Research direction
Start by reviewing the WriteTodo experiments in issue #48 and the referenced codebase-investigator.ts precedent. Compare the context and token trade-offs of tool calls versus an in-memory scratchpad, then document a recommendation and the implementation scope needed to adopt it.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
We did run some experiments with the WriteTodo tool (https://github.com/gemini-cli-extensions/security/issues/48), but there is also some precedent from the Gemini CLI Code Investigator sub-agent (https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/packages/core/src/agents/codebase-investigator.ts) to use just an in-memory scratchpad and avoid all those tool calls to pollute the context and spend extra tokens.
