-```
-<Target Name="GenerateResourceFiles" BeforeTargets="PrepareForBuild">
-    <Exec Command="powershell -NonInteractive -executionpolicy Unrestricted $(SolutionDir)tools\build\convert-resx-to-rc.ps1 $(MSBuildThisFileDirectory) resource.base.h resource.h ProjName.base.rc ProjName.rc" />
-</Target>
-```
-
-This event runs a script which generates a resource.h and ProjName.rc in the `Generated Files` folder using the strings in all the resx files along with the existing information in resource.base.h and ProjName.base.rc. The script is [convert-resx-to-rc.ps1](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/tools/build/convert-resx-to-rc.ps1). The script uses [`resgen`](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/tools/resgen-exe-resource-file-generator#Convert) to convert the resx file to a string table expected in the .rc file format. When the resources are added to the rc file the `IDS_` prefix is added and resource names are in upper case (as it was originally). Any occurrences of `"` in the string resource is escaped as `""` to prevent build errors. The string tables are added to the rc file in the following format:
-```
-#if !defined(AFX_RESOURCE_DLL) || defined(AFX_TARG_ENU)
-LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US
-
-STRINGTABLE
-BEGIN
-    strings
-END
-
-#endif
-```
-Since there is no API to identify the `AFX_TARG_*`, `LANG_*` or `SUBLANG_*` values from each langId from the pipeline, these are hardcoded in the script (for each language) as done in [lines 50-77 of `convert-resx-to-rc.ps1`](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/f92bd6ffd38014c228544bb8d68d0937ce4c2b6d/tools/build/convert-resx-to-rc.ps1#L50-L77). **If any other languages are added in the future, this script will have to be updated.** In order to determine what are the language codes, you can open the rc file in Resource View, right click the string table and press `Insert Copy` and choose the corresponding language. This autogenerates the required code and can be used to figure out the language codes. The files also add the resource declarations to a resource.h file, starting from 101 by default(this can be changed by an optional argument). Since the output files will be generated in `Generated Files`, any includes in these two files will require an additional `..\` and wherever resource.h is used, it will have to be included as `Generated Files\resource.h`. While adding `resource.base.h` and `ProjName.base.rc` to the vcxproj, these should be modified to not participate in the build to avoid build errors:
-```
-<None Include="Resources.resx" />
-```
-
-Some rc/resource.h files might be used in multiple projects (for example, KBM). To ensure the projects build for these cases, the build event can be added to the entire directory so that the rc files are generated before any project is built. See [Directory.Build.targets](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/main/src/modules/keyboardmanager/Directory.Build.targets) for an example.
-
-Check [this PR](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/6104) for an example for making these changes for a C++ project.
-
-### C#
-Since C# projects natively support `resx` files, the only step required here is to include all the resx files in the build. For .NET Core projects this is done automatically and the .csproj does not need to be modified. For other projects, the following line needs to be added:
-```
-<EmbeddedResource Include="Properties\Resources.*.resx" />
-```
-
-**Note:** Building with localized resources may cause a build warning `Referenced assembly 'mscorlib.dll' targets a different processor` which is a VS bug. More details can be found in [PowerToys issue #7269](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/7269).
-
-**Note:** If a project needs to be migrated from XAML resources to resx, the easiest way to convert the resources would be to change to format to `=` separates resources by either manually (by Ctrl+H on a text editor), or by a script, and then running [`resgen`](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/tools/resgen-exe-resource-file-generator#Convert) on `Developer Command Prompt for VS` to convert it to resx format.
-```
-<system:String x:Key="wox_plugin_calculator_plugin_name">Calculator</system:String>
-<system:String x:Key="wox_plugin_calculator_plugin_description">Allows to do mathematical calculations.(Try 5*3-2 in Wox)</system:String>
-<system:String x:Key="wox_plugin_calculator_not_a_number">Not a number (NaN)</system:String>
-```
-to
-```
-wox_plugin_calculator_plugin_name=Calculator
-wox_plugin_calculator_plugin_description=Allows to do mathematical calculations.(Try 5*3-2 in Wox)
-wox_plugin_calculator_not_a_number=Not a number (NaN)
-```
-After adding the resx file to the project along with the resource generator, references to the strings will have to be replaced with `Properties.Resources.resName` rather than the custom APIs. Check [this PR](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/6165) for an example of the changes required.
