+
+**Best For:**

+- Pattern consistency requirements
+
+---
+
+## MODE-03: Rapid MVP Mode
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Speed > perfection
+- Avoid overengineering
+- Minimal viable features only
+- Technical debt acceptable (documented)
+
+**Workflow:**
+```
+MVP Requirements
+    ↓
+Architect Agent: Minimal architecture (skip complex patterns)
+    ↓
+Skill Activation: 4 skills (core stack only)
+    ↓
+Backend/Frontend Agents: Fast implementation
+    ↓
+QA Agent: Smoke tests + critical path only
+    ↓
+DevOps Agent: Basic deployment (skip monitoring)
+    ↓
+Context Manager: Minimal documentation + tech debt log
+```
+
+**Configuration:**
+| Setting | Value |
+|---------|-------|
+| Ceremony | Minimal |
+| Skill Limit | 4 skills |
+| Gates | 1, 4 (only requirements + security) |
+| Documentation | Minimal |
+| Testing | Smoke-only |
+
+**Guardrails:**
+- Technical debt must be logged
+- Minimal documentation acceptable
+- Smoke tests only
+
+**Trade-offs:**
+- ✅ Fast delivery
+- ⚠️ Technical debt created (must be documented)
+- ⚠️ Limited test coverage
+- ⚠️ Minimal documentation
+
+**Best For:**
+- Investor demos
+- POCs
+- Tight deadline projects
+- MVP launches
+
+---
+
+## MODE-04: Scale-up Mode
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Performance critical
+- Scalability patterns required
+- Distributed systems considerations
+- Monitoring and alerting essential
+
+**Workflow:**
+```
+Scale Requirement
+    ↓
+Architect Agent: Scalability review (bottleneck analysis)
+    ↓
+Skill Activation: 6 skills (scalability + performance + monitoring)
+    ↓
+Backend/Frontend Agents: Performance-optimized implementation
+    ↓
+QA Agent: Load tests + performance benchmarks
+    ↓
+DevOps Agent: Auto-scaling + monitoring + alerting
+    ↓
+Context Manager: Performance documentation
+```
+
+**Configuration:**
+| Setting | Value |
+|---------|-------|
+| Ceremony | Full |
+| Skill Limit | 6 skills |
+| Gates | All 7 gates |
+| Documentation | Complete |
+| Testing | Full + load |
+
+**Guardrails:**
+- Performance budget required
+- Load testing required
+- Monitoring must be configured
+
+**Focus Areas:**
+- Database query optimization
+- Caching strategy
+- Horizontal scaling
+- Rate limiting
+- Monitoring dashboards
+
+**Best For:**
+- High-traffic applications
+- Performance optimization
+- Scaling requirements
+- Growth preparation
+
+---
+
+## MODE-05: Maintenance Mode
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Stability > new features
+- Bug fixes and minor improvements
+- No breaking changes
+- Minimal risk changes
+
+**Workflow:**
+```
+Bug Report / Minor Request
+    ↓
+Context Manager: Impact analysis
+    ↓
+Architect Agent: Risk assessment (only for significant changes)
+    ↓
+Skill Activation: 5 skills (stability + testing + rollback)
+    ↓
+Backend/Frontend Agents: Minimal fix
+    ↓
+QA Agent: Regression tests

+## Mode Comparison
+
+| Mode | Skill Limit | Gates | Documentation | Testing | Ceremony |
+|------|-------------|-------|---------------|---------|----------|
+| Greenfield | 7 | All | Complete | Full coverage | Full |
+| Existing | 6 | 1-5 | Standard | Regression + new | Standard |

+| Scale-up | 6 | All | Complete | Full + load | Full |
+| Maintenance | 5 | 1, 3, 4, 5 | Minimal | Regression | Minimal |
+

+
+## Mode Detection
+
+Modes are detected from project context signals:
+
+| Mode | Signals |
+|------|---------|
+| Greenfield | no-existing-codebase, new-project, full-freedom |
+| Existing | has-codebase, incremental-change, pattern-consistency-needed |
+| Rapid MVP | deadline-critical, poc, minimal-features, team-size-small |
+| Scale-up | high-traffic, performance-issue, scaling-requirement |
+| Maintenance | stable-product, bug-fix, minor-improvement, no-breaking-changes |
+
+---
+
+## Integration with Chief Strategist
+
+The Chief Strategist agent integrates mode detection and routing:
+
+1. **Detect mode** from project context at task intake
+2. **Route tasks** to appropriate workflow based on mode
+3. **Apply mode-specific skill limits**
+4. **Apply mode-specific gate requirements**
+5. **Log mode decisions** for audit trail
+
+```javascript
+const mode = detectMode(projectContext);
+const workflow = getWorkflow(mode);
+
+// Apply mode context to task
+const taskWithContext = applyModeContext(task, mode);
+
+// Route to appropriate workflow
+routeToWorkflow(taskWithContext, workflow);
+```
