+### Minor Changes
+
+- 4d64e2a: Add workflow discipline guidance to agents, workflows, and plans artifact types.
+
+  New `buildWorkflowDisciplineGuidance()` section in guidelines output covers plan-first default, subagent strategy, self-improvement loops, verification gates, demand elegance, and autonomous problem solving — inspired by Boris Cherny's Claude Code team workflow patterns.
+
+  Prompt packs for agents, workflows, and plans now include workflow discipline bullets. README resources updated with the source reference.