-
-### UWP
-UWP projects expect `resw` files rather than `resx` (the format is almost the same). Unlike other C# projects, the files are expected in the format `fullLangId\Resources.resw`. To include these files in the build, replace the following line in the csproj:
-```
-<PRIResource Include="Strings\en-us\Resources.resw" />
-```
-to
-```
-<PRIResource Include="Strings\*\Resources.resw" />
-```
-
-## Lcl Files
-Lcl files contain all the resources that are present in the English resx file, along with a translation if it has been added.
-
-For example, an entry for a resource in the lcl file looks like this:
-```
-<Item ItemId=";EditKeyboard_WindowName" ItemType="0;.resx" PsrId="211" Leaf="true">
-    <Str Cat="Text">
-        <Val><![CDATA[Remap keys]]></Val>
-        <Tgt Cat="Text" Stat="Loc" Orig="New">
-            <Val><![CDATA[Remapper des touches]]></Val>
-        </Tgt>
-    </Str>
-    <Disp Icon="Str" />
-</Item>
-```
-The `<Tgt>` element would not be present in the initial commits of the lcl files, as only the English version of the string would be present.
-
-**Note:** The CDPX Localization system has a fail-safe check on the lcl files, where if the English string value which is present inside `<Val><![CDATA[*]]></Val>` does not match the value present in the English Resources.resx file then the translated value will not be copied to the localized resx file. This is present so that obsolete translations would not be loaded when the English resource has changed, and the English string will be used rather than the obsolete translation.
-
-## Possible Issues in localization PRs (LEGO)
-Since the LEGO PRs update some of the strings in LCL files at a time, there can be multiple PRs which modify the same files, leading to merge conflicts. In most cases this would show up on GitHub as a merge conflict, but sometimes a bad git merge may occur, and the file could end up with incorrect formatting, such as two `<Tgt>` elements for a single resource. These can be fixed by ensuring the elements follow the format described in [this section](#lcl-files). To catch such errors, the build farm should be run for every LEGO PR and if any error occurs in the localization step, we should check the corresponding resx/lcl files for conflicts.
-
-## Enabling localized MSI for a new project
-For C++ and UWP projects no additional files are generated with localization that need to be added to the MSI. For C++ projects all the resources are added to the dll/exe, while for UWP projects they are added to the `resources.pri` file (which is present even for an unlocalized project). To verify if the localized resources are added to the `resources.pri` file the following steps can be done:
-- Open `Developer Command Prompt for VS`
-- After navigating to the folder containing the pri file, run the following command:
-
-        makepri.exe dump /if .\resources.pri
-- Check the contents of the `resources.pri.xml` file that is generated from the command. The last section of the file will contain the resources with the strings in all the languages:
-```
-<NamedResource name="GeneralSettings_RunningAsAdminText" uri="ms-resource://f4f787a5-f0ae-47a9-be89-5408b1dd2b47/Resources/GeneralSettings_RunningAsAdminText">
-    <Candidate qualifiers="Language-FR" type="String">
-        <Value>Running as administrator</Value>
-    </Candidate>
-    <Candidate qualifiers="Language-EN-US" isDefault="true" type="String">
-        <Value>Running as administrator</Value>
-    </Candidate>
-</NamedResource>
-```
-
-For C# projects, satellite dlls are generated when the project is built. For a project named `ProjName`, files are created in the format `langId\ProjName.resources.dll` where `langId` is in the same format as the lcl files. The satellite dlls need to be included with the MSI, but they must be added only if the solution is built from the build farm, as the localized resx files will not be present on local machines (and that could cause local builds of the installer to fail).
-This can be done by adding the directory name of the project to [Product.wxs near line 806](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/f92bd6ffd38014c228544bb8d68d0937ce4c2b6d/installer/PowerToysSetup/Product.wxs#L806) and a resource component for the project can be created in [Product.wxs near lines 845-847](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/f92bd6ffd38014c228544bb8d68d0937ce4c2b6d/installer/PowerToysSetup/Product.wxs#L845-L847) in this format:

+# MCCS Capabilities String Parser - Recursive Descent Design
+
+## Overview
+
+This document describes the recursive descent parser implementation for DDC/CI MCCS (Monitor Control Command Set) capabilities strings.
+
+### Attention!
+This document and the code implement are generated by Copilot.
+
+## Grammar Definition (BNF)
+
+```bnf
+capabilities      ::= ['('] segment* [')']
+segment           ::= identifier '(' segment_content ')'
+segment_content   ::= text | vcp_entries | hex_list
+vcp_entries       ::= vcp_entry*
+vcp_entry         ::= hex_byte [ '(' hex_list ')' ]
+hex_list          ::= hex_byte*
+hex_byte          ::= [0-9A-Fa-f]{2}
+identifier        ::= [a-z_A-Z]+
+text              ::= [^()]+
+```
+
+## Example Input
+
+```
+(prot(monitor)type(lcd)model(PD3220U)cmds(01 02 03 07)vcp(10 12 14(04 05 06) 16 60(11 12 0F) DC DF)mccs_ver(2.2)vcpname(F0(Custom Setting)))
+```
+
+## Parser Architecture
+
+### Component Hierarchy
+
+```
+MccsCapabilitiesParser (main parser)
+├── ParseCapabilities()      → MccsParseResult
+├── ParseSegment()           → ParsedSegment?
