+```
+
+### Step 2: Add Completion Signals (Recommended)
+
+**Why**: Enables intelligent workflow orchestration.
+
+```yaml
+# Add to spec section
+spec:
+  completion:
+    default_signal: complete
+    signals:
+      - signal: continue
+        condition: "iteration_count < max_iterations"
+      - signal: blocked
+        condition: "confidence < 0.5"
+    max_iterations: 10
+```
+
+**Impact**: Orchestrators can make intelligent decisions about workflow progression.
+
+---
+

+# OSSA v0.3.5: The Next OpenAPI for Software Agents
+
+**Status**: Design Phase  
+**Target Release**: Q2 2026  
+**Vision**: The definitive specification for production-ready software agents
+
+---
+
+## WHAT IS OSSA v0.3.5?
+
+OSSA (Open Standard for Scalable Agents) v0.3.5 transforms from a basic agent manifest standard into **the definitive OpenAPI for Software Agents**—the specification that every agent framework, platform, and tool will adopt.
+
+Just as OpenAPI revolutionized REST APIs, OSSA v0.3.5 revolutionizes software agents.
+
+---
+
+## KEY INNOVATIONS
+
+### 1. Completion Signals 🎯
+
+**Problem**: Agents need standardized ways to signal task completion status.

+**Solution**: Five standardized signals (`continue`, `complete`, `blocked`, `escalate`, `checkpoint`) enable intelligent workflow orchestration.
+
+```yaml
+completion:
+  default_signal: complete
+  signals:
+    - signal: continue
+      condition: "iteration_count < max_iterations"
+    - signal: blocked
+      condition: "confidence < 0.5"
+```
+
+**Impact**: Orchestrators can make intelligent decisions about workflow progression without custom logic.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Session Checkpointing 💾
+
+**Problem**: Agents need resilient state management to survive interruptions.

+  interval: iteration
+  interval_value: 5
+  storage:
+    backend: agent-brain
+```
+
+**Impact**: Agents can pause/resume, reducing costs and enabling fault tolerance.
+
+---
+
+### 3. Mixture of Experts (MoE) 🧠
+
+**Problem**: Agents should control expert model selection, not infrastructure.
+
+**Solution**: Agent-controlled expert registry with intelligent routing.
+
+```yaml
+experts:
+  registry:
+    - id: reasoning-expert
+      model: claude-opus-4-5-20251101
+      specializations: [complex_reasoning, planning]
+      cost_tier: premium
+    - id: speed-expert
+      model: gemini-2.0-flash
+      specializations: [quick_responses]
+      cost_tier: economy
+  selection_strategy: agent_controlled
+```
+
+**Impact**: 30% cost reduction via intelligent expert selection, 40% improvement in task quality.
+
+---
+
+### 4. BAT Framework 🎯
+
+**Problem**: Agents need systematic technology selection.
+
+**Solution**: Best Available Technology framework with multi-dimensional selection criteria.
+
+```yaml
+bat:
+  selection_criteria:

+
+**Solution**: Measure of Effectiveness metrics with primary, secondary, and operational categories.
+
+```yaml
+moe:
+  primary:
+    metric: review_accuracy
+    target: 0.95
+  secondary:
+    - metric: review_latency_p95
+      target: 600
+  operational:
+    - metric: uptime
+      target: 0.999
+```
+
+**Impact**: Data-driven agent improvement and performance tracking.
+
+---
+
+### 6. Flow Kind Specification 🔄
+
+**Problem**: OSSA needs native flow-based orchestration support.
+
+**Solution**: Native `Flow` kind with state machines, transitions, and adaptors.
+
+```yaml
