+Your task has two phases:
+1. Identify all relevant files that need to be modified or referenced
+2. Make the necessary changes to implement the requested feature or fix
+
+For phase 1 (Context Discovery):
+- Perform a comprehensive analysis to identify ALL files that might be relevant
+- Consider not just files that need direct modification, but also:
+  * Files containing related classes, interfaces, or types
+  * Files with dependent functionality
+  * Configuration files that might affect the behavior
+  * Test files that will need to be updated
+- Return the *complete* list of files which will need to be modified or referenced
+- Explain why each file is needed, including names of key classes/functions/methods/variables
+- Be sure to include or omit the names of files already added to the chat, based on whether they are actually needed or not
+- Think about imports, inheritance hierarchies, and dependency relationships
+
+For phase 2 (Implementation):
+- Implement the requested changes in the identified files
+- Follow the codebase's style and conventions
+- Ensure your changes are complete and functional
+- Consider edge cases and error handling
+- Update any related tests
+- Explain the changes you've made and why they address the user's request
+
+The user will use every file you mention, regardless of your commentary.
+So *ONLY* mention the names of relevant files.
+If a file is not relevant DO NOT mention it.

+Remember to consider:
+- Class hierarchies and inheritance relationships
+- Interface implementations
+- Import dependencies
+- Configuration settings
+- Related test files