+├── ParseBalancedContent()   → string
+├── ParseIdentifier()        → ReadOnlySpan<char>
+├── ApplySegment()           → void
+│   ├── ParseHexList()       → List<byte>
+│   ├── ParseVcpEntries()    → Dictionary<byte, VcpCodeInfo>
+│   └── ParseVcpNames()      → void

+│
+├── VcpNameParser (sub-parser for vcpname() content)
+│   └── TryParseEntry()      → (byte code, string name)
+│
+└── WindowParser (sub-parser for windowN() content)
+    ├── Parse()              → WindowCapability
+    └── ParseSubSegment()    → (name, content)?
+```
+
+### Design Principles
+
+1. **ref struct for Zero Allocation**
+   - Main parser uses `ref struct` to avoid heap allocation
+   - Works with `ReadOnlySpan<char>` for efficient string slicing
+   - No intermediate string allocations during parsing
+
+2. **Recursive Descent Pattern**
+   - Each grammar rule has a corresponding parse method
+   - Methods call each other recursively for nested structures
+   - Single-character lookahead via `Peek()`
+
+3. **Error Recovery**
+   - Errors are accumulated, not thrown
+   - Parser attempts to continue after errors
+   - Returns partial results when possible
+
+4. **Sub-parsers for Specialized Content**
+   - `VcpEntryParser` for VCP code entries
+   - `VcpNameParser` for custom VCP names
+   - Each sub-parser handles its own grammar subset
+
+## Parse Methods Detail
+
+### ParseCapabilities()
+Entry point. Handles optional outer parentheses and iterates through segments.
+
+```csharp
+private MccsParseResult ParseCapabilities()
+{
+    // Handle optional outer parens
+    // while (!IsAtEnd()) { ParseSegment() }
+    // Return result with accumulated errors
+}
+```
+
+### ParseSegment()
+Parses a single `identifier(content)` segment.
+
+```csharp
+private ParsedSegment? ParseSegment()
+{
+    // 1. ParseIdentifier()
+    // 2. Expect '('
+    // 3. ParseBalancedContent()
+    // 4. Expect ')'
+}
+```
+
+### ParseBalancedContent()
+Extracts content between balanced parentheses, handling nested parens.
+
+```csharp
+private string ParseBalancedContent()
+{
+    int depth = 1;
+    while (depth > 0) {
+        if (char == '(') depth++;
+        if (char == ')') depth--;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### ParseVcpEntries()
+Delegates to `VcpEntryParser` for the specialized VCP entry grammar.
+
+```csharp
+vcp_entry ::= hex_byte [ '(' hex_list ')' ]
+
+Examples:
+- "10"           → code=0x10, values=[]
+- "14(04 05 06)" → code=0x14, values=[4, 5, 6]
+- "60(11 12 0F)" → code=0x60, values=[0x11, 0x12, 0x0F]
+```
+
+## Comparison with Other Approaches
+
+| Approach | Pros | Cons |
+|----------|------|------|
+| **Recursive Descent** (this) | Clear structure, handles nesting, extensible | More code |
+| **Regex** (DDCSharp) | Concise | Hard to debug, limited nesting |
+| **Mixed** (original) | Pragmatic | Inconsistent, hard to maintain |
+
+## Performance Characteristics
+
+- **Time Complexity**: O(n) where n = input length
+- **Space Complexity**: O(1) for parsing + O(m) for output where m = number of VCP codes
+- **Allocations**: Minimal - only for output structures
+
+## Supported Segments
+
+| Segment | Description | Parser |
+|---------|-------------|--------|
+| `prot(...)` | Protocol type | Direct assignment |
+| `type(...)` | Display type (lcd/crt) | Direct assignment |
+| `model(...)` | Model name | Direct assignment |
+| `cmds(...)` | Supported commands | ParseHexList |
+| `vcp(...)` | VCP code entries | VcpEntryParser |
+| `mccs_ver(...)` | MCCS version | Direct assignment |
+| `vcpname(...)` | Custom VCP names | VcpNameParser |
+| `windowN(...)` | PIP/PBP window capabilities | WindowParser |
+
+### Window Segment Format
+
+The `windowN` segment (where N is 1, 2, 3, etc.) describes PIP/PBP window capabilities:
+
+```
+window1(type(PIP) area(25 25 1895 1175) max(640 480) min(10 10) window(10))
+```
+
+| Sub-field | Format | Description |
+|-----------|--------|-------------|
+| `type` | `type(PIP)` or `type(PBP)` | Window type (Picture-in-Picture or Picture-by-Picture) |
+| `area` | `area(x1 y1 x2 y2)` | Window area coordinates in pixels |
+| `max` | `max(width height)` | Maximum window dimensions |
+| `min` | `min(width height)` | Minimum window dimensions |
+| `window` | `window(id)` | Window identifier |
+
+All sub-fields are optional; missing fields default to zero values.
