+
+- **Who is affected:** fresh consumer installs — the settings template now
+  ships `projection.rule_workspaces` filled with every consumer workspace, so
+  the 16 exclusively-maintainer specification rules (plus the recorded
+  `source-of-truth.md` compat exclusion) no longer arrive: 103 → 88 rules,
+  −9,880 cl100k tokens (−13.1%) per install. All domain safety floors and
+  domain rules keep shipping; kernel rules always ship.
+- **Existing installs:** unchanged until you run `agent-config sync` /
+  re-install (settings sync preserves your current value; fill the list to
+  opt in). The first session after opting in rebuilds the KV-cache prefix
+  once (1.25–2× write cost, one session only).
+- **Quality evidence:** deterministic set-inclusion verification
+  (`src/scripts/check_consumer_scope_flip.ts` →
+  `internal/bench/reports/2026-07-13-consumer-scoped-default-flip.json`):
+  only exclusively-maintainer rules drop; zero golden-set-exercised consumer
+  rules affected (90/90 labelled tasks, coverage 86/86).
+- **Rollback:** set `projection.rule_workspaces: []` (= legacy-all).

 lossy re-summarization of the user's own constraints is the exact failure this
 template prevents. Everything else (Done / Key decisions) stays concise.
 
+### 2b. File-artifact mode — `HANDOFF.md` (optional, host-neutral)
+
+On `/agent-handoff --file` (or when a workflow skill's phase boundary asks
+for a standing handoff), ALSO write the contract to
+`agents/runtime/state/HANDOFF.md` (gitignored runtime state — plain
+Markdown, no host API). Required fields, in order:
+
+```
+# HANDOFF
+## Mode
+{current workflow mode/phase, e.g. Implement (TDD)}
+## Contract received
+{what the previous phase handed over}
+## Contract owed
+{what the current phase must produce before yielding}
+## Decisions
+- {decisions taken, with one-line rationale}
+## Open questions
+- {unresolved items the next session must not silently drop}
+## Next command
+{the single command or step to run first on resume}
+```
+
+**Resume rule:** a workflow skill's step 0 checks for this file and resumes
+from its contract (mode-inference table) instead of re-deriving state; a
+long phase refreshes the file before yielding. Validated by
+`lint_handoffs.ts` when present — a missing required field is red.
+
+**Critical-planning-file safety protocol** (applies to HANDOFF.md and agent
+roadmap edits): read the current file FIRST; take a timestamped backup copy
+next to it (`HANDOFF.md.<ts>.bak`) before overwrite; duplicate-check before
+appending (never double-append a section); preserve the section structure;
+post-verify the write by re-reading the required fields.
