feat: add ExternalScout and optimize ContextScout with research-backed patterns (#128)
* feat: add ExternalScout and optimize ContextScout with research-backed patterns

## New Features

### ExternalScout Subagent (v2.0.0)
- Fetches live, version-specific documentation for external libraries via Context7 API
- Supports 18+ libraries: Drizzle, Better Auth, Next.js, TanStack, Cloudflare Workers, AWS Lambda, Vercel, Shadcn/ui, Radix UI, Tailwind CSS, Zustand, Jotai, Zod, React Hook Form, Vitest, Playwright
- Lazy-loads query patterns for specific libraries only
- Filters and formats results by relevance (Critical → High → Medium)
- Fallback to official docs via webfetch
- 42% token reduction via research-backed optimization
- Added to registry with skill:context7 dependency

### Context7 Skill
- Registered in system for external documentation fetching
- Library registry with 18+ supported libraries
- Query optimization patterns per library
- Navigation guide and README

## Optimizations

### ContextScout v5.1.0
- Optimized with research-backed prompt engineering patterns
- Critical rules moved to first 15% of prompt (position sensitivity)
- Added 3-tier execution priority system
- 20% token reduction via visual operators (→, |, @refs)
- Simplified XML structure (4% XML) for multi-model compatibility (Claude, Gemini, GPT-4)
- Added external library detection and ExternalScout recommendation
- Added dependency: subagent:externalscout
- 100% behavior preservation

### ExternalScout v2.0.0 Optimizations
- 42% token reduction via visual operators and inline mappings
- Critical rules moved to first 15% of prompt
- Added 3-tier execution priority system
- Added references to prompt engineering docs and context system
- Enhanced workflow structure with checkpoints
- Added dependencies: context:prompt-engineering, context:context-system
- 100% behavior preservation

## Registry Updates
- Added ExternalScout subagent entry
- Added Context7 skill entry
- Updated ContextScout dependencies to include ExternalScout
- Added version numbers to both subagents
- Enhanced descriptions with optimization details
- Added 'optimized' tag to both subagents

## Files Added
- .opencode/agent/subagents/core/externalscout.md

External Library Registry

Purpose

This file lists external libraries/frameworks that should use ExternalScout (via Context7) for live documentation instead of relying on potentially outdated training data.

When to Use This

ContextScout checks this list when:

  1. User asks about a library/framework
  2. No internal context exists in .opencode/context/development/frameworks/
  3. Query matches a library name below

Action: Recommend ExternalScout subagent

Detection Patterns

ContextScout and ExternalScout should match queries containing:

  • Library name (case-insensitive)
  • Common variations (e.g., "next.js" vs "nextjs")
  • Package names (e.g., "@tanstack/react-query")

Examples:

  • "How do I use Drizzle with PostgreSQL?" → Match: Drizzle ORM
  • "Show me Next.js App Router setup" → Match: Next.js
  • "TanStack Query with Server Components" → Match: TanStack Query
  • "Better Auth integration" → Match: Better Auth

Adding New Libraries

To add a new library:

  1. Add entry under appropriate category
  2. Include: Name, aliases, docs link, Context7 command, common topics
  3. (Optional) Add query optimization patterns
  4. Update ExternalScout if needed (usually automatic)

Template:

#### Library Name
- **Aliases**: `alias1`, `alias2`, `package-name`
- **Docs**: https://example.com/docs
- **Context7**: `use context7 for library-name`
- **Common topics**: topic1, topic2, topic3

Usage by ExternalScout

ExternalScout uses this file to:

  1. Detect which library the user is asking about
  2. Load query optimization patterns for that library
  3. Build optimized Context7 queries
  4. Fetch live documentation
  5. Return filtered, relevant results