+
+## Error Handling
+
+```csharp
+public readonly struct ParseError
+{
+    public int Position { get; }    // Character position
+    public string Message { get; }  // Human-readable error
+}
+
+public sealed class MccsParseResult
+{
+    public VcpCapabilities Capabilities { get; }
+    public IReadOnlyList<ParseError> Errors { get; }
+    public bool HasErrors => Errors.Count > 0;
+    public bool IsValid => !HasErrors && Capabilities.SupportedVcpCodes.Count > 0;
+}
+```
+
+## Usage Example
+
+```csharp
+// Parse capabilities string
+var result = MccsCapabilitiesParser.Parse(capabilitiesString);
+
+if (result.IsValid)
+{
+    var caps = result.Capabilities;
+    Console.WriteLine($"Model: {caps.Model}");
+    Console.WriteLine($"MCCS Version: {caps.MccsVersion}");
+    Console.WriteLine($"VCP Codes: {caps.SupportedVcpCodes.Count}");
+}
+
+if (result.HasErrors)
+{
+    foreach (var error in result.Errors)
+    {
+        Console.WriteLine($"Parse error at {error.Position}: {error.Message}");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Edge Cases Handled
+
+1. **Missing outer parentheses** (Apple Cinema Display)
+2. **No spaces between hex bytes** (`010203` vs `01 02 03`)
+3. **Nested parentheses** in VCP values
+4. **Unknown segments** (logged but not fatal)
+5. **Malformed input** (partial results returned)

-UI Validation:
-
-  - [ ] In Remap keys, add and remove rows to validate those buttons. While the blank rows are present, pressing the OK button should result in a warning dialog that some mappings are invalid.
-  - [ ] Using only the Type buttons, for both the remap windows, try adding keys/shortcuts in all the columns. The right-side column in both windows should accept both keys and shortcuts, while the left-side column will accept only keys or only shortcuts for Remap keys and Remap shortcuts respectively. Validate that the Hold Enter and Esc accessibility features work as expected.
-  - [ ] Using the drop downs try to add key to key, key to shortcut, shortcut to key and shortcut to shortcut remapping and ensure that you are able to select remapping both by using mouse and by keyboard navigation.
-  - [ ] Validate that remapping can be saved by pressing the OK button and re-opening the windows loads existing remapping.
-
-Remapping Validation:
-
-For all the remapping below, try pressing and releasing the remapped key/shortcut and pressing and holding it. Try different behaviors like releasing the modifier key before the action key and vice versa.
-  - [ ] Test key to key remapping
-    - A->B
-    - Ctrl->A
-    - A->Ctrl
-    - Win->B (make sure Start menu doesn't appear accidentally)
-    - B->Win (make sure Start menu doesn't appear accidentally)
-    - A->Disable
-    - Win->Disable
-  - [ ] Test key to shortcut remapping
-    - A->Ctrl+V
-    - B->Win+A
-  - [ ] Test shortcut to shortcut remapping
-    - Ctrl+A->Ctrl+V
-    - Win+A->Ctrl+V
-    - Ctrl+V->Win+A
-    - Win+A->Win+F
-  - [ ] Test shortcut to key remapping
-    - Ctrl+A->B
-    - Ctrl+A->Win
-    - Win+A->B
-  * Test app-specific remaps

-  - [x] Validate that remapping can be saved by pressing the OK button and re-opening the windows loads existing remapping.
-
-Remapping Validation:
-
-For all the remapping below, try pressing and releasing the remapped key/shortcut and pressing and holding it. Try different behaviors like releasing the modifier key before the action key and vice versa.
-  - [x] Test key to key remapping
-    - A->B
-    - Ctrl->A
-    - A->Ctrl
-    - Win->B (make sure Start menu doesn't appear accidentally)
